The Sun/Uranus midpoint is associated with the themes of individuality, uniqueness, innovation, and sudden changes. When activated, there may be a strong drive for independence, autonomy, and freedom, as well as an intense need to express one’s creativity and unique vision. There can also be an attraction to “radical” social movements, activism, or alternative lifestyles.
