What has happened is that Americans received so much prosperity and peace and became such a great power as never before in history, that they have gotten used to these conditions, and prefer to hang on to what remains from the great high rather than start a risky revolution. So they settle for Biden rather than Bernie Sanders, because they think a socialist can't win.
It is only one 84-year saeculum, however. The system in place today will still be around for another 400 years, although the USA as we know it may not be around in its current form for all this time. It won't matter; we are a global society now, and this is irrevocable as of the world wars and the new technology. The global system as we know it will remain pretty much intact, even if decaying in its latter stages, for the next 400 years.
The years 2160-65 will see a confluence of world powers, and a true new world order. The powers will come together at a great conference in 2162-63 and create a true working world government. At the same time, nations will demand and maintain their place. A war could follow to substantiate the new system in circa 2165, but it won't last long, and a good working system will emerge that could last for millennia. This will also be exactly one cycle of Pluto since the League of Nations was founded.
This era to come is marked by the same Uranus-Neptune alignment that followed on the heels of the creation of the great power system at the Treaty of Westphalia in 1648, and the organization of the Concert of Europe in 1815 following the defeat of Napoleon that created a system of relative peace for a century. Just after George H W Bush declared the "new world order" came the previous such conjunction in 1993, which I predicted to bring about the end of the Cold War, and it did. More new nations emerged than ever before, and a truly new diplomatic order emerged in which some degree of world cooperation became possible. The EU was founded in 1993 and it will withstand the tremors it has experienced and be a model for the future world system in 2165.
Only if we receive the inspiration of the last two Awakenings, and thus re-open to occult and esoteric knowledge and thereby discover that astrology holds the true key to charting our destiny, and that its 84-year revolutionary cycle of Uranus is identical to the modern saeculum so that its recurring cycles were already known to astrologers before S&H, will we truly be able to understand where we are in history and where we're going. There is more than one cycle, or one megacycle, going on at all times in human civilization and culture.
Eric,
You have mentioned this world government concept before and the years you provide astrologically actually match up with the birth of Sobornost in Russia...which is supposed to take shape around the year 2150. From my own research into the matter, it does seem to be pointing more towards and not entirely a global event...so the question is -why are we occultists predicting the Sobornost and you on the other hand are predicting a world government during the same period? That interests me.
You do forget however that the concept of the golden age might not even come about. Resources are starting to run out and the world will eventually hit peak oil. I recall speaking to some gazprom guys about this and they told me Russia has about 50 years left of crude before peak starts. I am sure America is already hitting peak or might follow suit in a few decades down the line.
My point is resources are finite and the technological progress we think we are seeing actually isn't coming to fruition. To get out of this mess, we need a brand new energy or technology and this isn't taking shape. Why do you think all of these riots and protests are really happening? Because technology has stagnated and isn't leading us to the stars as it should be doing. Otherwise progress would continue onward. Yet in reality, we have overall stopped innovating since the 1970s with a brief spike with the internet but even that that is starting to dry up.
Im a big sceptic that a golden age is going to come about. If anything, we might end up seeing things immensely slow down on Earth which actually would be very good for the environment.
At some point, Saudi Arabia, Libya, Iran, and Algeria will be bigger sources for energy from solar power than from fossil fuels. Energy will not disappear; its source will change.
