Comment by Terry MacKinnell — March 16, 6: I have a request to ask of you. Most ancient sites have visiual ports that divided the sky into equal portions relative to the many observed cycle. On your map could you identify the stars that cross the dividing lines of each zodiac-constellations.

Dividing each zodiac equally will provide a more accurate motion in time,and it will help me connect some dots in mythology. Hope you decide to help in this research. Comment by Tyson — July 26, 7: Unfortunately i cannot help with the heliacal astronomy that you want — I mainly work with time, not celestial coordinates. Some astronomy programs display the heliacal rising and setting phenomena graphically.
The constellation of Ophucius is not and never has been and never will be the 13th zodiacal sign — only non-astrolgers will claim otherwise from ignorance of astrological lore. It is a good academic book on ancient mythologies related to precession of the equinoxes. Ultimtaley i would like to produce a video showing the heliacal astronomy graphically — but everything costs money, Terry http: Comment by Terry MacKinnell — July 27, 1: Comment by Stuart Robbins — July 27, It is really amazing how people who do not know, understand or study astrology consider themselves experts on the subject.
Western astrologers do not use a zodiac based on the zodiacal constellations — they use a zodiac with a fiducial point zero degrees Aries based on the vernal point at the Northern Hemisphere Spring Equinox. Vedic astrologers in India use a sideral zodiac superimposed upon the zodiacal constellations as basically developed by the Ancient Greek astronomer-astrologers over 2, years ago.
These two zodiacs only align about once every 26, years.
MacKinnell, Terry
All competent astrologers are aware of these two zodiacs and the fact that they are out of phase, and getting further out of phase every year. Vedic astrologers do not refer to the uneven and unequal zodiacal constellations, they use the sideral zodiac. Both zodiacs maintain astrological integrity but provide very different perspectives and archetypal relationships. If modern astronomers have the constellation of Ophucius crossing the ecliptic this does not make it a zodiacal constellation.

Furthermore, ancient astronomers did not have borders to their constellations, which is a modern invention — they ancients only used stick figures. Comment by Terry MacKinnell — July 27, 7: Comment by harenews — November 1, 3: Hi, thank you so much for that, I was just thinking, would a shift in the Earth position or any other planet in space, change the date of the age of Aqarious in any way?
Comment by maggie — October 12, 4: Comment by Stuart Robbins — October 12, I have read in other blogs that the way to determine which Great Age we are in, is to see when the vernal equinox, to see when the sun enters the Aquarius constellation. Comment by calla — April 23, 3: Your first port of call should be the Astrological Ages topic at Wiki, as most of the issues you are querying is explained there.
If you have any additional queries, i can probably answer them. Comment by Terry MacKinnell — August 19, 4: RSS feed for comments on this post. You are commenting using your WordPress. You are commenting using your Twitter account. You are commenting using your Facebook account.

Occasionally when I express to someone that the Age of Aquarius arrived within a few years of CE, the reaction is usually one of amazement and sometimes hostility.
What is the Age of Aquarius and what is its meaning? What came before it? How long does it last? When exactly does the Age of Aquarius start and how long is its dawn? Is there any connection between the ages and the common astrological sunsigns?

For example, will someone born with their Sun in Aquarius handle the new Aquarian age better than people without this Aquarian resonance? Despite the acceptance of the Age of Aquarius into our cultural milieu, very little is known about it by the general public. It is commonly expressed that the Age of Aquarius will usher in a new era of peace and harmony. This statement assumes that the previous age which the Aquarian age replaces was more negative or somehow lower in standard. The age before the Aquarian age is the Pisces age.
Is the zodiacal sign Pisces bad and Aquarius good? Many astrologers believe it is absolutely ridiculous to claim that the Aquarian age arrived in a specific year such as CE. Because ages are so large at around years each, how can they have an exact start in an actual year? Furthermore, astrology, since the time of the ancient Greeks, has followed a highly exact and mathematical approach. Based on this mathematical approach to astrology, any age should have an exact starting date.
So while my precision may seem untenable, once the date calibration technique is revealed it becomes obvious. However, I do agree that it is impossible to delineate the exact year of the arrival of a multi-thousand years age based solely upon examining historical correlations to the ages. Historians are good at identifying the approximate century of the start of significant historical periods. Arriving at the correct century is one thing, getting the exact year is another! However, there is absolutely no theoretical reason against doing so.
Age of Aquarius
The sign change of the Sun, Moon, or planet can be determined with precision so why cannot an age be determined to a specific year? Ultimately, an age should be determined to even an exact month or perhaps even an exact day and hour! My approach to understanding the astrological ages involved recognizing the input from historians—who are naturally the experts in this field. A large number of historians agree that the fifteenth century CE marked a significant historical shift in the world—coinciding with the Age of Aquarius arriving in the fifteenth century.
A whole genre of recent historical research has been focusing upon the last years. Its repetitive theme points to the fact that something momentous occurred around years ago i. The opening statement by the cultural historian, Prof. Tarnas further asserts that, when this modern self appeared, it stood out due to its astonishing impact. Tarnas claims the convulsions of the Renaissance, the Reformation, and the Scientific Revolution gave birth to the modern world and the modern mind.
The Copernican view of the universe removed humanity from the focal point of the cosmos. This is a mighty change.
Toynbee states this change was sudden and brought immediate changes of fortunes to many people, some for the better and many for the worse—especially the indigenous inhabitants of the Americas and western Africa. He further states that, in the years since CE, Western civilization made its greatest spiritual and mental leap forward since the fall of ancient Rome. The Collins Atlas of World History places the fifteenth century as one of those turning points in history, emphasizing that this century laid the groundwork of modern capitalism and began the first capitalist age.
Geoffrey Blainey states that the Middle Ages spanned the period from to CE, and that the late s marked the time for the mental awakening of Europe, hastened by the invention of the printing press in the mids. Blainey claims that the last part of the s was the most striking convergence of key events experienced in the world to that time, with its focus upon western Europe. These influential events included printing, the Reformation, the Renaissance, heralding a new approach to painting, and sculpture and architecture.
