Only a few days away from a transformative celestial event, the impending eclipse on April 8th, 2024 signifies not only a new chapter but we are turning the page in a whole new book!
Are we witnessing the dawning of the “New Age” of Aquarius and the resurgence of the Divine Feminine on the cosmic stage?
Like many of us, I find myself pondering its profound spiritual implications.
Amidst the buzz surrounding this spectacle, it’s hard not to reflect on its deeper spiritual significance. Many have suspected this to be the time of the Age of Aquarius, an astrological era marked by awakening and spiritual enlightenment.
Age of Aquarius: What does this mean?
The Age of Aquarius is an astrological concept. It’s part of a cycle called precession, where Earth’s movement causes changes in the identity of the Pole Star. This cycle lasts about 25,800 years, with 12 zodiac constellations. Every 2,150 years or so, the sun’s position during the vernal equinox shifts to a new zodiac constellation, marking the start of a new age. It begins when the vernal equinox shifts from Pisces to Aquarius. While the exact date remains elusive, astrologers continue to predict its official emergence.
The Aquarius Age is characterized by heightened global connectivity, technological advancements, information, and innovation. Its influence extends beyond celestial transitions, but also encompasses expanded consciousness, environmental stewardship, and a collective awakening to mindfulness.
There’s been significant chatter surrounding the spiritual significance of this period.
Expressions like “awakening” have gained traction, reflecting a collective sense of heightened awareness. Meanwhile, celestial events such as the upcoming eclipse serve as cosmic affirmations of these shifts.
But what are we awakening from?
For me, it aligns with my teachings and long-held beliefs: that distorted images and suppressed histories of women, indigenous, and ancient peoples philosophy and spirituality have disconnected us from our primordial essence. It is validation that the original awareness of the goddess is returning to its rightful place. Divine feminine infuses every aspect of existence. Afterall, we all came from the nourishing waters of our mothers’ womb. Though it’s spiritual significance was hidden for so long, it is forever informing the evolution of our lives, societal structures, and personal identities.
What does this truly signify for you, and how will we fare in the face of these predicted transformative energies?
For some, this transition may be unsettling, evoking fear and uncertainty, while for others, it heralds a time of abundance and growth. The key lies in alignment — with your inner divinity god/goddess, your source energy. This aspect of you remains steadfast, free from the limited viewpoint of fear and worry.
Alignment is a deeply personal journey, rooted in honoring your inner goddess, regardless of who you are. As the universe orchestrates this cosmic performance, it reaffirms the profound influence of goddess energy permeating every aspect of our existence. It’s a call to action, urging us to seek out the feminine forces shaping our lives, our structures, and our very essence.
Prepare to navigate a profound shift in our physical reality, where the familiar gives way to the new.
Embracing the Dance of Light and Darkness
As we witness the moon crossing the sun, casting a magnificent ring of fire, it symbolizes the transition from darkness to light, a metaphor for embracing knowledge and wisdom on our journey to freedom. In this cosmic dance, the moon as feminine energy, is exchanging equal position with the masculine sun, signifying harmony and unity with the divine.
We’re presented with a profound opportunity.
It’s a chance to embrace the interplay of light and dark, viewing it as a conscious choice to seek wisdom and liberation from within. Symbolically, the moon embodies feminine energy, while the sun represents masculinity, together epitomizing wholeness and unity with the divine. This urges us to confront our internal polarities and disharmony. It is also a time to discard outdated paradigms that have long stifled feminine empowerment.
What does this have to do with the Age of Aquarius?
Aquarius, which means “water bearer” in latin, serves as a poignant reminder of the goddess’s undeniable influence. Though it is an air sign, its symbolism of water represents the nurturing essence of the divine feminine, essential for sustaining life and fostering growth. Ultimately, it reminds us that the nurturing essence of the womb (vessel) births all creation.
Aquarius’ astrological symbol is of the pouring vessel, and the divine bestowing essential sustenance upon the Earth. It symbolizes the womb and heralds the emergence of the sacred feminine’s profound influence upon our world, a force sometimes challenging to resist. To wield influence is to navigate the currents of change, remaining calm in fluidity. In flow.
Flow, in all its fluid grace, dictates existence, for change is the very essence of life, testing the steadfastness of our core convictions.
Water, the primal essence revered since ancient times, embodies feminine energy in its purest form. Like the rhythmic tides swayed by lunar cycles, it nurtures all life with its gentle touch. Every facet of existence relies on its nourishment, echoing the eternal wisdom of sea goddesses like Mami Wata and Yemoja, who embody the maternal essence of creation. Yet, in its softness lies a power capable of shaping landscapes and sculpting destinies, a reminder of nature’s indomitable force.
Just as water nourishes all living beings, so too does the feminine energy nurture our souls. Yet, like the ebb and flow of the tides, it possesses the power to shape and transform the world around us.
In the midst of this cosmic revelation, we are reminded that true change begins within. By embracing our divine selves and honoring the goddess within, we align with the currents of transformation, embodying the change we wish to see in the world.
