Let’s discuss Uranus, since it is about to move into the sign of Gemini in a week. Uranus, while in Taurus, has not been easy for many of us. We’ve dealt with high inflation and shortages in basic goods.
Who could forget the toilet paper shortage during the pandemic? Or the incredible spike in inflation during the summer of 2022? Though the past ten years have been the hottest on record, the two warmest years occurred in 2023 and 2024, reminding us of the dramatic shifts in our climate.
When it comes to relationships, many of us have experienced major changes. Some of these were tied to shifting personal values as the political climate became more polarized. Others were related to work, with sudden shifts into remote work or being asked to return to the office unexpectedly.
We got our first exposure to Uranus in Taurus on May 15, 2018. The ingress lasted six months before Uranus retrograded back into Aries. Since March 6, 2019, we’ve been living with the full expression of Uranus in Taurus. Uranus will exit Taurus on July 7 as it enters Gemini for four months before retreating back into Taurus for one final five-month stretch. After that, it will not return to Taurus in our lifetime.
You can think of this upcoming exit as a temporary breakup before Uranus comes back for its booty call. (And as I typed that, I realized I just made a pun of sorts.) Fittingly, this article focuses on Uranus’ conjunction with Venus, a planet that governs relationships.
Venus is applying a conjunction to Uranus. Venus rules love, harmony, balance, relationships, luxury, and money. Uranus, on the other hand, is all about disruptions, sometimes pleasant, sometimes the kind that hits you hard. When Venus is conjunct Uranus, we may see sudden rises or falls in the stock market, unexpected expenses, or surprise income. In relationships, this could bring anything from a shocking breakup to a whirlwind commitment. Uranus is the wildcard, like dealer’s choice, and it rarely plays out in a predictable way.
However, we can gain more insight by looking at the other planetary influences surrounding this conjunction, which will be exact on July 4 at 7:45 AM CDT, at 29 degrees and 52 minutes of Taurus.
Uranus and Venus are in trine to Pluto. This combination offers an opportunity to identify what’s not working in our lives and make meaningful changes. Some may turn inward to reflect on how their life fits into the larger picture. With Venus trine Pluto, relationships come into focus. You may find yourself asking whether your mind, body, and soul are truly aligned with the connections in your life. If they are, you may seek to deepen them. If not, this could be the time to acknowledge that a chapter has ended and prepare for what’s next.
Venus is also sextile Saturn, which brings a more personal sense of accountability into the mix. This aspect prompts us to consider our role in relationships and whether we’ve been living up to our commitments. If we’ve fallen short, this week could bring a turning point, a realization that inspires us to re-engage with greater intention. Venus sextile Neptune also supports compassion, imagination, and the ability to see things from someone else’s perspective. If you’re in a romantic relationship, this may be a chance to rekindle some magic.
We can’t overlook Uranus here. Its sextile to Saturn helps to temper some of its more erratic energy. This is a helpful influence that allows for innovative solutions to long-standing problems, especially financial ones. The sextile to Neptune adds a spiritual lens, encouraging us to reflect on what love really means.
While this Venus - Uranus conjunction will likely show up in the areas of love and money, it can also spark creativity. You might find yourself inspired to explore new approaches to art, music, or writing. You could also feel drawn to refresh your appearance or living space. The supportive sextile between the Cancer Sun and Mars in Virgo brings motivation and follow-through, especially when it comes to family or home-related projects.
One caution this week involves the opposition between Mercury and Pluto. With Mercury in Leo, your passion for personal growth or relationship improvement could come off as controlling or self-centered, even if your intentions are good. It's important to keep the focus on love and mutual respect. We can encourage participation and communication in our relationships, but we cannot control other people. When we try, relationships often begin to unravel.
So, you may be wondering how this will apply to you. If you have personal planets or angles near 29 degrees of any sign, you’re likely to feel this energy more strongly. Aspects from Uranus can show up as breakthroughs, shake-ups, or unexpected opportunities. Another layer of insight comes from looking at the house in your chart that is ruled by Taurus, since this is where Uranus and Venus are meeting. And while I can’t see your personal chart, we can still explore how this may influence you based on your rising sign.

