Uranus Conjunct Saturn applying (freedom burdens effort)
Expect change now. Change, while inevitable, breathes new life into old structures. The more you fight change the more jolting it is. Sudden change is the result of past suppression. Welcome change and you welcome new opportunity.

Remember your dreams now since dreams and new ideas are inspirational. You are sensitive to others and may understand their thoughts instantly. However, clear, logical thinking is not your forte now.
