Alright, let’s talk about this whole Uranus in Pisces thing. For the longest time, I just kind of shrugged it off. You know, you hear astrologers talk, and it sounded like a whole lot of woo-woo, maybe some artists getting extra spacey, or everyone suddenly wanting to save the whales, but in a really disorganized way. I didn’t really get it, not in a practical sense.
My “practice,” if you can call it that, really started when things in my own life, and around me, started getting… well, weird. Not bad weird, not always, but definitely unpredictable. It was like the usual rules just didn’t apply anymore. I’d make plans, solid plans, and they’d just dissolve. Or an idea would pop into my head from nowhere, something totally off the wall, and suddenly it felt like the most important thing to pursue.
My Messy Journey with It
I remember this one phase pretty vividly. I was trying to get a small online community going, focused on sharing creative writing. Sounds simple, right? Wrong. It was like trying to nail Jell-O to a tree. One minute, everyone was buzzing with ideas, super compassionate, really into supporting each other. The next, massive misunderstandings, people getting overly sensitive, or just drifting off into their own little worlds. It felt like no one was grounded.
And my own creativity? Man, it was all over the place. I’d start a story with a clear plot, and by page three, it had morphed into something completely different, usually involving some kind of surreal, dream-like imagery that I hadn’t intended at all. I felt like I was losing my grip a bit, honestly. My focus was shot. I’d sit down to work, and an hour later, I’d realize I’d just been staring out the window, lost in some bizarre daydream that felt incredibly real.
Here’s what I started to do, my “process” if you will:
- Just Observe: Instead of fighting it, I started just watching. Watching myself, watching others. How were people reacting? What were the common themes popping up in conversations, in art, in the news even?
- Lean into the Weird: When those strange ideas came, instead of dismissing them, I’d give them a little space. Doodle them, write them down, even if they made no sense.
- Accept Impermanence: This was a big one. I had to get okay with things being fluid, with commitments shifting, with emotions being really strong and then just… gone. It was like everyone was more porous.
It was through this period of, frankly, feeling a bit unhinged and adrift that I started to see a pattern. It wasn’t just random chaos. It was like a collective dissolving of old boundaries, old ways of thinking. The compassion was real, but so was the confusion because the structures we relied on felt like they were made of mist. The “spiritual” stuff wasn’t just fluffy clouds and angels; it was also about facing illusions, collective grief, and this weird, underlying sense of interconnectedness that was both beautiful and overwhelming.
So, what did I actually do? I started a dream journal, a serious one. Not just for me, but I encouraged friends to share weird dreams too. The symbolism was off the charts. I also got into music that was more atmospheric, less structured. I found myself drawn to water, just being near it felt like it helped me process the emotional waves. My “practice” became less about astrological charts and more about feeling the undercurrents.
Looking back, that period taught me a lot about surrender, about the power of imagination (both its light and shadow), and about how real change often starts in that blurry, undefined space where everything feels possible and nothing feels certain. It wasn’t about finding concrete answers, but about learning to swim in a sea of ambiguity. It was messy, super messy, but also incredibly fertile for a different kind of growth, a more intuitive, empathetic kind. That’s my takeaway from really living through that Uranus in Pisces vibe.
