Age of Aquarius Pisces what awaits man. What is the Age of Aquarius and when will it begin? Astrology - the science of the future

The Age of Aquarius is a phrase that has gained particular popularity over the past decade. It is pronounced in different contexts, but almost always with the brightest aspirations and hopes. There is a well-known theory that peace and prosperity will reign in Russia during this period. So what is the Age of Aquarius and when will it begin? You can read about this in this article.

Sun movement

To answer this question, we need to step back a little. It has long seemed to people on Earth that it is not our planet that moves around the Sun, but vice versa. At the same time, the luminary moves along a narrow strip, which scientists call the ecliptic, while passing through the twelve signs of the zodiacal circle.

The vernal equinox

The beginning of the astrological year is considered to be the moment, which is called the spring equinox. At this time, the Sun passes through the celestial equator (that is, an imaginary line dividing the sky into southern and northern halves). At the same time, on Earth, the duration of the night is equal to the duration of the day. This phenomenon corresponds to the term equinox, which is translated from Latin as "equal night". There are two equinoxes during the year: autumn and spring. The first marks the arrival of autumn, the second - the beginning of spring. The period of the spring equinox coincides with the beginning of the action of the first sign of the zodiac (Aries). entails a period of influence of the seventh astrological sign (Libra).

Zodiac signs and real constellations

In early astrology, the spring equinox was considered the time of the entry of the Sun not only into the sign of Aries, but also into the constellation Aries. Then these concepts did not differ. However, over time, astronomy and astrology separated from each other. Signs of the Zodiac circle no longer correspond to specific constellations. This means that when an astronomer talks about Taurus, he talks about a certain group of stars that form a constellation. If an astrologer speaks of Taurus, then he means only an astrological sign, that is, a thirty-degree section of the Zodiac with a specific set of characteristics, associations and symbols.

Precession

A Greek astronomer named Hipparchus in the second century discovered a phenomenon called the displacement of the equinoxes, or precession. The scientist noticed that the earth's axis is slowly changing its position in relation to the stars. This process resembles the trembling of a spinning disc. The poles of the Earth do not remain stationary all the time, they are subject to slight fluctuations from side to side. For many centuries, this tilt of the planet changes the position of the celestial equator, which is supposed to be in the same plane with the earth. All of the above explains the fact that over time, the spring equinox found itself in another constellation. The slow change in the tilt of our planet was called precession, because over many years the equinoxes very slowly cross all the signs of the zodiacal circle in reverse order.

So, when the ancient Babylonians calculated the Zodiac, the beginning of the astrological year (the vernal equinox) was located in the constellation Aries. At the beginning of our era, at the time of the birth of Christ, it moved into Pisces. In ours, it should move to the constellation of Aquarius.

Beginning of a new era

Many are interested in when the Age of Aquarius began. It's a difficult question. Some astrologers insist that this happened around the year 2000, others say that this event should be expected in the near future. The point is that the equinoxes move slowly along the Zodiac. The rate of this phenomenon is 1 degree for 71.5 years. One astrological sign of the equinox points pass in 2150 years. And all twelve of them will intersect in 25,820 years. This period of time is called the great year. The length of time during which the equinoxes pass one sign of the Zodiac is called a great month, era or era.

For the last twenty centuries, mankind has existed in the Age of Pisces. Now comes the Age of Aquarius. The beginning of a new era is difficult to determine with an accuracy of up to a year, since we are talking about huge time intervals. Some astrologers believe that the dawn of a new era was the end of World War II. And a very authoritative astrological association called the "Church of Light" insists that the Age of Aquarius began in 1881. Caple McCutcheon (famous astrologer) claims that we entered a new era in the 1970s. And Carl Jung (psychologist) along with Charles Jane predicted that this period would begin in the 1990s. Other experts, such as Cyril Fagan, have a different opinion on the question of when the Age of Aquarius will come. So, they believe that this fateful event will not happen before the year 2300. However, most astrologers unanimously admit that already in 2000 a new era has begun - the era of Aquarius.

Peace and Justice

What will be this period in the life of mankind? Many have high hopes for him. The hint must be sought in the characterization of the sign. As a rule, he personifies humanity and brotherhood. Some astrologers expect that in the coming era separate states will disappear, and people will unite into one people that does not recognize the division into nationalities. The myth of the Age of Aquarius says that at this time we will reach the privileges of the nobility and the rich will be in the past. A simple person will become a full-fledged master of life, and the most enlightened and prosperous people will be considered aristocrats.

Flying to the stars

Aquarius governs radio waves. This is a sign of inventions and scientific discoveries. It is not yet possible to imagine what discoveries await us in the next two thousand years. But astrologers predict that space travel will definitely be among the scientific achievements. People will be able to penetrate far beyond the solar system and even their own galaxy. They will create settlements on habitable planets and large-scale space ferries. The world of the Age of Aquarius will become an era of cosmic achievements for man. It will fly to the stars, the closest of which is located 4.3 light years from planet Earth. For comparison, Pluto is only five light-minutes away from us.

Technical progress

The Aquarian man is a thinking and very practical person who is able to intelligently manage the natural resources of his planet. An incredible intellectual breakthrough will be made in the future. New technologies will solve the problem of depletion of minerals and the Earth. Electronics, atomic energy, aviation will bring great benefits to mankind. Aquarius is a practical sign, so gaining knowledge in this era will not be an end in itself, but a way to get real results.

Astrology - the science of the future

Many modern astrologers treat the sign of Aquarius with special warmth, because it is directly related to this ancient science. The surge of interest in it in recent years is obvious. Someone even called astrology the religion of the new generation. It is assumed that the Age of Aquarius will make it not a secret of the initiates or a ridiculous prejudice, but a full-fledged and respected science, accessible to everyone. Such hopes may seem unrealistic to many. However, Aquarius is a sign of desires and hopes. Therefore, astrologers expect that the acquired knowledge will help people discover new truths.

