The Aquarian Age

About this book

An age may have an astrological identity, and that identity may transform the course of civilisation. The Aquarian Age develops this belief into a theory of historical change and spiritual renewal.

The author interprets religious movements and human progress through a succession of zodiacal eras. These correlations are speculative, and the astronomical boundaries of an 'Age of Aquarius' have no single accepted definition. The book documents the hope invested in a coming period of greater understanding, as well as the extraordinary confidence with which cosmic cycles were used to explain social change.
