Uranian cycles

Uranus transits are all about the process of individuation,
Waxing sextile (excitation) at 14 marking end of childhood; the waxing square (friction) at 21 marking end of childish rebellion (realizing limits of culture); the trine (integration) at 28 prepares the way for Saturn return; the opposition (challenge) around 42 is time for our midlife crisis; waning trine (integration) at 56 prepares us for 2nd Saturn return; waning square (friction) at 63 frees us from any need to please according to a social agenda; waning sextile (excitation) at 70 heralds in the golden years; conjunction (intensification) at 84 dignity of knowing who were are because we feel it in our bones.
(from Steven Forrest's The Changing Sky)
