Age of Aquarius

Let me say this at the outset. I am not an astrologer. I received the text below in an e mail before 2/14/09. I’m taking their word for it that we are now officially in the Age of Aquarius. I nearly cried.

I saw Hair at the Aquarius theater in LA sometime between 1969 and 1970. We were in the decade of violence of the 60’s – assassinations, race riots, the Viet Nam war.  The Kent State shootings were in 1970. Very dark times when unthinkable things were happening in our country.

I think this movement was stimulated out of the Aquarius energy – also the emergence and election of Barack Obama. It’s been a long time coming for me and it gives me hope.

Dawning of Aquarius

“When the Moon is in the Seventh House, and Jupiter aligns with Mars

Then peace shall guide the planets, and love will steer the stars

This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius ….

******************

Harmony and understanding

Sympathy and trust abounding

No more forces of derision

Golden living dreams of visions

Mystic crystal revelations

And the mind’s true liberation

At dawn on 14th February the day dedicated to St Valentine, the patron saint of Love, the Moon in Libra enters the seventh house of relationships. And Jupiter and Mars are aligned in Aquarius in the twelfth house of spiritual transformation.

Forty years ago, the intuitive words of a song called Aquarius, brought the dawning of the new age into our collective awareness:

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.

At dawn on 14th February (2009) the Cosmos actually embodies this perfect alignment to support our collective manifestation of love and peace and the dawning of the Age of Aquarius.

The Aquarian chart of 14th February reveals an incredible concentration of cosmic influences blending with the energies of Aquarius in the twelfth house. Expansive Jupiter and energetic Mars are aligned with the higher purpose of the North Node. The presence of Chiron the wounded healer offers us the opportunity to heal the schisms that have separated us for so long. Neptune emphasizes collective humanitarian movements and the co-creation of social justice. And the presence of the radiant Sun enlightens the entire alignment.

Mercury also in the twelfth house but just beyond the cusp in Capricorn, allies with transformational Pluto to communicate and anchor the Shift throughout our global structures and institutions.

The Moon in Libra in the seventh house emphasizes harmonious real –ationships.

Venus in Aries in the first house energizes and empowers dynamic co-creativity.

And whilst Saturn the great task master in opposition to Uranus the unexpected awakener is suggesting an ongoing confrontation as the dregs of the unsustainable old paradigm reluctantly give way to the untested hope of the new, their placements in Virgo and Pisces brings practical altruism and visionary inspiration to the transition. “
