Our world is currently in the grip of the trickster archetype, represented in astrology by Uranus. Like Coyote of Native American lore, the trickster sows confusion by asserting up is down, hot is cold, and day is night. Ideally, this forces a reset of perspective, so that we can regain clarity and freedom as we realign with sacred and shared values. But often the trickster shows up as a cunning and cruel tyrant, fabricating webs of lies that make the truth all but impossible to accurately discern.
Many astrologers consider the planet Uranus to be more appropriately associated to Prometheus, the trickster titan who stole fire from Zeus and gave it to humanity. Fire illuminates what was hidden in the dark, offering us new perspectives and choices. What unconscious dynamics is the trickster trying to help us see so that we may integrate them and change the direction they are pushing us towards?
After a brief introduction, we will engage in a group discussion around Uranus and the trickster. We will look at upcoming transits of Uranus that may inspire hope and clarify our dreams for the world the trickster is helping us create.