Negative changes

The above predictions come from the positive qualities of Aquarius. However, signs of a new era can be selfishness, inflexibility and indecision, characteristic of this sign of the zodiac. Humanity in its development has not yet overcome the negative qualities and before the emergence of a new race, free from hesitation and prejudice, is still very far away. People have serious problems to solve. We are threatened by famine and epidemics, global wars, overpopulation. We draw on natural resources without limits, depriving the Earth of its ability to sustain life. The greatest danger is atomic energy. It can destroy the entire planet and the people themselves. Learning how to use this natural resource competently and wisely is another task that must be solved in the progressive era of Aquarius.

Russia is a symbol of rebirth

Today much is said about the spiritual renewal of mankind. Some experts believe that it will come due to the influence of the Russian ethnic group, which maximally coincides with the symbolism of Aquarius. What arguments are not given in favor of this version. Here are some of them:

  • The mysterious and freedom-loving Russian soul, sung by poets and prose writers, will be able to stir up all the best in humanity.
  • Brilliant scientists were born in Russia (Kurchatov, Mendeleev, Lomonosov, Popov), who made a worthy contribution to the development of world civilization. And this is fully consistent with the spirit of the coming era. This means that the Age of Aquarius for Russia is the most beneficial time.
  • Our country is constantly under a glass slide in the laboratory of the universe. All experiments (public, economic, social) were carried out in Russia.

Mission of Russia

The main task of our country in the new era, astrologers call the unification of all people into a single state, the abolition of all borders and national differences. Material values ​​will lose priority and be replaced by spiritual ones. As a result, humanity must achieve maximum mutual understanding and harmony. The Age of Aquarius for Russia is an opportunity to adequately prove itself on the world stage. Like it or not, time will tell. In any case, the forecast for the development of our country in the new era is very favorable. "The Russians harness slowly, but they drive fast," Bismarck said. I want these words to become prophetic.

Sadhana of the Age of Aquarius

This spiritual practice was introduced by Yogi Bhajan on June 21, 1992. It must be done daily for twenty-one years. During this time period, the transition of the Earth into a new era occurs. Morning sadhana traditionally begins with silence. The first words that are spoken during the ceremony are lines from a sacred text written by Jab Ji Sahib. Participants in the process can simply listen or read the text along with the guru. This is followed by a kundalini yoga class to prepare the mind and body for the next stage of sadhana - meditation. It lasts sixty-two minutes and is done without stopping between mantras. The back while singing should be kept straight and the neck lock should be made. This is necessary in order for the energy to freely penetrate the head. This spiritual practice is carried out under the guidance of a Guru. It promotes maximum physical and spiritual cleansing.

Transition Difficulties

There are no clear boundaries in the zodiac constellations, they have different lengths. That is why astrological epochs are not replaced immediately, but gradually. The change of seasons is about the same: spring conquers winter, and autumn wins its rights from summer. The entire twentieth century was the harbinger of the Age of Aquarius. For the next century, the era of Pisces will remind of itself before going down in history. The same long transitional period awaits the end of the Age of Aquarius, when, after 2000 years, it will also sink into oblivion.

Each astrological epoch carries various individual features. Over time, they become the predominant, the main background for the development of mankind. The symbolism inherent in the dominant sign reigns supreme in morality, the system of values, the way of thinking, the structure of societies, worldview, science, mythology, culture and religion. Therefore, a new era will come into its own after it overcomes the remnants of the Piscean era. It is when most of the social structures and humanity as a whole will be reorganized to other value orientations that the Age of Aquarius will come.

The advent of a new era gives people hope. The patron of this sign is Uranus. It promotes scientific inventions, stimulates technological progress, favors humanitarian achievements. Uranus is also the planet of unconscious goals and will. Humanity has a chance to build a new, more perfect and comfortable world. Or, conversely, lose everything that it has. Time will tell how we will be able to use this opportunity.

Everyone knows that the Age of Pisces is over, and now we live at the very beginning of the Age of Aquarius. What awaits us in the next 2000 years? Let's figure it out.

To understand why one era succeeds another, let's delve a little into astronomy. There is such a thing as precession. This is a periodic change in the direction of the earth's axis. The full cycle of the earth's precession is about 25,920 years. Because of this, the so-called cross of the equinoxes and solstices is gradually shifting - approximately by 1 degree in 72 years. If you divide the Zodiac circle into 12 parts, it turns out that each constellation occupies approximately 30 degrees. Now we multiply 72 by 30 and we get 2160 years: about how long the astrological epoch lasts.

For a long time at the time of the vernal equinox, when day equals night, the Sun was in Pisces, and now it has moved to the constellation Aquarius: due to the precessional cycle, the change of epochs occurs in the opposite direction - from Aries to Pisces, from Pisces to Aquarius, and so on . Why is this moment taken as a starting point? The spring equinox in all ancient cultures, as well as in astrology, is the main day of the year, the beginning of the beginnings. This is the top of the precessional cross.

From 1997 to 2012, we have witnessed a change of eras. Now the era of Pisces has finally ended, and Aquarius has fully come into its own.

What does this bring us? Global changes at all levels, a change in worldview, a synthesis of sciences, art, religious and mystical teachings, as well as freedom of expression, thought and action. These typical qualities of Aquarius will certainly manifest themselves in the very near future - and even now the wind of change is already clearly felt.

However, the change of epochs is not limited to the "castling" of Pisces and Aquarius. At the same time there was a transition from Virgo to Leo (autumn equinox), from Gemini to Taurus (summer solstice) and from Sagittarius to Scorpio (winter solstice). To fully understand what the new era will be, it is necessary to analyze all four signs: they make up the very cross of the equinoxes and solstices, and with the advent of the new era, new “rulers” of this cross appeared.

