Astrological Alternatives - Age of Aquarius - When, Where, Why and How

"When the Moon is from the 7th household and Jupiter aligns with Mars..." the words within the aquarius woman scorpio man around the coming of the Age of Aquarius performed by the singing group The Fifth Dimension grabbed our attention more than 20 many years ago. Whilst I adore the song and typically sing it at the top of my lungs, astrologically it does not say much, it is just fun. There's so significantly controversy about the Age of Aquarius and once it must begin that I notion a discussion was in order. What is an age? How is it produced? How extended does it last? What's there for the changing of an age that grabs our attention so thoroughly?

We need to go back to basics and start on the truth that astrology is a find out of cycles, long term, short term, universal, multi-versal, cosmic, galactic, solar system, world orbit, satellite or moon. Then add all the debris left over in the formation of our solar procedure for instance dwarf planets, asteroids, comets and great old space dust. We definitely have a range from which to choose. A few of the cycles are so huge and involve this kind of enormous time concepts that it is beyond our comprehension. I will dispose of those people cycles very easily so we can spend our time and idea on a far more local and modern-day activations. Think circle, large circle, with a whole bunch of slightly little circles contained within it and you'll get my picture with the universe. Additionally there could possibly be several universes, only one of which is ours. Whether they're in any way inter-related or on several wavelengths or dimensions is component of an ongoing discussion. Whatever the answer is, our universe is immense and it is growing at a rapid pace.

The modern astronomical concept is that what we call the universe started using a big bang 13+ billion years ago and has been expanding ever since. What started out like a singularity exploded out into multiplicity and everything is contained within this expanding bubble of activity. The matter is distributed irregularly so some parts of our universe are denser than others. As this bubble expands, the distances in between the internal content also expands. Think large circle obtaining bigger, such as everything contained inside it on some level or in some manner. As the universe blasted out into the original void (space), pockets of workout designed and stellar nurseries spawned billions of stars ­- large ones, modest ones, long-lived, short lived - with variety and number beyond imagination. Each time our scientists believe they have a handle on it, it grows and reveals much more of itself. Think huge! These pockets of possibility more than billions of years with the universe's life formulated into stars with globe entourages, galaxies, and all the incredible cosmic bodies. There is these kinds of range that just cataloguing it is daunting to say nothing of identifying and explaining it all.

The galaxies are in constant motion and sometimes run into each other. A single may possibly cannibalize another, but constant motion and improve could be the norm, with incredible differences spawned as a result. Individuality is universal and conformity is man-made.

Locally our personal galaxy, the Milky Way, is really a hybrid of merging galaxies and will eventually be swallowed up by the significantly bigger Andromeda Galaxy (not anytime soon, don't be nervous). We are component of a local cluster of about 30 galaxies that rotate around a well-liked center and I have no notion how long a cycle that would be, I only know that it's an quite lengthy cycle. On the current political debate about immigration, I laughed as soon as I read that our Sun and its entourage of planets and space junk is an immigrant into what we call our individual galaxy absorbed from a prior galactic collision. Our galaxy spins close to a well-known center that is thought being a black hole. We exist on an outer spiral band about ¾ in the way out from the center with the galaxy. The individual galactic spin takes over 200 million many years to complete, a huge circle that exists within the bigger circle of the galactic cluster, again, circles within circles.

For our discussion our additional personal and manageable circles come from inside our solar system. Every world has an orbit (circle) at a particular distance in the Sun and people planets also have little bodies in orbit close to them. All the matter within this solar procedure is bound by the gravitational attraction on the Sun. It's all in continual motion and that motion is basically circular. Small circles inside larger circles within.... you get the picture.

The particular circle that sets the "ages" of our discussion is measured from Earth's north pole. As Earth orbits our Sun, our north/south poles are tilted compared to our orbit. We are physically irregularly shaped (the water nicely covers up the uneven contours in the Earth. We are also orbited by a satellite (our Moon) which is ¼ our size and exerts a magnetic pull of its own. As we rotate and orbit, we wobble slightly on our axis like a spinning top. That wobble is measurable and traces out a circle from the sky that takes just under 26,000 years to accomplish (different sources provide numerous figures; the source I use was the very first a single I encountered many years ago, 25,858 years). The backdrop of that circle stands out as the constellational zodiac of twelve signs. The rounded off version is 26,000 many years divided by 12 signs or approximately 2,160 years per sign and is what is typically suggested for your length of the single age. There is a trick towards ages. The polar wobble moves backwards from the zodiac signs rather than the forward order we are utilized to, so the age signs move backward as well. This astronomical measure is known as the Precession of the Equinox (the measuring principle). For ones last couple of thousand years we have been inside the Age of Pisces and we have already or are about to move to the Age of Aquarius.

