No pressure though.
I'm just learning about this Uranus-trauma theory. From the same school of thought:
I approach this in a spirit of, "Is this TRUE, or is this just convincing-sounding mumbo-jumbo?"
I think these videos aren't the best way to learn for real, just to get a sample of the flavor of the idea.

Aquarius
Aquarius, ruled by Uranus, Fixed, Air and Yang. Aquarius correlates with the archetype
of liberation – liberation from conditioning patterns as set down by Capricorn with regard
to parents, family, and society or nation. Also liberation from conditioning based on pastlife
memories. The Uranian element of consciousness corresponds to long-term memory
(as the higher octave of Mercury which is short-term memory) and holds in the
individuated unconscious or subconscious memories of our own unique experiences in
this and in other lives. Can we remember exactly what happened 3 weeks ago? These
memories go into the Uranian memory, just as memories form other lives (where we
were conditioned by other societies and families than our present one). So the ultimate
intention of Uranus/Aquarius is absolute liberation form all causes of conditioning – in
order to arrive at what Buddhists call the Vajra or diamond nature: the truly
unconditioned, liberated nature. Clearly this is a long journey in evolutionary terms.
The act of rebellion is central to Uranus/Aquarius, rebellion from existing
authority or circumstances to allow evolution and individuation to proceed. The problem
in Capricorn is conformity (relative to Cancer and peoples’ needs to feel emotionally
secure), which creates the sheep effect, following everyone else. Uranus/Aquarius asks
the question do you wish to embrace your own unique identity and path to creative selfactualization
(the Leo polarity). This demands that you confront your fear of being
insecure (the inconjunct to Cancer from Aquarius) and create security purely from within
(individuation). As this individuation begins the person begins to vibrate differently,
attracting people of like mind to them.
Aquarius will describe 3 distinct types of grouping within the social sphere:
1) A small percentage of social heretics/iconoclasts who will absolutely rebel
from any type of external pressure to be anything other than what they are. These people
are typically totally individualistic in a state of splendid isolation.
2) Another small group of political revolutionaries like Karl Marx for example
who form allegiances with others of like mind toward forming pockets of resistance or
movements toward social change.
An immature expression of this group is found in the typical teenage rebellion
where by its very nature it typically conforms to all sorts of consensus dictates of fashion
and taste and is in reality typically an expression of another consensus, just one that
differs from the older generations.
3) A very small percentage of social dinosaurs, people who (relative to the
Saturn co-rulership of Aquarius) are trying to embrace some prior value
system, to resurrect it from another time.
For most of us the vibrational nature of Uranus will manifest in the need to bring together
folks of a like-minded nature. A bit like a group studying Evolutionary Astrology
together, a subject that by the prevailing consensus standard would be deemed as at best
worthless and at worst dangerous!
As Neptune and Uranus moved through Capricorn we say the phenomena of social
change or revolution as the depression (Capricorn) of the people created the inner need
for liberation (Aquarius) and we saw the fall of the eastern bloc and various civil wars
and national struggles. It seems that as a collective we need things to become tyrannical
(Capricorn) or just a whole lot worse before we can embrace collective change – that as
we are approaching the beginning of a new Astrological Age, that of Aquarius is desired.
Where you find Uranus in your natal chart (house, sign, aspects), the sign
Aquarius, the 11th house show specifically that areas that your soul can access the
liberation form existing conditioning that it might seek. For example Uranus in the 8th
house corresponds with an intention to liberate from all the fears of betrayal,
abandonment, loss and violations of trust that have been experienced. This can happen
through examination of the causal factors in operation. Uranus in the 4th house indicates
the potential to radically alter the way that you see yourself.
The essence of the projected creation is electrical, the essence of the brain is
electrical, Uranus corresponds with what we might call the ‘higher mind’ the potential to
project the electrical nature of consciousness into new forms, to create one’s own reality
within the limitations of one’s karma and the space-time universe (Saturn, co-ruler). The
Uranian mind is like a radio receiver through which we can tune into other vibrations and
the electrical energy of aspects of the creation itself. As Uranus transited Capricorn (the
space-time Reality) life itself has begun to speed up, there has been a collective
quickening of the vibration on planet earth. This includes a quickening of the metabolism
of the entities upon the planet – ourselves! The regulator of the metabolism in the body is
the thyroid and the production of iodine that it regulates, Capricorn rules them and the
effect of Uranus has been the quickening. The function of this speeding up of perception
and of time itself on our planet right now relates to the function within the brain that
Uranus has through the formation of dendrites. Dendrites are responsible for new
connections within the brain – literally the ‘aha!’ moments we have as a new idea comes,
or an existing conundrum receives an answer. So a rapid evolution is occurring in human
thought (a preparation for a new Astrological Age?). This quickening serves to disrupt
conditioned sleep patterns (a new generation who are awake whenever they are awake,
not necessarily in the day!) and to create erratic and incomplete thought patterns as the
brain seeks to catch up (as it were).
The simplest way to know your deeper self and how it is endeavoring to operate
in your life right now is to pay attention to the types of thoughts that are occurring inside
you of their own volition (no just analytical thinking!), no matter how incomplete or
seemingly unusual they are. These thoughts, the ones that surface time and time again
will always implicate your future. Aquarius/Uranus is long-term memory that as well as
holding past life memories holds a future blueprint, a field awareness of your larger
potential (a bit like the morphogenetic fields the evolutionary biologist Rupert Sheldrake
has found in the organisms and structures of nature). These blueprints of actualization can
be both individual and collective. Dane Rudhyar, an Astrologer and Evolutionary
Philosopher who influenced Jeffrey enormously (the work on phases which we will come
to began with Rudhyar’s) held a concept of ‘seed people’ – that there will be certain
people whose consciousness are receptive who will begin to seed the ideas of the new
Astrological Age for others."
