Transit Uranus Semisquare Natal Venus

“Unexpected twists in love and money”

Here’s what to do and not do when you have a Uranus Semisquare Venus transit. Below that are some interesting things about this transit.

Avoid During This Transit

• Don’t rush into new relationships or flings- things can feel exciting but might not last.
• Avoid making big decisions about love or money, like moving in with someone new or buying expensive stuff you don’t really need.
• Try not to stir up drama in your current relationships just because you’re bored or restless.
• Don’t take unnecessary risks with your finances- this isn’t the best time to gamble or spend impulsively.
• Hold off on changing your appearance drastically (like a bold new hairstyle or tattoos), because you might regret it once the transit passes.
• Resist the urge to break up with someone solely because you want more freedom- give it some time before making huge changes.
• Don’t get pulled into love triangles or secret romances- they tend to backfire under this transit.
• Avoid ignoring your own needs in relationships just to keep the peace; be honest, but also gentle.
• Try not to disengage or distance yourself completely from loved ones if you’re feeling rebellious.
• Steer clear of get-rich-quick schemes or making sudden investments- they might seem good now but could go sideways later.

Do During This Transit

• Try something new in your relationships- break out of old patterns or routines with your partner or friends.
• Update your personal style- experiment with your look, like a haircut, new clothes, or a change in your usual vibe.
• Let go of whatever (or whoever) isn’t making you happy anymore; this transit is about shaking things up!
• Be open-minded in love- unexpected crushes or flirty moments might pop up. Don’t be afraid to enjoy a little excitement.
• Get creative! Use this energy for art, music, writing, or whatever creative outlet calls to you.
• Make time for new experiences, especially ones that feel a little outside your comfort zone- think unique dates, spontaneous adventures, or quirky social events.
• Practice self-love and self-worth; don’t let old insecurities hold you back from pursuing what sparks joy.
• Pay attention to your finances- avoid impulse spending or risky investments, but consider innovative ways to earn or save money.
• Talk things out if you’re feeling restless or “off” in your connections; honest communication goes a long way now.
• Don’t stress if things feel a little unpredictable- sometimes surprises bring the best opportunities for growth and happiness.

What’s interesting about this transit?

When Uranus forms a semisquare (45° aspect) with your natal Venus, you’re working with some very quirky cosmic energy. This aspect isn’t usually given the spotlight like oppositions or conjunctions, but there’s some cool esoteric lore attached to it. Here are some lesser-known interpretations and tidbits drawn from old and sometimes dusty astrology texts:

• “Restless Heart Aspect” – Some early 20th-century astrologers called this a time when “the heart grows tired of the usual.” People were warned to guard against “fanciful extramarital attachments” or being tempted by forbidden pleasures in love.
• Venus Tempests – In some lesser-known Victorian texts, Uranus in hard aspect to Venus was blamed for “sudden tempests upon the seas of emotional life”- meaning out-of-the-blue emotional shifts that could sink or startle you.
• The “Artisan’s Inspiration” – Medieval astrologers sometimes linked this transit to “striking of stray muses,” when strange art or music ideas pop up unbidden, and sometimes seem outright “unharmonious or scandalous.”
• Venusian Unmasking – Some obscure books say Uranus semisquare Venus can make you see through facades in both people and things you love- suddenly what seemed pretty is exposed as fake, or you value something you ignored before.
• Peculiar Luck – There’s mention in a few Renaissance sources of “strange run-ins or gifts of sweet and sour flavor” coming out of nowhere, especially involving little luxuries or romantic mixups.
• The Unexpected Visitor – Some folk astrology says you might meet someone who completely throws you off your game (for better or worse)- a “Venusian wild card” entering your life.

Experiencing This Transit

When Uranus hits your natal Venus with a semisquare, things can get a little unpredictable. Uranus is all about surprises and shaking up routines, while Venus is tied to what you like, who you love, and how you appreciate beauty. So, when they clash in this edgy angle, it sets off a restless, jittery vibe in your relationships, money matters, and even your sense of style or taste. You might suddenly question what you find attractive, or feel like changing things up without warning. This isn’t a super dramatic influence like a full square, but it’s definitely the kind of transit where you can trip over something unexpected.

Challenges during this transit

• Restlessness in Relationships: You might suddenly feel bored or irritated with someone you usually adore, which can lead to picking fights for no real reason or feeling like you want out.
• Fleeting Attractions and Crushes: Beware of sudden, intense crushes or the urge to flirt with someone totally new, potentially creating drama in your current relationship.
• Impulsive Spending: You may have a weird urge to splurge on quirky things, like that gadget or artwork you don’t even need. Venus rules money, so it’s easy to get reckless here.
• Changes in Social Circles: Sudden flair-ups with friends or feeling like you no longer fit in with your usual crowd, and the urge to bail on plans at the last minute.
• Dissatisfaction with Appearance: Feeling fed up with your look, leading to odd style experiments, questionable hair colors, or regrettable fashion choices.

Opportunities during this transit

• Trying New Styles: If you’ve ever wanted to shake up your look (even just a little), now’s the time to experiment and see what vibes with you. Maybe a funky haircut or bold new outfit actually works.
• Meeting Unusual People: You might cross paths with people who are very different from your normal crew. These folks could open your mind or introduce you to cool new perspectives or hobbies.
• Creative Breakthroughs: Your art, music, or creative projects might take an odd but inspired turn, helping you create something fresh and unique.
• Breaking Free from Old Patterns: This is a good time to break up routines, drop bad habits in your love life or finances, or just stop caring about what other people think is beautiful or valuable.
• Learning to Embrace Change: You might find out you’re way more adaptable than you thought. Rolling with the surprises of this transit can help you build flexibility and confidence in your own tastes and choices.
