The Dawning of the Age of Aquarius?

Platapus · 02-28-25, 07:43 AM

When the moon is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter aligns with Mars....

Well 28 Feb 2025, seven planets will be aligned.

Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus will line up. But only the first five will be able to be seen by the unaided human eye.

Mercury will be in the constellation Aquarius, near the sun and just above the western horizon.

Venus will appear as the brightest planet in the sky, near the Pisces constellation.

Mars will appear reddish and high in the sky, near the Gemini constellation.

Jupiter will be a bit lower in the sky, near Taurus.

Saturn will also be near the sun and low in the horizon

Uranus will appear in the Aries constellation.

Neptune will be in Pisces.

For those keeping score, planetary line ups of four planets happens every few years.

In October 2028, five planets will be visible at once before sunrise.

In Feb 2034 another five-planet alignment will occur.

Missed this seven planet line up? The next one will be in 2040.

Have all eight planets lined up? No, and it is extremely unlikely that all eight planets (sorry Pluto, you ain't cool no more) lining up from an external perspective.

Pretty cool stuff.

I would love to get out my Telescope to see that but it's a bit frigid here.

I remember the Age of Aquarius. Vaguely and fondly.

I am an Aquarius - and I must tell you, give up all hope because it is all mine!

I'm a Pisces and I swim in the Aquarius

But what about the moon, is it in the 7th house?

I'm a Taurus, so it is all bull to me.

We were lucky enough to have clear skies, although I was stranded at the mother-in-law's place while my telescope was up in the attic at home. But I did have my binoculars. Venus & Mars good and bright to the naked eye - to which the others were just tiny pin pricks of light. However, through my binoculars these others were just slightly larger tiny pin pricks of light
