Remember that trippy new-age song from the show “Hair” about the dawning of the age of Aquarius? Well, turns out it didn’t just rhyme. We are moving into the beginning of that Zodiacal age, and this Saturday the Moon is in the seventh house and Jupiter aligns with Mars. Ring a bell?
For those of you who are a little foggy on the whole thing, it’s all based an ancient understanding of something called “The Precession of the Equinoxes.” The Earth is like a wobbly top which causes the placement of the constellations, relative to a fixed position on the ground, to change very slowly over time.
For the past 2000 years or so we’ve been in Piscean age. It’s no accident that we entered this age at about the time of Christ (remember that Christian fish symbol?).
We are now entering, or on the cusp of entering, the age of Aquarius. Just as the rising sun signals a shift in the activity, consciousness and patterns of the natural world (or the onset of a new season, take your pick), so too these astrological ages carry with them a shift in consciousness and a fundamental change in the energetic frequency of the entire world.
The coolest thing for me is the fact that I’ll be in Egypt, leading our “Spirit of Moses” tour when this celestial alignment occurs on the February 14th. As a matter of fact, it will be the first day of our trip!
Here are some further explanations sent me by friends and colleagues:
We measure our global sense of both space (latitude and longitude) and time (universal time – UT or GMT) from the prime meridian located at Greenwich, England.
So we can perceive the collective influence of this momentous astrological event by looking at the alignment from this globally ‘centered’ perspective.
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 the Cosmos actually embodies this perfect alignment to support our collective manifestation of love and peace and 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.
At 7.25am on 14th February – and for the 18 minutes of the alignment, I invite you, in the universal heart, to add your own intention for love and peace and to co-create the dawning of the Age of Aquarius to that of the Cosmos. In whatever way feels appropriate for you, you may choose to align with7.25am (UT) or 7.25am local time energizing a wave of intention that will surge around the Earth.

Earth is entering its first year in the age of aquarius, what does this mean for you? you must decide whether you will be swallowed as a victim of a happening, or move as an evolving participant. this is the year where the piscean age will diminish its energy and presence on humanity; this is the year where the age of pisces will bow out of your life, this is your first year as a universal aquarian.
The age of aquarius is not an age of faith and hope, but one of higher application of science and reality and one of higher spirituality; anything you hold onto from the piscean age will drag you down to lower emotional levels. enough people will seek individual transformation and that is what will lend itself to this age of mass movement. this almost sounds like a paradoxical position for individual transformation. in other words, community will gather its energy for a critical mass in order to bring about unexpected change.
May your journeys in your first year of birth as an aquarium be filled with uncompromising upward movement, knowledge, and transformation
Greg, wow what can I say. Beautifully stated as always.
In Peace & Beauty,
Tamara
A vinda do Messias…
Existe nos Céus um vestibular para o novo messias de Aquarius. Entre os candidatos iluminados e não-iluminados. Cada deus defende seu pupilo e no final um levará o prêmio.

I read all this and I still don’t know what year the age of Aquarius began or will begin????????????
Hey Daniel- there is no single “year” when any Zodical age definitively begins. These ages last for thousands of years (and a great zodiacal year last for TENS of thousands of years) so the boundary between the ages is decades, if not centuries, long – depending on who you ask. What was interesting about the date referred to in the article was that a very specific (and exact) alignment of things happened – and those matched the famous lines from the song “Aquarius.” Hope this helps.
