The Approaching of Age of Aquarius

Many religions, cultures, and groups anticipated the Golden Age. Throughout history it has been spoken of. The New Age of peace and brotherhood. The Mayans believed the New World is coming December 21st, 2012. Jesus spoke of the water bearer coming will be the return of the Christ. Astrologers say that we are approaching the Age of Aquarius. But they debate on when it will begin. Some think it began centuries ago. Some think it will begin as late as 2500s. Whether it begin yet or not, I noticed signs that we are definitely feeling the Age of Aquarius.

I think one of the first signs that we are approaching the Age of Aquarius is the discovery of Uranus, the sign's ruling planet. It coincided with the century's Age of Enlightenment and Revolutions. I think we began feeling the energies of the Age of Aquarius as Philosophers and Free Thinkers began writing and debating Freedom, Civil Rights, and Equality. Aquarius rules new higher thoughts, philosophy, revolution, and brotherhood. The Age of Enlightenment was just that. People have had it with the way their life was running and were ready for change. People were ready for a revolution. During the 18th century we had new ideas, rebellions, and revolutions to establish a new form of government in which the people are free and everyone is equal.

In the 19th and 20th century we started to move more and more into technology and science and turn away from religion. Electricity was invented. It is also ruled by Aquarius. We had started using logic and science to understand our world. We began inventing things to help us in our daily lives. Inventions and humanitarian are Aquarian traits. Astronomy flourished. Our scientists slowly began replacing priests. The Internet was invented. With one click, we can now access limitless information and answers to any question. It is also ruled by Aquarius. Lightning-speed intuition. Where we have the answer instantly. Also global connections and union. Universal Identity.

Hippies came about and we even had a song "Age of Aquarius". New philosophies and beliefs began to form. New Thought and New Age movements began. Divine Science, Scientifici Religion, and Religious Science slowly took upon its roots. Such philosophies blend Science, Religion, and Spirituality into one philosophy. To understand the greater. To help all of people. One of the founders Religious Science, Ernest Holmes, was endorsed and became quite popular in his day. He was an Aquarius. Where as the Age of Pisces was the age of religion, faith, myths, and personal sacrifice (eg. charity) which seems to have been prominent the most until 18th century or so, now its like we have entered a new world! A new age so to say, actually. And that is the Age of Aquarius.

I don't believe we are yet in the Age of Aquarius. But I do believe we are approaching it. We are at the dawn of the Age of Aquarius. I think that that time portal is December 21, 2012. We shall see. And Whether that is the date or not, we know it is coming.

Two Dominant Elements- Type of a person you are

If you have, and are most likely to have, 2 elements being more than the other 2, then you fall in the category of a person based on your 2 dominant elements. Truth is, you need every element. They all work together. A particular sign has opposite characteristics of its neighboring signs and its opposite signs.

For example if you're an Aries, you have the following sign of Taurus and the preceding sign of Pisces with the opposite sign of Libra. Being an outgoing self-centered individual with a good drive yet possibly an impulsive person, you share some characteristics and have some opposite traits in of Taurus, Pisces, and Libra. All having different elements from your sign. Aries is fire, Libra is air, Taurus is earth, and Pisces is water.

The characteristics of Taurus are opposite from Aries is that Taurus are stable, even slow individuals. They are based on love as their ruling planet is Venus, different from all self-centered energy of Aries. Pisces that proceed Aries are all about the other person. All empathy. Mutable water sign feels all kinds of emotions from all over him/her. But might feel quite weak and taken advantage of. Libra that is opposite of Aries are think-then-do signs. Another Venus ruled sign that is about love. Libra are easygoing and can be quite lazy, opposite from Aries that are all drive and doing.

You can learn from the signs that neighbor you and oppose you. All being different elements. Truth is, you need something of another element. For example water can profit from subjective nature of air. They can also, especially Cancer and Pisces, profit from the self-confident and outgoing element of fire. Water signs can feel a lot of ground and security that they need, from having earth in their chart.

Water and Fire: You are very emotional being. You have great instincts and would rather follow your intuition and carry out duties based on that. Feelings dominate your mind. You are probably quite subjective. You have both a caring and intuitive side and confident and self-assured. The fall is in being too subjective and not having the ground to carry out your desires.

Water and Earth: Very compatible combo. You are both emotional and secure. You are able to both secure yourself materialistically and emotionally. You have both intuition and common sense.

Water and Air: You are a social person. You just like people a lot. You both like initiating conversations as well as being loyal on a deeper level. You are both intelligent and intuitive. Your mind and your heart just work together. You are able to understand everything from technology to spirituality.

Air and Fire: A very compatible pair. You have both the ideas and the drive to get things done. You know what you are doing and do it immediately and quickly. You do not like to waste your time and like to have your ideas going.

Air and Earth: You have both ideas and common sense. You are original as well as realistic. The earth in you can ground your airy ideas with its' ambitious nature.

Fire and Earth: You are a person that is strongly based upon your self. You have a big drive and are very ambtious. You are both a good initiator and a good finisher. A hard worker. You are optimistic and spirited but also realistic and down to earth. You might seem selfish to other people. But its because you feel the need to achieve your heart's desires and make yourself feel secure.

Of course these are only your natal chart traits. Your born traits. The Golden Rule is that you have far more power over astrology than it has over you. Free Will is the strongest force and know that at any time you can change yourself and free yourself from unwanted Karma.
