A Powerful Truth
Stardrops August 3 2025
Each planet has a unique role in our solar system, emanating a particular frequency which impacts the activities of our world. They could be described as each having their own purpose and personality. Uranus holds the power to influence innovation and change in our lives. It will push us beyond our old ways. It can refresh and bring us out of the stagnant into the new. What we shine the light upon, will reveal its truth and that is Uranus. Truth, transparency, change, advancement and disruption for the sake of transforming a situation. Uranus governs the sign Aquarius, and so has many of the characteristics of that sign. It activates change in our lives.
It inspires upgrading anything we desire to fix or gain a stronger level of efficiency, love, helpfulness and positive outcomes for ourselves or others who we care about, but it can also instigate chaos, disrupt situations and instigate a revolution, in thought, belief or an actual revolution. Uranus funnels this dynamic power through one of the twelve zodiac signs as it travels through each sign approximately every seven to eight years. It moves, sign by sign, activating a supercharge of the natural qualities of that sign in order to heighten or increase that zodiac signs’ potential. As it works through that sign, an extraordinary acceleration of certain purpose that zodiac sign contains can be suddenly incorporated into humanity.
Sometimes Uranus will move into a similar degree in the heavens as another planet – we say, Uranus is aspecting so and so….and then a relationship with the other planet is created, so now we have two influences upon humanity acting at the same time.
Uranus has been moving through the sign of Taurus since 2018, and in 2025 it has reached the end of that cycle, and is now just starting to move into Gemini. This new period began July 7 2025 for the first time in 84 years, and causes a profound acceleration in the activities of Gemini, which is mainly about, information. Our thinking will be different – you’ll still be you! But you will think about things in a different way. You could begin questioning, “Why am I limiting myself?
Personally, you might question why you’re still doing things this way or that way, and desiring to advance yourself. We have covered several descriptions of Uranus in Gemini, and for more information, you can go HERE>
Uranus is not only transforming our thinking because of its movement into Gemini, it is in a powerful aspect called a trine to Pluto, which increases its potency for releasing not only greater change within humanity’s thought processes, but anchors it powerfully for transforming our individual way of life permanently. It also is in an aspect called a sextile to Neptune, increasing opportunity for merging our desire for change with the faith in the invisible. And, it sextiles Saturn, causing functional common sense plans, setting up a new routine, a new lifestyle or structure, inspiring practical action taken immediately. Saturn opens the door for Uranus to find a permanent home in the physical. Workable progressive systems, new rules or standards within our lives, our communities, political activities.
Saturn brings it into a pragmatic orderly and consistent business, bringing about a new structure, a new functional thing into reality. Saturn crystalizes the ideas of Uranus, into the physical for successful operation, achieving important goals. (A sextile is a 60 degree angle between to planets, supporting any opportunity for sharing, friendship and collaboration. It is a give and take energy involving exchange of ideas, insights in order to grow, gain knowledge, increase trust and friendship with others.)
There are specific dates for each one of these Uranus aspects to the more powerful planets above and you can explore each one of these major planetary relationships, HERE… but just know, from June 2025 – through 2028 at least, we are in a magical cycle for greater possibilities as Uranus sextiles Neptune, Saturn and trines Pluto. We are living in a high potential for advancement in so many ways during these years and you won’t want to let this period go by without at least trying to make the change you desire to see in your world!
The way things are run on our planet will be challenged, questioned. The way you live and run your own life will change. People at every level are demanding transparency and progress. Uranus is the higher octave of Mercury. Mercury rules over communication, information and mind, and Uranus goes beyond, to a more advanced truth and transparency, efficiency, higher consciousness and clairvoyance
In the sign Gemini, which by the way is governed naturally by the planet Mercury, all forms of information, facts, logistics, science, technology, the news, reporting, intelligence will be upgraded. The fascinating subject of Neuroplasticity will become the new level of desired mastery.
Uranus upgrades the level of conversation on the planet to a higher, deeper and honest forthright discussion.
Uranus in Gemini stimulates a greater objectivity with ourselves, desiring to change our troubling situations, breaking old molds, pushing ourselves to advance in some way. As it makes a sextile to Neptune, August – September 5, peaking August 28, this cycle helps us reach a successful breakthrough with something idealistic, something vital and important you may need to bring about.
Uranus will make important connections with Pluto, Neptune, Saturn which are called outer planets and have a stronger pull on our lives than the faster moving planets. August 28 Uranus and Neptune will make an exact sextile to Neptune. Uranus is intellectually higher mental capacity involving advanced thinking, innovative comprehension of things and it is in a compatible relationship with Neptune, exchanging helpful open-hearted collaboration between science and spirituality, love and advanced thinking. Neptune inspires divine love, as it is the higher octave of Venus. It enhances our intuition, spiritual longings, divine love and compassion.
