Here is the human potential masterwork that defined the New Age. Called "an exciting vision of the future” (Cleveland Plain Dealer), “a handbook of the New Age” (USA Today), and “a new charter of human possibility” (Norman Cousins) upon its initial publication in 1980, The Aquarian Conspiracy is a breathtaking, compelling study of the changes in work, relationships, medicine, religion, education, and more that comprised the birth of the New Age movement. An influence on thinkers from Deepak Chopra to Al Gore, The Aquarian Conspiracy remains a thorough, detailed classic of contemporary thought—an impeccable document that traces one of the most powerful cultural movements of our age.
What Thomas Paine did for the American Revolution with the publication of Common Sense, Marilyn Ferguson does for the transpersonal revolution. Marilyn Ferguson is one of the preeminent thinkers, gatherers, and interpreters of research on the cutting-edge fields of human consciousness. The Aquarian Conspiracy, published in 1980, has sold millions of copies, is continuously in print, and was hailed as the "handbook of the New Age," by USA Today. In her newer book, Aquarius Now, movement pioneer Ferguson reexamines the paradigm shift to a more mindful society. She sees us caught in a mindless materialism that threatens our material existence. We are seduced by what she calls the ‘Cult of Numbers’, obsessed with competition, with winning and losing, afraid of anything that can't be seen or measured, and in the grip of an economic model that says only that which generates economic growth is worth pursuing. What can we do? Ferguson boldly tells the truth--we have no enemy except ourselves and the mess we've made individually and collectively by refusing to see what we're doing to our own bodies, to society, and the Earth itself. We've refused to consider the clues in front of our faces. The imbalance we see outside ourselves only mirrors the imbalance within. The way to heal the imbalance is to heal ourselves. The way to heal ourselves is to pay attention, to witness. We need to take responsibility for our own actions. We need to heed the words of the myriad teachers and skills at our disposal. We need to learn to rely on our own "radical common sense." The task is not to climb a mountain, but to navigate a river. We have to stop thinking of ourselves as conquerors and start thinking of ourselves as fellow travelers' with other human beings and every living being on this planet, including the planet itself. Ferguson dares to ask the question, "Can we change?" and concludes that we can and we must change. The Age of Aquarius will occur when we want it to occur.
The sixties saw massive shifts in consciousness as a higher authority was setting the stage for “The Coming.” Camelot was meant to fall, with the 5th Dimension singing background, as Petula sings curious lyrics to a “distant love” while Target changed its logo of 6 elements to that of 3 in preparation. The wizard then created it’s polar 6 in the hills of OZark, and egos shop as if nothing approaches. The “Inconvenient Truth” of climate change is however, an allegory of Earth changes as we enter new energy fields as we align at the plane of galactic center, ushering the death of 3-D Iron. The smoke in the shape of a galaxy on its cover speak to the aware, confirming it to be an Alaôr , along with Al’s assertion that he took the initiative in creating the Internet, as it too is an allegory for the coming Aquarian awareness. “The weather, very peculiar, Don’t you think?” Like a Bronze Phoenix, the organic 5D NWO will “Spring” from the wintry rubble of rust, with its 4 letters, that was the dark polarities “mechanized” nwo. This mystical setting is for my fellow Prodigals, “to whom it is given,” who are waking up to the emptiness of their 3D Las Vegash folly here in the 7-11 School of Duality! As the new millennium began, the ultimate paradox was played out. Understated symbolism with an ironic twist, as a president tells his countrymen to go out and shop after 9-11 with wars planned, while Target, in contradiction, airs a television commercial that has nothing to do with shopping, but everything to do with our spiritual advancement beyond this 3D setting. A logo and a thirty-second commercial that defy any explanation in terms of ordinary marketing. A divine message, seen by billions and “not seen”. If You have not retreated, then perhaps it is Your time to take this information and prepare. It is the easiest, and most Sirius, choice you will ever make to finally understand why, there will be a cleansing "Reckoning", and what cosmological purpose it serves with a "Final Judgement", which I had rejected until I discovered the purpose it serves, as a very precise program that oversees the development of new Stars and their Darker polar partners, within the expanding Cosmos. Learn the real meaning of 9-11 and 7-11, and why “The Fall” of Man, the Angels and Lucifer was preordained and had to occur for this “Polar” expansion. When you Know Yourself, you will understand your own “Arc” frequency and how to adjust it, making you the Master of your game! This was the “Ark” Noah was “building” to adjust and align his with the “higher frequency” of the next Age, discovering the Narrow Gate! Time has come to pay attention to the “invisible” Man behind the curtain and the real identity of the “visible” Lucifer and the real truth of the “Light-Bearer”, that was hidden from the children until the few were ready for adult concepts. Time to be aware of our Mother and know “You’ve always had the power”, and that no “evil” can steal your “sole”, Dorothy! The multitude of clue filled counterfeit current “events” point to This, Sign of the Times! Oh thank heaven for 7-11, as one play concludes, and your new front row seat to “A Star is Born”!
This revised and updated edition offers an indepth analysis of the true nature of the controversial New Age movement and of social and personal transformation in the 1980s.
The masterwork of a brilliant career, and an important document of the crisis now facing mankind. Today we find ourselves in the midst of the greatest crisis in the history of the human race. Technology has placed in our hands almost unlimited power at the very moment when we have run up against the limits of our resources aboard Spaceship Earth, as the crises of the late twentieth century—political, economic, environmental, and ethical—determine whether or not humanity survives. In this masterful summing up of an entire lifetime’s thought and concern, R. Buckminster Fuller addresses these crucial issues in his most significant, accessible, and urgent work. Critical Path traces the origins and evolution of humanity’s social, political, and economic systems from the obscure mists of prehistory, through the development of the great political empires, to the vast international corporate and political systems that control our destiny today to show how we got to our present situation and what options are available to man. With his customary brilliance, extraordinary energy, and unlimited devotion, Bucky Fuller shows how mankind can survive, and how each individual can respond to the unprecedented threat we face today. The crowning achievement of an extraordinary career, Critical Path offers the reader the excitement of understanding the essential dilemmas of our time and how responsible citizens can rise to meet this ultimate challenge to our future.
We are at the threshold of a transitional period from the Age of Pisces to the Age of Aquarius. What should we expect from this coming New Era? What are its signs? What is the fate of human spirituality? What will the new concepts of God and of religion be? This book attempts to answer these questions based on well researched sources complemented and endorsed by cosmology, archeology, psychology, religion, Near East studies, and mythology, among other scientific disciplines. The book also intends to clarify the confusion created by some Protestant religious leaders and sensationalistic writers who have misinterpreted the signs of the transitional period as the end of the world. The truth is that we are witnessing a shift of ages, that is, the slow evolution from the Piscean Era to the commencing of a new worldwide social order, a new chapter in human history called the Aquarian dispensation. The huge conspiracy propounded by false prophets and some New Age writers, whether overtly or covertly, feeds the fear and anxiety of ordinary people with unfounded apocalyptic propaganda. This book attempts to give the reader an accurate perspective regarding the planetary transformations that are taking place; it offers hope and inspiration as we approach the Golden Age.
Schwarz guides readers through the range of opinions on the subject of the future, telling how readers' understanding of eschatology has developed and laying out the factors that must be considered when speaking meaningfully about the Christian hope in the 21st century. He surveys the teachings about the future in the Old and New Testaments and addresses the views of Christian and secular thinkers throughout history.
