Moon Uranus ~ Hard Aspects
Moon Square Uranus
Osho (17’) demonstrates the visionary side of this aspect. The Lunar-Uranian intuitive flashes provided great insights for him. This gave Osho the ability to blend theories of sexual liberation and mysticism to appeal to a western audience.
Osho was known for merging eastern Sufi teaching with western ideas influenced by Reich, Gurdijeff, Freud and D.H Lawrence. Osho’s childhood was unusually liberated, he was separated from his mother as an infant and lived with his grandparents who gave him more freedom than usual. Until the age of seven Osho received no formal education, and he became a rebellious, but gifted student when he did attend.
During his university years Osho was said to be too disruptive as a pupil and as a teacher considered a danger to his pupils morality.
Osho’s Uranian Moon provided the alternative living arrangements for in the shape of his Indian based ashram. However he was eventually relocated to the United States due to his provocative lectures about sexuality and the permissive ambience of his ashram.
Osho sparked controversy eg; His collection of Rolls Royces being a strange companion to his ‘enlightenment’. Moon square Uranus struck again when Osho was deported from the United States. This was due to his followers conducting a very unenlightened bio terror attack on the citizens of the Dalles (In Oregon).
Twenty countries denied Osho entry thereafter; he lived all over world until his death in 1990. In the 21st century his work has finally found its time, and his books are gaining more popularity than when he was alive.
