The Pisces age is the period of time in history that lasted from roughly 1,982 to 2,020. It is considered part of the larger astrological age cycle that moves in 2,160 year increments. Therefore, the Pisces age can be said to have ended in 2020.
As the end of the Pisces age coincided with the dawn of the new millennium, some have considered the Pisces Age not so much ending as transitioning into the Age of Aquarius.
When did we move from the Age of Pisces to Aquarius?
The Age of Aquarius began during the early Sixties and is said to bring a new era of enlightenment, truth and humanitarianism. This age starts when the sun moves through the constellation of Aquarius, which is the eleventh constellation of the 12 that form the astrological zodiac.
The exact dates when the sun moves through this constellation differs each year, but typically this occurs between January 20th and February 18th. This means that the transition from the Age of Pisces to the Age of Aquarius began in the early 1960s, leading to a period of massive cultural and spiritual awakening as we align with a different cosmic vibration, taking humanity on a new journey.
What year is the Age of Pisces?
The Age of Pisces is currently underway and is thought to have begun in the early 1st century CE and is believed to be ongoing until the mid – late 21st century, although the exact dates of its commencement and conclusion are debated and contested among scholars.
The historical period spanning the start of the Age of Pisces is thought to have kicked off around the time of the death of Jesus Christ. Several civilizations believed that history was divided into Ages, corresponding to the seven classical planets known to them in their day.
This is why we refer to a historical period in terms of the zodiac sign associated with it—in this case, the Age of Pisces.
What is the current astrological age?
The current astrological age is the Age of Aquarius, which began around 2000 CE. The astrological ages are determined by the procession of the equinoxes, a slow wobble of the Earth’s axis which causes the Vernal Equinox to move backward through the twelve signs of the zodiac.
It takes roughly 2,100 years for the equinox to move through each astrological age, so until around 4000 CE, we will still be in the Age of Aquarius.
The astrological ages are marked by growth and transformation, and the Energy of Aquarius is associated with inspiration, originality, and revolution. The Age of Aquarius is a time of major changes, where old conventions are challenged and new ideas are advanced.
This is a time of great technological advancement, where we can take advantage of the ever-growing resources at our fingertips to create new solutions and solve existing problems. Expect to see a greater focus on collective work, technology, and global consciousness in the years to come.
How many years have we been in the Age of Pisces?
We have been in the Age of Pisces for about two thousand years, starting in approximately 400 BCE. This particular astrological age began with the transition of the Sun from Aries, the Ram, to Pisces, the Fish.
The process of moving from one zodiac sign to the next typically takes roughly two thousand years – give or take a few hundred – meaning that the Age of Pisces will be coming to a close in the near future.
How long does the Aquarius Age last?
The Aquarius Age, which is thought to represent a shift in consciousness, is believed to have begun in the late 1800s and is said to last about 2000 years. This timeframe is based off of the cosmological Zodiac cycle, which occurs every 2,155 years on average, and the associated astrological Age is determined from the vernal equinox, or the point in the year when the Sun appears to cross the celestial equator going north.
While the start of the Aquarius Age is debated, some scholars suggest the Age began at the end of the 20th Century in 1999 CE, when a shift in consciousness seemed to be occurring on a global scale. It is expected to continue until around 3993 CE, when the Age of Pisces begins.
