In the midst of wars and economic crises, five planets aligned in Aquarius on February 17th replicating the famous lyrics of the musical Hair, “The Dawn of the Age of Aquarius”… when “Jupiter aligns with Mars” then “the peace will come.” guide the planets, and love will rule the stars. So says the song, but apparently not the story.
Yet the United States has just discarded decades of prejudice to dress up a black president. That is more important than our current economic problems, because prejudice makes cooperation between people impossible. If more people were working towards the same goals, we would be building the equivalent of pyramids. As prejudices disappear, we will be free to solve problems and creatively interact with each other. If you believe in human ingenuity, that will make all the difference. What if it is the case, as it has been in history, that one person makes a very big difference? What if Obama’s strength is his unusual mind and his ability to come up with winning ideas and strategies? What if the disappearance of prejudice not only opens the door to solutions that Barack Obama might come up with, but other sentient beings come up who don’t look like any of us!
On the micro scale, the messages from heaven suggest a three-part scenario that one is likely to go through on their way to “peace and love,” and it’s not that no one knows when the Aquarian age actually begins, or even if it really started. , but this seems to be the direction of evolution witnessed by our individual desire for inner peace and to experience love.
You may have noticed that with this last Mercury retrograde from January to February, people and situations from the past came up to be dealt with, deep insights and ideas came into your mind… you may have remembered past lives… you may have I tried things and associations in this period that didn’t work, and all this was to reveal what is really important to you now.
Then, clearer about who you are as an individual, clearer about your values and priorities—triggered by the eclipses of early 2009 but taking as long as it takes—comes the next phase: removing what isn’t important or desirable now. This creates tremendous change, just as the world is going through tremendous change by removing the banking system as we know it, removing borders, removing fossil fuels and unfair relationships with people, removing prejudice.
The next phase for those who pursue the inside and who choose to change (and the Spirit of Change, it seems, will address each person directly on the details) will be on a mass level, people develop a stronger character, a greater capacity for love, and are warmer and more generous. Even the colors develop a new strength and warmth.
We begin to turn to each other with the desire to connect, rebuilding ties or creating new ones. The message from heaven is: “We are all in a great adventure and we must forgive and forget the past. Believe in yourself and in your dreams for the future.”