A bit of history

Of course, you have already felt that since the end of the 90s the world has changed totally. In the age of Pisces, the consciousness of people was thoroughly religious. In general, this sign carries the idea of ​​duality, opposition. Hence the opposition of spirituality and sin, sublime feelings and ordinary desires, the struggle with internal weaknesses and vices. The salvation of the soul, the renunciation of everything vicious, in other words, earthly, human - this was the basis of the ideology of the previous era.

In the era of Pisces, the influence of Virgo was also clearly felt. Hence - the cult of the Virgin, a respectful attitude towards the mother. On the other hand, the Virgin is an earthly sign, which was reflected both in the materialization of the cult (a huge number of temples, icons, sacred objects), and in the pursuit of purely earthly pleasures (which, to put it mildly, were not encouraged).

The twins, symbolizing opposition and deceit, also left their mark on the era of Pisces. The era of spirituality and veneration of shrines was at the same time a time of ideological struggle (remember, for example, the endless confrontation between Catholics, Protestants, Orthodox). But Gemini, among other things, is an intellectual sign - which gave rise to the development of science, which ... almost destroyed the world, moreover, such a danger arose more than once - starting from the Middle Ages and ending with the Second World War.

Sagittarius also contributed: crusades, expansion, colonization, the imposition of ideology - all these are negative manifestations of the sign of Sagittarius, which manifested themselves in full in the era of Pisces.

royal servant

Fortunately, this difficult era is over. Many people, by virtue of inertia, continue to live according to its laws - and make a mistake. They get stuck in the past, hinder their own development, block their own path to happiness, success and well-being. And now you need to think and act differently.

The Age of Aquarius is symbolically associated with Ganymede. In astronomy, this is the satellite of Jupiter, and in mythology, the servant of Zeus, his butler. Ganymede served perfectly - with full dedication, but at the same time with dignity, without a shadow of humiliation, for which Zeus took him to Olympus, in other words, deified him. So the era of Aquarius is, first of all, the era of service. Look at how rapidly this area is developing, how much it is in demand, how the level of all kinds of services has grown in recent years. Moreover, the service should be understood in the broadest sense of the word - from the traditional restaurant business to the maintenance of machines and computers, teaching at a university, and so on.

The service of man to man is the leitmotif of the new era. At the same time, one should not forget the catchphrase: "I would be glad to serve - it's sickening to serve." If you catch the difference, then you understand the main idea.

Respect for each other, respect for other people's opinions, principles, actions, the ability to help, provide services without groveling at the same time - this is the formula for the success of the Age of Aquarius. In other words, treat people as you treat yourself, do for others as for yourself, do not try to rise, but do not humiliate yourself - and you will be happy.

Let's not forget that Aquarius blurs the boundaries - between cultures, religions, social strata - between people in general. If we come to an understanding of humanity as a whole, we will comprehend the mystical essence of the Age of Aquarius.

The rebirth of a woman

Leo became the "ruler" of the autumn equinox. In the era of Pisces, when Virgo was in his place, a woman was limited in her rights. Yes, there was a cult of the Mother of God, sons were obliged to honor their mothers. But in general, the female share was unenviable. Leo makes a big difference. Strength, freedom, fearlessness - these qualities are no longer considered purely masculine. Women gain independence, reveal their capabilities, begin to realize their own strength - that is, they become real lionesses. In addition, in the new era, women will be able to regain the magical power that they once possessed.

Peace is peace

By the way, the notorious opposition of the sexes in the past era was caused by the influence of Gemini. Now Taurus has taken their place - and everything is changing radically. If Gemini is a struggle of antagonists, a war of ideologies, then Taurus, on the contrary, carries the idea of ​​the unity of opposites. This is a sign of integration, integrity, peaceful coexistence. In addition, the element of Taurus is earth, so now people will not fight in the name of an idea, plant their worldview with a cross and a sword. Under the influence of Taurus, a person is much more interested in material well-being, making money. But at the same time, no one will die for the metal: those days have passed. And the work itself, and its result, and money, and the benefits that can be acquired with them, will bring positive emotions, a sense of pleasure and harmony. While we are only at the beginning of the journey, but very soon it will become the norm.

From fearlessness to power

And finally, let's talk about the change of the "ruler" of the winter solstice point - the transition from Sagittarius to Scorpio. Scorpio is associated with the idea of ​​death. But do not be afraid: firstly, death is always a rebirth, a kind of metamorphosis. And secondly, the main thing here is the right attitude towards death. Ancient sacred practices associated with death, thanks to Scorpio, are once again becoming available to everyone. Their meaning is to overcome the fear of death, and when a person ceases to be afraid to die, he is completely freed, begins to live a full life.

In addition, Scorpio is a sign of power. And power is, first of all, fearlessness. A person who is not afraid of anything controls everyone else - this is the essence of understanding power (both worldly and spiritual) according to Scorpio. Therefore, the less we are afraid, the more chances we have to gain power, success, recognition.

Here, perhaps, are all the main trends of the new era. It is clear that not everyone is able to immediately change their perception of the world, to accept new principles, but gradually we will all come to understand the essence of the Age of Aquarius. And the sooner this happens to you, the sooner you will find harmony, prosperity, happiness and success.

The Leaving Age of Pisces

People are interested in when the Age of Aquarius will come and what changes it can bring with it.

The change of epochs is associated with the shift of the vernal equinox, which goes a full circle in 25,786 years. For the vernal equinox of the Earth to pass one sign of the Zodiac, it needs 2148 years (25,786:12 signs). This means that each epoch lasts 2148 years.

The change of eras affects the development of the psyche of each person, as well as the collective psyche.

