On February 3, Uranus ends its final retrograde in Taurus and stations direct at 27 degrees. The planet of disruption, technology, revolution and systemic change is completing its last pause in a sign it has occupied since 2018. This moment deserves close attention.

Looking back nearly 300 years, a pattern emerges. Uranus stationed direct in Taurus on December 1, 1774, February 2, 1858, and February 3, 1942 before leaving the sign. Each moment followed prolonged stress on material systems. Debate had run its course. What remained was implementation. Performance stopped working.

In 1774, economic protest hardened into action. Colonists had challenged British taxation and trade policy for over a decade. By December 1, organized boycotts of British goods were enforced. Soon after, patriots seized gunpowder and military supplies. The argument was finished. Material enforcement began.

In 1858, instability extended across the United States, Britain, France, and Europe. Labor, empire, slavery, and national identity moved from theory into pressure. What followed in 1861 was no surprise.

The 1941 to 1942 Uranus cycle was more complex. Uranus stationed direct in Taurus at the end of January in 1941 as the United States maintained economic neutrality while supporting Allied forces. In August, Uranus entered Gemini, then stationed retrograde in September, returning to Taurus in October. By then the world was already at war. The United States remained officially unengaged until December 7, when the attack on Pearl Harbor forced entry into World War II.

Across these moments, Taurus themes of money, labor, land, trade, and security reached a threshold where delay was no longer possible. Material reality demanded confrontation before Uranus moved into Gemini.

In our own time, Uranus first entered Gemini on July 7, 2025, then stationed retrograde on September 7 and returned to Taurus on October 9. On February 3, 2026, it stations direct and now heads back toward Gemini on April 25.

During its brief Gemini passage last year, information systems showed strain. Speed overtook verification. Narrative control became power. Sorting truth from fabrication grew harder, especially as AI content accelerated(and don’t forget JumboTron moment).  That pattern echoes 1858, when the transatlantic telegraph compressed communication just before Neptune entered Aries and Uranus fully entered Gemini at the start of the Civil War. * Technology did not cause conflict, but it made containment impossible.

Recent events such as ICE raids in Minneapolis and widespread phone footage raise questions. How might history have looked if enslaved people, Union soldiers, or Confederate soldiers had carried cameras and instant communication? Would it resemble 2026?  

During the American Revolution, Pluto stood at the end of Capricorn and the start of Aquarius. Pluto did not occupy those signs during the Civil War or World War II. However, in 2026, Pluto is in Aquarius again. That makes the 1770s a closer parallel to our current Uranus in Gemini era.  

Uranus will remain in Gemini for seven years. Technology and communication will surge. Innovation and rebellion will be visible. Neighborhoods, networks, and sibling relationships will activate, sometimes together and sometimes in opposition.

Watch the space between now and April 25. Themes emerging now will intensify once Uranus settles into Gemini.

(*) Neptune has also entered Aries for the first time in 165 years, echoing the Civil War era. The overlap matters.
