The Story of Prometheus and it’s Ties to the Uranus/Aquarian Archetype.
☼
To summarize, Uranus is the planet that co-rules Aquarius. It has been making itself widely known over the past 4 years as Saturn made it’s way through Aquarius, and Pluto has been dancing in and out of Aquarius the past couple years. With Pluto about to ingress into Aquarius this month and remaining for the next 20 years, we should really look into the deeper meaning of it’s co-ruler Uranus and what that means for humanity.

Lets start with the modern pop astrology definition for Uranus. This planet is known for innovation, sudden change, the mad scientist, the eccentric, evolution, technology, space exploration, the future, electricity, the light bringer, electric shock, rebellion against corrupt authority, living in truth, technological global communications, lightning, and aliens to name a few. It’s the evolutionary planet we must go through in order to live in the higher frequency of Neptune (spiritual ascension and global unity). It follows after the planet Saturn (boundaries, discipline, hierarchy, government, restrictions, and hard truths)—showcasing how rebellion is most commonly the outcome that follows restrictions. Uranus’s main vision is to bring power back to the people and away from aristocratic (Saturn) influence in order to unite humanity to a free system which allows us to live in complete honesty and truth—essentially creating a spiritual unity amongst everyone (Neptune). If there was no Uranus cycle to separate the planets Saturn and Neptune, we would end up with a society that lives within it’s dillusion of Saturnian (Aristocratic and Governmental) influence, as there was no influence to shine light on the nefarious saturnian activities. Uranus is considered to be the first of what is considered to be “the collective planets”, meaning Uranus, in modern astrology, represents collective consciousness rather than our own personal consciousness of those from old world astrology. Therefore, you could say that once the cycle turns into collective planets such as Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto— it’s the starting point to a global awakening. As Aquarius is co-owned by Saturn and Uranus, this sign is known to be the gatekeeper of collective consciousness (symbolized by the sacred vessel that contains and holds the water of life). It’s for this reason, that I believe Aquarians can be known to be outspoken and in some ways judgemental—for as if one is to pass through the cycle of the material world to the spiritual world, one must be checked to see if they are truly with the collective or working for their own nefarious purpose. In order to pass through Uranus, one needs to not be afraid of critique, embrace absolute openness in regards to freedom and freedom of speech, and to allow God’s truth to be the pillar of innovation.

Cue Prometheus (meaning—foresight)— the rebellious mythological titan god that rejects conformity by stealing fire from the gods and bringing it to the people. As the tale goes, Prometheus had the task of dividing meat for the people and meat for the gods. Prometheus, who began questioning the divide between the gods and the people, decided to trick the god Zeus by giving him bones wrapped in fat and giving all the meat to the people. This changed the dynamic which allowed humans from that day forward to keep the meat for themselves and sacrifice the bones to the gods. Essentially flipping the script and making sure the people receive the foods while the gods feast on the remains. This angered Zeus, who then chose to hide the gift of fire (light)(consciousness) from the humans. Prometheus, who was becoming more humanitarian by the day, rebelled by stealing the fire from Olympus and bringing it back to Earth in a fennel stack. This angered Zeus even more—calling him to create “Pandora”, a devious and beautiful mortal. The God’s loved this as her beauty shielded her evilness. “This creature was Pandora, the very first woman in history: “of her,” writes Hesiod, “is the deadly race and tribe of women who live amongst mortal men to their great trouble, no helpmeets in hateful poverty, but only in wealth.” Prometheus protested Pandora coming to Earth and was essentially right in his foresight, as soon after coming to Earth, Pandora opened the jar she brought with herself and brought out all sorts of diseases and pains that have “plagued humanity” ever since. Zeus, still full of rage, also punished Prometheus further by chaining him to a rock and sending an eagle to prey on his liver every day, regenerating at night, and repeating this attack everyday. Eventually Zeus’s son Hercules shot the eagle and freed Prometheus from his daily, antagonizing attacks.

