Where your generation broke the pattern, shared with everyone born within about seven years of you. Enter your birth details below and the answer is computed from the Swiss Ephemeris, the same data professional software uses.
Uranus takes about seven years to cross a sign, so almost everybody your age has the same one. That is worth knowing before reading it as a personal trait.
Roughly 1927 to 1935, and again 2010 to 2019. A generation whose break with what came before is direct and impatient. The tradition associates it with independence taken rather than asked for, and with change that starts before the plan for it exists.
Roughly 1934 to 1942, and again 2018 to 2026. Disruption aimed at money, land and what counts as value. Read as a cohort that inherits an unstable material world and is unusually practical about rebuilding it.
Roughly 1941 to 1949. Disruption in how information moves. Associated with a generation that changed the way things are said and carried, and with restless, inventive thinking held as a shared trait rather than a personal one.
Roughly 1948 to 1956. Disruption at home. Associated with a generation that rewrote what a family is supposed to look like, frequently without having set out to, and with an unsettled feeling about where roots belong.
Roughly 1955 to 1962. Disruption in self-expression. Read as the cohort that made individuality itself the point, and that treats permission to be yourself as something taken rather than granted.
Roughly 1961 to 1969. Disruption in work and health. Associated with a generation that questioned how labour is organised and what medicine is for, and with a shared instinct to take a system apart to see how it actually runs.
Roughly 1968 to 1975. Disruption in partnership. Associated with a generation that renegotiated marriage, divorce and what two people owe each other, and with an unwillingness to accept an arrangement simply because it is the conventional one.
Roughly 1974 to 1981. Disruption in what is hidden. Associated with a cohort that pulled private subjects into public view, and with a shared ease discussing what the generation before it would not.
Roughly 1981 to 1988. Disruption in belief. Read as a generation sceptical of inherited doctrine and unusually willing to assemble its own, borrowing from wherever it finds something that holds.
Roughly 1988 to 1996. Disruption in institutions. Associated with a cohort that came of age watching structures fail, and that is pragmatic rather than idealistic about what should replace them.
Roughly 1995 to 2003. Uranus in the sign it rules in the modern scheme, and read as its clearest expression: a generation defined by networks rather than institutions, and with a native fluency in change.
Roughly 2003 to 2011. Disruption in the imagination. Associated with a cohort for whom the line between what is real and what is rendered was never firm, and with an unforced, undoctrinal spirituality.
A uranus sign is one line of about forty in a birth chart, and reading it alone is how astrology gets its reputation for being vague. The full chart is free and takes the same three details you have just entered.
