Uranus Rules Aquarius...
Uranus represents moral judgement. It plays by its own rules,
Uranus will change any situation to fit into its moral code of right and wrong.

Operating on its own timetable and by its own set of rules, Uranus is both immovable and a powerful force for change. Wherever Uranus falls in a natal chart there will be a sense of disdain and disregard for established rules in favor of Uranus' unique sense of right and wrong. With Uranus, the rules must be acceptable on the grandest moral scale or they will be discarded or fought against swiftly and effectively if necessary.

Natal Chart Generator

Uranus is fearless and change is necessary...

A stagnant, worn-out or out-of-date situation is intolerable to Uranus. In the house containing Uranus in your natal chart, you have no fear of change. Change is necessary and it will be made swiftly when Uranus is in charge. The ramifications are irrelevant and the means justify the end when Uranus is making a change. Often, the planet turns things upside down and creates a painful crisis, which leads to complete upheavals of the status quo. Forward progress is always necessary where Uranus is found in a natal chart and there is no stopping it.

Uranus operates on a broad scale...

As a mature, outer planet, Uranus is always trying to see things from the broadest viewpoint possible. Where you find Uranus in your natal chart, you want to keep everyone in mind when making a decision or change. In that house, you make decisions that benefits the group over the individual. This dynamic is always preferred by Uranus.

Uranus will decide what's best for you...

Every planet has a pitfall, for Uranus it is in applying rules to the world which do not apply to it. This behavior shows itself in the house containing Uranus in your natal chart. Uranus wants the world to follow a set of rules for right and wrong, but Uranus also wants to make those rules. What's worse, Uranus wants the freedom to be able to break those rules when others can't. This is often seen by others as intellectual elitism, which people generally view as arrogance. Beware of appearing arrogant in the house containing Uranus in your natal chart.

Ideals are more important than feelings...

Uranus' ideals are more important than their feelings. In the house containing Uranus in your natal chart, this scenario can always be seen. It creates an atmosphere conducive to constructive discussions about problems rather than arguments with unproductive, emotional outbursts. It promotes an atmosphere of acceptance and forgiveness because Uranus is mature enough to know that erring is human nature and mistakes and misunderstandings are a natural part of living. However, it can also create a feeling of separation due to Uranus' lack of emotional depth. In the house containing Uranus, you offer proper moral behavior, but you can leave them in need of emotional help and feeling like they are not understood on a feeling level. In this house, you tend to give people the feeling that they are no more important than any other random person in the world because you would offer the same intellectual consultation to anyone, and it applies universally. People in relationships want to feel special. Applying universal standards in a one-size-fits-all fashion to people can cause them to feel that they aren't special at all in your relationship.

How can the planet of change also be immovable...

Think of a train that has been on the same track for years. Uranus is a boulder suddenly put on the track to stop the train from running on that same old track. In this way, Uranus is immovable and is creates change. In a house containing Uranus, this dynamic will inevitably come into play. It can be a painful experience when Uranus affects us in this way. It can truly feel like a boulder is dropped on our comfortable, stable, routine life. We generally don't like it, and we want Uranus to just go away and leave us to our status quo. But Uranus knows better. Sometimes change is absolutely necessary, and when it is, Uranus is immovable in it's ability to make it happen.
