I’d never really followed astrology and wouldn't have known that all this was from a uranus transit over my sun and moon but an acquaintance who is an astrologer just happened be visiting from out of town in february last year and looked at my chart and told me.
After she left, the bottom dropped out of my life.
My sun and moon are conjunct in the 10th house.
I experienced a full structural collapse of my life at multiple levels at once. I was dealing with daily existential crisis for months:
- client and work ended dramatically (I continued with a few clients that I'm still working with this year, but most of that work ended -- some of it uncerimoniously.)
- huge loss or ending of some of my most significant family & friend relationships - lots of instability and fear around finances that required me to do something very scary on my own (it worked about, but I'm still dealing with the after-effects this year)
- extreme grief and existential despair, and then oddly, at the same time major breakthroughs. It was so strange, I would either spend a day balling my eyes out, or be in complete breakthrough mode. For months, there was absolutely no even-keel, middle ground.
- all of this resulted in severe depletion. But I did come to enjoy and appreciate simply 'resting' for hours, listening to gentle music with my dog nestled beside me. That's all I could do. I rented an apartment that was in a downtown area for the winter and I really healed there--I couldn't participate in the world, but I was so grateful to hear life and bustle happening outside my door. I was just what I needed.
- this year, I'm a completely different person. I'm authentic in a way that I've never been in my life--anything that is even slightly out of alignment is a solid 'no.' In the past I would just go along with a friend's plan because I didn't want to be disruptive. Now I hold such strong boundaries that nothing can touch me that isn't completely right or true. It's like something deep in me can't tolerate it.
I’m curious if anyone else has experienced a Uranus transit like this, especially over Sun/Moon or in the 10th house? or affecting multiple areas of life at once.
I haven't had anyone to talk to about this. My friends and work colleagues were just like, "oh yeah, it was a hard year." or "It was the year of the snake." But this wasn't a light shedding. It was a full-on, sudden, shocking reorganization of my entire life.
