The Age of Aquarius vs. The Age Of Pisces: Your Guide To The Earth’s Evolutionary Cycles

Your existence at this precious moment in time is an astronomical miracle: welcome to the Age of Pisces

Do you feel that? The revolutionary energy swirling through the collective air, pushing us toward a progressive new world order? More humans are tuning into the Earth’s evolutionary cosmic cycle more than ever. However, the association with the astrological Age of Aquarius is a false depiction of reality, painted by pop culture and new age movements. We are fully submerged in the astrological Age of Pisces – a transcendental chapter of collective spiritual awakenings, exploration, empathy, honoring sacred duality, empowering feminine rulers, and remembering our connection to the divine.

What Is A Great Age?

The cyclical rotation of our planet ensures that one zodiacal energy reigns over us all, guiding us through a heavenly mission to usher Earth through a fated transformation. This zodiacal energy is determined by the constellation in which the Sun rests on the Vernal (spring) equinox, in the northern hemisphere. However, the universe is alive, slowly shifting as the Earth wobbles on it’s rotation and the constellations move. The Sun won’t absorb the archetypal character of one constellation forever. Once it completes its (approximate) 2,150-year-long cycle through a constellation and enters the next, 1 Great Age is complete. After 26,000 years (approximately), the Sun voyages through all 12 zodiacal constellations, signifying the completion of an astronomical cycle of precession.

The development of the Great Ages proceeds backward, quite like retrograde planets, making the Age of Pisces the first Great Age rather than the last. It’s a miracle that your soul came here to initiate and facilitate this magnificent mission. To bring more light to Earth. To unveil a loving and holistic way of being. To inspire trust, exploration, and sensitivity, dissolving the destructive manifestations of egoic consciousness that manifested during the explosive Age of Aries. 



Journeying from the Age of Aries into the Age of Pisces

Once upon a time, the Vernal equinox pointed to Aries – the individualistic, competitive, courageous, pioneer, and warrior archetype. During the Mars-ruled Age of Aries, the Earth saw the rise and fall of history's greatest empires, advancements in military tools and technology, and the ascension of monotheistic religions. Rigid and authoritarian control around political systems also increased. Now, spilling from the heavens and coloring the backdrop of energy that affects the development of life on Earth is the infinite power of a new zodiacal archetype: Pisces.

The transcendental Age of Pisces elevates the collective consciousness to transform human life – expanding intuition while restoring our faith. We are facing increasing exposure to global pain and suffering to expand our empathy, compassion, connectedness, and understanding. The monumental length of Great Ages has inspired infinite debates around the exact date that initiated the visionary Age of Pisces. But, global themes, historical trends, and cultural and social transformation indicate that we are over the halfway point of this celestial chapter, laying the groundwork for the Age of Aquarius. My guess is that we are around 500 years away from the dawn of the new age.

Our current Piscean mission

The dreamy Age of Pisces guides us to coexist despite our differing truths. The dual nature of this Age echoes through the collective; we don’t need to swim through the depths of this human experience in the same direction to remain united. Slowly, we are reclaiming our spiritual power, awakening to the unique piece of the universe manifesting through us all. Religion and spirituality are shifting focus, returning to the basic principles that emphasize love and internal experience. There has never been a time when spiritual teachers, outside of institutional religion, are revered to this magnitude.

The rise of feminine power during the Age of Pisces paves the way for the liberating Age of Aquarius. Queen Cleopatra of Egypt (born in the adolescent years of the Age of Pisces, around 68 BCE), Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom (ruler of history’s largest empire), and Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom (the longest female reigning monarch in history), are the most famed sovereign examples of the increasing power and acceptance of the feminine principle.

Remnants of the earlier Ages do not dissipate once the cosmic chapter ends, and the shadow expressions of the Piscean Age still reign in the collective: deception, distrust, escapism through substances and distractions, hyper-sensitivity, dogma, depression, and the projection of ego. We must allow the collective shadow to steer us toward seeking the truth within our souls. Only then will we activate the highest expression of energy tied to this cosmic Age within ourselves, allowing it to permeate the collective consciousness.

Transcending from the Age of Pisces to the Age of Aquarius

The futuristic Age of Aquarius will be unlike anything humanity has seen – an innovative and technology-leading society we will not be around to experience ourselves. But we are building the foundations and infrastructure to welcome the arrival of this forward-thinking, intellectually driven, and artificially intelligent Great Age. The Age of Aquarius will usher in a new social dynamic, guiding humanity toward restructured global hierarchies. Yet its cool, solution-oriented, and distant air could inspire a peak in individualism and a growing shadow of collective loneliness and isolation. Physically united yet emotionally suppressed and disconnected, the Age of Aquarius will be a civil, inclusive, and humanitarian utopia. However, rebellious, judgemental, prideful, and intolerant beliefs will challenge humanity's empathetic awareness of individual experiences, shifting the soft, mutable, and trusting energy weaved during the Piscean Age.
