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 is the dawning of the age of Aquarius
The age of Aquarius
Aquarius!
Aquarius!

Harmony and understanding
Sympathy and trust abounding
No more falsehoods or derisions
Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revalation
And the mind's true liberation
Aquarius!
Aquarius!

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

2060: Dane Rudhyar determined that the last precessional Age of Pisces began in 100BC and since a world age is 2160 years, the official Age of Aquarius begins in this year. He considered that the last 10 percent of each age is its Seed Period during which its influence will begin to be felt and experienced. He mentions that in 1844 a young Persian prophet announced the end of the Islamic era and the beginning of the New Age, the avatar of which would announce himself some nineteen years later. One of his original followers proclaimed himself Baba u llah (Glory of God) the Expected One, And , in 1846 the planet Neptune was also discovered.

Rudhyar believed that the new cycle had already started to release it spiritual-archetypal energies, which are now making their way downward into manifestation, producing a radical upheaval of public institutions focusing around the time of the massing of planets in the sign Capricorn, the ruler of large-cale political organizations.This would constitute a 'rite of passage' for all humanity and, in the destruction of existing and faulty ways of perceiving and organizing the world, humanity would discover a new way of life.

Take a look around (in the US anyway). What is the commonly accepted only way to behave? Like an Aquarius. I've felt that pressure for a long time now:

"You mean...you actually physically FEEL your feelings? That's ridiculous."
"Everything you said about this mystical thing was correct, but I have to be skeptical."
"Why are you crying? Crying doesn't solve anything."
"What do you mean you don't like everyone? I think everyone is fabulous."
"What is it with chicks wanting boyfriends? Why can't men just have casual sex without chicks wanting to fall in LOVE?"
*Fuming silence after realizing Taureans never give up their stance in an argument, angry that they didn't simply realize Aquarius was correct*
"Enjoying so much alone time is unhealthy. I think you're depressed. You have to go be with people or you're sick and need medical help."
Rampant hypocrisy.
Emotional suppression at any cost.
The idea that being fake for the sake of seeming more pleasant than you are is a virtue.

I avoided answering this post because I simply sound so bitter. I suppose I am. But as a Taurus sun/Scorpio rising/Pisces moon, I am tired of being told to stfu about anything I feel and just do whatever everyone else wants me to do and smile and tap-dance while I'm at it.
