On 26th April Uranus, the planet of innovation and revolution moves permanently into Gemini, the air sign of communication, intellect and local travel. Unleashing a massive shake up in how we share information, connect, learn and travel.
Uranus here has a stimulating and electrifying influence on the mind, giving free rein to an adventure of mental awakening and creativity that offers up intellectual breakthroughs, ways to spice things up, and give matters trailblazing twists!
New beliefs, ideals, ways of viewing reality, the world, and how we connect to each other, personally and on a humanitarian level.
There is mental dexterity here, along with a strong tendency to think outside the box, be experimental and innovative – some ideas will indeed be truly awesome, others perhaps shocking!
Ideas could be genius, rebellious, or seem totally crazy – as Uranus has to push boundaries, has to have freedom, and loves being different!
Uranus urges us to be authentic, challenges our thinking, as well as not to conform to things that do not align with our personal beliefs or truth.
Uranus will be in Gemini until 2033
Uranus first dipped into Gemini last year from 7th July – 8th November 2025, bringing us a little preview of personal awakenings that will unfold over the next few years. Uranus will now be in Gemini until May 2033, and we are at the beginning of an evolutionary 7 year cycle.
A big energetic shift, since we now enter an ongoing period of innovation, awakenings, revolutions and disruption. A continuous and transformative change of old mental patterns, beliefs and established structures, as they are challenged by curious, diversified, inventive, radical new ways of thinking.
Previous times Uranus was Gemini
The cycle of Uranus is roughly 84 years, and previous times Uranus was in Gemini coincided with themes of War, technological innovation and awakenings around beliefs, ideals, worldviews and politics that led to both conflicts and upgrades, as old ways were disrupted and overturned by new ideas:
- 1941-1949 ~ World War II, the invention of the atomic bomb, computers, jet engine, the beginning of commercial air travel
- 1859 – 1866 ~ The American Civil War, the world’s first underground railway – the London underground, the first sound recording – a human voice singing Au Clair de la Lune
- 1774 – 1782 ~ The American Revolution, The Industrial Revolution
- 1690 – 1698 ~ The Age of Enlightenment
Uranus, Neptune and Pluto Align in a Minor Grand Trine
Uranus is the last of the outer planets to permanently shift signs. With Uranus completing his move into Gemini, the three outer planets with Neptune in Aries, and Pluto in Aquarius, align into a rare, potent, harmonious Minor Grand Trine. A magical triangle that encompasses support and inspiration for a collective awakening and global transformation.
Indicating that we are no longer waiting for change, it is definitely underway. The foundations of the new era, the ideas and master plans that will structure, and unfold over, the next few decades ahead are being activated now.
The magical triangle is providing long term cosmic support – through until 2028 – and brings a massive shift in the background energy. An influence showing that ahead we can anticipate spiritual evolvement, technological innovation, and societal shifts to unfold globally.
Individually it will help us to discover our ideal path forwards and to empower our endeavors. We can use this energy best by consciously engaging with the Uranus-Neptune-Pluto alliance and co-creating with them. By being mindful and intentional with our effort and actions.
To be more specific here, we could meditate on Neptune in Aries. How to merge spiritual awareness (Neptune) with our individual ambitions and actions (Aries). Actively contemplate our souls calling to illuminate our future path.
Minor Grand Trine is exact in July 2026 & June 2027
The influence of the minor grand trine intensifies when the powerful alignment is exact in both July 2026 (at 4° of the signs) and June 2027 (at 6° of the signs).
Jupiter aligns with Minor Grand Trine in July 2026
In July 2026, this takes place with Neptune at 4° Aries, Uranus 4° Gemini, and Pluto 4° Aquarius. Additionally, Jupiter at 4° Leo aligns with this wondrous configuration, making exact aspects to all the outer planets between 20th & 21st July.
Jupiter looks like a fire starter here, and is truly going to ignite the energy! Jupiter in Leo provides bold, look-at-me self-expression, and will be encouraging us to put our new ideas into courageous action. An urge to visibly create change and show what is changing in life, to place it dramatically in the spotlight.
Jupiter sextile Uranus brings ideas and mental breakthroughs, Jupiter trine Neptune brings spiritual awareness, and Jupiter opposite Pluto (hopefully) brings honourable personal motivations – awareness that personal goals should not be egotistical or selfish, they must also be for the greater good of all.
Certainly a potent time to launch new projects and for speaking your truth. Along with having sudden spiritual insights and inspiration. We may discover a deeper layer of spiritual wisdom or find our path in life somehow aligning with our spiritual beliefs, perhaps a creative calling or project that we are passionate about.
For how it may influence you personally look where you have early degrees of air and fire signs in your chart.
If you have any plants or points there you are very personally ‘plugged into’ this energy, and can anticipate something new and exciting being ignited!
What does Uranus in Gemini mean for you personally?
For how Uranus may personally influence you, look where you have early degrees of Gemini in your chart. Early degrees of Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces, will also be strongly feeling the influence as Uranus will square Virgo and Pisces placements and be opposite Sagittarius placements.
With Uranus being a planet where we know to “expect the unexpected” being prepared to flow with sudden change, and ready to embrace a flexible and adaptable approach to any disruption is our best bet.
In astrology the houses show ‘where’ in life, what specific areas the energies play out. To see which areas of life Uranus will spark a personal change check out your Sun, and/or Rising sign. If you know your Rising sign this is more accurate, as this precisely aligns the houses with your exact moment of birth. Your Sun sign is a valid secondary reference, and provides a broader more generalised overview.