Astrological epochs are important as psychotherapy for the consciousness of man and his soul. Therefore, each zodiac epoch must teach the soul something. Moreover, the program becomes more complicated with each new era.

In the era of Pisces, the sign of Aries and the element of Fire were influenced by the element of Water. The ruler of Aries - Mars was influenced by the rulers of Pisces - Jupiter and Neptune.

This influence brought its difficulties, problems and graces. At the same time, each sign experienced the pressure of a neighboring sign: Aries - Pisces, Taurus - Aries, Gemini - Taurus, Cancer - Gemini, Leo - Cancer, Virgo - Leo, Libra - Virgo, Scorpio - Libra, Sagittarius - Scorpio, Capricorn - Sagittarius, Aquarius - Capricorn, Pisces - Aquarius.

All signs of the Zodiac had to learn to accept the psychological burden of the neighboring sign and take from it what each of them lacked.

This positive process was supposed to teach a person new qualities, to adapt to the peculiarities of the era. And, thus, each person to bring to harmony with the world.

But, when a neighboring sign had the wrong influence, it suppressed the features of the sign in front. And this was no longer progress, but regression.

In order to cope with this process, humanity had to learn to love. After all, only love can reconcile opposites.

Therefore, with the advent of the age of Pisces, the Son of God, Jesus Christ, came into the world and began to teach people to love each other, and even their enemies.

If this teaching is considered from the point of view of the imposition of constellations with opposite properties, then the genius and timeliness of this teaching becomes obvious.

Consider the alignment of the constellations in the Age of Pisces.

ARIES
If Pisces strongly influenced Aries, then Aries became less proactive, more dependent on feelings. Therefore, in order not to depend on feelings, Aries learned to hide their feelings and thoughts deep in their hearts, which made them withdrawn, not sociable, lonely. It was hard for them to realize themselves, which made them unhappy, caused a mental disorder.
If Pisces influence Aries in moderation, then Aries perceive the environment well, feel other people, notice their problems and joys. This helps to get rid of selfishness in a timely manner, fit into any team, set realistic goals, and be practical. They know how to bring the work they have started to the end, without prejudice to the interests of others. They are less categorical and more merciful.

TAURUS
If Aries has a strong influence on Taurus, then they become aggressive, despotic. Often their actions are controlled by instincts. Under the influence of Mars, the physiological nature of man takes precedence over his soul.
If the influence of Aries is exerted on Taurus in moderation, then it brings harmony. Taurus from a tireless, silent hard worker turn into active, advanced people, engines of progress. Fire ignites a creative spirit in them, endows them with talents and a flight of thought.

TWINS
If Taurus strongly influences Gemini, then they experience many hardships and difficulties. They have to work hard, fight and defend justice. They are often visited by despair, they lose their judgment and faith in God. Because of what they can turn into prudent and selfish people.

CRAYFISH
If Gemini has a strong influence on Cancers, then they lose the ability to endure and wait for their finest hour. This makes them upstarts who do everything at random. The behavior of some is inadequate, difficult to explain. Selfishness, prudence and surface in judgments appear in the character. Lack of spirituality pushes to renunciation of parents and children.
If Gemini influence in moderation, harmoniously, then Cancers are engaged in social activities, politics, actively manifest themselves in society. It is easy for them to communicate, change their views, habits. The spirit of materialism does not have much influence on their soul. They have faith in God. They can create ingenious works of art.

A LION
If Cancer has a strong influence on Leo, then this disrupts their psyche, makes them prone to tantrums, spiritual vices. Passions drive them to extremes. Therefore, they are capable of unpredictable actions. They may feel hatred and indifference towards their children.
If Cancer affects Leo in moderation, harmoniously, then the Lions perfectly show their parental feelings. These people are characterized by a sense of duty, mercy, compassion, tact, gentleness, as well as love for the Motherland.

VIRGO
If Leo strongly influences Virgos, then they become overly demanding, picky. They tend to be despotistic, flattering, deceitful. For the sake of the goal, they can exploit parents, relatives, children, not notice the problems of other people.
If Leo influences Virgos in moderation, harmoniously, then Virgos study and improve their intellect and spiritual qualities all their lives. By the end of life, they acquire a deep faith in God and love for people. They become fighters for justice, propagandists of high human qualities. SCALES
If Virgo has a strong influence on Libra, then they become self-confident, quickly make decisions and often make mistakes. In order not to be mistaken, they use cunning, deceit, the ability to seduce. They develop the ability to subtly understand the situation and other people, and use it for their own purposes. They become skilled blackmailers, which are difficult to get rid of. At the same time, they lose their unique delicate charm and taste.
If Virgo influences in moderation, harmoniously, then Libra feels the need for spiritual growth. The injustice in the world causes them anxiety and creates a desire to bring the world to perfection. They become connoisseurs of beauty, who perfectly feel color, sound and harmony in relationships and forms. They can also become fighters for justice, judges, defenders of law and order.

SCORPION
If Libra strongly influences Scorpions, then they turn into self-confident materialists. Their deceit and cunning are doubled, and far-sightedness runs so far that their plans are difficult to predict. Thanks to such abilities, these people easily manage both the team and events. They can lead criminal clans, manipulate other people.
If Libra influences in moderation, harmoniously, then Scorpios take care of their soul. They are drawn to the mystical, secret. Therefore, their faith in God becomes so deep that they become the true spiritual shepherds of mankind. Some become excellent doctors, healers, with a developed sense of duty.

SAGITTARIUS
If Scorpio has a strong influence on Sagittarius, then they are prone to vices, subject to passions and the accumulation of material values. Money and sex are in the forefront. Their souls are deteriorating. They can get hurt in a fight, become a bully. They often lack a sense of proportion, which makes them lose their minds.
If Scorpio influences in moderation, harmoniously, then Sagittarius become far-sighted. They know how to work well with information, set tasks and goals correctly. Their actions are guided by a sense of duty. They are characterized by patriotism and nationalism. They accept faith in God and often become preachers of their chosen religion.

