Uranus - the Awakener

Planet of unpredictability

Uranus was finally named for the ancient Roman God of the Sky, the first ruler of the universe.

Uranus is the planet of the future, science, invention and revolution. It is concerned with humanitarian pursuits and humanity as a whole. It is the planet of unexpected events and everything that is different, original and unorthodox.

Uranus is the planet that relates to the inner will and secret power, which everyone has. It has a similar influence to Mars, but where Mars is sudden and quick-acting, Uranus is more long-term.
