For some modern Western astrologers, Uranus (♅) is the Ruling Planet of Aquarius. Manilius, the Roman poet and author of the epic Astronomica, was unaware of the planet's existence, because it was discovered only in 1781 by Sir William Herschel. Uranus is associated with the principles of genius, new and unconventional ideas, discoveries, inventions, radical politics. Around the period of discovery in 1781, the idea of democracy and the rights of man was prevalent, with the breakaway of the US from England and a few years later in 1789, the French revolution.