CAPRICORN
If Sagittarius strongly influences Capricorns, then they become self-confident, despotic and demanding of others. Their behavior can not be properly assessed. They do not notice what is happening next to them, in society, in the state. Sometimes they can act under the influence of emotions and cause a storm of indignation. Criticism of them can turn into caustic sarcasm. Although they themselves can not tolerate criticism in their direction.
If Sagittarius influences in moderation, harmoniously, then Capricorns acquire the ability to feel the passage of time, the needs of society and society. Therefore, they are able to lead a team. These are well-known politicians, scientists and figures in other fields.

AQUARIUS
If Capricorn has a strong influence on Aquarius, then they become dry, callous. They carry their experiences in themselves and do not allow them to come out. Their statements and words become tough, killing on the spot. They become fans of their work, who, in order to achieve the goal, do not notice a single person.
If Capricorn influences in moderation, harmoniously, then Aquarius acquire wisdom. They are characterized by both leadership qualities and maternal care. You can rely on them in difficult moments of life. These are true friends, allies, partners.

FISHES
If Aquarius has a strong influence on Pisces, then they become aggressive, intolerant of objections and barriers. These are "predatory fish", loners. In difficult situations, when patience is needed, they lose their sense of proportion, try to “cut” everything with one “hit” and take risks. They are attracted by freedom, uncertainty and mystery. They are not cautious and careless. Therefore, they can get into a dangerous environment.
If Aquarius influences in moderation, harmoniously, then Pisces become active in a team, environment, family. A sense of duty guides their actions. They are faithful to friends and ideals, strive for spiritual wealth, improve themselves. Without fanaticism they believe in God. Therefore, they are tolerant of other religions.

THE AGE OF FISH

At the beginning of the era of Pisces, the sign of Aries did not give up its positions. Therefore, the planet Mars, as the ruler of Aries, had a greater influence on the world. International territorial wars were fought very often. Mars even influenced religion, which was introduced by force.

States were formed and built on the basis of faith in God. Strong talented personalities became the rulers of countries. The whole life of mankind was guided by the properties of Aries. Therefore, the talent of a person, willpower and courage were valued. Owning weapons was a paramount necessity and duty.

Over time, Jupiter (the ruler of Pisces) began to limit the influence of Mars, bring all processes into a system, order. States began to build on the basis of rules, laws. Politicians learned diplomacy and negotiation skills.

Neptune (the second ruler of Pisces) made this process fickle. Therefore, peace between states was replaced by periods of war.

Mars still does not give up its positions. In the Age of Pisces, he sought to influence society, associations, states, parties, families. Mars tried to defeat them, conquer them, conquer them with the help of wars, intrigues, conspiracies, money, and at the same time destroy morality and faith in God in society. It can be resisted only by that association, which is based on a system of universal values.

Thus, Mars in the Age of Pisces stimulated mankind to search for such value systems that could unite and keep people in a certain society.

The task of Jupiter in the age of Pisces is to tame the militancy of Mars, to streamline its influence on humanity. This, in turn, will teach humanity to come to world agreements, to take obligations and fulfill them.

The task of Neptune is to awaken in a person an interest in knowing the truth, to awaken human souls so that the darkness of unbelief does not cover them in an unconscious state. It stimulates mankind to develop the system of education, healthcare, social protection, art, creativity, depth of thinking and perception.

Compatibility horoscope: the Age of Aquarius for the signs of the zodiac is the most complete description, only proven theories based on astrological observations of several millennia.

Researchers call the new period a sign of brotherhood and mercy. Astrologers' forecasts promise that the Age of Aquarius will unite humanity into a single people, where nationality will not play a role. The main value will be the person himself. A new type of aristocracy will appear - an erudite personality, and all people on Earth will strive for this ideal.

Age of Aquarius - what does it mean?

Many ordinary people often ask the question: the Age of Aquarius - what is it? Scientists have deduced a simple formula: The Age of Aquarius is a horoscopic theory that lies at the basis of the views of the New Age culture, the essence of which is that the astrological period is replaced. This happens once every 2 thousand years, and in the new era science will take a big step forward, many different teachings will appear. This period is also called the Golden Age, as it will give a new society to the Earth.

Characteristic features of the new era:

  • combination of all beliefs;
  • liberation from illusions;
  • any person will become part of the renewed race;
  • there will be many personalities with supernatural abilities;
  • universal equality and brotherhood.

Symbol of the Age of Aquarius

Each era has its own characteristic symbols. The sign of the Age of Aquarius is a person who pours water from two vessels at once into the river, researchers call them symbols of the currents of Good and Evil. These are the energies of the Age of Aquarius, one vessel symbolizes "dead" water, the second - "living". Wherein:

  1. The stream of Evil brings suffering and purifies the soul through pain.
  2. The flow of Good fills with a feeling of new happiness and harmony, freedom and love.

Age of Aquarius - when does it begin and end?

About how long the Age of Aquarius lasts, there are active discussions between scientists from different countries. Some claim that the new era allegedly began in 1962, when Aquarius gathered a lot of planets, others insist on 1997, since Uranus entered the field of Aquarius. Astrologers, for their part, insist on three versions that explain the beginning of the Age of Aquarius:

  1. The New Era has already begun in the year 2000 and will last for about 2000 years.
  2. At the moment, there is a transitional period, which has about 160 years.
  3. The Age of Aquarius began in 2012, when the vernal equinox entered this constellation.

