If you have a Moon/Uranus aspect, then you are probably a fan of Andrew Zimmern of Bizarre Foods. If you don’t know who he is, you would be a fan if you did.  Forget about Mikey, the kid from the Life cereal commercials, Andrew is the guy who really eats everything.



Wikipedia says Andrew Zimmern was born on July 4, 1961 in New York, New York. Depending on what time of day he was born, he has a biquintile or sesquiquadrate between the Moon and Uranus (or no aspect at all- say it isn’t so!) His Moon can be in Pisces or Aries, but it’s most likely in Aries. You’d have to be brave to eat the things he eats :D

    Almost every single one of those key phrases describes me, and I have Moon in Virgo in 3rd semisquare Uranus in Libra in 4th.

    Normally I don't pay any attention to semisquares, but this aspect has an orb of 15 minutes, making it my second closest aspect by orb (second only to Saturn trine Uranus with a 14 minute orb) and given those key phrases and my personality, I'm gonna say the semisquare, at least when allowed a small orb, really does work!

      I also have moon in Virgo in 3rd house, but my uranus is trining my moon :D

    I wish there was more in-depth info on semisquares and sesquiquadrates, and even semisextiles. They seem to get glossed over. It's like, “well, they're like the square but less potent.” That's it? What does that mean? Or, more to the point, what does that feel like?

    I think I wrote many versions of nearly the same thing, but I think that finding the right way to say something can trigger an aha! moment.

      If you look at Rudhyar`s chart,he had Moon square Uranus and felt a strong need to abandon the old european identity which he did when uranus was conjunct his moon in 1917

        Those circumstances seem somewhat beyond his control.

        • Pjgecmendes says:

          No, he thought about that before moving

    Dr J Lee Lehman devoted a whole chapter to the semisextile (in the context of the inconjunct, a subcategory of which the semisextile is) in her awesome book “Classical Astrology for Modern Living.”

  4. Grace says:

    Hm. I have Moon quincunx Uranus – and the moon is in Aquarius at that. Nothing terribly bizarre about my eating habits, but much of the rest of what you wrote fits me. I was close with my mother, but she was pretty unusual herself.

    #
  5. Michelle says:

    I'll have to get that book. So many books, so little time.

    I've never taken “less potent” to mean a wide orb. When I wrote “Sesquiquadrates, WTF” a while ago, I read through a bunch of authors and quite a few seemed to think that they, and the semisquare, are “minor” aspects and therefore unimportant.

    It seems to me that many astrologers drag the SSQ and SQ out of the closet when they're looking for an explanation to something they can't explain. That being said, Julie Demboski, of Julie Demboski's Astrology, uses them regularly in her daily transit forecasts.

  6. Michelle says:

    Well, they're possibilities. Not every Moon/Uranus type likes to eat weird food :D

    Did your mother have Uranus in aspect to her Sun or Moon?

    #
  7. Grace says:

    Of course, these are possibilities. If you ever get to absolutes you can stun the “scientific” community with airtight logical proof of astrology! (Sigh. It's fun to think about, huh?)

    I went to check my mother's chart after your question. In fact she did have Uranus opposite her Moon! Three planets in Aquarius as well. Explains a lot…

    #
  8. Michelle says:

    Lol…yeah, right!

    I'm not surprised about that Moon/Uranus connection! :D

    She had a lot of Uranian energy! She must have been cool.

  13. Joyrjw says:

    The descriptions here are really good. :-)
    I love this aspect, this is my habit/routine breaker aspect that gets me out of my ruts and keeps me and my life interesting. :-)

    I have Moon in Virgo 3rd h. Sextile Uranus in Scorpio 5th h.

    I’m really different.
    My mother was/is very different.

    #
    • Michelle says:

      Moon/Uranus is definitely a routine breaker. With the sextile you are probably less disruptive in the way you break routines than someone with the square might be.

      #
      • Anonymous says:

        It’s true, I try not to be disruptive when I decide to make a change.

        It doesn’t always work that way.:-)

        Sometimes, I need to make a change that other’s don’t like so much,
        but I try to be respectful about it if it’s really important.

  14. ann2911 says:

    my 11th house moon in scorpio is in conjuction with the uranus, and it’s the only aspect it has.
    both my parents are aquarius, so my childhood environment was quite suitable for this apsect.
    (also, there is a sextile between 9th house north node in virgo and the 3rd house south node in
    pisces, and the moon, but I don’t know if this counts. uranus only has a sextile with the saturn)

    #
    • Michelle says:

      That’s such an interesting aspect to have, the Moon conjunct Uranus in Scorpio in the 11th house. Your mother must have been very unconventional.

  15. Boris_nervy says:

    add to the fact andrew zimmern went to try filipino food! my hometown :D

    did had a moon(libra) sq uranus(capricorn), and a weird mom who had a tight sun-uranus conjunction. LOL :)

    #
    • Michelle says:

      That’s funny, I have the same connection with my mom.

