Mars conjunct Uranus and the North Node in Taurus is occurring on August 1st, 2022.
Mars conjunct Uranus and North Node at 18° of Taurus
With this potent triple conjunction, the universe is offering us powerful developments and even quantum leaps in our soul journey, under the influence of Uranus. It is inviting us to change and grow, on a very basic level, which is Taurus. That is as basic as our food, clothes and money, and how we get those basic needs fulfilled. It is as basic as our sense of self-worth, how much and what we feel we deserve from the planet, from life. Taurus is what strengthens our bodies and gives us more self-confidence. It is the ground we stand on, the material resources we can access based on our soul’s attractive power, which is Venus, the ruler of Taurus. I have spoken of how material resources, natural resources, and the global economy have all been under pressure to change because of Uranus transit in Taurus (you can see more about this in my previous posts and videos). Now we are reaching one peak moment of this transit.
Uranus is the most important planet in this conjunction, because it is the agent of the higher-self, our intuition and capacity to be inventive and innovative in finding solutions. It is attuned to the source of where all wisdom comes from, the cosmic mind. So, during this time, we can be guided by this higher faculty in ourselves (yes, because it is present in every soul, more or less developed). Now it can be more easily activated, for all of us!
The North Node points to where the soul is developing collectively, it is associated with fate. With Uranus aligned with the North Node, we can more easily grasp in the air new solutions to old problems we didn’t know how to solve before. Or we can open up to a much broader perception around something that has been difficult to deal with on a very material and basic level.
Mars is the agent of will and self-assertion. It calls for action, a fight, and trying out something new. Not only might we grasp solutions in the air but also start to get things going right away. And it can actually be problematic, if we haven’t learned everything we were supposed to have learnt until here. That’s when Saturn can show up again, with some additional bills and challenges.
But if we have been excellent disciples, and have learnt everything we were supposed to, until this time of our soul’s journey, then we will see some positive upheavals taking place. The fast changes we may experience will be desirable and satisfying, even if they come unexpectedly.
These changes and upheavals are forcing us to leave behind what we have already completed. It is putting us on another path, making us let go of the past. What we are leaving behind is represented by the South Node in Scorpio, and where it is transiting in your natal chart. This relates to contracts and commitments that have served their purpose but now are outdated. These contracts and commitments have made you powerless to some extent, controlling you or your resources, blocking you from fully accessing your own personal strength and source of abundance.
So, we are talking here about marriages and unions which have been damaging to you, or contracts, negotiations and business which have been abusive, overextending their control and power. It has really drained our energy, compromised our self-confidence and even drained our material resources, our money and possessions. Now it is a time to gather what is truly ours, pack it up and leave. It is a time to restore our personal strength, recover from abuse and exploitation, restore our own source of abundance and nourishment.
Venus at 18° of Cancer

The attractive power, which is Venus, is in exact harmonic alignment with Mars, Uranus and the Nodes in Venus’ own sign, Taurus. What a delightful configuration that is! It really feels like a gift from the universe, maybe a hidden potential in such a beautiful corner of our lives, we need to have the sensible vision to see it. In other words, there is a part of your life which is emotionally satisfying on a very deep level, and this is a time to recognize it, and give it the value it deserves. It is a time to put your energy into this emotional satisfaction.
Cancer is an introspective and emotional energy, which really attunes to our inner worlds, our past memories and unconscious needs. We may find out that this emotional satisfaction, self-love and self-acceptance, can be hidden in our past, in our ancestors and family relationships. It can be hidden in your home, in your cozy couch, or by the fireplace. It can be so natural to you that you may even not notice it. It can be hidden in childhood memories, it may come from your inner child. And it calls for emotional fulfillment, rather than merely material fulfillment.

Both these aspects of the Moon tell us that it all comes with emotional intensity, indeed. This can trigger past fears and childish behaviors. It requires self-awareness (Jupiter in Aries) to detach from the past, and see it from a detached perspective. In other words, it can be difficult to deal with certain emotions, recovering your present adult consciousness and still having learned from the process. We tend to get caught up in the emotional state, or totally suppress it, extremes of perception which are represented by the challenge of Neptune in Pisces. But it is the acceptance and transmutation of emotions that serves our soul growth (Pluto), because it stimulates the development of a healthy ego, a more balanced sense of self.

So, here we see the potential for the emergence of this healthy ego and more balanced sense of self for all of us. Yes, it is improbable, radical or even awkward on a collective level, but this is possible to be achieved. It makes people more generous and less self-defensive (Leo traits). Expressing this energy will do wonders for you, if you are able to grasp the magical energy present in this "Yod" configuration, also called “the finger of god”. It is about interacting with others as an integrated individual, as a person that truly speaks and hears from the heart.
Now, Saturn in Aquarius calls for awareness of who you are among others, what is your influence on others and their influence on you, what are your responsibilities to them and other people who will come after you (like your children, students, pupils or even those who follow you on social media). We have a personal responsibility here, and it comes alongside with the valuable opportunities the universe is offering to us, especially this time.

This is about expanding and growing from your soul, your heart, your spiritual essence. It is about allowing eternal spirit to show up in your mortal personality. Of course, this can turn out to be very subtle energy because of all the other energies in the sky during this time. But it is there! And it helps us tune into our heart’s desire, letting it shine through our actions and personal endeavors, through our relationships and the energy we give to others by just being ourselves, in full-spectrum light.
So, this rare aspect, the triple conjunction between Mars, Uranus and the North Node in Taurus, is occurring during Leo season, a time of self-discovery and joy, of becoming more creative and authentic, and under the waxing Moon in Virgo, which can make it grow and show up. Taurus and Virgo are both earth signs, which means they are very material energies, they like it practical and realistic, concrete and reliable. It really is a favorable time to apply your gifts, to use your creativity, and make a change to support your well-being and your soul growth.
