Each astrological age is about 2000 years. The Age of Pisces started with birth of Jesus Christ around 4-6 BC. Age of Aquarius approximately started around 1985 AD with the end of Age of Pisces.
The zodiac system comes from Babylonian astronomy which originated around the 5th century BC. The Zodiac is a belt of the sky about 18° wide through which the Sun, Moon, and planets appear to move. It’s divided into 12 signs, each spanning 30° of the 360° celestial circle or the ecliptic.
It's an ancient secret that not all zodiac signs are equal. The air is at the top, followed by fire, followed by water with the earth at the bottom. The fixed signs are dominant, the cardinal signs are moving and the mutable signs are adapting. Not everyone manifests their sign. Some qualities of the sign will be apparent to varying degrees in an individual.
The 1960s were a time of massive upheaval with civil rights movement, anti-Vietnam war protests, second-wave feminism, environmental awareness, psychedelic exploration and spiritual experimentation. Many in the counterculture saw themselves as heralding a new era of consciousness, an Age of Aquarius, but this was later proved not true as Age of Aquarius began around 1985. In the 60s, the Age of Aquarius became a myth of transformation: humanity leaving behind war, oppression, and rigid traditions for a new age of love, unity and progress. The phrase became famous through the 1967 musical Hair and especially the song “Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In”. While the utopian visions didn’t fully materialize, the symbolism of the Age of Aquarius still resonates in cultural memory as the dream of a better world born in the 1960s counterculture.
We’re witnessing robotics, biotechnology and genetic engineering, space exploration & private spaceflight, renewable energy and climate tech. These are classic Aquarian markers — disruptive innovations reshaping human society. Post 1985, when Ronald Reagan was the President of the USA, an Aquarius, we have seen the Fall of the Berlin Wall, decolonization and racial justice movements, push for universal basic income, healthcare and digital rights, and rise of the internet. The current Aquarian age challenges hierarchies, traditions and rigid hegemony.
Aquarius is also linked to cosmic awareness and the sense of humanity as a unified species. If the Aquarian energy continues unfolding, the 21st century may be marked by a planetary civilization connected through technology, a reimagining of economics and politics, radical freedom movements and social experiments in living, breakthroughs that expand human identity — from space exploration to science-human symbiosis. However, most of these are dependent on the emergence of a true God as Europeans believe is already happening and we may see paradigm shifts that will affect the Age of Aquarius.
