Uranus retrogrades are famous for pendulum swings. They're not as abrupt in their about-faces as a typical Uranus transit, but they can be just as absolute and uncompromising. Let's say you've spent months rallying against a cause, refusing to yield an inch on a hotly contested point or even considering seeing things from a different perspective. Well, when that pendulum swings – like it will on September 1st – you may find yourself waking up on a different side of the brain. You may start to embrace (if not exactly champion) the very things you once found objectionable. But instead of it hitting you suddenly like a bolt out of the blue, this realization will gradually dawn on you over the next few months so that the changes you elect to make are more gradual and long-lasting. Uranus will be retrograde until January 30th.
