#350-"It is Only Kindness that Makes Sense Anymore"--Week of Feb. 2, 2026
Sunday, 1 February, 2026
When the Ground Shifts AgainThis week carries a feeling many of us recognize in our bones: something is moving forward again—but not back to what was.Uranus, the planet of disruption, awakening, and radical change, turns direct in Taurus, marking the final stretch of a seven-year cycle that began in 2018. Since then, what once felt stable—finances, ecological systems, bodily safety, and the promise of “normal”—has been steadily unsettled. Taurus governs the ground beneath our feet, and Uranus has been shaking that ground not to punish, but to awaken.As Uranus moves forward for the last months of its time in Taurus, the message is unmistakable: there is no return to the old stability. But there is an opportunity to build something truer.This forward motion does not arrive quietly. Both Mercury and Venus in Aquarius form tense squares to Uranus, pressing our stories, values, and social agreements up against realities that refuse to be managed or smoothed over. Collectively, this shows up as unrest, protest, and outrage—signals that people can feel when systems no longer protect life or reflect shared values. Aquarius gives voice to the people; Uranus refuses compliance with what has become unjust or unsustainable.At the same time, Mercury and Venus also make supportive connections to Chiron in Aries. Alongside anger and rupture, there is a healing process underway around identity, agency, and the right to exist as oneself. Honest conversation and values-based relationship become part of that healing—not by bypassing pain, but by naming it.Later in the week, Mercury enters Pisces for an unusually long stay, shifting the tone from argument to intuition, from certainty to listening. This is not a time for quick solutions. It’s a time to sense what is dissolving and what is quietly asking to emerge.As the week closes, it matters to say this clearly: outrage is not a spiritual failure—it is often a healthy response to real harm. What is equally important to notice is the courage moving alongside it: people supporting one another, organizing without violence, and creating care where institutions have failed. This is not chaos—it is conscience.The astrology cycles of this week do not ask us to harden or look away. They ask us to stay present, embodied, and ethically awake, remembering that collective awakening often begins when we refuse to normalize what wounds life.As you move on from this moment, let your feet find the ground beneath you, and remember that staying human—present, caring, and awake—is already an act of courage.Reflection Questions for the Week:Where has my sense of security already changed—financially, physically, or emotionally—even if I haven’t fully acknowledged it yet? When I feel agitation, anger, or outrage—personally or in response to the collective—what truth might be trying to surface through that energy? Where am I being invited to speak, relate, or choose more honestly—even if it disrupts comfort or agreement?Podcast Poem: Kindness by Naomi Shihab NyeSupport the showGo to Sheila's website for information for transformational resources: https://www.ontheedgesofchange.com/home-page This episode was co-created with generative AI, engaged as a soul-aligned ally in service of transformation.
