Aquarian Calendar Frequently Asked Questions.
(Reforming the calendar to celebrate Seasons as World Holidays)

Why do we need to reform the calendar?
Because it's disconnection with nature has lead to the degradation of our environment by not living in harmony with nature.

How does the Aquarian calendar connect us with nature?
The Aquarian Calendar creates world Season Holidays on or near the Solstices and Equinoxes which are common to all the people of the Earth allowing all people to celebrate the Seasons.

Do the Aquarian World Season Holidays fall exactly on the Solstices and Equinoxes?
No because the Solstices and Equinoxes happen with in a 24 hour time period so they can happen with in two day periods.

If they don't fall exactly on the Holiday what good would that be?
Because they will always fall on the Friday week-end or on the Holiday allowing them to be celebrated.

Is this the New World Order?
No it is the Natural World Order that was in existence before man.

How does celebrating the seasons help save the environment?
Celebrating the seasons increases the consciousness of the movement of the Earth and Sun alignments which is also aligning with Solar Energy.

How can aligning with the Solar Energy help save the Earth?
Just imagine if every house built had more windows on the Equator(sun side) of the house and few or no windows on the Pole sides of the house. We would use less resources, dig less West Virginia Mountain Tops, Cut down fewer trees for heat, import less oil for heat, which would result in less pollution and less need to go to war over oil.

Can't we connect to the Sun and Earths turning points with out reforming the calendar?
Yes but we haven't because our Gregorian Calendar has a shifting 14 year cycle which makes the Solstices and Equinoxes fall into the middle of the week sometimes so it is difficult to get people to gather because of the work week.

Why does the Gregorian Calendar have a shifting 14 year cycle?
Because it has random variable month lengths from 28 days to 31 days.

Why does it have variable month lengths?
Because that is what Pope Gregory and his advisors decided.

Why did they design it that way?
Because they wanted to discourage people from celebrating nature like the pagan people did at the time.

Are Pagans devil worshipers?
No the word Pagan means "country folk" not associated with the 3 major religions of Christianity, Judaism, or Islam. It originally ment the ancient tribes of Europe before Christianization and also includes Native Americans.

Why did they want to discourage nature worship?
Because at the time they thought, the actual word of the Bible was the ultimate truth and they thought that the Earth was in the center of the Universe.

Do they still think this way?
No in the year 2000 the Vatican finally gave a formal apology to Galileo for putting him under house arrest for teaching that the Earth went around the Sun and said they were mistaken in their interpretation of the Bible.

But isn't the Bible the word of God?
The problem with the Bible is it has be interopretated, translated and edited by so many people at various times for various reasons that it is hard to know the truth. People such as Monk Giordano Bruno who also taught that the Earth went around the Sun, have been put to death for heresy due to misguided interpretations of the Bible.

Is this calendar against the word of God?
No. this calendar seeks to align people with the "Work of God" as evidence in the nature he created. This calendar seeks not to destroy religions but to incorporate religions with nature.

What proof is there that the Church wanted to discourage people from connecting with Nature?
Because the church incorporated the ancient pagan holidays and put their holidays near the natural Solstices and Equinoxes so the Pagans would make the transition to celebrate the Religion Holidays since they were compelled to or face heresey charges and witch accusations.

What evidence is there for the over taking of the Pagan Holidays.
Clues can be found in words. At the Northern Hemisphere's spring Equinox, the Earth is East of the Sun. that is why Easter is named Easter? The Sun's direct Rays "Pass Over" the Equator as in the Jewish term passover to name a few. In addition, Sunday means Sun-day not Sonday.

Are the religions bad for doing this?
No, religions have many good aspects but being separated from nature does not result in over all good.

What are the other benefits of Aquarian Calendar reform?
It is predictable and easy to get into rhythm with and incorporates many symbols.

Why is it good that it is predictable and rhythmical?
Imagine if our weeks were different length, there is no advantage to having random month lengths. Why would we want to create more confusion if we don't need to.

What Symbols does the Aquarian Calendar-Clock incorporate?
The cross of the Solstices and Equinoxes is revealed by the world Holidays and is also the symbol of the planet Earth and the seal of Solomon or Star of David is revealed in the Color wheel representing the light. It also contains a cube in the center of the Seal of Solomon. It also includes the Yin-Yang and I Ching.

