A Symptom of the Age of Aquarius: The Current State of US Politics & Culture.

Bipartisanship is dead. Freedom of speech is dead. Liberals are crazy. Conservatives are racist. SJWs. Tea Party Movement. Black Lives Matter. Standing Rock. Abortion. Trump as President. #notmypresident. Feminism. Respectability Politics. Police Brutality. Conspiracy Theories. Oppression Olympics. White Privilege. Tomi Lahren. LGBTQ-Trans Rights!! Occupy Wall Street. Revolution. Resistance. Blah Blah Blah.
A lot of wild things have been brewing in American Politics and Culture for years. I’m confused by all of this. Even so, the more I think about it the more it seems to be a Symptom of the Age of Aquarius. As some of you know we are in the Age of Aquarius now. I don’t know if it’s full fledge but I honestly think that perhaps the age of Aquarius started in the 1960s. The dates of the Age of Aquarius is very debatable and not even sure. 

Regardless we are at least at the beginning of the Age of Aquarius and with that adjustments need to be made. A lot of us like to think that during the Age of Aquarius everyone is going to be on some hippy dippy We are the World, One Love, give peace a chance type shit. But that’s not necessarily true or the reality (as of now anyway). We are in transition. 
Aquarius is a fixed sign and hence stubborn and inflexible. As open-minded and tolerant Aquarius is, it is set in its beliefs and convictions. Which is what I think is playing out now in the world. Certain populations and groups of people are tapped into the collective consciousness and are mad as hell. Remember Pluto in Scorpio generation are of age and is taking control now, so there’s this intense concentration of energy that is acting out. The world’s fucked up, I am fucked up, you are fucked up, we need to change everything now mentality. 
The internal fixed energy in a generation of souls, reinforced by Age of Aquarius energy battling all the other energies (aka the older Pluto generations, Pluto in Cancer, Leo, Virgo, and Libra) and also fighting the remnants of the Age of Pisces (organized religion, believing what we were/are told, relying on the fragile, vulnerability of faith, etc.) 

So there’s a sense of urgency, a sense of purpose, and also a sense of fixidity/dogmatic stubbornness that is very Aquarian. Of course it’s more nuanced than this. Factor in transpersonal planetary transits including Saturn in Scorpio, Saturn in Sagittarius (2014-2017), Pluto in Capricorn (2008-2025) and Neptune in Pisces (2011-2018). Energy wise it’s this big cluster fuck of WTF.

I’m right, you’re wrong shut up. No one wants to talk, or listen. All this is self-interest and selfishness (which isn’t bad at all). BUT then factor in the crisis of faith that Saturn in Sagittarius squaring Neptune in Pisces and it becomes this delusional slush of insanity. That makes of us want to hold on to something (like beliefs, values) for dear life before we fear melting into a pile of existential bile. 

Imma stop before this gets to ramble-ly . I hope you get what I am saying. #WOKEAF
