How the two align
Some astrologers believe that these kinds of hard aspects between planet pairs can create friction between them, causing tension within romantic relationships or close friendships. This alignment will test our relationships, especially with those closest to us.
With Venus in Scorpio—the Sign of passion—in opposition to Uranus—the planet associated with freedom and breaking rules—in Taurus—the sign of stability and security—our intimate partners are likely affected by it. We’re feeling less dependent on one another now, making it harder for Venus-Uranus couples to have an open dialogue.
With Venus in Scorpio opposing Uranus in Taurus, we may be having a hard time integrating our own individual identities into our relationships or friendships. This can make us resentful toward our loved ones because we’ve been faced with separation from them due to their refusal to understand who we truly are. They might also push us away by not respecting our boundaries and pushing for change in ways that threaten our individuality—like asking us to make changes for their sake rather than ours—which makes Venus-Uranus individuals feel restricted or even suffocated.
On top of these issues, Venus-Uranus couples are also likely experiencing major differences in opinions about how they should conduct themselves as a couple, which results in conflict between them. They want to spend more time together, but that might not be what’s best for their personal growth. They want to spend less time together, but it makes them feel insecure when they’re apart; thus creating tension when spending alone time with friends or family members.
How you will be affected
The Venus-Uranus opposition is creating friction. That means Aries, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius and Aquarius all have cause for concern as they feel each other’s pain. But those with planets from about 21° to 30° of either sign have it really rough right now as those folks are being squeezed from both sides by Venus and Uranus.
Other signs will feel uncomfortable during October but not so painful—you might just get a bit irritated every once in awhile and can breathe easy through early November—after that time period though expect some rocky times until mid January.
