The Day I Stopped Becoming and Started Being ~ Uranus Direct in My 1st House


Today is not subtle.

Uranus, the planet of awakening, disruption, liberation, and radical authenticity, stations direct in my 1st house of Taurus. And for me, this isn’t an abstract transit. This is personal. Physical. Identity-level. Embodied.

The 1st house is the house of self:

  • my body

  • my presence

  • how I show up in the world

  • my confidence

  • my leadership

  • my identity

And Uranus has been moving through this part of my chart for years, quietly (and sometimes not so quietly) dismantling the version of me that was built on survival, conditioning, obligation, and old safety.

Now it moves forward.

Not as chaos.
As clarity.

The Timeline

  • May 15, 2018: Uranus enters Taurus for the first time

  • Nov 6, 2018: Uranus retrogrades back into Aries

  • March 6, 2019: Uranus re-enters Taurus for the long stay

  • It remains in Taurus until July 7, 2025 (Teddy's 1st Birthday) and briefly enters Gemini

  • Nov 7, 2025: Uranus retrogrades back into Taurus one last time

  • February 3rd, 2026: Uranus stations direct in Taurus

  • April 26, 2026: Uranus leaves Taurus for good

What Uranus in Taurus in the 1st House Has Been Doing to Me

Taurus loves stability. Security. Comfort. Predictability.

Uranus wants none of that.

So this transit has been a long, slow awakening where the parts of me that tried to hold it all together have been forced to loosen their grip.

I’ve watched:

  • old identities fall away

  • roles I played for other people stop fitting

  • my relationship to money, body, work, and value completely rewire

  • the version of me that was “acceptable” dissolve

This has been the transit of realizing: I cannot build a new life from an old self-concept.

Uranus in my 1st house has been quietly asking one question for years:

“Who are you when you stop trying to be who you think you’re supposed to be?”

Why Today Matters ~ The Direct Station

When a planet stations direct, its energy stops turning inward and begins to express outward.

This is the shift from:

  • internal processing → external embodiment

  • awareness → action

  • knowing → being

Everything Uranus has been breaking apart inside me is now ready to be lived.

This is not the start of change. This is the start of expression.

Taurus, the Body, and My Physical Reality

Taurus rules the physical body. The senses. The material world.

So this transit has not been theoretical. It’s shown up in:

  • my relationship to my health

  • how I treat my body

  • how I carry myself

  • how I present myself

  • how I value myself

  • how I make and hold money

This is why the body changes, the habits change, the standards change, the environment changes.

Uranus in Taurus in the 1st says:

Your outer world cannot stay the same when your inner value system changes.

And mine has.

Radically.

What makes this transit even more personal for me is that my 1st house in Taurus is also where Chiron lives, which is the wound around identity, worth, and safety in simply being.

Long before Uranus arrived here to liberate me, Chiron marked this part of my chart as a place where I learned that my value came from what I could hold together for everyone else.

Uranus hasn’t just been changing me. It’s been healing the place I built my old identity from.

The Identity Upgrade

This is the end of:

  • playing small

  • explaining myself

  • justifying my vision

  • dimming my power to make others comfortable

  • living in survival mode while dreaming of abundance

This is the beginning of living as the woman who:

  • trusts her intuition

  • trusts her vision

  • trusts her ability to create wealth

  • trusts her leadership

  • trusts her uniqueness

Not someday.

Now.

The Nervous System Piece (The Part No One Talks About)

Uranus is electricity. The nervous system. Sudden awareness.

For years, this transit has been recalibrating my nervous system to handle:

  • more money

  • more responsibility

  • more visibility

  • more leadership

  • more freedom

You don’t step into a bigger life with a nervous system built for survival.

You upgrade the wiring first.

That’s what this transit has been doing.

And today, the current starts flowing forward.

What This Means for Me Right Now

This is a moment where I stop becoming and start being.

The version of me I’ve been seeing in visions, journaling about, designing my life around, aligning my work to, she is no longer future tense.

She is present tense.

This is where:

  • my body matches my vision

  • my work matches my capacity

  • my standards match my worth

  • my life matches my inner knowing

Uranus direct in my 1st house is a declaration:

I am no longer rearranging my life to fit the old me.
I am rearranging my life to match who I actually am.

The Liberation of Taurus

Taurus doesn’t like change.

But once Taurus chooses change, it becomes unstoppable. This has shown up in my life over and over and over again. 

This is the grounded, embodied, calm kind of revolution.

Not chaos.

Alignment.

I’m not chasing a new identity. I’m settling into my true one.

February 3, 2026 = The Line in the Sand

This is a day I will look back on.

Because this is the day the internal shift becomes visible in my:

  • posture

  • voice

  • decisions

  • standards

  • work

  • money

  • presence

This is the day I stop negotiating with a version of me that no longer exists.

Uranus is no longer asking me to wake up.

I’m awake.

Now I move.
