Officially, we are living in the Age of Aquarius. Although both years have been challenging, there has clearly been a change in energy from 2020 to 2021. Along with navigating the Covid era, a brand-new astrological era is also claimed to have begun.
Why is it unique? That’s where things get a little tricky, but psychic and astrologer Inbaal Honigman is here to assist us out with the details. However, be aware that the Age of Aquarius is frequently linked to social change, equality, and advancement. Finally. Here is all the information you require.

Which zodiac age is earth in right now?
The development and fall of civilizations or cultural trends, according to astrologers, may be influenced by the astrological age.
Electricity, computers, flying, democracy, freedom, humanitarianism, idealism, modernization, astrology, nerve disorders, revolt, nonconformity, philanthropy, veracity, perseverance, humanity, and irresolution are some of the traditional associations with Aquarius.
According to some estimates, the Age of Aquarius began in 1844, heralded by Siyyid ‘Al Muammad (18191850), the founder of Bbism.
Although the beginning of the Aquarian Age is unknown, Marcia Moore and Mark Douglas supported the idea that the invention of electricity, the Industrial Revolution, and the American Revolution were all products of this era. Regarding the trends they think will emerge in the Aquarian Age, Moore and Douglas make a number of predictions.
Many astrologers share the belief that the Age of Aquarius marks the moment when humanity reclaims control of the planet and its own destiny as its rightful inheritance. According to this view, humanity’s destiny is the revelation of truth and the expansion of consciousness, and some individuals will advance past others in their journey toward enlightenment and thus be recognized as the new world leaders.
In the Aquarian Age, knowledge will only be valued for its ability to win wars, according to proponents of medieval astrology; knowledge and science will be abused, rather than industry and trade; and the Aquarian Age will be a Dark Age where religion is regarded as offensive. The Pisces world, where religion is the opiate of the masses, will be replaced in the Aquarian Age by a world ruled by secretive, power-hungry elites seeking absolute power over others.
According to another perspective, the emergence of scientific rationalism, the decline of religious influence, the increased attention paid to human rights since the 1780s, the exponential advancement of technology, the invention of flight, and the development of space travel are all indications that the Age of Aquarius has arrived.
According to a “wave” explanation of the changing Great Ages, the Age of Aquarius won’t arrive on a certain day but would instead start to take hold over a number of years, much like how the tide rushes forward gradually rather than all at once.
The Age of Aquarius, according to Rudolf Steiner, will begin in 3573. Each age is exactly 2,160 years in Steiner’s method. This structure indicates that the Age of Pisces has been in effect since 1413. Since people must first develop their faculties in order to enter the ethereal world, Rudolf Steiner spoke of two major spiritual occurrences: the return of Christ in the ethereal realm (rather than in a physical body), and the manifestation of Ahriman, Zoroaster’s “destructive spirit” that will attempt to thwart human evolution.
August Vandekerkhove wrote the following in a feminism-related piece that appeared in the French daily La Fronde on February 26, 1890: “This year’s Aquarius cycle will begin around March 21. The female is ruled by Aquarius “. In this day and age, he continues, women will be on par with men.
The first six planets, the Sun, the Moon, and the constellation Aquarius were in alignment on February 4, 1962, which was the start of the “Age of Aquarius,” according to Gnostic philosopher Samael Aun Weor.
Which zodiac sign are we currently in?
It turns out that the dates for the Western zodiac calendar have changed, with each one beginning much later. Those Capricorns who were born between early January and mid-February are now Sagittarius.
early to mid-July births of cancer? Quit being such emotional whiners. Actually, you’re a Gemini.
Oh, and Ophiuchus is the new 13th astrological sign. We are aware that sounds like a “Matrix” character. However, as of today, everyone who was born between November 29 and December 17 is an Ophiuchus.
Is the Year 2022 the Aquarius Age?
There is disagreement over the precise beginning date of this new age. Some astrologers assert that it begins on March 20, 2021, the northern hemisphere’s vernal equinox, while others, like Kelly, emphasize the conjunction that took place in December 2020. “She claims that it is more conceptual than you may imagine. “On the exact time it begins, there is no consensus. We do know that this era is often characterized by optimism and creativity. The previous time it happened, in the 19th century, was a time of technological, industrial, and political changes. All of these qualities are Aquarian.
Every 2150 years, what takes place?
Astronomy has nothing to do with the Age of Aquarius. An actual motion of the Earth known as precession causes an astrological age, which is why it exists. The Pole Star’s characteristics alter with time due to precession. Precessional cycles last 25,800 years. The zodiac also has 12 constellations. Therefore, at the time of the vernal equinox, the sun’s position in front of the background stars moves in front of a new zodiacal constellation approximately every 2,150 years. At that point, one could argue that a new era had begun.
The vernal equinox point, or occasionally the March or spring equinox point, refers to the spot on the sun in the sky at the vernal equinox. The vernal equinox point is reported to shift from in front of the constellation Pisces to in front of the constellation Aquarius, signaling the start of the Age of Aquarius.
When that will occur should have a definite answer. When will the sun be directly overhead in Aquarius during the equinox? When will the Aquarian Age start?
However, there are no simple solutions. This often asked question can be answered in a variety of ways.
Age of Aquarius in astronomy
Let’s look at the solution from an astronomical perspective. The International Astronomical Union (or IAU) took on the responsibility of officially naming and describing everything astronomical in the 20th century. In 1930, the IAU established “formal constellation borders. As a result, astronomers frequently use the IAU constellation borders to declare the start of the Aquarian Age. However, astrologists and New Age practitioners may or may not decide to use the same restrictions.
One who follows the IAU’s definitions is renowned Belgian astronomer and mathematical wizard Jean Meeus. His calculations show that in 68 B.C., during the March equinox, the sun moved from in front of the constellation Aries to in front of the constellation Pisces. The March equinox will enter the constellation Aquarius in 2597, according to Meeus once more.
These dates are astronomical in nature and were determined using 1930 IAU constellation limits.
The constellations have various sizes according to IAU definitions. However, astrologists frequently divide the zodiac into 12 equal parts. So, that is a significant distinction between how astronomers and astrologers view the constellations.
In order to determine when the Age of Aquarius starts, you must also take into account when the Age of Pisces began. It appears that there is no clear agreement among astrologers as to the exact start date of the Age of Pisces. Therefore, it is unclear when the Age of Aquarius officially starts. The approximate dates for the beginning of the Age of Aquarius, according to Nicholas Campion’s The Book of World Horoscopes, are between 1447 and 3597 A.D. Campion also examined published astrological-related material on the subject. He asserted that the majority of authors place the Age of Aquarius in the 20th century (29 claims). The twenty-fourth century comes in second (12 claims). By the way, Campion is the Sophia Center’s director and the M.A. program’s course director in cultural astronomy and astrology at the University of Wales, Lampeter. Here are Campion’s credentials.
