Age of
Aquarius
The supposed
two-thousand-year period of enlightenment, peace and love heralded by the entry of the sun
into the zodiacal sign of Aquarius.
Astrologers
and diverse occult traditions
disagree on the date of this period's beginning — they range from 1904 to 2680.
The term was popular during the 1960s,
a decade marked by social and political upheaval and increased interest in spiritual
exploration and alternative lifestyles.
According to the
Christian Esoteric, Essenian and
later Rosicrucian traditions, the nearness and entrance into the Age of
Aquarius — taking place after the Age of Pisces, or the age ruled by the
"Sword" — will produce to the majority of humanity the discovery,
real living and actual knowledge of the inner and profound Christian
teachings.
Several native American traditions also refer
to the beginning of a remarkable age of enlightenment, announced by the coming of
a great spiritual teacher who will unite the material and spiritual worlds,
bringing about a period of universal tranquility and brotherhood.

As you may have noticed, Occultopedia is being updated.
Navigation areas are completed, but the word definition pages are not. The
layout in these pages might not look as good as they should. Updating them
may take a while, so please, be patient and understanding. I am only one
person working on this site in my spare time.
As soon as these updates are concluded I will begin setting up the
Forums, so we can all discuss the
occult, paranormal and extraordinary, and whatever else we please.
Registration will be required.
Occultopedia's images and art are also undergoing an adjustment to
Flash based graphics. This process may take some time as well, so again, be
patient and understanding.

Occultopedia is the genuine article, the
original and the best internet index of the extraordinary and uncanny,
shamelessly copied by many, but never equaled. Online since the
early 90s — at first in a free web space provider, and in 1997 finally
with its own domain name and hosting — Occultopedia still is the
principal online resource for those looking for the unexplained, the
curious and the unusual. |

Occultopedia may appear to be a for profit site, but my site is
not really a commercial one. All of the commercial links are from affiliate
programs, and the little revenue I get from these is to pay for hosting,
bandwidth — that can be quite costly if you have a lot of traffic, graphics and
pages — and any other expenses related to Occultopedia's upkeep and maintenance.
