The Fagan-Bradley setting of the 12 equal (30°) Signs is Sidereal. The Vernal Equinoctial Point's position in this Zodiac is known as the Synetic Vernal Point (S.V.P.), and it precesses (transits) retrograde at the rate of 50.3" of arc per year, or 1° every 71.6 years. Using the S.V.P. as the Age Indicator (if a Sideralist cares to include it in a Chart) results in the start of the Sidereal Aquarian Age in the year 2368, +/- 24 years, allowing for the back-and-forth motion caused by the Moon, called "Nutation". Compare this date to the much earlier ones, like the Year 2000 or 2012 or 2149, bandied about by Tropical Astrologers and non-astrologers alike who aren't using any version of a Sidereal Zodiac for an actual Astrological Chart. Meaning, they're making up a bogus[IMO] setting for Sidereal Signs that they themselves are using for the sole purpose of satisfying their "intuitive sense" that an Aquarian Age will begin centuries earlier than Fagan-Bradley Sideralism (or any other well-known version of Siderealism) says it will. Anyway, according to established Siderealism, what we're experiencing now is the last five or six degrees of the Sidereal Age of Pisces, not the real beginning of the Sidereal Aquarian Age. Make of it what you will, but these are
the facts. Just tellin' it like I see it. Alternative opinions welcome!
Of course, I have that "intuitive sense" of an earlier Aquarian Age myself, and I trust it.
So, for me, it comes down to explaining it without disrespecting the Sidereal Zodiac's S.V.P. and the Vedic ayanamsa.
