Uranus turns retrograde

You can expect life to settle down when Uranus, the planet of revolution and change, turns retrograde. This is the cosmic energy responsible for the shake-ups and unexpected twists you’ve had to deal with since May. Uranus retrograde will dial down the volatility, bump up the stability, and show a willingness on the part of people in your life to behave themselves and to stop kicking each other under the table. But can things ever return to normal after Uranus has worked its chaos magic? Unlikely. Finding out what has changed and looking for ways to incorporate them into the “new” normal will be the story of your life for the next 5 months. Signs most affected: Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius
