Nothing can send shivers down your spine faster than the thought of a retrograde! However, not every retrograde is bound to be a negative experience. In fact, it can sometimes pave the way for beautiful revelations that change the way you see yourself. When Uranus retrograde 2022 begins on August 24—at 9:54 a.m. ET, to be exact—it will launch a period of personal reflection and internal growth. And it might even inspire you to make some major life changes. After all, everything can change in one moment, and since it rains diamonds on Uranus, who knows what gems you’re about to stumble upon in the wake of this powerful shift?
In astrology, Uranus is the planet of rebellion and innovation. Although its influence tends to bring instability and unpredictability, it also paves the way for sudden changes that revolutionize the world. Although it’s normal to feel terrified of change, Uranus understands that sometimes, you need to rip off the band air and embrace something different!
However, while Uranus is retrograde, its influence becomes more tempered and inverted. Instead of evoking change on an external level, Uranus begins to transform your world internally. Instead of changing the world around you, Uranus encourages *you* to be the one doing the changing. Until January 22, 2023, this five-month-long retrograde will inspire you to deepen your sense of independence and strengthen your resolve in your own unique self.