Age of Aquarius - predictions

Given the extremely optimistic forecasts, the new era promises to be the best period for humanity. The researchers have constructed the main principles that decipher the meaning of what the Age of Aquarius is, what awaits us and what to fear:

  1. Judgment will not be acceptable.
  2. Logical thinking will be completely replaced by intuitive.
  3. The line between the sciences of different profiles will disappear, scientists will begin to work with the fundamental base.
  4. The main principle of life will be universal prosperity, without hierarchies.
  5. Everyone will live for the common good.
  6. Spiritual goods will completely replace material ones.
  7. Artificial intelligence will be invented.
  8. The main goal of a person will be inner, spiritual growth, and not wealth.
  9. Intrigues, meanness, corruption, abuse of power will disappear.
  10. Everyone will work for a common excellent result.

Age of Aquarius - esotericism

Esotericism has its own interpretations of the new era and the changes that await humanity. The very first knowledge: there is no death, there is only a transformation of the body, in which the Higher Spirit is preserved and only changes the body. The new Age of Aquarius will teach a different system of values:

  • understand and love others, develop the Supreme Spirit;
  • accept the burden of responsibility to the universe;
  • appreciate people for their qualities;
  • respect the freedom of choice of one's own and others;
  • to be friends, to show mercy and disinterestedness;
  • accept other people's troubles as their own, strive to improve the world;
  • eradicate disease and suffering.

Age of Aquarius for zodiac signs

In the Age of Aquarius, all the signs of the zodiac will receive their task, but the main responsibility will lie with those born under this sign and chosen as guides for others. The Age of Aquarius for Aquarius is a period of difficult trials and, at the same time, great help from the Higher Forces, who recognized Aquarius as predictors of the concepts of the future. They will be the first to introduce the latest technologies that are developing at a gigantic pace. The Age of Aquarius is a new world in which everyone will have to learn to live, without exception.

And those born under this sign also need to learn and be leaders, their main tasks are:

  • pay attention to spiritual growth;
  • to teach others tolerance, the ability to disinterestedly love and be friends;
  • master the latest technologies;
  • be among the leaders of the information revolution.

When will the Age of Aquarius come and what does it promise us?

The Age of Aquarius is a phrase that has gained particular popularity over the past decade. It is pronounced in different contexts, but almost always with the brightest aspirations and hopes. There is a well-known theory that peace and prosperity will reign in Russia during this period. So what is the Age of Aquarius and when will it begin? You can read about this in this article.

Sun movement

To answer this question, we need to step back a little. It has long seemed to people on Earth that it is not our planet that moves around the Sun, but vice versa. At the same time, the luminary moves along a narrow strip, which scientists call the ecliptic, while passing through the twelve signs of the zodiacal circle.

The foundations of astrology were laid in ancient Babylon. The inhabitants of this country gave the names of the signs of the Zodiac in honor of real constellations. By observing the Sun, astronomers have found that it moves through certain groups of stars every year. For example, in the spring it crosses the constellation Aries, and in the fall it ends up in the constellation Libra.

The vernal equinox

The beginning of the astrological year is considered to be the moment, which is called the spring equinox. At this time, the Sun passes through the celestial equator (that is, an imaginary line dividing the sky into southern and northern halves). At the same time, on Earth, the duration of the night is equal to the duration of the day. This phenomenon corresponds to the term equinox, which is translated from Latin as “equal night”. There are two equinoxes during the year: autumn and spring. The first marks the arrival of autumn, the second - the beginning of spring. The period of the spring equinox coincides with the beginning of the action of the first sign of the zodiac (Aries). The autumn equinox entails a period of influence of the seventh astrological sign (Libra).

Zodiac signs and real constellations

In early astrology, the spring equinox was considered the time of the entry of the Sun not only into the sign of Aries, but also into the constellation Aries. Then these concepts did not differ. However, over time, astronomy and astrology separated from each other. Signs of the Zodiac circle no longer correspond to specific constellations. This means that when an astronomer talks about Taurus, he talks about a certain group of stars that form a constellation. If an astrologer speaks of Taurus, then he means only an astrological sign, that is, a thirty-degree section of the Zodiac with a specific set of characteristics, associations and symbols.

A Greek astronomer named Hipparchus in the second century BC discovered a phenomenon called the displacement of the equinoxes, or precession. The scientist noticed that the earth's axis is slowly changing its position in relation to the stars. This process resembles the trembling of a spinning disc. The poles of the Earth do not remain stationary all the time, they are subject to slight fluctuations from side to side. For many centuries, this tilt of the planet changes the position of the celestial equator, which is supposed to be in the same plane with the earth. All of the above explains the fact that over time, the spring equinox found itself in another constellation. The slow change in the tilt of our planet was called precession, because over many years the equinoxes very slowly cross all the signs of the zodiacal circle in reverse order.

So, when the ancient Babylonians calculated the Zodiac, the beginning of the astrological year (the vernal equinox) was located in the constellation Aries. At the beginning of our era, at the time of the birth of Christ, it moved into Pisces. Today, the spring equinox should move into the constellation of Aquarius.

Beginning of a new era

Many are interested in when the Age of Aquarius began. It's a difficult question. Some astrologers insist that this happened around the year 2000, others say that this event should be expected in the near future. The point is that the equinoxes move slowly along the Zodiac. The rate of this phenomenon is 1 degree for 71.5 years. One astrological sign of the equinox points pass in 2150 years. And all twelve of them will intersect in 25,820 years. This period of time is called the great year. The length of time during which the equinoxes pass one sign of the Zodiac is called a great month, era or era.

For the last twenty centuries, mankind has existed in the Age of Pisces. Now comes the Age of Aquarius. The beginning of a new era is difficult to determine with an accuracy of up to a year, since we are talking about huge time intervals. Some astrologers believe that the dawn of a new era was the end of World War II. And a very authoritative astrological association called the "Church of Light" insists that the Age of Aquarius began in 1881. Caple McCutcheon (famous astrologer) claims that we entered a new era in the 1970s. And Carl Jung (psychologist) along with Charles Jane predicted that this period would begin in the 1990s. Other experts, such as Cyril Fagan, have a different opinion on the question of when the Age of Aquarius will come. So, they believe that this fateful event will not happen before the year 2300. However, most astrologers unanimously admit that already in 2000 a new era has begun - the era of Aquarius.

