The Age of Aquarius

[eyepod]

I keep seeing the term the "Age of Aquarius" being used often on this forum and in various other places usually suggesting we are about to enter this "new age" or have just done so. The term often seems to be used as if it is well known fact that we are upon this age.

I've most often seen this term used on this forum together with various, sometimes oddball beliefs relating to 2012 and often used in attempt to back up claims of ascension, doomsday, awakenings, Nibiru like stories....

But the fact of the matter is that there is absolutely no common consensus as to when the era has or is supposed to even begin and the range of dates given by various sources are absolutely massive - going back as far as 1447 AD to as far in the future as year 3621 :confused:.

So we have a possible range for the Age of Aquarius occuring that noone can even agree on of some 5068 years.....hmmmn ok I won't hold my breath then...

Maybe it was that hippie song from the 60s that did the damage, "...this is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius...." (I quite like this tune actually :cool:)

Now the song effectively gives a date for the AoA with the words "When the Moon is in the seventh house, and Jupiter aligns with Mars. Then peace will guide the planets, and love will steer the stars". This alignment actually happened on valentines day February 14th 2009.

However, big problem: Jupiter aligns with Mars several times a year and the Moon is in the 7th House for about two hours every day - but some people take this alignment as gospel for a date of the AoA yet this aligmnent has occured countless times throughout history :eek::confused:

The Age of Aquarius actually starts around 2150 AD

[cornilouse]

my understanding was it was around 2150 ad also

i think it was the film Zeitgeist that claimed the age of aquarius was to come into affect around 2150 AD, though i think its already started.

lets not forget the fifth dimensions classic tune

a palmreader/astrologer said to me 1962 the start of aquairus, and i think for him it was due to the alignment as mentioned below.

isn't the AoA ushered in when the constellation aligns with the sphinx at the spring equinox ? as this is happening now.



Having searched for over a thousand years, I can find no other alignments in the past of this incredible significance. But amazingly, at one moment in time nearly fifty years ago, the collective voices of our ancient ancestors seem to have been given such a cosmic voice to energetically seed this coming Age and the birth of the Aquarian human.

In 1962 at the same time on the same day, as 2009, Jupiter and Mars were in Aquarius in the twelfth house and the Moon in the seventh house. But then the awesome concentration of planets that energize the 2009 alignment was missing.

And instead of the North Node (higher purpose) being aligned with Jupiter and Mars as it is in 2009, it was in opposition.

What this means is that back in 1962 it was the so-called south node rather than the north node that was aligned with Jupiter and Mars.

The south node represents what we bring in from the past. So in 1962 the potential for us the birth the Age of Aquarius came through from our collective race memory - but only now are we able to fully manifest its higher purpose.

In 1962 we essentially took a collective in-breath of possibility and now with the cosmic support of the Aquarian alignment of 14th February 2009 we are able to take the out-breath and make it happen.

the fifth dimension as i mentioned above

i think it was the film Zeitgeist that claimed the age of aquarius was to come into affect around 2150 AD, though i think its already started.

I feel that we are in the midst of the change right now and that over the next 3 or 4 years more clearings are going to take place. I honestly feel that the earth is going to be a more spiritual place soon.

:)


Also the 5th Dimension "Age of Aquarius" is a great song!!!!!

Possibly yes. If we follow the astrological ages then one 'Age' is around 2160 years. Some say the Age of Pisces started when Jesus shared the fish, and since we don't know the exact time when he lived, 2150AD is quite possible..(meaning the 'fish story' was around 10bc)
I'm not sure about all of it, neither about the 'ages', but the similarities between various cultures and stories are sometimes very interesting..http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astrological_Ages
