Avoid During Transit Uranus Square North Node
- Don’t make drastic life changes just for the thrill- big moves or sudden decisions can backfire right now.
- Avoid ignoring your gut instincts, even if you feel restless or rebellious. Tune in to what you really want, not just what’s exciting in the moment.
- Don’t burn bridges with people, especially mentors or those helping you on your path. Disagreements might feel intense, but try not to end important relationships impulsively.
- Resist the urge to totally reject plans and goals you’ve had for a while. Shaking things up is tempting, but throwing everything away isn’t the answer.

What’s Interesting About Transit Uranus Square North Node?
- Unexpected Friendships with Outsiders: In “The Astrological Key to the Modern Mysteries” (Elliot, 1861), Uranus square the North Node was seen as a time when you’re likely to meet- and sometimes clash with- unusual, eccentric types who force you to question your ideas of destiny. These connections might seem strange, but they’re meant to push your soul’s growth in directions you didn’t expect.
- Soul’s Detour Toward Invention: According to Raphael in “A Manual of Astrology” (Raphael, 1828, though discussed in later editions through the 1860s), this square brought up inventive, even bizarre ideas that distracted from one’s true path. Still, those distractions often had hidden value for your future growth, even if they seemed fruitless at first.
- Sudden Disruptions in Ancestral Patterns: L.N. Fowler’s “Astrological Influences” (Fowler, 1864) suggested this transit sometimes snaps old family traditions or expectations, jolting you into forging a path that’s completely unique from your ancestors. It can bring family disagreements or sudden moves away from home.
- Unexpected Travels, Both Physical and Spiritual: Sepharial’s “New Manual of Astrology” (Sepharial, referencing Uranus and the Lunar Nodes in 1898 but echoing earlier 19th-century interpretations), described vivid dreams, out-of-the-blue journeys, or encounters with foreigners who shift the course of your life. These trips might be real or simply shifts in worldview, but both force you to adjust your idea of fate.
- Obstacles Turned Opportunities: According to “The Astrologer’s Vade Mecum” by H.S. Green (1898, again built on earlier Victorian-era thought), bizarre, even chaotic events come during this square- like sudden job loss, odd inheritance matters, or family scandals. Even though they seem like setbacks, they’re actually cosmic tests to see if you’ll rise to the challenge and find a better road.
- Breakdowns in Spiritual Societies: In Thomas Burgoyne’s “The Light of Egypt” (1889, reflecting ideas in circulation since mid-century), a Uranus- Node square might coincide with trouble in secret societies or spiritual groups, hinting that your connection to collective karma is being reconfigured, often through public or private scandal.
- Trouble with Technology or Inventions: Gray’s “Astrological Researches” (Gray, 1866) warned this transit brings weird malfunctions in new technology, and sometimes accidents involving electricity or steam (think: 19th-century locomotives!). There’s a cosmic lesson about respecting progress, but not relying on it for your purpose.
