The
New Sixties
The
sixties continues to live and breathe in 2006. Why? Some astrologers
point to Uranus-in-Pisces opposing the degree where the momentous
Uranus-Pluto conjunction in Virgo occurred during the mid-1960’s.
However, the ongoing (since 2003) Uranus-Neptune
mutual reception is also responsible. The effects of Uranus
and Neptune's combined energies could be seen in the sixties--when
transiting Uranus sprinkled pixie dust over every flower child’s
Neptune, causing outbreaks of rose-colored granny glasses
and ankle bells.. An exchange of energies between
Uranus and Neptune excites protest, colorful creativity, and
rebellion. Here is a recent sampling of re-born sixties trends:
- Sixties
popular music is being used in TV commercials. Donovan’s
“Catch the Wind” in a Volvo commercial took
me by surprise. Alert television viewers may also have caught
music by the Yardbirds, the Allman Brothers, the Kinks,
Led Zeppelin, the Turtles, , the Lovin’ Spoonful,
the Who (“Happy Jack” for a Hummer commercial),
Jefferson Airplane, the Rolling Stones, and just recently
Iron Butterfly’s “In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida”
for Fidelity Bank.
- Also,
sixties mod artist Peter Max-style kaleidoscope graphics
(think Yellow Submarine)
is popular in commercials.
- Political
protesting is big again, after a long hiatus.
- A
popular women’s fashion is the lacy, ruffled untucked
blouse with hippie-style streamers dangling from the hem
and sleeves, as well as Victorian England meets London Underground
tops—and, for both sexes, military camouflage (army
jackets were popular in the sixties).
- The
2006 movie V for
Vendetta was a sixties-type “power to the people” film
made, as Astro-Noetics.com
astutely points out, by two guys who were born
in the mid-sixties.
Another Uranus-Neptune
sixties sighting: hookahs, those communal smoking pipes which
cool the smoke with water. They were big in the 1960’s
for marijuana and hashish inhalation. Today, they are popular
with college students. Hookah “bars” (strictly
for flavored tobacco) have been proliferating near many college
campuses. You can read
a recent NY Times article
on this phenomenon here.
I was recently in an Old Navy store and noticed the sixties
style of many young women’s fashions, including a selection
of shirts with lace trim, and beads and tiny mirrors on blouses.
Take
a look at the women’s shirts in this online Old Navy
display and see if it doesn’t look like a replay of
the 1960’s.
I think it has to be more than Uranus opposing the degree
of the mid-1960’s Uranus-Pluto conjunction because that
opposition will not last too long. This fashion trend has
been “flowering” for awhile now. The mutual
reception
of Uranus and Neptune is very much behind this clothing trend,
indicating it has “legs” and will be with us for
awhile (the Uranus-Neptune mutual reception will continue
until 2011), although the form of Uranus-Neptune fashions
may change.
