An astrological age is the time taken for the vernal equinox to move through one constellation of the zodiac. Astrological ages occur because of a phenomenon known as the precession of the equinoxes. One complete period of this precession is called a Great Year and is about 26,000 years. Astrological age - Overview.

Chinese astrologers refer to the Moon's Nodes as the Dragon's Head and Tail and give it tremendous attention as to the placement in the natal chart.

This article give you the knowledge to understand the Dragon in your personal horoscope.

Astrology's Archaic Truths

One of the challenges for astrologers is to find a meaningful place for astrology in our modern world. In this so-called scientific society of ours, astrology often looks like a rube, an ignorant fool left over from some bygone era. Astrology may seem quaint as it attempts to describe reality through a world view that has been surpassed by the scientific discoveries of the past 500 years. Our Ptolemaic earth-centered view of the universe is seen as naive at its best and downright charlatanism at its worst. But, once we step back from the dogmas of modern science we can rediscover astrology's truths, truths which are essential to the healing of our shattered world.

The Age of Aquarius (starting around the 27th century) is one of the twelve astrological ages. According to different astrologers' calculations, probable approximated dates for entering the Age of Aquarius may be A.D. 2638 (Elsa M. Glover), A.D. 2654 (Max Heindel) or A.D. 2680 (Shepherd Simpson); yet all of them quite close to each other, taken into consideration that they are calculations about an event taking place six centuries from now. In 1929, the International Astronomical Union defined the edges of the 88 official constellations. The edge established between Pisces and Aquarius locates t ...

The Age of Pisces is one of the twelve astrological ages. These are periods of time during which the vernal equinox point extends from Earth into a particular constellation, in this case the constellation of Pisces. The Age of Pisces is the current age, and will remain so until approximately 2600 AD. At that time, the vernal equinox point will no longer be facing Pisces, but Aquarius, thus beginning the Age of Aquarius. The Age of Pisces began around 100 BC and follows the Age of Aries. Vedic Cosmologist Patrizia Norelli-Bachelet writes in "The Gnostic Circle (1972)" that the Age of Pisces began in 234 BCE ...
