Taking a closer look at the history of the humankind, an attentive observer may identify historical ages that may be correlated with the twelve zodiacal signs, beginning with Pisces and going back to Aries. According to my theory, the Pisces age started at the beginning of the human civilization, thousands of years ago, passing then through ages successively decreasing in duration, until nowadays when we currently live in the Gemini age.
These zodiacal ages represent general influences over the humankind, with no strict delimitation from one to another.
World history time line
The PISCES age - lasted until around the year 4500 B.C.
It is the matriarchal period of the history of the humankind after the mythical Flood, when the people had a peaceful tribal organization, ruled by women, worshipping the maternity and the Neolithic art and spirituality in Europe was blooming.
The AQUARIUS age - from 4500 B.C. until around 1500 B.C.
This is the time when the Egyptian civilization was at its top, the pyramids were built, the period of some of the most important human discoveries such as the writing, the medicine, the astrology, the alchemy, the philosophy. Hermes Mercurius Trismesgistus (around 2000 B.C.) was the most representative figure of this period. He was considered as the ââ¬Ådivine intellectââ¬Â; therefore he might be associated with the superior level of Mercury, Uranus, the ruler of Aquarius.
The CAPRICORN age - from 1500 B.C. until 200 A.D.
This is the time when the Great Masters of the humankind Zarathustra (for the Mesopotamians), Moses (for the Jews), Zamolxis (for the Thracians) received from God a set of rules of living for their people, for them to obey and respect. Moses brought to the Israelis the Decalogue containing the 10 laws (Capricorn is the 10th sign of the zodiac). This is also the time of the great empires of the antiquity (the Roman, the Macedonian, the Thracian Empires).
The SAGITTARIUS age - from 200 A.D. until 1000 A.D.
This is the era of the great migrations from Asia to Europe, the epoch of the dissemination of Christianity and the birth of the second largest world religion, the Islamism (year 632 A.D.), the foundation of the monastic community of Mount Athos, now in Greece, the
The SCORPIO age - from 1000 A.D. until 1500 A.D.
This is the ââ¬Ådark periodââ¬Â of the Middle Age, of the crusades and the inquisition, of the proliferation of the magic practices, the witchcraft and the alchemy. A representative figure of this period was the legendary Dracula, on his real name, Vlad the Impaler. He was always represented wearing an 8 point star (Scorpio is the 8th zodiacal sign) and is renowned for his favorite way to punish the convicts - by impaling them into the anus (which astrologically corresponds also to Scorpio).
The LIBRA age - from around 1500 A.D. until 1800 A.D.
This is the period of the Renaissance, of the flourishing of the arts and the culture, of the French Revolution with its slogan ââ¬Åliberty, equality, fraternityââ¬Â, of the American Revolution and the basis of the modern democracy.
The VIRGO age - from 1800 A.D. until 1948 A.D.
This is a period of accelerated development of all sciences, such as the mathematics, the physics, the chemistry, and the modern medicine, the boom of the communications and of the industry. This is also the period of the Jewsââ¬â¢ holocaust and the foundation of the Israeli state in 1948 (the Israeli national symbol is the 6 point star - Virgo is the 6th zodiacal sign).
The LEO age- from 1948 until 1989
This is the Cold War period, the ego war between the two superpowers, the USA and the Soviet Union (symbolized by the red 5 point star - Leo is the 5th zodiacal sign), the nuclear arming race, the dictatorial regimes of Stalin, Mao, Ceausescu.
The CANCER age - from 1989 until 2001
This is a period of increasing nationalist agitation (the Palestinian uprisings against the Israelis, the war in Bosnia), of an important international role of NATO (symbolized by the 4 point star - Cancer is the 4th zodiacal sign), the creation of the European Union as a big family of the member states.
The GEMINI age - from the year 2001
This period began with the plane attack to the twin towers of WTC (keywords for Gemini: plane, aerial, twin, trade center). This is the age we are now living in.
The sages of India and Tibet affirmed that the evolution of the life is not chaotic or linear, but it is cyclic, passing to a superior level after completing the previous cycle. They also said that we are living the blackest age of the humankind, called Kali Yuga, characterized by spiritual ignorance and moral degradation, after which a spiritual rebirth would occur with the return to the spiritual values.
The remaining two ages, TAURUS and ARIES, will last probably at most a few years each. The end of this cycle is expected in 2011 - 2012, when Neptune passes to its domicile, Pisces.
