To: alt.magick.tyagi,alt.astrology,alt.divination From: nagasiva@luckymojo.com (Seyfert-1) Subject: The Age of Aquarius and its Timing Date: Wed, 16 Aug 2000 07:16:17 GMT 5000/06/23/V om ... coming upon the notion of the transitional periods of time, I was curious about the variety of speculation concerning the pinpointing of the 'start of the Aquarian Age'. this appears to differ based on religious, astrological and astronomical interpretation, depending upon how one divides up the sky, whether one counts the New Age to start from some observable point such as sunrise at the vernal equinox in the next sign back (precession), or some other time posterior to this (as in a conjunction or a triple-conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn). the range for this Aquarian start varied reporting dates between early 19th century to the 2600s. most seemed to agree that 2160 years make up the period of time for each "Age", and that precession related to the wobble of Earth like a top, but where things divided up after this seemed variable with a great number wanting some kind of additional marker (as is evident in many religious texts). the Jupiter/Saturn conjunction was of course popular because these "wanderers" (planets) were of greatest duration in periodicity, fairly regularly conjunct (20 years or so I think), and, yet have 'triple-conjunctions' in which retrograde motion interrupts the conjunction, as seen from Earth, reverses it, and, after the retrograde ends, repeats it. these are less common and less regular, and more highly regarded. in researching all of this I came across the following URLs which may be of interest to those who like to read about archaeoastronomy with relation to ages and astrology (in alphabetic order not sequenced by value): Alignment of all 9 planets in 1999 http://www.nature.net/forums/load/weather/msg0122074010368.html The Aquarian Age http://www.rosicrucian.com/zineen/magen119.htm Astrologer Richard Nolle's 3000-Year Jupiter-Saturn Conjunction Table http://www.inficad.com/~rnolle/features/tables/geo/ju-sa/ju000sa.html (The Laura Lee Show) Levine Gift of the Magi http://www.lauralee.com/levine2.htm The Mill of Time http://www.technosophy.com/milltime.htm The Mystery of the Ages Solved http://www.aquarian-age.net/flory.html Seven Suns Searching for the Star in the East (I) http://www.sevensuns.com/jep71.htm Searching for the Star in the East (II) http://www.sevensuns.com/jep72.htm"> Symbols of the Twelve -- The Zodiac http://www.vermontel.net/~vtsophia/zodtrop1.htm Seyfert-1 -- FREE HOODOO CATALOGUE! send street address to: catalogue@luckymojo.com mailto:nagasiva@luckymojo.com ; http://www.luckymojo.com/nagasiva.html ; mailto:boboroshi@satanservice.org ; http://www.satanservice.org/ emailed replies may be posted; cc replies if response desired
