Asteria Episode 9: “Holding Polarity: Uranus Enters Gemini”

There are moments when change does not unfold—it erupts. On July 7th, 2025, Uranus, the Great Awakener, entered Gemini, ruled by Mercury, the messenger of the gods. With this shift, the final cosmic lock of the year clicks open, and we stand at a crossroads between the old order and the unknown future.

In this episode, we journey into the archetypal heart of Uranus in Gemini:

Uranus as Prometheus, fire-bringer and liberator of the human spirit.

Mercury as Hermes, the trickster-messenger and bridge between worlds.

The Gemini myth of Castor and Pollux, mortal and immortal twins who teach us that polarity is resolved love and the creation of a third thing greater than either extreme.

We also look back to history—the last two Uranus-in-Gemini cycles that aligned with the U.S. Civil War and WWII—and the catastrophic cost of unhealed division and ask: what if this moment, terrifying as it may be, is not just a warning… but an invitation to become bridge-builders?

From myth to history to the present moment, this is an exploration of how we can hold our fractures differently, turning polarity into paradox, and paradox into possibility.