There is really a particular measuring principle that means how the changing with the age will come in the 24 to 2600s AD. I have a trouble with this dating due to the fact the event markers for ones Age of Aquarius are already in evidence. My explanation is that mainly because you'll find no written instructions, the assumption that all of the ages are equal may possibly or may perhaps not be true. If each age is exactly 2160 years (or so) marker to marker then we are nevertheless inside Age of Pisces. If each age is not exactly equal as the constellations themselves aren't equal, the starting of this new age may perhaps already be upon us. I stand over a pisces and aries with the debate. Why? As I mentioned earlier, evidence...

Uranus, which has been given primary influence over Aquarius, was recognized in 1781, 5 years following the start from the USA Revolutionary War. That year also marked the beginning with the French Revolution. Uranus were sighted before discovery but had not been particularly identified. After that incredible period for individualism and independence came the USA Civil War, the industrial revolution, the era of invention with the steam engine, the automobile, the plane, the bombs and rockets, space flight and more. All of they are based in revolution, independence and invention and flirted from the new era cleaving the way to the future.

It is mentioned how the "2nd coming from the Avatar" (spiritual leader) will arrive once the "sign of man is from the heavens." Well we now have definitely done that. We have left space debris scattered from right here to out past the edges of our solar system. The space station recently had to decide whether or not to duck a piece of space junk.

The most amazing picture to me is that in the black sky of space in the white-suited astronaut hanging more than the semi-arc on the earth below. An additional profound image may be the familiar picture of Astronaut Ed White tethered to a Gemini spacecraft in 1965. The "tether" he was screening is anchored like an umbilical chord as the first American man floated and turned in the vast expanse of space like an infant within the womb from the universe. The sign of man is already during the heavens and it is inventive, innovative, revolutionary, independent and futuristic... all Uranus/Aquarius keywords. Maintain in mind that Aquarius itself is called "the sign of man" and that is the symbolism that accompanies it astrologically.

Also, the changing of an age isn't a single thing in time. You can find no fences between the signs in outer space. There is a falling off of a single sign energy and the initiation of one more - a blending or merging that takes about 144 many years to complete. Why? Because it takes 72 many years for our north pole pointer to complete 1 degree. Mainly because the transform happens between the last degree of an existing age and the very first degree from the new age, that equals two degrees by my math, or 144 years of time, to end one age and begin the next.

Death of an age would not be any simpler than ordinary death. Birth has in no way been regarded as effortless and that would include the birth of an age. Birth and death are occurring simultaneously which happens at the end of 1 age and also the commencing of its successor. This can be traumatic. Glimpse around you at our current experience. And you volunteered being the following at this time...brave you.

To my mind we now have already left the Age of Pisces and have already entered the Age of Aquarius. We have moved inside the age of believing (emotion not necessarily based in fact) towards the age of knowing (intellectual, knowledge as our friend). To me Pisces is our immediate history, our heritage that we had 2000 or so many years to learn, It includes our habits, our knowledge, our beliefs, our existing environmental patterning - all that we now have been during the age. To me Aquarius is our now and our future. We must learn, know, explore, invent and move toward the future. The remnants of Pisces will kick and scream and try to retain us locked in the past because-the dying age will try to cling to life. The coming age is obtaining stronger and will retain dominance more than human development for ones next 2000+ years.

Perhaps you happen to be a single who believes that we are still inside the Age of Pisces with its history steeped during the Age of Aries (always backwards from your zodiac). What would that be like? We would be driven by emotion, mystery, tremendous involvement in art forms and religious beliefs, the savior/victim mentality with domination or war as our heritage. Possibly we might be on that pivotal moment of 144 years exactly where we transform from 1 age to one more with all of the mixed messages that occur from change. What are the possibilities a time of simultaneous death/birth may possibly offer? Where do you stand in this? Regardless of whether you "believe" (Pisces) or would prefer to "know" (Aquarius) it'll happen with or with no our conscious participation. The ages unfold in a pattern, a predictable cycle of energy additional strong than our understanding and it is not dependent on our individual beliefs. The development and the unfolding from the universe is proper on schedule - the birth happens with or without having our participation or belief. In which is your place in this unfolding cycle? The alternative is yours.