Peace and Justice

What will be this period in the life of mankind? Many have high hopes for him. The hint must be sought in the characterization of the sign. As a rule, he personifies humanity and brotherhood. Some astrologers expect that in the coming era separate states will disappear, and people will unite into one people that does not recognize the division into nationalities. The myth of the Age of Aquarius says that at this time we will achieve world peace. The privileges of the nobility and the rich will be in the past. A simple person will become a full-fledged master of life, and the most enlightened and prosperous people will be considered aristocrats.

Flying to the stars

Aquarius governs radio waves. This is a sign of inventions and scientific discoveries. It is not yet possible to imagine what discoveries await us in the next two thousand years. But astrologers predict that space travel will definitely be among the scientific achievements. People will be able to penetrate far beyond the solar system and even their own galaxy. They will create settlements on habitable planets and large-scale space ferries. The world of the Age of Aquarius will become an era of cosmic achievements for man. It will fly to the stars, the closest of which is located 4.3 light years from planet Earth. For comparison, Pluto is only five light-minutes away from us.

Technical progress

The Aquarian man is a thinking and very practical person who is able to intelligently manage the natural resources of his planet. An incredible intellectual breakthrough will be made in the future. New technologies will solve the problem of depletion of minerals and energy resources of the Earth. Electronics, atomic energy, aviation will bring great benefits to mankind. Aquarius is a practical sign, so gaining knowledge in this era will not be an end in itself, but a way to get real results.

Astrology is the science of the future

Many modern astrologers treat the sign of Aquarius with special warmth, because it is directly related to this ancient science. The surge of interest in it in recent years is obvious. Someone even called astrology the religion of the new generation. It is assumed that the Age of Aquarius will make it not a secret of the initiates or a ridiculous prejudice, but a full-fledged and respected science, accessible to everyone. Such hopes may seem unrealistic to many. However, Aquarius is a sign of desires and hopes. Therefore, astrologers expect that the acquired knowledge will help people discover new truths.

Negative changes

The above predictions come from the positive qualities of Aquarius. However, signs of a new era can be selfishness, inflexibility and indecision, characteristic of this sign of the zodiac. Humanity in its development has not yet overcome the negative qualities and before the emergence of a new race, free from hesitation and prejudice, is still very far away. People have serious problems to solve. We are threatened by famine and epidemics, global wars, overpopulation. We draw on natural resources without limits, depriving the Earth of its ability to sustain life. The greatest danger is atomic energy. It can destroy the entire planet and the people themselves. Learning how to use this natural resource competently and wisely is another task that needs to be solved in the progressive era of Aquarius.

Russia is a symbol of rebirth

Today much is said about the spiritual renewal of mankind. Some experts believe that it will come due to the influence of the Russian ethnic group, which maximally coincides with the symbolism of Aquarius. What arguments are not given in favor of this version. Here are some of them:

  • The mysterious and freedom-loving Russian soul, sung by poets and prose writers, will be able to stir up all the best in humanity.
  • Brilliant scientists were born in Russia (Kurchatov, Mendeleev, Lomonosov, Popov), who made a worthy contribution to the development of world civilization. And this is fully consistent with the spirit of the coming era. This means that the Age of Aquarius for Russia is the most beneficial time.
  • Our country is constantly under a glass slide in the laboratory of the universe. All experiments (public, economic, social) were carried out in Russia.

Mission of Russia

The main task of our country in the new era, astrologers call the unification of all people into a single state, the abolition of all borders and national differences. Material values ​​will lose priority and be replaced by spiritual ones. As a result, humanity must achieve maximum mutual understanding and harmony. The Age of Aquarius for Russia is an opportunity to adequately prove oneself on the world stage. Like it or not, time will tell. In any case, the forecast for the development of our country in the new era is very favorable. “The Russians harness slowly, but they drive fast,” Bismarck said. I want these words to become prophetic.

Sadhana of the Age of Aquarius

This spiritual practice was introduced by Yogi Bhajan on June 21, 1992. It must be done daily for twenty-one years. During this time period, the transition of the Earth into a new era occurs. Morning sadhana traditionally begins with silence. The first words that are spoken during the ceremony are lines from a sacred text written by Jab Ji Sahib. Participants in the process can simply listen or read the text along with the guru. This is followed by a kundalini yoga class to prepare the mind and body for the next stage of sadhana - meditation. It lasts sixty-two minutes and is done without stopping between mantras. The back while singing should be kept straight and the neck lock should be made. This is necessary in order for the energy to freely penetrate the head. This spiritual practice is carried out under the guidance of a Guru. It promotes maximum physical and spiritual cleansing.

Transition Difficulties

There are no clear boundaries in the zodiac constellations, they have different lengths. That is why astrological epochs are not replaced immediately, but gradually. The change of seasons is about the same: spring conquers winter, and autumn wins its rights from summer. The entire twentieth century was the harbinger of the Age of Aquarius. For the next century, the era of Pisces will remind of itself before going down in history. The same long transitional period awaits the end of the Age of Aquarius, when, after 2000 years, it will also sink into oblivion.

Each astrological epoch carries various individual features. Over time, they become the predominant, the main background for the development of mankind. The symbolism inherent in the dominant sign reigns supreme in morality, the system of values, the way of thinking, the structure of societies, worldview, science, mythology, culture and religion. Therefore, a new era will come into its own after it overcomes the remnants of the Piscean era. It is when most of the social structures and humanity as a whole will be reorganized to other value orientations that the Age of Aquarius will come.

