The mysterious rings of astrology: What is the impact of each constellation on human history?
Since ancient times, the development of human society has been accompanied by the observation and thinking of astronomical phenomena, and the influence of astrology cannot be ignored. The "zodiac age" represented by each constellation is considered to be deeply connected to some extent with the changes in human culture, history and even politics.
"An astrological age is a period of time during which social, cultural and historical progress are often directly related to the zodiac sign associated with it."
According to astrology theory, the twelve constellations correspond to important stages in human history, and these changes play out in a cycle. This cycle is called the "Great Year" and its length is 25,772 years. Although astrologers disagree on when exactly these zodiac signs begin and end, their influence continues to spark widespread discussion.
Astrological Age Perspectives
There are three main views on the age of astrology. First were archaeoastronomists, who did not entirely believe in the science of astrology but studied cultural traditions that relied on it. Next are modern astrologers who have been trying to relate world history to astrological chronology since the late 19th century. Finally, the "Age of Aquarius" in popular culture emphasizes the social changes of the 1960s, a concept that attracted widespread attention especially in the 1979 film "Hair."
"The impact of astrological dating on world history is often based on various selections of evidence and changing dates of events."
Controversial areas
The exact details of astrological dating are largely disputed. The 20th-century British astrologer Charles Carter said: "There is no branch of astrology more absurd than the doctrine of precession of the equinoxes." The existence of these controversies makes one wonder whether everyone can accept the role of astrology in history. role in?
Consensus and controversy
Although there are many controversies, there are two almost unanimous views: one is that astrological chronology is theoretically linked to the precession of the earth's rotation axis; second, due to the precession of the vernal equinox, the passage of time between the constellations The process is reversed. Over time, this concept has gradually gained widespread recognition, and it has also promoted the re-evaluation and thinking of astrological years.
Age Changes and Transition Periods
Astrologers often view the process of entering a new zodiac age as a gradual transition. Many scholars emphasize that a certain zodiac age does not begin on a specific day or year, but continues to blend with the influence of the previous age, thereby creating a richer historical context. This interweaving influence between the zodiac signs makes people think about whether the concept of "time tunnel" exists in our daily life?
Changes in understanding of era
Many astrologers define each age as exactly 2000 years, and this view is somewhat inconsistent with the predetermined zodiac transitions. The existence of this "equal time" perspective makes people rethink past divisions. Is this division a calm scientific deduction or an emotionally charged cultural imagination?
The intersection of astrology and human history
Many astronomical discoveries in history were due to the gradual progress of observation. For example, the astronomer Hipparchus in the 2nd century BC first proposed the precession of the vernal equinox, which laid the foundation for the subsequent astrological era. These discoveries not only changed human worldview, but also provided a prosperous development ground for astrology. Does this mean that the boundary between science and superstition itself is blurring over time?
Contemporary Astrological Practice
In modern times, although academic debates about astrology continue, society's interest in its applications remains strong. Many believe that the understanding of astrology goes beyond interpreting individual horoscopes and can be an important tool in understanding global historical events. This makes people think, should contemporary astrology intersect with science more deeply in order for it to truly explain the changes in human destiny?
Over time, astrology has taken on different meanings in different historical contexts. Should we re-examine this ancient knowledge to discover its deeper meanings that can inspire us to think?
