We live in complex times, but not completely incomprehensible ones. In his new book, Ray Grasse explores the concept of the "Great Ages," and its implications for contemporary society. When does the Age of Aquarius start, exactly, and how will it shape our world? Drawing on sources ranging from religion to cinema, Grasse weaves a synchronistic portrait of modern history that suggests the influence of Aquarius may already be transforming our world in profound ways.
"This book is a masterpiece carefully crafted gathering data over decades. Reading it I said again and again 'aha' and 'of course,' as I was led through history to contemporary events in a brilliant view of what the Aquarian Age really is about. This book is profound, prolific, and prophetic."
— Laurence Hillman, co-author of Alignments: How to Live in Harmony with the Universe
"To penetrate through the surface of scattered historical facts and then discern the underlying archetypal patterns of history requires an exceptional visionary consciousness. Ray Grasse, in Signs of the Times, has managed to describe the dynamic shift of archetypal patterns emerging in our contemporary life. Fifty years ago, Carl Jung's work Aion showed a similar form of symbolic insight as it traced the development of the Piscean Age from Christ to the Twentieth Century. Grasse's courageous and holoscopic picture of the vast changes ahead for our planet deserves the same consideration as Jung's classic."
