Earth's precession was historically called the precession of the equinoxes, because the equinoxes moved westward along | Earth's precession was historically called the precession of the equinoxes, because the equinoxes moved westward along the ecliptic relative to the fixed stars, opposite to the yearly motion of the Sun along the [[Ecliptic]].The precession of the Earth's axis has a number of observable effects. First, the positions of the south and north celestial poles appear to move in circles against the space-fixed backdrop of stars, completing one circuit in approximately 26,000 years.<ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_precession Axial Precession]</ref> | ||
The [[Precession of the Equinoxes]] is used interchangeably to describe the mechanics of the [[Ascension]] cycle as the evolutionary progression of humanities consciousness expansion on the earth. | The [[Precession of the Equinoxes]] is used interchangeably to describe the mechanics of the [[Ascension]] cycle as the evolutionary progression of humanities consciousness expansion on the earth. | ||

Refers to the precession of Earth's axis of rotation with respect to inertial space. A complete precession cycle (One Astrological Age) covers a period of approximately 25,765 years, the so called [[Great Platonic Year]], during which time the equinox regresses over a full 360°. The precessional movement also is the determining factor in the length of an Astrological Age or Aeon. (Note that there are 12 Zodiac Archetypes that are each of the 12 Astrological Ages. We are moving from the Age of Pisces to the Age of Aquarius.) The precession of the equinoxes is caused by the differential between the gravitational forces of the Sun and Moon on the Earth. | Refers to the precession of Earth's axis of rotation with respect to inertial space. Inertial space is a coordinate system (or a frame of reference) defined with respect to the distant stars, whose relative positions do not change over reasonably long periods of time.

==Platonic Year== | |||
Term for the longest cosmic cycle from a geocentric point of view. It is the time taken for the vernal equinox to travel through the whole ecliptic. This takes 25729 years (according to some estimates 25771 years). | |||
The vernal equinox spends on average 2144 years in one sign of the zodiac. This epoch is known as a Platonic month. A Platonic day is roughly 72 years, the average age of a human being.<ref>[https://www.astro.com/astrowiki/en/Platonic_Year Platonic Year]</ref> | |||
==Platonic Month== | |||
Exactly one-twelfth of a Great Year. The length of a Platonic month equals 2160.4 years. These figures may be represented as adjusted to the estimated years used to calculate the Precession of Equinoxes, i.e. 26,000 years or 25,729 years, etc. | |||
The term appears to have first been coined by Carl Gustav Jung in Aion where, in footnote 84, he gives us its calculated length: 2,143 years. Two centuries earlier Voltaire had proposed the concept, but not given it this name.<ref>[http://www.oocities.org/astrologyages/jungsplatonicmonth.htm]</ref> | |||