With these two planets connecting, we have an opportunity to trust something higher and increase faith in the invisible world we cannot see with our physical eyes. It can draw upon the advanced qualities of quantum physics, where the combined force of Uranus, instigating a greater awareness of what you need for any given situation you are concerned about or desire change, combined with Neptune’s capacity for emotional trust and faith in the invisible, brings your desired goal closer into the physical world. It’s like a supercharge of the atomic world with your feelings and the power of your inner light, trusting in the Divine bringing it into the physical world, you can see how this cycle has no limit transforming the world around us. It is the perfect recipe for planetary energies to harness for our own Divine use.
Here are the dates when it is supercharged with potential for you:
August 2 – December 17, 2025, with the strongest exact connection on August 28 and November 20.
You would definitely want to utilize this cycle for your alchemical experiment for your life at this time.
We have no choice but to accelerate – so if you sense you might be in a state of paralysis, critical and negative, Uranus is planting seeds of change within you. We are all working hard on this new expectation of existence.
The next period of immense power of this cycle of Uranus sextile Neptune will be:
June 24, 2026 – August 8 2026
Returns, December 21, 2026 – February 13, 2027
Returns May 7 2027 – June 28, 2027
Returns February 18 2028 – May 12, 2028
There are several books and videos on this subject, but my favorites are: E-Squared by Pam Grout, Alchemy – Saint Germain – Neville Goddards’ books; The Magic Presence, Unveiled Mysteries and The I AM Discourses, book 1, II, III by Godfre Ray King.
The premise is there is a magical intelligence, all powerful inherent within each of us, which can be intensely enhanced by the love we feel for IT. By focusing upon that one true Source while holding firm belief this or that issue will be resolved, it brings the desired outcome into existence, whatever it is. It is the Key to moving into this higher world of Divine Powers.
Other Planetary Cycles
August 2 Mars at 27* Virgo inconjunct Chiron at 27* Aries Today might require an adjustment to settle something, confront or correct something. You might have had this issue on your mind for a while, but today is the day it needs to be handled.
August 4 Sun semi-sextile Jupiter A positive day for inspiring the people around us, to be encouraging, happy, responsive to their situation and provide encouragement, generosity.
August 4 – 5 Mercury semi-sextile Venus A nice day for beauty, important purchases, upgrading our lives in little ways. It is a day for casual socializing, reaching out to others. Being connected with others who think like you, is healing, stimulating. The thought of what could I do today that would build a bridge of heart between myself and others? Or, increase the helpful connections within this family, or group or community?
August 6 Mars leaves Virgo and moves into Libra. With Mars leaving Virgo, the energy changes from a drive for service, attention to details, accuracy, perfecting and filtering, analyzing…. having everything precise, perfect and the best choice or course of action….. to one of caring more about people, relationships, socializing and bringing more to the table with our desire to connect. Our desire for interactions with others. Whether personal, professional, clients, family, more interaction with people is better now. This cycle will be going on up to September 21st.
August 8 – 12th – Mercury at 4* Leo stationary direct oppose Pluto at 2* Aquarius. This energy coming from Mercury leaving retrograde on August 11 – stationary – is hinting towards a challenging interaction with another – however, it is not exact.. Mercury will not go backwards to 2* Leo, it stops at 4* and then turns forward – Pluto is sitting at 2* Aquarius. So there’s almost 2 degree difference, which is just enough to soften its impact. It is not an exact aspect (opposition).
What we can expect would be possibly a difficult action we need to take, or talk about, or find out about – and handle it. It brings an issue, a confrontation on the table, but it can be handled gently – graciously. Drive carefully, and for many of us, brace ourselves for some form of disappointment with another – remember! It could expose a truth about another’s secret feelings, agendas or hidden activities.
Aug 3 – 17 Mercury retro/direct 6* Leo 4-7* Leo sextile Mars at 0-7* Libra
While we handle the above energy, we also have opportunity to bring out truth, openness in conversation, and derive a greater realization of others’ ideas, motives or purpose. A harmonious time for sharing fun, casual time together and productive work meetings with good outcomes. The air is cleared, and a positive conclusion can be made.
August 6 – 11 Mars at 1 – 3* Libra, trine Uranus at 1* Gemini, trine Pluto at 2* Aquarius forming a grand trine. Exact August 7 – 10
A positive time for energized physical activities – inspiration to engage in a robust program for work, physical transformation of self or your environment. Your ambitions can be channeled into constructive activities with great results!
