When did the Age of Aquarius really begin?

I've heard various years from 1960 to 2000, and some say it's still in the future. I think we are in it already, don't you?

When the moon
is in the second house
And Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will rule the heavens
And love will rule the stars...

@ozgirl512 Yeah, that's an old joke. Lol :)

Given how slow precession actually is, there's no way you could pin down a single year, or even a single decade, in which it begins, at least not without making a totally arbitrary decision just for the sake of having a date to throw out. "Sometime around right now, plus or minus a century or so" is about the best you're going to get.

@Keraunos Plus or minus a century or so? Wow, that is accurate. Lol :)

@BijouPleasurette I mean, that two-century range is actually being pretty generous. A lot of people would place its onset in the first half of the 1800s, while I've seen some folks place it as far out as 2500. People who appraise it in more "spiritual" terms than directly astronomical ones have set its beginning everywhere from the 1400s to the 3500s.

@Keraunos Wow, that's as long as the age itself.

@NankerPhelge Oh, I see. Was there a date when everything was in Sagittarius? Was there ever an Age of Sagittarius, or is that still in the future?
NankerPhelge · 61-69, M
@BijouPleasurette I don't know of a date when everything was in Sagittarius. The Age of Sagittarius is far into the future, it'll begin some time around the year 6000.

@NankerPhelge Oh well, we'll never know what it's like, will we? Lol :)
It hasn't yet.
BijouPleasurette · 36-40, F
@PhoenixPhail I think it has.
@BijouPleasurette No, we're still in the dawning of the age of Aquarius. I think it starts around 2050ad.

@PhoenixPhail That year reminds me of another old song. A Beatles one. "When I'm 64". Lol :)