      Do you like trying unusual foods?

    This Article described me completly. I have moon in virgo (VII house) trine Uranus in Capricorn (XI house). It’s a very close trine. -2 degres of difference. It’s described me cause I have an enourmous interets in astrology (Uranus). Everyday in fact I haunting information on the web (Uranus) from my home (Moon). I have a room completly technological with a lots of wires on the floor :D but I feel comfortably…like it be my habitat. Moon trine Uranus it’s like: My home it’s 2.0 .

    #
    • Michelle says:

      My home it’s 2.0

      Ha! That’s fantastic. Thank you for reading Michele.

    I’m moon trine uranus and hubby is moon opposition uranus this is us to a “T”.I definitely feel much better around freaks. I love the thought of living elsewhere in space and time. The hubby does not like to be fenced in by family dramas. We both prefer weirdness over tradition and are more family with friends than blood relatives. I am known for doing creative things with spices and foods.

    #
    • Michelle says:

      I like the way you put some of these ideas,

      not wanting to be fenced in by family drama
      preferring weirdness to tradition
      living elsewhere in space and time

      I can relate to all of that. I have a Moon-Jupiter-Uranus t-square :)

  19. Pjgecmendes says:

    Moon uranus makes one happy with astrology.This is true but my capricorn sun ,who likes to appear normal and hates abnormality doesnt feel confortable in his identity with this.
    Yet capricorn isnt in bad aspect with the signs where Uaranus and Moon are virgo and Pisces.
    So i assume any planet in aspect to Uranus gets the disapproval from a capricorn sun.
    I wondewr how capricorn astrologers like Bob deal with this?
    Interesting that cappys are the ones who try to prove astrology scientifically,like him and before,Geoffrey Dean and R Smit

    #
    • Michelle says:

      The discomfort might be more from the opposition between the Moon and Uranus than the trine between the Sun and Uranus. 

      #
      • Pjgecmendes says:

        It`s not a trine Uranus is at 0 of virgo suna at 18 capricorn

        #
        • Michelle says:

          Trine by sign but not by degree. Do you ever consider aspects from that point of view?

    Wow this is a wonderful article!
    I have Uranus in 5th conjunct S.Node Sag in Sextile with my IC Moon in Libra.Falling in love via internet (it happened 2 times till now, and many relationships with women started and failed via net). I found out that the falling in love is almost in a second. I become strongly attached and obsessed with that particular girl. It is related to my self-image and self-worth. Somehow, through discussion (Venus in Sag) this girl is fulfilling my needs of being with someone with whom I can be myself, with whom I can express my self naturally and spontaneously.
    I asked my self many times why is this happening via internet and I haven’t found the answer.
    In live I’m the same as I’m via internet. I’m good looking and very communicative. But I guess the unpredictability of Uranus is hiding some lesson here of which I’m not aware of at the moment. 
    With Saturn also in 5th, the lesson is maybe that the internet is not a Reality, it is very much of an Illusion, and I can’t expect to find something meaningful through it, especially if I see that the things are not going well from their beginning (With Pluto ruling my 5th I’m very stubborn in my desires).

  22. Ile says:

    I have Uranus Sextile Moon in exact degree.
    Uranus is in my 5th on S.Node in Sag, while Moon is exactly on my IC.

    It is very powerful aspect. “Wanting to be Free from all the Past”.
    I have a very deep urge to unveil all my past lives to the detail, to clear all my karma and be Free to go to the Future or at least to meet the Present moment with Pureness of my being.
    I have this urge to find remedy for all my previous erroneous action of this life. I want nothing to stop me to look at my future with Freedom. To be a blank state. 
    I don’t know if you’ll understand my viewpoint, some things can not be explained through the rational mind; the meditation is needed. Actually I want to be out of the sequential karmic cause-effect causality. I want to meet my Destiny, Fate, to Clear It. To pure it. 
    This urge leads me toward self-realization process and deeply spiritual and conscious life in this material realm. Uranus is a wonderful planet. If you are with it you are never the same. If you are against it, you will only struggle. You must follow its intentions for your ‘destiny’.

    Moon opposition Uranus. My mother is not only abnormal….she’s a complete nutcase!I am very estranged from family members and relatives who are connected to her.

  24. Mimi says:

    This kind of scares me, maybe because its true: Choosing not to have a family. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A FAMILY AND TO BE A MOTHER ONE DAY, BUT THIS IS ALSO TRUE: Choosing independence over family. ITS STRONGER THAN ME, CAN`T HELP IT.    I AM VERY EMOTIONAL PERSON,BUT I DO HAVE HARD TIME EXPRESSING MY FEELINGS :( :  Having a hard time reconciling warm, caring emotions with the need to be free of constraints. Difficulty demonstrating affection. Preferring to be free and alone rather than with someone and trapped. Crankiness. Occasionally feeling the need to break free from everyone and everything.
