A Better World

As an Aquarius born at the end of the 1960s, I have spent my entire life looking forward to the arrival of the Age of Aquarius. It feels like it has been ‘dawning’ for a terribly long time, and surely it must be on the verge of bursting forth from the horizon. I mean… SHEESH!

When I was first introduced to astrology in the early 90s, a friend explained the transition from one age to another has a shadow period (the way that Mercury Retrograde can be felt 14 days before and after its seeming back-track in the night sky). I guess if an age can last two thousand years, the shadow might be excruciatingly drawn out. In my lifetime, we certainly have seen some darkness, but also… quite a bit of light.

Many of us could see the shadow moving in through the degradation of the GOP, as their rhetoric villanized those who struggle in the world through the patriarchal oppression of systemic racism and systemic misogyny. It is difficult to make sense of such hateful actions (far too many to name), but one can come to understand that the schoolyard bully picks on others so that no one will dare pick on them. They are basically afraid of everything and devoid of self-love.

One theory we’ve discussed is that those who have benefited most from the age of Pisces (the age of ‘ME’) marked by money, power, and patriarchal control are like rats in a toilet bowl scratching to remain on the surface before they get flushed by the age of Aquarius (the age of ‘WE’) which heralds increased harmony and deepened spirituality.

I think we really felt that proverbial dawning of goodness in recent years when we got to cast presidential ballots within the last two decades for both a black man and then a woman. I remember the shadow that descended when we heard the news from the UK about Brexit and realized that our woman would not win. It was devastating. We sobbed through the concession speech, as we could already see the future that would come to pass, women’s rights stolen along with the respectability of the judicial court systems. I have to admit it was worse than some of us predicted.

But now, there is new light reaching our eyes, with the rejection of tyranny in England and France. The good news of accomplishment from our current administration is astounding considering how close to the brink we were at the end of 2020. We’ve got the right leaders to bring us home to even greater success in the coming years as the work they’ve already done comes to light.

In just three and a half months, our country goes to the polls again to choose our leaders for the next presidential cycle. It seems like an easy choice, right? I mean, one guy is a notorious felon who cannot speak the truth and could not be hired as a server in a restaurant, while the other is actively doing his job of leading our country and working with world leaders to keep us safe and to seek safety for others while improving the lives of all citizens, every single day.

And yet, there are disappointingly vocal people in our party who are asking the very successful guy to step down, with no one lined up to take his place, nor with access to the funding to make it possible. They seem to have forgotten that earlier this year, 87% of Democrats who voted in the primaries chose the Biden/Harris ticket. We all knew the age of our incumbent leaders when we chose them. We all knew that they were leading our country in the right direction and that there was no other candidate more capable who came forward.

Furthermore, it seems the whole point of having a Vice President is to ensure consistent leadership should something happen to the President. We could choose a fifty-year-old presidential candidate tomorrow, and if they were to win (which is no guarantee according to the “Keys to the Whitehouse”), they could die of an aneurysm ten days after inauguration; and then who would lead? Oh, yeah… the Vice President!

So what I would like people to reflect on, who may be leaning toward asking a successful leader to step down when we are far too close to the edge of oblivion and Project 2025 to consider their own implicit biases. In my eyes, if our guy does not make it through another four-year term, we already have an amazing leader to fill his shoes, only she will do it in stilettos.

Professor Allan Lichtman has successfully predicted every Presidential election since 1982. Including the one none of us saw coming and the one that should have been, but was broken by the Supreme Court. Here is a podcast discussing the Thirteen Keys to the Whitehouse, and how our guy has already won. He won’t officially predict until after the DNC, but if we were to vote today – Agenda 47 would be put to rest for good. He says that the only Plan B possible would be for Kamala Harris to run as President, and yet somehow, in a time when women have lost bodily autonomy, it is hard to imagine systemic misogyny and internalized patriarchy will suddenly be resolved in our country.

I started following a few intuitive readers from all over the world several years ago when I was seeking messages of hope for our future. (It’s interesting to learn how invested in our country’s wellness citizens of other countries are.) It may seem ‘woowoo’ to many, but I’ll tell you that they were right about most things even when they seemed unlikely or impossible. As a skeptical believer, I decided I could believe in good news that soothed my soul, and allow it to manifest with gratitude. They maintain that love wins and we will be celebrating with great relief in the new year. One of my favorite messages from the future is this: “By doing this (choosing 45 and his running mate, creating a platform from Project 2025, stacking the courts with unethical judges, etc.) the GOP brought about a better world in spite of themselves.”

My glass remains half full, dear ones. Aquarius may be a slow-to-warmer, but she is certainly inching her way into our joyful new beginning. I hope you’ll consider joining our energetic experiment to secure a better world, as found in my previous post.

Now, all we have to do is VOTE BLUE IN EVERY CATEGORY and
“LET THE SUNSHINE IN!”
