Another 60s rave.

I was born in the 60's and as I hit my teens in the 70's I had the feeling like "you should of been here yesterday". I had missed out on some monumental event. The Skyhooks sang a song lamenting, "Whatever happened to the revolution?". And I was wanting to be a part of a revolution, desperatly! I wanted to change the world(now) but the world had moved on and wasnt interested anymore.
Uranus conjunct Pluto that my generation including Obama was born under is revolutionary energy. But timing is everything. Many of us have been waiting a long time for the party to return and its at our doorsteps now. Except we are not teenagers but (sort of) mature, middle aged people right at the heart of our cultures. Its like the Cosmos has placed all these sleepers right through out the world in key positions and we are waking up!!! The Cosmic alarm clock is going off. Can you hear it?
I read an article of a women leading a lightning fast protest of other women in Zimbabwe recently. Incredibly gutsy, hopeful and creative response to oppression. She's the same age as me. No coincidence with the age and the gender. Those of us born from 61 - 67 especially are waking up. Men and especially enpowered women. We are about to see women come to the fore in leadership roles all over the world.
Sadly some of us havent survived the ride so far. David Foster Wallace was the latest to suicide, born in 62. Any Psych student wanting to research and correlate suicide rates and mental illness for that age group would find a spike I bet. Map that onto astrological charts and I bet there is some fascinating connecttions.
I have begun going to a predominatly African church and the word coming from the head pastor in Trinidad is that this is a year of restoration of god doing "a new thing". They are not reading Astrological charts that point to Jupiter Neptune conjunction, they dont have too as its in the air that we breath. Can you feel it yet? You will...Everything breaths together!!
As Neptune rules fashion, that irrational feeling level thing that just seems to happen, keep an eye out for the Sixties returning in all sorts of ways. Its been starting to pick up speed over the past year...
"the beards have all grown longer overnight : The Who.
Hair, clothes, music, art , politics. Its more then just a whim its a returning t o the similar archetypal dynamics in a new context.The 60's was just the trial run. The clearing of the stage, now we do revolution differently.
A Creative Religious Explosion that begins in Australia and in Brisbane and radiates out around the world is my choice. Crazy, foolish, idiotic, impossible. Maybe. New things dont begin in Australia they begin in the U.S dont they and then we follow them. True...mostly. And Brisbane of all places?? Bris Vegas is a redneck backwater compared to Melbourne and Sydney where all the action is. True..maybe. Nothing new begins in Brisbane...or does it? Brisbanites no doubt have a long list. Lets wait and see what comes next.