This chaotic tale represents the sacrifice that an individual must go through in order to be the leader of any sort of counter culture. He went against the grain of order amongst the gods, exploiting their greediness and hypocrisy, and instead brought the truth, light, fire, and consciousness to the humankind. Remember, he too is one of the Gods, which gives us insight that not all elitists are out for themselves. This myth doesn’t just stay in old mythological times, but it seems to be a repeating cycle amongst any evolutionary genius within every generation. It highlights the idea that the one who carries the foresight into the future of mankind, must essentially sacrifice their own hierarchal standing in order to evolve mankind. A great example of Uranian-like personalities would be Albert Einstein, Nicola Tesla, Elon Musk, Galileo, Aristarchus, Jordan Peterson and so on. Every one of these characters, had an evolutionary and revolutionary idea or ideas that would disrupt the current state of consciousness within man. Humans are comfortable creatures of habit, as we are essentially formed from the animal kingdom ourselves, however, we have the ability to evolve quicker than any animal on Earth due to our level of consciousness and ability to adapt to harsh conditions. Every generation needs a genius, however every generation seems to ridicule the genius rather than appreciate them while they are alive. It’s as if the curse of Zeus always asks for this genius to sacrifice themselves for their cause, do everything to poison humanity to stop it, but eventually frees the idea to the collective— leaving behind a scientific or revolutionary legacy of whoever brought that fourth. In astrological terms, it’s as if we must sacrifice our hierarchal placement in society (Saturn) in order to bring fourth a new world for humanity (Uranus). This may describe why the Aquarius stereotype is known to “go it alone” or “always be the outcast”, perhaps because their insight into the future is known for rejection before it’s accepted.

Now I will ask you, do you believe we are living with an opened Pandoras box? A curse from the gods in light of conscious awakening brought on by Uranian-like characters? The lies our media has told that portrayed that beauty and narcissism be fought for over the bellies of the people? Sucking us into the Earth rather than allowing us to evolve beyond the Earth? War begins when evolution stagnates. If you were to lock somebody in a room without the nutrition and ability to grow, their body would start attacking itself. The same could be said for a collective, that without the ability to evolve, we start attacking each other. The lies and manipulation done to females to disconnect from their wombs and to call their potential babies “parasites”. The attack on hormonal homeostasis by the introduction of harmful birth control and antidepressants that interfere with our oxytocin production — love and connection hormone. All perpetuated by a party led by a “beautiful” female, but hidden beneath the “perfect” surface presides to be dark and diseased energy. Much of this makes sense when you study the history of a Mars-Pluto opposition that we are currently going through—a topic to save for another day.

To tie back the astrology, Pluto moves into Aquarius (ruled by Uranus) this month for 20 so odd years. This is an energy we have all felt building since 2020. On top of that, Uranus moves into Gemini midway 2025 which will take us out of changes to our values, relationships, finances, and food— to how we communicate, our news source, our transport, technology, our education system, and it will all happen in true FAST Gemini fashion. This is why the media is dying—as it no longer relates to the people. This transit will make the people in charge of the media—not the hierarchal power structures that we have grown up with. It will become lightning speed fast, and no longer will it be easy to keep secrets the way we used to. Already we see incredible team effort on apps like X to uncover the truth faster than any way we have been able to see it before. It will likely be a messy transition—which is what we are seeing with AI influence, but inevitably, majority of humans are interested in getting to the truth rather than promote a lie. However, the only way to do that is with absolutely no censorship. Uranus is a free planet, so it’s placement in Gemini (communications) means all communication is moving in a free direction. Any person that moves towards censorship will not be aligned in this upcoming 6 year transit.
☼
To summarize, I write this to bring some astrological and mythological clarity to the changing of power structures we are seeing today. To recognize we are heading into a completely new political structure that brings the power to the people in regards to their own news sources, freedom of choice, policies being made to help us evolve rather than devolve, less government and regulations, and a formation of a team that’s equipped with experts who all have different values and opinions to bring to the table. A Uranian future is upon us, a time where we all recognize we have the ability to govern ourselves. Where we embrace radical interdependence, taking ownership of our own health, resources, minds, and ideas—while at the same time being able to work with others in energetic synergy. It’s time to stop silencing our geniuses, rather its time to become Hercules and set them free.
