There is energy in the air for change. Mars lends passion and motivation to our lives while Uranus and the North Node imbue that feeling of motivation with an air of shaking up the status quo and aligning the collective with their true path in this lifetime.

Astrology For Right Now

This week there is a juicy conjunction happening between Mars, Uranus and the North Node in Taurus. This conjunction is also Square to Saturn Retrograde in Aquarius, and trine to both Venus in Cancer and Neptune Retrograde in Pisces.

Mars/Uranus conjunctions create energy for action and reformation. We’re being inspired to shake up our traditions and take courageous initiative to make changes in the areas of our lives which have been notably difficult to change in the past. The North Node guides us back into harmony with our souls true path or mission for this lifetime. We’re ready to disrupt our former lives and lifestyles in order to realign with our truth and live our best lives. For many of us, we finally have what we need to take action and make a lasting change.

These changes that we’re making come from a logical place. We’ve gone back and forth on these changes for some time now, but we’ve reached a turning point. The old ways in which we were living are no longer effective and we cannot deny that fact any longer. Instead, we’re revisiting our dreams and allowing the ways we like to imagine ourselves to serve as the blueprint so we can set in motion the changes that will allow us to become who we’ve always wanted to be.

In the past, we’ve tried to transform through brute force, punishment, or guilt and shame. This time around our motivation to change is coming from a place of love. We want to take care of our lives, and our dreams, and our people, and we want to experience real pleasure. All of the effort and passion that is being exerted now comes a little more easily because it comes in the name of love and pleasure. This is a better motivator, and makes any effort seem all the more worthwhile.

How the current astrology will affect each of us depends greatly on where the affected planets land in our own chart. For a summary of how you might experience the Mars/Uranus/North Node conjunction, find your rising sign (ascendant) below and read your horoscope for the current astrology.

Aries

Aries risings, you are taking action and making upgrades to your finances or your personal values. You’ve reached a turning point with friends or the work you do in groups, and have learned some big lessons that you can no longer ignore. You’re returning to your intuition and making a choice to nurture your home, family, or your true self at this time.

Taurus

Taurus risings, all of the upgrades you’re experiencing right now are strictly between you and yourself. You may be revising you career or public image once and for all in favor of a better relationship with yourself and who you know yourself to be. You also may be taking care of your finances and fostering your values and resources in order to fit into more aligned social, political, or working groups that are a better reflection of who you truly are.

Gemini

Gemini risings, you may have the energy to upgrade and organize your inner world, harmonizing your dreams, intuition, and spiritual inclinations. You may be reconsidering the beliefs that you learned in school, church, or on your travels. You’re likely thinking about your public image or career and how that fits in with the unseen changes you’re experiencing. Your sense of abundance and how it pertains to your ability to experience beauty and pleasure is definitely contributing to what’s on your mind and the action you’re thinking about taking as well.

Cancer

Cancer risings are facing the urge to make changes to how they show up for friends, co-workers, or social and political groups. You’ve been working on your own healing and have been getting very clear on the best ways to care for yourself, and that may look like changing the ways that you offer care and consistency for your friends. This is likely in response to the way that you’ve offered leadership and served as the voice of reason when it comes to other people’s issues in the past. You’ve learned major lessons by helping other people in this way, these lessons are nudging you toward change.

Leo

Leo risings, you may be feeling inspired right now. Your career and public image are in need of some updating, and you may feel the urge to get back in touch with your artistic side a bit more. A close relative, friend, or lover may have contributed to this urge. You want to reconnect with your intuition and your need to nurture your dreams or unconscious mind. You are being beckoned by the unseen parts of yourself, the parts of you that inspire your art, your dreams, and your creativity.

Virgo

Virgo risings, now is a time for action in the name of your expansion. You may be thinking philosophically, or considering a luxury travel experience or enrolling in higher education. You’ll do whatever it is that you’ve gotta do to ground yourself and make space for new ideas. Considerations about your health or lifestyle probably brought you to where you are right now, and rethinking a dreamy partnership or issues with needy friends is pushing you towards doing something that is just for you that will get you closer to being your best self or living your best life.

Libra

Libra risings, are you in the mood to give someone else an extreme makeover? Something or someone in your life is ready to be rebooted. You’re known as a caretaker publicly, and that reputation is a pretty good look for you. The way you show up in service to others is creative and expansive. You’re being brought back down to earth now so you can find more structure and efficiency in how you use the kindness and energy that you are constantly giving to others. Maybe take some of that kindness back for yourself in the next couple of days.

Scorpio

Good news, Scorpio risings! Passion, spontaneity, and truth are making waves in your relationships sector right now. You’re feeling mega inspired and fun and seeking to expand on the ways that you take care of your people. You also may have been feeling a bit held back on the work you’ve been doing at home or on your inner self, so you are using that extra energy to spice up your love life in the meantime.

Sagittarius

Sagittarius risings, there’s no more time to talk about it or think about it, your day to day grind is being activated for change now. You have a dream about the person you want to be, and the vision doesn’t feel as unattainable at the moment. You also may be integrating the understanding that how you show up in service and care for others can be a point of pride and pleasure, which motivates us even more to stop talking about “the plan” and start putting in that work.

Capricorn

Capricorn risings, you’re being energized by joy and feel ready to re-engage in some of your hobbies. Remembering what’s truly important in life will do that to you. You may be feeling dreamy and romantic which can translate into really cool things happening for you artistically, especially when you collaborate with a partner or allow healing relationships to influence whatever it is that you do.

Aquarius

Aquarius risings, you might feel like redecorating or rearranging your home at this time. Only do it if you feel like you need to clear up stagnant energy in your home. Relaxing and enjoying your home with family or even by yourself may be the change of pace that you need right now. Try not to spend too much money, take pleasure in luxurious forms of recuperation at home instead.

Pisces

Pisces Risings, go ahead and talk it out. You’ve probably got things you need to say. You may want to be more authentic in how you communicate. Sometimes as a pisces it can be hard to express yourself accurately, but you’re in a creative and expressive mood, so you’ve gotta let what’s inside your head come out. Don’t be discouraged by how hard it can be to explain the lessons you’ve learned in liminal realms. You’re trying your best to explain things in a way that is grounded (or at the very least, beautiful and artistic). You may find that if you just start talking through things or writing it down, people will understand. Have faith that the people who need to get it, will get it. Let everyone else stay lost, your message may not be for them.
