So what's the big deal about the Aquarian Age?
You have to wonder if some folks sat around 2,000+ years ago and spoke with great anticipation of the Piscean Age, and at the same time "regular folks" sat around and made fun of those "weird" new-age Pisceans.
Our current epoch is more than just the "next age." It is that, of course, as we've seen cycles or ages come and go, each oriented to developing qualities in humanity and the planet so that progress can be made.
But what's different about this period is that a major step is being made throughout the entire planet which, of course, will impact everything and everyone on it. This step is nothing short of a major planetary Initiation intended to propel the Earth from the cycle of involution to the evolutionary path, which will eventually result in a return to the Godhead.
In the meantime, there are many ways to look at this changeover. Those familiar with Initiation know that through the impact of higher energies, consciousness unfolds, matter is refined, and attunement to a higher impulse grows.
The Bible refers to this period as the "end of days," seen as the final judgment, the battle of Armageddon, and the return of the Christ. These views are essentially correct, viewed from a different perspective and with a new consciousness.
For context, Earth is a schoolhouse for the evolution of humanity and many species, including the Elemental Beings that provide the physical forms we occupy. As we all move along taking classes, which are all designed to re-establish (eventually) contact with the Higher Self, we progress through various grades of Initiation until we reach the point where we graduate from the school of physical existence on this plane. We then move on to other more advanced schools, as it were, for progress is seemingly endless.
So too does a planet progress, as it is a center in a great being referred to by some as a Solar Logos. As this present cycle reaches it conclusion, not only will those on the planet be taking final exams, but the entire planetary life will, too. Thus, schoolhouse Earth is graduating. Many will proceed with it, and those who don't pass will be moved to another school for more preparatory work. This is indeed the end of times, with respect to the present civilization, for the next cycle will be different, a new era, a new time.
It will be an exciting ride, for Initiations are periods of upheaval. For Spirit to prevail, the old forms and modes must be released. On a planetary scale, this will result in the breakdown of aspects of civilization.
There's still a battle to be resolved between the old--the forces of stagnation--and the new--the forces of evolution. This battle is being made manifest in the physical, and is the equivalent of the Battle of Armageddon.
A literal fight is occurring to decide which will prevail: the one of staying put or the one of moving forward. There really is no choice here but to move forward, sooner or later, but those aligned with the old order are resisting any change or loss of control.
What's needed are enlightened servers who can assist with the unfolding of Spirit's plan in the midst of turmoil. This requires knowing and commitment.
