So this shift from Aries to Taurus for the planet of change - Uranus - is a pretty big deal.
Something I noticed that will help with the grounding process is that Uranus (at 0) JUST trines Saturn at 8 degrees. Trines are (the most) harmonious cooperation between planetary forces, in case you didn't know. These two are both in Earth signs (Taurus and Capricorn) and given that, their gift to us tends to be grounding and being down to earth and practical in our judgments, discernment and decision making process.
Eight degrees though!! That's pretty karmic. As in, getting there just by the skin on your teeth! An 8 degree Saturn is something to take special notice of.
Just for curiosity's sake, I decided to check out what Robert Hand has to say about these two. This reading is just these two planets in aspect, regardless of what sign they are in. Check it out. Page 354, Planets in Transit, Life Cycles for Living, Robert Hand, copyright 1976.
"SATURN TRINE URANUS
This is a time of stability and creative balance between the old and the new in your life. You are able to live within a structure and also engage in new and stimulating experiences, which keep you from becoming stale. Any changes you have made or any structures that have been changed in the last several years since Saturn last squared or opposed your natal Uranus, can become a permanent part of your life now. These changes are no longer challenges, but interesting aspects of your life.
You have a feeling of patience about what is happening. You can see the need for change, but you do not feel like rushing out and overthrowing everything. You can make the change in an orderly manner. You can present ideas to others in a very careful, logical way that still manages to impress them with the originality of your thinking. Your employers and superiors will especially appreciate your disciplined approach to new and original ideas.
Any task that requires long and disciplined application - learning a new skill, studying a new body of knowledge or simply working patiently at a long task - is favored by this transit, as long as it is leading up to some kind of creative change. Tedious tasks that leave no room for new experiences will not be so useful to you at this time. You should be working for change, even if slowly and patiently.
In fact, you must not allow yourself to fall into a rut. Otherwise the next square or opposition in this cycle could prove to be very difficult. Even change can become routine, if you go around in circles with the same changes. That is not the proper function of the Saturn-Uranus energies. The critical aspects of this cycle - the conjunction, square and opposition - are made most unpleasant by such an approach. During the trines and sextiles of this cycle you can make changes in a disciplined manner without having to make chaos."
I felt this was pretty constructive and uplifting for a major aspect like this. Don't you think?
Y'all know I follow Q, right?

I saw this today, posted yesterday, 5/20/2018. It just seemed to fit so I thought I would include it here.
"Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints."
– Ephesians 6:10-18
"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails."
– 1 Cor 13:4-13
I especially took notice of the Q posts because of his reference to the Sword of the Spirit, the word of God. One of the visions I have been seeing a LOT lately, in repetition. A sword!! Or the Ace of Swords card. It definitely caught my attention.
