Uranus Aspects: 43 Combinations with the Other Nine Planets
Uranus, Neptune and Pluto move so slowly that they stay in one sign for years or even decades, so their signs describe a whole generation. For the individual, what matters is the house they occupy and their aspects to the personal planets. When Uranus forms an aspect with another planet, the two forces have to be read together. Below, a table first lists Uranus’s aspects to the other nine planets with how often each occurs, followed by a one-line reading for every combination; each has its own detailed page.

Uranus’s aspects to the slow planets are shared by a whole group
Uranus moves slowly, spending many years in each sign. Its aspects to Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Pluto are in the charts of everyone born around the same time, and describe the common backdrop of that period. Uranus’s aspects to the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus and Mars are the ones that differ from person to person, and they come first when reading an individual chart. The table shows the years since 1930 in which Uranus formed each aspect with the other slow planets:

When Uranus is unaspected
Now and then Uranus forms no major aspect with any of the other nine planets; it is then called unaspected. In our calculations, Uranus is unaspected in about 3.7% of charts. Tradition holds that an unaspected planet works more on its own: what it stands for may come and go, or only become obvious at a certain stage of life.
Uranus’s aspects to each planet, in one line
Uranus and the Sun
- Sun Conjunct Uranus: With the Sun conjunct Uranus, a current of restless originality runs through your identity. Living by someone else’s script is hard for you; being different is simply who you are, and it keeps life eventful.
- Sun Sextile Uranus: With the Sun sextile Uranus, two signs apart, your identity and your appetite for the new get along well. You take to fresh ideas quickly, and when you act on them, inspiration becomes part of your signature.
- Sun Square Uranus: With the Sun square Uranus, just as you settle into being yourself, an urge that something must change breaks in. Life takes sharp turns, and they push you toward real independence.
- Sun Trine Uranus: With the Sun trine Uranus, in signs of the same element, being yourself and seeking the new go hand in hand. You’re different without strain, ideas come easily, and it’s easy to take them for granted.
- Sun Opposite Uranus: With the Sun opposite Uranus, steady selfhood and the urge to break everything sit at opposite ends. Change often arrives through other people, and in relationships you learn to own your freedom.
Uranus and the Moon
- Moon Conjunct Uranus: With the Moon and Uranus pressed together, emotions arrive fast and change fast. You need a great deal of freedom to feel safe, and a life that is too fixed makes you fidget.
- Moon Sextile Uranus: With the Moon and Uranus two signs apart, security and the taste for novelty can help each other. As long as you are willing to try things, change is something you find interesting.
- Moon Square Uranus: With the Moon and Uranus colliding, one side longs for someone to lean on and the other cannot bear being tied down. Your moods turn suddenly, and that pushes you to walk your own road.
- Moon Trine Uranus: With the Moon and Uranus in signs of the same element, independence and security do not conflict in you. You quite naturally live a little differently from others and feel no need to explain.
- Moon Opposite Uranus: With the Moon and Uranus far apart and face to face, you want steady company yet keep meeting people who will not be held, or become the one who leaves first. The lesson is to claim your own freedom.
Uranus and Mercury
- Mercury Conjunct Uranus: With Mercury and Uranus side by side, ideas arrive fast and in leaps. You often see the answer a step ahead of everyone else, and you rarely talk by the usual rules.
- Mercury Sextile Uranus: With Mercury and Uranus two signs apart, your everyday thinking is orderly, yet you can step outside the box when needed. That flexibility only becomes a skill if you put it to use.
- Mercury Square Uranus: With Mercury and Uranus clashing, your mind races and your words come out blunt, so you often rub against the established rules. Over time that friction builds strong independent thinking.
- Mercury Trine Uranus: With Mercury and Uranus in signs of the same element, your thinking is fluent and original. Grasping new things is as natural as breathing, which is why you hardly consider it a talent.
- Mercury Opposite Uranus: With Mercury and Uranus at opposite ends, one side of you wants to sound reasonable and the other wants to overturn convention. You keep meeting people who scramble your train of thought.
Uranus and Venus
- Venus Conjunct Uranus: With Venus and Uranus side by side, the way you fall for someone carries an electric charge. It comes fast and needs room, and neither your taste nor your love life follows the usual rules.
- Venus Sextile Uranus: With Venus and Uranus two signs apart, closeness and freedom get along. As long as you take the lead in arranging some change, both your relationships and your creativity stay lively.
- Venus Square Uranus: With Venus and Uranus at odds, you need air as soon as you get close and feel lonely as soon as you are free. Your love life has big swings, and it pushes you to find your own way of being with someone.
- Venus Trine Uranus: With Venus and Uranus in signs of the same element, closeness and freedom coexist naturally. Your taste and your way of loving are relaxed and unusual, though you tend to treat that as nothing special.
- Venus Opposite Uranus: With Venus and Uranus facing each other, one end wants company and the other wants independence. You often meet people who come close and then drift off, and see in them the side of yourself you have not claimed.
Uranus and Mars
- Mars Conjunct Uranus: With Mars and Uranus side by side, you act fast and without warning. You are independent and willing to try new routes, and also short on patience, ready to overturn everything the moment something feels off.
- Mars Sextile Uranus: Mars and Uranus sit two signs apart, so action and inventiveness answer each other. If you take the initiative to try different approaches, you can turn a flash of insight into real results.
