An astrological age is a time period in astrologic mythology which astrologers claim parallels major changes in the development of Earth's inhabitants, particularly relating to culture, society, and politics. There are twelve astrological ages corresponding to the twelve zodiacal signs in western astrology. At the completion of one cycle of twelve astrological ages, the cycle is claimed to repeat itself 〔Neil Spencer, ''True as the Stars Above'', Victor Gollancz London, 2000, p. 116〕 every 25,920 years.〔Billy Meier's Contact Report 9, sentence № 186. ''()''〕 There are two myths about the effects upon the world due to the astrological ages. Some astrologers believe the changes upon Earth are caused and marked by the influences of the given astrological sign associated with its Age, while other astrologers think that the ages simply happen in that sequence.〔Richard Tarnas, ''Cosmos and Psyche - Intimations of a New World View'', Viking/Penguin, New York, 2006, pp. 50–60〕 Astrologers cannot agree upon exact dates for the beginning or ending of the ages, with given dates varying hundreds of years.〔Nicholas Campion, ''The Book of World Horoscopes'', The Wessex Astrologer, Bournemouth, Great Britain, 1998, pp. 480–495〕 ==Overview== There are three broad perspectives on the astrological ages: # Archeoastronomers are interested in the ages because some researchers believe that ancient civilizations often depicted cultural references to the ages. Archeoastronomers in general do not 'believe' in astrology, but they study the cultural traditions of societies that did refer extensively to astrology. # Astrologers have been interested in relating world history to the astrological ages since the late 19th century;〔Neil Spencer, ''True as the Stars Above'', Victor Gollancz London, 2000, p. 117〕 however, most astrologers study horoscopes, not astrological ages. # The general public has become aware of the Age of Aquarius since it was publicized in the musical ''Hair''.〔Neil Spencer, ''True as the Stars Above'', Victor Gollancz London, 2000, pp. 124–5〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「astrological age」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