Venus- Uranus Conjunction by Rising Sign
Aries Rising: The conjunction is at the last degree of your second house. You may want to buy a lottery ticket. Just like a box of chocolates, with Uranus, you never know what you’re going to get! But I wouldn't go crazy and buy a huge lot. Overall, you may get a surprise when it comes to something that you value, your income, or a restriction to your spending.
Taurus Rising: You just may want to shake up your appearance. It could be time to get a new look or set yourself in a new direction. There’s also a chance of meeting someone interesting and outside your usual tribe, and this person could inspire you toward your next steps.
Gemini Rising: You may want to meditate this week and see what new visions come to your psyche. With Uranus and Venus, you could tap into a new realm of love, peace, and understanding. This could be an extremely enlightening time for you.
Cancer Rising: Over the past six years, you’ve had a lot of ups and downs when it comes to your social and friend group. This is a time that can help you appreciate those from your past, while also feeling excited about the people you’re about to meet. Who knows? You may be on the internet right now, searching for a new cause to align with that brings together people who think differently than those you’ve known before.
Leo Rising: Pay attention to unique opportunities that could arise in your work environment. This energy can go either way. You could be getting a raise or promotion, or it could be the opposite. Whatever happens, don’t burn any bridges, and make sure to document important conversations with your superiors, just in case things don’t go your way.
Virgo Rising: If someone calls you up this week and says, “Let’s take a trip across the country” or “Join an ashram,” you may be inclined to say yes. This is a great time for spiritual reflection on how you intertwine with the world and the universe. Expect the unexpected when it comes to guidance and insight.
Libra Rising: Keep an eye on your investments and shared resources this week. Lately, there have been a lot of unexpected expenses, maybe replacing electronics or home appliances. But there could also be an unexpected source of income, like a bonus from work or a small windfall.
Scorpio Rising: This is a make-or-break moment when it comes to your relationships. Look in the mirror and ask yourself if you’re bringing your soul, body, and mind into your current circumstances. If not, do you want to? Has a relationship run its course? You may also find yourself oddly interested in someone new.
Sagittarius Rising: There could be both pleasant and unpleasant surprises in your work environment. The key here is to make sure all of your equipment is running smoothly and has been serviced. If anything needs updates, do it now, before Mercury goes retrograde in a few weeks. Pay attention to your home tasks, lift heavy items with care, and be intentional with your routines.
Capricorn Rising: Spend this week with your children and have some fun. If you don’t have children, this is a time to create. You may be inspired by a new muse or enjoy a concert or outdoor festivities. And if you’re single, this is a great time to meet someone through an unexpected encounter. So don’t get annoyed if someone bumps into you!
Aquarius Rising: You may just want to stay home this week and cuddle with your significant someone. You could find yourself more open to your inner world and craving comfort and safety. This could be a pivot point for you and your family, where you recognize how much you truly have in common. It may be a surprisingly healing emotional time.
Pisces Rising: You may find yourself banging on drums with strangers at a local brewery this week. This is a time to do something off the beaten path in your community. Connect with a group outside your comfort zone, or do something fun with your siblings and extended family. No matter what you choose, do it with an open heart and a sense of love.
Recap on the Venus- Uranus Conjunction
The little tidbits written above are just a few of the many possibilities that can arise with the Uranus-Venus conjunction. These insights aren’t set in stone, so pay attention to what feels different or surprising. Ask yourself questions like: Where am I craving more freedom or authenticity in love or finances? What needs to be rearranged, not just externally, but within my value system? Am I in the best situation for myself and the people I love?
But not everything will be introspective. Sometimes, you just need to take action to shake things up a bit. Go to a new restaurant or venue. Get out into your community. Have meaningful conversations based on the kind of world you want to live in. Be open to saying yes to a stranger. Whatever you choose to do, Venus is asking you to seek love, harmony, balance, peace, and most of all, understanding.