August 7-9 Mars oppose Neptune and Saturn Watch for any type of confusion, scrambled feelings or situations not making any sense during these dates. There may be lies, deception, or in a lesser way – any situation where reality, facts, and addressing issues honestly and responsibility is a problem. Mars is an assertive energy challenging dysfunctions and expecting clarity and explanations from sloppy, deceptive or deluded thinking and activities now. Mars in Libra demands reality, honesty and accountability – If things don’t add up or make sense, someone is creating a mist of distractions and Mars drives its point home to bring a balance back into the situation.
August 9 – 12 Venus conjoin Jupiter at 14* Cancer A beautiful few days of enhanced heart and love expression. Concentration upon beauty, music, art, design, or even spending quality time with good friends, loved ones, is positive. A good time for increasing income – enhancing business, launching new programs or taking action on any inspiring ideas. It can be a great time for important purchases. One tends to feel generous and optimistic during Venus/Jupiter connections.
August 14 Venus sextile Mars, trine Node. Another nice cycle for collaboration, meetings, making a positive impression, getting your priorities known to others, reaching positive agreements. Finances, income, employment opportunities – it’s a good time for any conversation where you desire to have positive results from the meeting. Venus emphasizes a feeling of trust, openness, sharing ideas and reaching out to bring good will, love, friendship and appreciation to others, and they towards you. It is the heart and feelings which is so nicely open and enhanced now.
August 17 Mercury at 7* Leo sextile Mars at 7* Libra This day is more mental, information shared in order to come to a mutually beneficial conclusion. If you need to learn anything, get a situation straightened out, discuss something which requires a decision or conclusion, paperwork, documents signed, an issue voted upon, this is the day.
The Full Moon in Aquarius
August 9, 2025
We are all moving quickly up to a new start with regards to making a change. The Full Moon in Aquarius, is matching the beginning of this post’s description of the planet Uranus moving into Gemini and sextile Neptune. Why? Uranus rules Aquarius, Uranus is making a monumental acceleration in our minds, and the full moon always brings a project, an experience to the fullness of its culmination. So in Aquarius, our new inspirations, experiments with work, personal adventures, new insights inspiring change is coming to a head this August 9.
August 9 could be seen as the date when it all makes sense, what you have been thinking about, what new ideas are prompting change within and around your life, it’s coming to a head on the 9th to fully integrate these directions into our life.
This week of August 9 – 12th is also the culmination of Mercury leaving its retrograde. It’ is like another culmination of awareness from all of July’s hard work, processing something. It is mentally the time when what journey Mercury had us on in Leo all July, has also come to an integrated culmination of acceptance and completion of an experience, a learning cycle for each one of us, on the same time frame….August 9 -12th. So Mercury leaves retrograde August 11, and the Full Moon is August 9, so we could feel these two moments in space, are blending together for an assimilation of a new growth we finally get, we understand, we integrate it into our life now, and move forward, a bit different than where we were prior – let’s say, before July .
The Full Moon is in a mild YOD…
The focus is upon change and accepting the inevitable – something out of our control is calling us to go up and accept we have to alter our state in some way . What way do you feel you are being asked to go up – to accelerate and improve your way of living? It is inconjunct (150 degree aspect causing incongruency and inconvenience) to Jupiter on the bottom left (see chart above) and inconjunct the South Node on the bottom right.
So, in spite of our (South Node in Virgo) past pattern of service, routine, and what has sustained our mental health stability, the Full Moon is revealing to us, we must adapt. We can discover in what way, by locating where Uranus is, which rules Aquarius. Uranus is in Gemini, as we noted earlier, and so our thinking must adapt and accelerate. The challenge of Uranus ruling the full moon could be instability so there must be a strong common sense adherence to a functional plan, something which maintains order and stability to hang onto.
The Full Moon is also inconjunct Jupiter in Cancer on the bottom left – but loosely – which says, financial, emotional security and safety, regularity and safety are crucial to maintain in order to not rock the boat too hard, however, the Full Moon presents the truth, the change in our lives will be disruptive and present new energy, circumstances, challenges and dynamic world events we will have to adjust to, and will disturb our old patterns and old comfort zone.
So to wrap up this post, exposure and revelations towards the unusual, the unorthodox, and the incredible is happening all around us, and there’s no going back to the old way.
In order to ride this wave while preserving our cherished inner core values and connection to the Divine, we must develop a new mind/heart relationship with that Divine and increase our potential of walking a stronger higher path of Aquarius (Uranus’s theme).
There is so much we could explore with this subject….so many changes are emerging each day to adjust to and take in – it is the threshold of our future we are transitioning through, right now. Decide who you want to be in this new world, and put your highest attention upon this new vision of YOU, your Divine True Self. Working together with the harmonious desired end goal, will be an Aquarius/Uranus desire to cherish. Have a beautiful week, and as always, I enjoy your thoughts! Christine
