Let’s break down both phases of the retrograde. Uranus begins its backward journey on September 6th and it lasts until February 3rd, 2026. Uranus will be moving in reverse in the air sign Gemini until November 9th, when it re-enters Taurus. Uranus retrograde in Gemini allows us to reassert and discuss innovation and dynamics from the summer that began on July 7th. How we relate to the world has changed, steadily increasing the ways we communicate and receive information (hello, AI!). Now, we are protesting the overuse of technology in our society because it’s negatively affecting the environment, workforce, privacy, information integrity, social equity, and more. Finding ways to ethically and responsibly use AI will be challenging, but starting conversations about it during Uranus’s regression in Gemini is worth it. We may not have the answers, but we should be addressing these concerns and issues. If we use this time wisely, it will prove to be a wonderful opportunity to augment and regulate the use of AI. 

Ruled by Venus, the planet of love and pleasure, and associated with the second house of self-worth, Taurus’ morals and values are tied up in everything they do—even more so than the more flexible, open-minded signs. They’re firm when it comes to their beliefs, and it takes a lot to get them to change their perspectives.
