- The wise will heed these words!! I have Uranus at 28 Cancer, and
- Mars will do its station mightly close to that point. The
- conjunction is pretty close now. In the past few days, I've been
- breaking glasses, banging into things, inadvertently starting
- fires, and I even crashed my boyfriend's car into a curb during a
- severe snowstorm (although it survived without visible damage --
- whew!). But today was the worst so far. It was snowing all day,
- and near sunset (near a trine of the Moon and Mars) the snow
- became lighter, so I invited my boyfriend to go outside and play
- in the snow. After a good snowball fight, we were standing near
- the garage, and I leaned over to wipe snow off the steps to the
- garage. While brushing snow off the bottom step, my feet very
- suddenly gave out from under me, apparently due to ice on the
- ground. I went down so fast, I didn't even have time to realise
- what was happening, let alone stop my fall. (This suddenness and
- speed is characteristic of Mars-Uranus contacts.) I landed with
- my chin on the bottom step, and my left arm got twisted in such a
- funny way that my shoulder became dislocated. OUCH!! It popped
- back into place as I turned over, but the accident left various
- tissues and nerves strained and sore. Given that I almost never
- have any serious bodily injury, this incident is very unusual for
- me. The worst injury I have had previous to this one was a
- sprained ankle. Fortunately, my very kindly boyfriend is taking
- good care of me. (Transiting Venus is conjunct my descendant).
-
- So why did this accident occur today rather than, for example, on
- the day of Mars' retrograde station? Because today there is a
- stellium of four bodies in late Scorpio/early Sag (Sun, Moon,
- Mercury, and Pluto) trining the conjunction of transiting Mars
- and my natal Uranus, forming a Grand Trine with my natal Sun in
- late Pisces. In numerology, the number 3 is associated with
- Jupiter, so I view the trine as Jovian. As such, it tends to
- expand/augment. It does not necessarily bring "good luck",
- although an expansion involving one's bank account might be
- experienced as good fortune. But in expanding the Mars-Uranus
- conjunction, it just makes accidents more likely.
-
- This transit reminds me of the transit of Uranus to my natal Mars
- a few years back. At that time, I had the first car accident I
- had had in nearly 20 years, as a result of a sudden and rash
- movement I made of my vehicle (I backed quickly into a parking
- space for which I had been waiting while someone vacated it
- because I saw another car trying to steal the space from behind;
- in backing up, my bumper put a nice dent in a truck sitting in
- the adjacent lane). While this transit was in orb, I attended a
- seminar given by Donna Van Toen, an excellent interpretive
- astrologer, on transits of the outer planets to natal Mars. The
- seminar was pertinent for me because in close succession I had
- Saturn, Neptune and Uranus conjuncting my Mars by transit, and I
- also had transiting Jupiter opposing my Mars (and boy did I get
- itchy feet; I spent six weeks driving around the states). As
- Donna was discussing the transit of Uranus to Mars, a pane of
- glass in its frame, part of the window, came crashing down,
- landing on its edge and making an awful noise. (The glass did not
- break.) I was closest the window. Donna asked who was having a
- Uranus-Mars transit, so I sheepishly put up my hand and
- apologised to the group for the incident.
-
- During conjunctions of Mars and Uranus, accidents and
- catastrophes don't just happen *to* you, they also happen
- *around* you. Donna claimed that during the transit of Uranus to
- natal Mars, computers and other machines in your vicinity would
- spontaneously break down. So far my computer has not failed me.
- But my boyfriend did break a copper water pipe yesterday while I
- stood next to him, through a rash action. I'm sure it was my
- influence.

- Keywords for Mars-Uranus transits: Crash!! Break. Jolt. Oops!
- Wham! Bang. Yow! Slam. Ouch! Zap. Oh-no! Yikes! Aaaaaaaaaaaa!
