In 1969, AQUARIUS - Let The Sunshine In by The 5th Dimension hit the Top 40 chart and peaked for 6 weeks at No.1 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. The single was eventually certified platinum in the U.S. and the song listed at No. 66 on Billboard's "Greatest Songs of All Time."
The 5th Dimension - AQUARIUS Let The Sunshine In
LYRICS:
When the moon is in the Seventh House And Jupiter aligns with Mars Then peace will guide the planets And love will steer the stars This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius Age of Aquarius Aquarius (2x) Harmony and understanding Sympathy and trust abounding, No more falsehoods or derisions. Golden living dreams of visions. Mystic crystal revelation and the mind's true liberation. Aquarius
(2x) When the moon is in the Seventh House And Jupiter aligns with Mars Then peace will guide the planets And love will steer the stars. This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius Age of Aquarius Aquarius. (4x) Let the sunshine, let the sunshine in, the sunshine in. Let the sunshine, let the sunshine in, the sunshine in. Let the sunshine, let the sunshine in, the sunshine in. Oh, let it shine, c'mon Now everybody just sing along. Let the sunshine in. Open up your heart and let it shine on in. When you are lonely, let it shine on. Got to open up your heart and let it shine on in. And when you feel like you've been mistreated And your friends turn away Just open your heart, and shine it on in.
This song was one of the most popular songs of 1969 worldwide. In the US, it reached the #1 position on both the Billboard Hot 100 (for 6 weeks in April and May) and the Billboard Easy Listening chart. It also reached the top of the sales charts in Canada and elsewhere. Billboard ranked it as the No. 2 Hot 100 single for 1969, although "Aquarius (Let the Sunshine In)" would go on to outsell the No. 1 Hot 100 single for 1969, "Sugar Sugar" by The Archies, and consistently ranks several positions above it in the all-time chart.
The recording won both the Grammy Award for Record of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Performance by a Group for the Grammy Awards of 1970, after being published on the album The Age of Aquarius by the 5th Dimension, and also being released as a seven-inch vinyl single record. In 2004, the song was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame.
The lyrics of this song were based on the astrological belief that the world would soon be entering the "Age of Aquarius", an age of love, light, and humanity, unlike the current "Age of Pisces". The circumstances for the change are given as: "When the moon is in the seventh house, and Jupiter aligns with Mars." Astrologer Neil Spencer denounced the lyrics as "astrological gibberish", noting that Jupiter forms an astrological aspect with Mars several times a year and the moon is in the 7th House for two hours every day.
The song with its uplifting, elegance, and tremendous harmonies, is a combination of two songs written for the 1967 iconoclastic musical Hair by James Rado (lyrics), Gerome Ragni (lyrics), and Galt MacDermot (music). The 5th Dimension was notable for a sound that blended pop, jazz, R&B, and gospel.
The group has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, inducted August 9, 1991. The group was also inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2002. The song was used in the movie Forrest Gump (1994) and covered by many artists: Diana Ross, Andy Williams, The Osmonds, The Ventures, Donna Summer, Ray Stevens, Cila Black, Reaction, Johnny Mathis, Tragedy.
From Pisces to Aquarius
The promise of the visionary Age of Aquarius is that it will be unlike anything humanity has seen – an innovative and technology-driven society, a forward-thinking, intellectually driven, and artificially intelligent Great Age. The Age of Aquarius will usher in a new social dynamic, guiding humanity toward restructured global hierarchies.
The Age of Aquarius will push forth an inclusive, humanitarian, and community-led era. However, the revolutionary changes we will witness over the coming decades are just a taste of something greater in store for humanity.
Pluto In Aquarius Horoscope 2023-2044: Welcome To A New Era 5/13/24
The world is fundamentally changing, and so are you. Pluto has arrived in visionary Aquarius, instigating a slow-burning cycle of destruction and renewal from 2023 to 2044. Pluto is our sacred planet of mass movements, upheaval, and shifting power dynamics. When journeying through collectivist Aquarius – the zodiacal archetype of non-conformity, revolution, and enlightenment – we can expect life-changing transformations to unfold on the world stage.
Social and political trends will radically shift, preluding extreme uprisings. Rapid technological advancements will alter our usage and understanding of medicine, the internet, and voting systems. The destruction of our systems and societal expectations, instigated through a collective awakening unlike anything humanity has experienced, will lead to the reformation of global structures.
Pluto in Aquarius will inspire brilliant visions of our shared future that we must carry with seriousness and responsibility. Rather than charging forward with reckless ambition, we must strive to upgrade, innovate, and transform our environment with grounded optimism.
Pluto challenges us to break the cycle of group thinking. We must take pride in choosing meaningful causes with careful judgment rather than following the status quo or uncritically devoting ourselves to the rise and fall of trends and assumptions. During Pluto’s evolutionary cycle, we will adapt to a new way of being, cultivating wisdom as we explore the influences of social groups and communities, technology, and media on our unconscious minds. The universe guides us to realize what causes us to feel empowered and what makes us feel powerless.
