What astrological epoch are we currently in?
The Age of Aquarius is now in full swing. For many, there was a noticeable shift in energy from 2020 to 2021, albeit both years were a roller coaster. Apart with navigating the Covid era, we’ve also been told that we’ve entered a new astrological phase.
What makes it unique? That’s where things get a bit tricky, but we’ve sought the expertise of psychic and astrologer Inbaal Honigman to help us figure it out. However, keep in mind that the Age of Aquarius is frequently linked to social action, equality, and advancement. Finally. Everything you need to know is right here…
How can you figure out what astrological year your residence is in?
To use this astrological timing technique, you must know your birth time and Ascendant Sign (or Rising Sign).
Let’s first clarify what Annual Profections are before attempting to calculate our own.
The basic answer is that your unique horoscope or birth chart assigns you a planet that becomes more energized with each passing year.
The planet that is your annual ruler is known as the ‘Time Lord,’ or the Lord of the Year, similar to the Lord of the Dance if you recall the jig!
If Venus is your ‘Year Lord,’ you may find that a Venus Retrograde, with a transit to your own Venus or a Libra House, draws you into the activity. Alternatively, during a Mercury year, you may feel particularly linked to Mercury Retrograde.

Step 2: Determine your current year based on your age and the planet you are most sensitive to this year (i.e. Mars). You may also look back and forth in time!
Step 3: Investigate that planet in your horoscope to learn more about your personal relationship with it and how it is influencing you this year…
Step 4: Throughout the year, from one birthday to the eve of the next, mark out the transits of the planet (i.e. Mars) and take note of what that planet is doing (both as it moves around the Zodiac and as it touches your own chart).
Here’s an easy way to figure out what year you’re in by house:
Find your age by number, then look for the house it belongs to on the inner wheel…
Your years unfold as you move across the horoscope’s houses (one through twelve), with the eleventh house representing your eleventh year.
You start over at 13 years old, 25, 37, and so on because there are twelve households.
Another way to look at it is as follows:
- The First House of Perfection Year, from birth to the eve of your first birthday, 12, 24, 36, 48, and so on.
- Profection in the Second House Year, beginning with your first birthday and ending with your second birthday, 13, 25, 37, and so on.
- Year of the Third House, age 2, 14, 26, 38, etc.
- Year of the Fourth House, age 3, 15, 27, 39, 51…
- Year of the Fifth House, sweet 16, sweet 16, sweet 16, sweet 16, sweet 16, sweet 16, sweet 16, sweet 16, sweet 16, sweet 16, sweet 16, sweet 16, sweet 16, sweet 16, sweet 16, sweet
- Year of the Sixth House, ages 5, 17, and 29,
- At the age of six, you are in the seventh house of perfection.
- At the age of seven, he is in his eighth year of house perfection.
- Year of Profection in the Ninth House, at the age of eight.
- At the age of nine, you are in the tenth house of perfection.
- Profection in the Eleventh House Year, age 10, age 22, age 34, age 46, and so forth.
- Year of the Twelfth House, age 11, age 23, age 34, age 47, etc.
The most crucial thing to know is your ascendant sign, also known as your rising sign, which indicates your first year. Now, let’s get started with a little guide to your house rulers…

Remember, as you start a new Profection Year, each birthday grants you the opportunity to work with a new planet…
What year did I move into my first house?
In chronological order, the 12 homes correspond to your age. Your first year of life, when you are technically 0 years old, is represented by the 1st House. You move into the 2nd House when you turn one. Each year on your birthday, your age progresses from one home to the next. This indicates that you will return to the 1st House every time your birthday age is a multiple of 12. Every 12 years, you go back to the house and discuss subjects from the previous 12 years. You can expand on those themes and areas of life as you gain experience, knowledge, and maturity.
To see which house and themes are highlighted for you this year, look for your age in the right-hand column of the table (direction below).
When you turn 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, or 84, you may want to organize an extra spectacular celebration. Even though those ages appear arbitrary and have nothing to do with the culturally significant decade birthdays of 30, 40, 50, or 60, they are astrologically significant because they emphasize your unique personality. It’s 1st House year, and the 1st House is all about you. It’s your chart’s most personal and “you-focused” section. These years will be ideal for pursuing own interests, hobbies, and passions. At such ages, you may prioritize yourself more, especially if you are used to doing a lot for others.
In astrology, what is a perfection year?
Based on what the stars looked like on the day we were born, astrology may teach us a lot about ourselves. A natal or zodiac chart reading can give you insight into yourself and your personality, as well as reveal your mood inclinations and other realizations. If you want a more detailed study of your life, such as what’s in store for the coming year, you should get a chart reading that tells you about the coming year and the transits that will occur in your life. When an astrologer performs this type of reading for you, they will consider what planets are transiting your houses as well as the year you were born. Annual Profections are “a technique devised in the Hellenistic Tradition of Astrology, and the way it works is that the Ascendant, or the first house, indicating the native, advances annually, moving into the next sign,” according to Astrology by Max. Each year, you will transit through different signs depending on your rising sign. While the themes will remain in the houses, how you experience them will be determined by the sign that passes through that dwelling. Continue reading to learn more about what each home represents and when you will encounter them.
