Uranus in Aquarius is very civic. And I certainly think our saeculum has been going global, aligning onto our cycle. The great change of our time is that we have become a global civilization, although also with local and national segments and parts that have integrity and contribute to the whole. The ecological, holistic principles are our guiding "stars" as we move into the future. And we are also parts not only of the globe, but the solar system too. We are not isolated in any way.
I agree that our seaculum is going global in most of (if not the entire) world, though I looked in the old forums a few months back, and saw a post from S&H themselves in which they said that the Islamic world is in a slightly different cycle than ours, they believe their 1T started in the early 1960s and went until the late 1970s and that their Awakening began in 1979 and ended sometime in the early 2000s (I think they also said their 3T culture didn't really kick off until the late 2000s and emulated our 3T in a lot of ways). Now, I know next to nothing about Islam or it's cycles and as the 3T and 4T of the Civil War seaculum proved, S&H themselves can be wrong about the exact dates of cycles sometimes, but what are your thoughts on that, could S&H be right about the Islamic cycle?
I'm not who you were replying to, but most of the Middle East and North Africa appears to me to be roughly aligned with the West, just a bit later, with a 4T having begun in most countries in the region in 2011, and within a few years either direction in all others nearby. The exception to this, for some reason, is Algeria, which is almost exactly one full turning behind the West and entered a 3T as all of its neighbors entered a 4T. It is possible that Algeria is the only country that is unambiguously 3T right now, but most likely there are a few others. I've been meaning to try to work this out for a while, as it implies that the world can be almost "missing" a specific turning, which could have interesting effects.
I do think it's possible that the Western saeculum may be "spreading" across Europe. Ukraine in particular is an interesting case. Most countries in Eastern Europe are still clearly in a 1T, though.
