The Chart of Starry Aquarious
The Mythology and Associations: The ruler of Aquarius is
Uranus. Its symbol represents water, a universal image which
dates back into prehistory. This will also be recognized in the
egyptian hieroglyph representing the same. The association in
Aquarius is that of the servant of humanity pouring out the
water of knowledge to quench the thirst of the world. These
symbolic waves of water, share the dual expression of
vibrational waves of electricity or parallel lines of force.
To fully appreciate the mythological significance of Aquarius, it
is necessary to bear in mind the importance of water to our
ancestors. The very existence of the ancients depended upon the
supply of life sustaining moisture. During the month of
Aquarius, the rains were on the land, literally poured from the
heavens. In many regions of the ancient world, this was seen as
the beginning of the new year, a time of new life cycles. It is not
hard to understand why some images depict the figure of
Aquarius as a water bearing woman.
The region of the night sky in which Aquarius resides is
populated by water signs. In Babylonia, this region of the zodiac
was known as the Sea. Here we also find, Capricornus, the
water goat and Pisces, the fish.
To the Greeks, Aquarius was associated with Ganymede, the son
of Tros, king of Phrygia. The god Zeus, so admired the boy's
beauty that he abducted him to serve as cup bearer on Mount
Olympus. It was this desire to possess the young prince which
inspired Zeus to cast his image eternally in the night sky.
The Egyptians associated this time of year with the god Hapi. A
heavyset, abundant figure, Hapi was responsible for the annual
flooding of the river Nile. In some images he is seen watering
the earth from two large jugs.
The Dreams: People have been having many water type dreams.
Usually they are very scary. Many people are afraid that these
dreams are prophetic and that the ocean is going to come over