When did the Age of Aquarius begin?
The precise commencement date of this new epoch is debatable. Some astrologers believe it will begin on the vernal equinox in the northern hemisphere on March 20, 2021, while others, like as Kelly, believe it will begin in December 2020. “She claims it’s more conceptual than you might believe. “There is no clear agreement on when it will begin. What we do know is that this is a period associated with hope and creativity in general. When it happened last, in the 19th century, it was a time of technological, industrial, and government revolutions. All of these characteristics are Aquarian.
How long have we been in the Aquarius age?
While the “Aquarius Season” lasts 30 days, the Aquarius Age is claimed to last 2,160 years. So, what is Aquarius Season, and how does it differ from the age? Let’s go back and look at the background of everyone’s favorite water-bearer in both modern astrology and its roots in ancient astronomy before we come to any conclusions.
Aquarian Roots
Aquarius is a Latin term that means “water-carrier, water-pourer.” Its astrological sign is water, yet it has the appearance of an electrical jolt. Aquarius connects us to forces of originality, eccentricity, independence, bold expression, and epiphanies of all kinds, and properly so. It yearns for innovation and points us in the direction of what is possible in the future. It catalyzes creativity, new discoveries, or exhilarating novelty when sparked. Technology advances are fueled by activated Aquarius energy in our culture, which is arguably what brought us the Internet. However, Aquarius energy pushes us to think about social justice as a component of the collective and communal experience.
Aquarius, like all planets and zodiac signs, isn’t all excitement and forward-thinking movement; it also has a dark side. It can be distant, non-committal, impetuous, alienated, or restless in Aquarius. Aquarius energy enjoys getting things started but not necessarily finishing them. Keep an eye out for the famed Aquarian “Last Unicorn Syndrome,” in which it believes it is the first and only person to think of an idea.
Aquarius is the archetypal misfit, lone wolf, or mad scientist. It’s a rebel who sometimes has a cause and sometimes doesn’t. Aquarius was ruled or regulated by Saturn in traditional astrology, while many modern astrologers now identify it with Uranus because Uranus had not yet been found. Saturn is said to be the “night ruler,” whereas Uranus is said to be the “day ruler.”
While we all have Aquarius or Uranus in our natal astrology charts, its influence on our lives or self-expression is determined by our unique natal astrology chart. Those born under the sign of Aquarius (Sun, Moon, or Rising) may feel particularly drawn to the Aquarius Season or Age. Having your Sun or Moon in the 11th house or touching the planet Uranus can make you identify with Aquarian characteristics, but that is an astrology topic for another day. How does the Aquarius Season or the Aquarius Age affect us if some of us are more “Aquarian” than others? Is it merely a “New Age” word, or does it represent communal wisdom?
Historical Context: The “Age of Aquarius
While everyone of us has a unique astrological blueprint, the current position of the stars and planets in the sky adds another depth to our specific experience. We all feel the energy when the Sun is in the sign of Aquarius, just as we do when there is a new moon (like on February 4 in Aquarius). The Age of Aquarius, on the other hand, is a much larger cycle with less clarity.
Astrological ages refer to the evolution and development of civilization as a whole, rather than just an individual.
Humankind has gone through six primary periods, which correspond to the 12 tropical zodiac signs, according to astrologers all across the world. Each one lasts approximately 2,100 years. Because the time frame is so wide, it’s difficult to say when each of these time frames begins or ends. Of course, large-scale cycles aren’t exclusive to Western astrology. These patterns are also mentioned in the Mayan calendar and the Sanskrit scriptures’ Kali Yuga.
When modern astrologers speak of the Age of Aquarius, they are referring to a phenomenon involving the Earth’s backward motion and its connection to the sign of Aquarius. An ancient astronomer came up with the concept of the “precession of the zodiac” around 190 B.C.E. Because of the wobble in the Earth’s rotation, the constellation behind the Sun at Vernal Equinox or the eclipticpath of the Sun through the sky changes. (Earth, it turns out, isn’t as steady as we thought, and it has a retrograde cycle.)
The qualities of each zodiac Sun sign are carried over into the Astrological Age of that time. We can observe important communal themes that have been influenced by the “age” we are living in in this way. According to Nicholas Campion’s research, the Age of Aquarius began around 1447 A.D.E. in the twentieth century and will last until 3597 A.D.E. According to some astrologers, it started in 2012. Around 1999, we began to hear more about the Age of Aquarius and its connections to the Mayan Calendar.
