Just in time for the third eclipse of 2025, lightning bolts of electricity ignite the sky above us! On Friday, September 5, at 9:51 p.m. PST, Uranus, the planet of radical change, goes retrograde in the zodiac sign of Gemini. When a planet goes retrograde, it super-charges the sky, infusing us with its energy. Since Gemini is a sign connected with the mind, expect your mind to be busy now. Besides overseeing the overall concept of change, Uranus rules intuition and the kind of inspiration that is required to see things from a new perspective.
Uranus goes retrograde once a year for about four months, but in 2025, its retrograde is much more meaningful due to this planet changing signs, which hasn’t happened since 2018. Uranus, along with three other outer planets, is responsible for changing the overall narrative of our reality. After all, 2025 and 2026 are game-changing years that not only ask us, but push us to adapt to a new reality and a new way of looking and approaching the world around us.
The Uranus retrograde ritual below is designed to help you attune to the energy of this planet, as it super-charges the sky with its trance-inducing energy of intuition and brilliance.
GATHER your tools: You will need Sandalwood Incense, the I am Intuition Affirmation Rollerball, a pen, and paper.
LIGHT your Sandalwood Incense, allowing the smoke to gently purify your aura and the space around you. Breathe in deeply, and as you exhale, imagine old thought patterns leaving your body.
ACTIVATE your intuition by applying the I Am Intuitive Affirmation Rollerball to your third eye, temples, and heart center. With each touch, repeat the following mantra aloud: “I trust my evolving mind. I am open to unexpected insight.”
CLOSE your eyes and sit in stillness in quiet reflection for a few minutes. Let your thoughts drift. You may feel restlessness, flashes of memory, or intuitive nudges. Just observe how your mind tunes into the electric wisdom of the planet Uranus.
WRITE down any unusual symbols, ideas, or flashes of insight only after your mind has entered a quieter zone, and keep your notes for future reading.
ANCHOR the energy once you feel like you’ve completed your ritual by whispering the following mantra two times: “I release what no longer serves and welcome mental freedom.
LET the incense burn down as a symbol of your mind opening to a new reality.
