I don't relate to "the second awakening." As a 1949 cohort, most of my cohorts and those younger down to 1957 experienced the same Aquarian Awakening as the 1937-47 group did.

The supergroup idea does have some merit though, I think, at least regarding your 2T group. But much of your list is just the existing generations. Your 3T supergroup is almost entirely Gen X. Your 4T supergroup is almost entirely millennials, and your 1T group is entirely Gen Z.
