This page is about all Uranus-Moon aspects, like Uranus Conjunct Moon, Uranus Opposite Moon, Uranus Trine Moon, Uranus Square Moon, Uranus Sextile Moon, Uranus Inconjunct Moon. Hard aspects like conjunctions, squares, and oppositions tend to be more difficult than soft aspects like trines or sextiles. The closer the orb, the more intense the aspect.
We have a page about Uranus. I also highly recommend Liz Greene’s book The Art of Stealing Fire.

About the Uranus Growth Journey
The Uranus growth journey involves coming to terms with a degree of instability. This is going to be hardest for the Moon and its corresponding sign (Cancer) and house (4th), because the Moon is all about security and comfort.
The growth journey involves detachment, which sometimes is very difficult. Sometimes Uranus shows up in our lives through other people or outside events that rip away our security. Sometimes it is just an inner fear that we have to work through.
What Uranus wants from us is to lift our vision higher, to see the bigger picture, that is beyond our human life and the attachments we have. It wants us to rely on our connection to a higher truth or wider perspective. The price of Uranian inspiration is that it brings us to some extent away from ordinary human life. We might feel lonely or alienated as we come to realize what makes us different.
The other risk of Uranus is losing ourselves in its collective energy. To hold Uranian energy well, we must develop our Saturn discipline and Solar individuality. In other words, we must have a strong ego and clear personal goals we want to achieve. Otherwise, our individuality may get lost in the spirit of Uranus prompting us to enact its vision of a better world.
If we can manage to weather these challenges and develop oureselves to be able to handle Uranian energy in a sustainable way, the reward is genius and liberation.