Why is it good that the Aquarian Calendar-clock incorporates these symbols?
Because the Cross also represents Christianity, the Star of David is a symbol of Judaism, the Cube is like the Cube of Mecca of Islam. The Yin- Yang and I Ching are related to Taoism, and Buddhism. It shows that all the symbols are actually part of Nature. It creates common unity rather than division.

Why is it good to find these symbols related to Time?
Because they are all part of the Map to the fundamental pattern of Nature that we can unify around rather than argue over.

Why do the numbers on the Aquarian Calendar go counter clock-wise?
It could go either way because everything is relative depending upon where you observe it from, but this way is prefered because it turns with the direction of the rotation of the Earth because when placed on the Equatorial facing wall, the numbers will match up with the apparent motion of the Sun.

What do you mean apparent motion of the Sun?
The Sun does not move in the sky...it only appears to move because of the daily rotation of the Earth and the yearly rotation around the Sun.

Why does the Aquarian Calendar-Clock only have 12 hours in a day?
Because it is more logical to have the same units of measurement for the yearly cycle and the daily cycle and then allows the clock and the calendar to be integrated.

How is it more logical?
Because a quarter after on the clock the big hand will point to 3 and it will be 30 min after the hour and also the same with 6 to 60min, 9 to 90min, 12 to 120 min.

How does the Aquarian Clock face integrate with the year?
The numbers 1-12 also represents the 1-12 months. It is just on a larger time scale.

Does the Aquarian Calendar line up with the Zodiac signs?
There are two ways to refer to the star relationships. There is Tropical and Sidereal time. The Aquarian Calendar more closely aligns to the Tropical definition of the Zodiac than does the Gregorian Calendar. The Gregorian does not currently line up with Tropical or Sidereal time.

Why does it more closely align with the Tropical?
Because the Tropical year divides the year into 12 equal parts and keeps the names of these houses or lunar mansions as they were in antiquity where as the sidereal houses move one degree approximately every 72 years with the procession of Equinoxes.(on side real time eventually Leo will be in the winter and everything continually moves) There for the Aquarian Calendar is based on the time of the seasonal turning points rather than the stars which will continually change due to the wobble of the Earths axis. Additionally the real constellations vary widely in size and the would not be divided up equally though out the year.

Are there other reasons why the Aquarian Calendar-clock face is more logical?
Yes you can visibly see the balanced patterns of the sun rises and sun sets of the day on the clock face.

Can you see the sunrise and sunset pattern on the 24 hour am /pm clock?
No because goes around two times in a day it will not show the changing light pattern.

Why are the month names on the Aquarian Calendar-Clock different?
Because the names are more connected to the yearly light and life cycle.

What is wrong with the Gregorian calendar month names?
July and August are named after Julius and Augustus Caeser, and the Latin meaning of Sept, Oct, Nov and Dec mean 7,8,9,10 although they are our 9,10, 11, 12, month.

What are the benefits of the Aquarian Calendar-Clock four day work week?
It is better for decreasing the unemployment rate and giving more people jobs instead of over working some people and under employing others.

What are the benefits of the Aquarian Calendar-Clock 30 day months of 5 weeks of six days each?
The month always starts on the same day and ends on a week-end which makes it better for future planning.

What are the arguments against the Aquarian Calendar- Clock?
It would take some computer program updates but this could also help unemployment.

Why does this seem harder to understand for me?
Because your mind is like a computers operating system. You were downloaded with the software of the old Gregorian calendar in grade school. Children would find this much easier than learning the Gregorian system and current clock.

What are some of the steps to bring about the reformation of the Gregorian calendar?
The easist thing to do is to start having celebrations of the Seasons (although they will fall into the middle of the week sometimes). The second thing would be to refer people to this web page. The next step would be to get a petition signed and contact leaders in government to make the Seasons Holidays. Then lastly would be calendar reform.

How do you answer critics who say that this is a pie in the sky impossible idea?
Change has to start some where and the longest journey begins with a single step. In order for something to be, you must first imagine it. I also ask is, our current Gregorian calendar, developed in a time when you could be put to death for teaching that the earth went around the sun, the ultimate design?

How do you answer critics who say that a 6 day week is against the Bible?
I say that the idea that the Earth went around the Sun was not supported by the Bible either and the Bible is subject to interpretation and ask why would God really care how long a week is because all weeks are man made and correspond to no celestial event.