I prefer astrologer Susan Miller’s chronology theories, which place the Age of Aries between 2000 B.C.E. and 1 A.C.E., with a lot of Greek and Roman conflict. The Age of Pisces, with its emphasis on spirituality, coincides with the birth of many of the world’s great faiths. We’re presently in the Age of Aquarius, a period marked by rapid technological developments (ahem, the Internet or robotics) or (hopefully) a shift toward communal consciousness and community.
The energies of Aquarius assist us in shifting and evolving structures that allow us to go forward into what is fresh and next in our progress. Activate and enjoy your own Aquarian nature through community, action, a new creative endeavour, or even recognizing your weirdness, whether the Age of Aquarius has begun or is about to begin. Perhaps try something new or finally figure out how to use some of your phone’s more advanced functions. It’s a time to gather together in community while embracing our particular uniqueness, no matter how you catalyze and connect to Aquarius.
Rebecca Farrar earned her M.A. in Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness (PCC) from the California Institute of Integral Studies. “Stargazing: Re-enchantment Through Language” was the title of her thesis, which combined philology, consciousness studies, and enchantment with the stars. Rick Tarnas, archetypal astrologer, cosmologist Brian Swimme, activist Joanna Macy, and psychotherapist Stan Grof have all taught her. C.G. Jung, Owen Barfield, Bill Plotkin, Marianne Woodman, Thomas Berry, and Clarissa Pinkola Estes are among her other influences. Cosmicopia, Burning Man’s first astrological camp, was also founded by me. Most recently, I was featured in the She Wolfe Tarot deck and an upcoming documentary called Conscious: Fulfilling Our Higher Evolutionary Potential. She belongs to the International Society for Astrological Research (ISAR), the San Francisco Astrological Society (SFAS), the Association for the Study of Women and Mythology (ASWM), and the Depth Psychology Alliance, among others (DPA).

th House Profection Year
Long-distance travel, expansion, foreign locations, higher education and learning, philosophy, Astrology, spirituality, and religion are all covered in this category. The Sun is supposed to be having a good time here. This year, you might be interested in trying a new type of education, broadening your knowledge in some way, broadening your viewpoint through philosophical or intellectual debates, or literally traveling overseas or engaging in some way with foreigners. Spirituality, religion, and even Astrology may play a bigger role in your life!
th House Profection Year
This is the House of careers, public image, and persona, as well as being in the spotlight. If your Midheaven (MC) line is also present, it could indicate your calling, vocation, and purpose, as well as your occupation. It can also refer to the father and other paternal characters. This year, you are likely to experience substantial changes in your career, to become more publicly known in some way, or to make significant changes, decisions, or advancement in your life and profession.
th House Profection Year
Friendships and groupings, partnerships, communities, humanitarianism, and charity are all represented in this House. When this location is engaged, your close friends may become more prominent in your life, you may join additional memberships and groups, or you may be involved in some kind of collaborative effort. Jupiter is in a happy mood here, so it’s also known as a lucky spotyou might get a boost in your hopes, wishes, and dreams!
th House Profection Year
The dark and hidden things, the subconscious, unconscious, secrets, intuition, nightmares, trauma, past lifetimes, triggers, areas of suffering or loss, and rejuvenation are all aspects of this placement. You may feel the need to retreat and rediscover yourself during your 12th Profected year. Saturn is having a good time here. It may be a more difficult year of seclusion, yet out of this respite emerges a more powerful awakening. Your mental health may take center stage in your life or in locations where you are isolated, such as hospitals and prisons.
If you are a Sagittarius Rising, for example, you will be in a 10th House Profection year in Virgo when you are 33 years old. Characteristics of Virgo and the 10th House will be activated for you. Mercury, the ruler of Virgo, will be extremely essential for you this year (your timelord), and you may look at Mercury’s position in your own chart to see where he falls. It may bring themes of travel, philosophy, publishing, and Astrology into your 10th House especially if it is in the 9th House. Mercury will also be the ruler of your 7th House of Relationships (in Gemini) natally, bringing these themes into play.
Your 33rd year might be a pivotal career year, with a focus on healing and service (10th House in Virgo), and you could collaborate on a book or travel extensively with your partner for business (Mercury in the 9th Natally also ruling the 7th House). Following that, you can focus on Mercury’s transits and aspects to other planets.
What is astrology’s 7th house?
The 7th house, ruled by Libra, is concerned with relationships and how we conduct ourselves in them.
It is traditionally known as the house of marriage, but it governs all of our connections, including lovers, business partners, and even enemies.
“Unlike the 5th house, where sex, pleasure, and what we seek in another person reside, the 7th house is recognized as the house of marriage and committed or contractual partnering,” says astrologer Corina Crysler.
“It can also reveal what we require in our relationships, as well as the patterns we continue to have.”