- Mars Square Uranus: Mars and Uranus jam each other. The moment you feel restricted you want to rebel, acting in haste and changing course sharply. Once the edges are worn down, you become a reformer who dares to break through.
- Mars Trine Uranus: Mars and Uranus fall in signs of the same element, so action and inspiration are naturally in sync. You work briskly and with originality, and you tend to treat that agility as nothing out of the ordinary.
- Mars Opposite Uranus: Mars and Uranus face each other across the chart. What you set out to do keeps getting upended by someone else’s sudden change of mind, and your relationships pull back and forth between freedom and going along.
Uranus and Jupiter
- Jupiter Conjunct Uranus: When Jupiter and Uranus meet, the urge to expand runs into the urge to shake things up, and people born in that window tend to get restless the moment a new possibility appears.
- Jupiter Sextile Uranus: With Jupiter and Uranus two signs apart, the drive to grow and the taste for novelty help each other along, and those who take the initiative can often turn a new idea into a real way forward.
- Jupiter Square Uranus: Jupiter and Uranus push against each other here, the wish to expand pulling one way and the urge to break free pulling the other. This whole group shares a restlessness with the status quo and an unusual appetite for risk.
- Jupiter Trine Uranus: With Jupiter and Uranus in signs of the same element, growth and innovation fall naturally into step. This group usually handles change with ease, and tends to treat good luck as nothing out of the ordinary.
- Jupiter Opposite Uranus: Jupiter and Uranus face each other across the sky, one end wanting to grow steadily by its beliefs and the other wanting to tear it all up and start again. This group often meets, in other people, the changes they do not dare make themselves.
Uranus and Saturn
- Saturn Conjunct Uranus: When Saturn and Uranus meet, rules and breakthroughs are bound into a single thing, and people born in those one or two years often end up changing the system from inside it.
- Saturn Sextile Uranus: With Saturn and Uranus two signs apart, rules and fresh ideas are on speaking terms. People born in this stretch, if they are willing to act, can make changes that are both steady and lasting.
- Saturn Square Uranus: Saturn and Uranus push against each other here, order and freedom each refusing to yield. People born in this stretch often work out a method of their own under pressure.
- Saturn Trine Uranus: With Saturn and Uranus in signs of the same element, order and fresh ideas are natural allies. People born in this stretch change without much strain, and do not find that remarkable.
- Saturn Opposite Uranus: Saturn and Uranus face each other across the zodiac, tradition on one side and change on the other. People born in this stretch often meet, in someone else, the end they have not lived out themselves.
Uranus and Neptune
- Uranus Conjunct Neptune: When Uranus and Neptune travel together, the urge for the new and the longing for an ideal merge into one current, a shared undertone for people born around the nineties.
- Uranus Sextile Neptune: With Uranus and Neptune two signs apart, innovative thinking and inner ideals lend each other a hand, and most people born in the late sixties carry this aspect.
- Uranus Square Neptune: Uranus and Neptune get in each other’s way here, the urge to break through and the ideal one wants to believe in pointing different ways, a tension shared by people born in the fifties.
- Uranus Trine Neptune: With Uranus and Neptune in signs of the same element, the force for the new and inner conviction link up smoothly, a foundation shared by those born from the late thirties through the early forties.
Uranus and Pluto
- Uranus Conjunct Pluto: When Uranus and Pluto travel together, the urge for change and the power of total replacement become one, a deep drive shared by people born in the mid-sixties.
- Uranus Sextile Pluto: With Uranus and Pluto two signs apart, innovation and deep change can help each other, and people born in the forties and in the mid-nineties both have this aspect.
- Uranus Square Pluto: Uranus and Pluto collide here, the urge for change running into the collapse and rebuilding of deep structures, an aspect shared by people born in the early thirties and in the twenty-tens.
- Uranus Trine Pluto: With Uranus and Pluto in signs of the same element, reform and deep change flow along together, an aspect shared by people born in the nineteen-twenties and in the late twenty-twenties.

A straight word: read an aspect as part of the whole chart
A single aspect describes the relationship between two planets. A chart has well over a dozen aspects on average, and they reinforce and offset one another. The same aspect in different signs and houses, with a tight orb or a loose one, can look very different in real life. Planetary positions are astronomical facts and can be calculated precisely; what an aspect means is astrological tradition, not scientific law. Everything on this site is for reference and entertainment only; for health, investment or legal matters, please consult a professional.

Uranus aspects FAQ
Which Uranus aspect is the best?
None of them is best. Trines and sextiles come easily; squares and oppositions bring pressure and also drive; a conjunction depends on which planet Uranus is joined to. Start with the aspect that has the smallest orb, since that is Uranus’s most noticeable interaction in your chart.
How do I find out which aspects my Uranus has?
Cast a birth chart with your birth date, time and place. Our birth chart calculator lists the aspects from the tightest orb to the widest. Uranus’s aspects can mostly be worked out from the birthday alone.
What does it mean if Uranus has no aspects?
It means Uranus forms none of the five major aspects with the other nine planets, which happens in about 3.7% of charts in our calculations. The traditional reading is that the planet works more on its own: what it stands for is less tied in with the rest of the chart, standing out strongly at some times and seeming disconnected at others.
