"New Era of Aquarius" Notes - (5132)

Era

An era is different to an age, such as the four ages: golden age, silver age, bronze age and iron age.

An era is when the Earth for a certain period of time, comes to receive the cosmic vibrations of a particular constellation, which in turn has a determined influence over the Earth and its population. 

During an era, the cosmic vibrations received from one constellation, predominates over the vibrations received from other constellations.

Start

There are varied start dates. However the Gnostic teachings say that February 4th, 1962 between 2 and 3pm (Mexico time) is when the new Era of Aquarius began.

Mexico is the magnetic centre of the Era of Aquarius. Specifically the pyramids of the sun and the moon at Teotihuacan. The energy of the new era is being channelled by that magnetic centre of the Earth located in Mexico where the pyramids of the Sun and the Moon are.

There was a planetary conflagration in which the planets of our solar system aligned more or less in one line before the constellation of Aquarius - the water bearer.  

The start of the era of Aquarius meant the end of the era of Pisces. 

The era of Pisces was marked by Mammon which was known among the ancient Greeks as having to do with the accumulation of riches, intellectualism and sexual degeneration.

To some degree the influence of the era of Pisces is still present. However, as time moves onwards, the influence of Pisces will be less and less.

However, as long as human beings have the ego alive, greed, intellectualism and sexual degeneration will always be present. Though it won't be amplified by the influence of the 'stars'.

Characteristics

The new era of Aquarius is an era of intuition, where imagination and inspiration give rise to intuition. Which is something very far away from the intellectualism of the previous era of Pisces.

With the end of the era of Pisces, the force of Mammon began to decline and the force of Dionysus began to rise.

The wave or force of Dionysus exerts an influence to lift the reasoning level of humanity to one, which will make it easier to connect to intuition. Which in turn, will lead to a conscious alignment with esoteric truths and principles previously ignored by humanity.

There have been great changes in the reasoning of humanity since the sixties. Everything that is esoteric and spiritual has come to public light. There is no occult anymore. This has been a part of the influence of the constellation of the water bearer (Aquarius).

The constellation of Aquarius is governed by two planets, which are Uranus and Saturn. Uranus governs the sexual organs in human beings and Saturn is the planet of chaos, to which its influence is to bring about endings, to give rise to new beginnings, in other words transformations of a transcendental type.  

We know that the influence of Mammon from the era of Pisces is present because Jesus came in the era of Pisces, in fact he was the avatar of the era of Pisces and the Christian religion is still very prevalent even though it is declining. This is why the symbol of the fish was so present in those times. The fish was a symbol of Christianity at one point, and many of the vestments of the Church clergy were adorned with the symbol of the fish. Jesus was also considered to also be a fisher of men.

If we examine these symbols we can gather some interesting significance. The water bearer sign is one who is works intelligently with the waters, transferring water from one vessel to another. Which is really the essence of transmutation. The symbol of the fish is about a creature who lives submerged in the water and who does not see the water. Which signifies to experience the waters and interact with what lives in the water but not study the water, or be fully conscious of it. This difference can be clearly seen in the nature of the two eras. In the era of Pisces sexuality was experienced without study, yet in the era of Aquarius sexuality is studied.

Uranus and Saturn

In the era of Aquarius it is said that the Earth comes under the influence of two planets. Saturn and Uranus. 

Uranus is the planet that influences the sexual organs and related glands in the human body. Saturn is the planet that influences endings to bring about new beginnings. 

Uranus is a planet in which every 42 years one pole is closer to the Earth than the other. This occurrence oscillates every 42 years. Each pole of the planet Uranus exerts a different influence on humanity. 

In 1962 the negative pole was closer to the Earth indicating a stronger influence to raise up the feminine force, and when the positive pole points towards the Earth men will receive a more ascending influence. Currently it is the positive pole of Uranus that points to the Earth. 

For the most part the influence of the planet Uranus is revolutionary in regards to sexuality.

We are currently under the influence of the constellation of Aquarius and the planets of Uranus and Saturn which constitute a revolution brought about by transcendental sexuality and transcendental states of consciousness brought about the death of the pluralised "I".

Conflagration of the Solar System

It is said that on the 4th of February 1962, all the planets of our solar system Ors, lined up more or less  in a line in front of the constellation of Aquarius. Indicating the beginning of a new order.

The Aquarian age is one to initiate a series of changes of a revolutionary character. Which brings us back to the Dionysiac wave. Dionysus, Pan and Bacchus are really the same and even though they are commonly represented as being associated with human passions such as drinking and lust, they really represent the correct use of the sexual energies and the consciousness. 

What is common for humanity is the swing of the pendulum. Which rules the way humanity sees Divinity. Due to an abuse of one kind, humanity swings to the opposite side to see Divinity in its negative side. That is, seeing Dionysus being related to debauchery.

Each race is said to last the the solar systems journey through the 12 zodiacal constellations.

A race starts in Aquarius and ends in Aquarius. This is why the current times have the atmosphere that they have. An atmosphere of constant change, uncertainty, threats to peace and a great openness to information. Degeneration is rampart, yet there is an abundance of spiritual help in the way of light to help human beings rise up out of their suffering to experience different states of consciousness.

Hippie Movement

The hippie movement was an excellent example of the dionysiac wave being taken by humanity. At the heart of the hippie movement was the rebellion against the 9 to 5, five days a week routine for the sake of materialism. That is, working to own a large house, a good car, nice clothes so to be seen as successful while swimming in debt. Which was seen by those in the Hippie movement as a kind slavery that reduced the average human to a drone, with no higher knowledge and a very tired and unhappy marital home life.

So the Hippie movement sought this higher knowledge outside of the materialistic drone, in mind altering substances and sexual liberalism (or 'free love' as it was called). However, unfortunately within a relatively short time, it lead to a degeneration which could not be sustained. Due to the spread of sexually transmitted diseases and the burden of maintaining droves of people no longer wanting to, or capable of positively contributing to society due to drug addictions and disease from sexual promiscuity.

There, we see an inversion of the Dionysiac wave, where the original impetus was correct, however the means to fulfill it was wrong.   

Avatar

Each era always has an avatar. An avatar is a messenger of the Divine teachings, sent forth to humanity in each era so as to always help humanity to return to the paradisiacal state.

For the era of Pisces it was Jesus. For the Era of Aquarius it is Master Samael Aun Weor. He though, is not the only messenger of the Age of Aquarius. Many more who incarnate and teach the wisdom of this age are also messengers, however Master Samael stands as the leader of that message and messengers.

Force always plays a part in every revolution and who better than the Lord of the Ray of Force to be the avatar of the Age of Aquarius.