The Dark Age: 2000-2023
In early 2020 after COVID was announced, we were first act to “shelter in place” for 15 days to “flatten the curve” to protect hospitals. That morphed into months of unprecedented lockdown of healthy people (martial law). Nearly 700 Days Into “2 Weeks To Flatten The Curve” & The Only Thing That’s Reduced Is Your Freedom.
Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft, who is not a doctor or scientist (he didn’t even graduate from college) and was not elected or appointed by anyone, later said the world could not go fully back to normal until almost all 7 billion people got the rushed, novel, poorly-tested, gene therapy mRNA COVID shots falsely referred to as “vaccines”.
With the imposition of the draconian COVID policies, humanity entered a very dark age. It was an age of enormous fear, violation of our God-given rights protected by the First Amendment of Freedom of Speech, Freedom of the Press, Freedom of Assembly, and Freedom of Religion.
Although the CDC stats in early 2020 showed COVID-19 was little threat to anyone, most of the world was locked down, “non-essential” businesses were closed without due process or just compensation as were public schools, people were forced to wear suffocating ineffective masks and to “social distance” by keeping six feet apart.
Many people were forced to take the invasive PCR test although Kary Mullis, its inventor, said it could be used to detect viruses. Mullis conveniently died on August 7, 2019. Had he lived to mid-2020, the PCR test could not have been used for COVID. Without the PCR tests, there would have been no “pandemic” of “cases” to terrify many people into compliance.
How To Restore Free Speech In Academia reminds us that when Dr. Francis Collins was the head of the National Institute of Health (NIH) in 2021, he dismissed the authors of The Great Barrington Declaration as “fringe scientists”. He refused to meet with them although The Declaration was written by Dr. Jay Bhattacharya of Stanford University, Dr. Martin Kulldorff then of Harvard Medical School, and Dr. Sunetra Gupta of Oxford University. The Declaration has since been signed by more than 940,000 people including doctors and scientists!
Dr. Collins emailed Dr. Anthony Fauci who was then head of the National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) on 10/8/20 to say: 'There needs to be a quick and devastating take down'. So, they imposed a false COVID “consensus” although many top doctors and scientists had publicly disagreed with it.
From 2020-2023, anyone who questioned the COVID-19 “consensus” was ridiculed, condemned, vilified, silenced, ostracized, and accused of being a “conspiracy theorist” who was causing “vaccine hesitancy” and “killing grandma”. Big Tech and social media banned top doctors and scientists who questioned the unprecedented lockdown of healthy people. Several MDs had their licenses threatened or lost their jobs.
Many proms, graduations, weddings, funerals, holiday dinners, and other large gathering were cancelled. Playgrounds were closed. In violation of The Nuremberg Code passed after the Holocaust of World War, many Americans were required to get the rushed, poorly-tested, gene-altering, experimental COVID-19 shots. II You’ve Been Vaccinated. Now Prove It. explained in New York in 2021, people couldn’t go to gyms, restaurants, theaters, Broadway shows, etc. unless they had COVID “passports” showing proof of vaccination.
Dr. Fauci declared that anyone who questioned him was questioning science because “I am science”!
Fauci under fire: Declares "I represent science" 11/20/21
With his Sunday retort “What happened on January 6th, Senator?” it appears to critics that Dr. Anthony Fauci has openly expressed what many of them suspected - that he is a partisan political player. Fauci’s comment was made in response to Republican Senator Ted Cruz’s tweet that Fauci should face prosecution for denying under oath that the U.S. helped fund gain of function research at China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology. As Doug McKelway reports, the comment has supercharged the animus between Fauci and his Republican critics.
Dr. Collins recently admitted that there was no scientific basis for the COVID policies.
Better late than never: former NIH director Francis Collins admits COVID mistakes 1/4/24 says:
As federal officials considered how the government should respond to an emerging pandemic in 2020, Francis Collins recalled last year, “we weren’t really considering the consequences” of extreme measures such as business shutdowns, school closures and stay-at-home orders. It was a startling admission from Collins, who played a major role in those conversations as director of the National Institutes of Health.
The Great Reset
Klaus Schwab of World Economic Forum is the author of COVID-19: The Great Reset published on 7/19/20. He proposed The Great Reset and told the world we had to accept a “new normal” because of COVID-19. How did he know COVID-19 was coming in time to write that book?
The WEF told us that in the “Great Reset” and “new normal”, by 2030 we will all be happy owning NOTHING and will rent everything (from whom?)! Presumably the 1% will own everything -- and will be even happier! Throughout history, people who owned NOTHING were called “slaves” or “serfs”. The video showing we “will own nothing and be happy” has been removed from the WEF site.
You’ll Own Nothing and Be Happy -- The Great Reset
Schwab bragged that the WEF’s “Young Global Leaders” had infiltrated half the world’s cabinets.

That will protect America from the treaty which has little chance of success now.
