SOCIAL MOVEMENTS AND AQUARIUS

Aug 15, 2006 08:25 AM

Friends,

There is a cause for Marxism limitations and mistakes. 

Leon Tolstoy in Russia was a tremendously influential popular thinker, as Jean-Jacques Rousseau had been before him in the whole of Europe.  

Both Tolstoy and Rousseau,  and many others, sowed the premises or starting points of social movements after them.  Such premises say  that "the working class is good-natured, while the elite and ruling class is rotten". It  naturally follows that  "if we 'remove' the ruling class,  everything will be  about OK".

Thus we had the French Revolution in late 18th century, the Russian Revolution in the early 20th century, Chinese Revolution, Cuban revolution, etc.

"The people was good, we only had to remove Capitalist Ruling Class and everything would be OK." 

It was the premises, especially this one, that were wrong.  We saw that ruling classes were "removed" -- and new ruling classes did even WORSE things than had been done before. 

Social movements are being rethought now in some parts. Now they re-start from the practical and unavoidable need for accepting that individual self-knowledge, self-enlightenment  and self-liberation  are  the only true foundations for any  wider process of social enlightenment and justice.  

This new vision of things is connected, astrologically, to the immense possibilities of the now opening Aquarian Age. Brotherhood with Individual Independence is typically Aquarian. 

Progress in this direction has been slow, but it will be lasting. Besides, its speed may soon change for the better.   

Best regards,   Carlos.

Whatever it might be, I'm thinking that there might be so many ways of interpreting such goings on, in various senses/contexts, that maybe the dictators themselves might have some trouble figuring out what goes on in their heads, hearts, or wherever. I was wondering if Courtney Brown or other "scientific remote viewers" might have had glimpses into such goings on.