The advent of a new era gives people hope. The ruler of this sign is Uranus. It promotes scientific inventions, stimulates technological progress, favors humanitarian achievements. Uranus is also the planet of unconscious goals and will. Humanity has a chance to build a new, more perfect and comfortable world. Or, conversely, lose everything that it has. Time will tell how we will be able to use this opportunity.

When exactly will the Age of Aquarius begin?

The period of 2000 years as an independent historical segment is in full agreement with the data of ethnology and natural science. The creator of the theory of ethnogenesis L.N. Gumilyov believed that the lifetime of an ethnic group is 2000 years, after which the ethnic group either dies or merges with another. Global cycles in the development of the atmosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere also have periods close to two thousand years. Finally, periods of 2000 years in the form of cosmic epochs absolutely fit into the historical annals of mankind.

AGE OF TAURUS (4000 - 2000 BC) was marked by a monumental approach in architecture. Stone is widely used for the construction of megalithic (giant) structures in Egypt and Northern Europe. The image of a bull appears all over the world - among the Egyptians the cult of Apis, on the Ionian islands - Cretan bulls. Under the influence of the countersign of Taurus Scorpio, mummification, temple and secular medicine are being actively developed. In this era, a wooden plow, a lever were invented, new lands were developed, animal husbandry flourished (Taurus is a sign of agriculture!). Under the sign of Taurus, the pantheon of Hindus was formed, the main feature of this religion in the deification of nature, and Taurus serves as the personification of its productive forces.

Foreign astrologers have suggested different years for the beginning of this era from 1762 to 2813. Some believe that the era began in 1962, when many planets accumulated in Aquarius. The famous psychologist C. G. Jung pointed to 1997, because. Uranus entered Aquarius this year. The discordance of opinions is easily explained: it is generally impossible to establish the year of the beginning of the space epoch! After all, we are talking about periods of time that are incomparable with a year.

Aquarius is a friendly sign, so in the next millennium there will be a blurring of borders between individual states to the size of a continent! Already, the borders between European countries are conditional, and a common currency has been introduced. A similar merger will take place on the American continent. Transnational corporations are gaining strength in the world. Total informatization at the beginning of the Aquarian era led to the emergence of global computer networks such as the Internet. Simple telephones will be replaced by teleradio telephones, which will allow you to communicate and see any person, no matter where in the world he is. European and American universities are already experiencing a boom in distance learning (through synchronous tele-communication), in the West, telemedicine is gaining momentum.

Age of Aquarius

I'll go through the old topics where I wrote about the number 11:

1) The Statue of Liberty stands on Fort Wood in the form eleven pointed star

2) The metal of the statue is copper - alchemical Venus metal.

4)11 – female sign. the number of Daena (in astrology - the planets of Proserpine). The symbol of Proserpine is two moons, left and right, facing each other with their bulges, between which there is a center, a point. Yin and Yang.

Aquarius, the most sacred sign of the zodiac, is the fourth of the fixed signs and the third of the airy triad. It represents the affirmation of man on the fourth plane and in the third state of air, spiritual air. The fourth stage of affirmation is finding a person in the para state of vak. It is the speaker himself, in whom the Vak exists as himself. "In the beginning was the Word" - a state that precedes "and the word was God." Therefore, in the para state of vak there is no difference between the word and God. For the Word there was no God, and for God there was no Word. This state can only be described by the negation of all other things, because it has no place in language. Even the Veda describes it as "there was no non-existence, but there was also no being, this was the basis of both." Even the great Shankaracharya called it "not two" (advaita). Lord Krishna mentions this as something that “is, is not, and the basis of both of them.” Therefore, he defined it as "beyond that and conceivable only as that which." The sign of Aquarius represents this state, if it can be called a state at all. Two forces are potentially hidden in it - it is “is and is not”. In the form of two magnificent forces, they descend from the supracosmic plane. They are “measuring” and “understanding” (Mitra and Varuna). Both of them conceive a great inhabitant of the supra-cosmic plane, on this plane he is Vasistha, and on the cosmic plane he is Agastya. These two rishis are the leaders of the spiritual inhabitants of the respective planes. They are above the spiritual level. “The highest group of the hierarchies of creation consists of the so-called divine flames, and they are also spoken of as the fiery lion and the lions of life. They are formless Fire Breaths. ”- says H. P. Blavatsky about the inhabitants of these planes. This can be understood to some extent if we remember that Leo is the opposite sign of Aquarius, and Aquarius represents the more subtle principles of Leo, located in the sushumna, while Leo is the fifth sign of the zodiac (the sign of children). Nothing more can be described.

All numbers, as we know, operate in a sequential series, but the number of the sign of Aquarius works with all at once. It is known as the number of simultaneity, or as that number which represents the eternal now. Solar systems, universes and beings one after another pass through the influence of other numbers, and just as consistently come out from under it. But when this number is in operation, everything disappears and reappears immediately, along with its sequence of deeds. This intermediate gap is the "flood" in its true sense. The Lord, who is the correspondence of Mahadeva (the lord of the eye of Shiva), at this flood saves the universe, like a great fish, and again begins the whole drama of the universe "in due and ancient form." The devas who, after this opening of the temple, discover that they exist, find the tools of the Ritual of Creation lying beside them as eternal beings. Then they "sacrifice the sacrifice by copying it." “The devas got up after the opening. Then how can anyone know about it?” says the Vedic hymn describing this night. The closing and opening of the whole drama is symbolized by Aquarius and Pisces, respectively. Smaller discoveries are made by the horseman, and larger ones by the fish god. The symbol of the first is Jupiter and the symbol of the second is Neptune. Gandharva Vena is the link, he is the Markandeya Puran. Living in creation, he is called Gandharva, and living in the break - Markandeya.
