Pisces, the Dying God
Transition into the Aquarian Age
Pisces has been called the "dying god," where its sign opposite in the night sky is Virgo, or, the Virgin Mary. When Jesus was asked by his disciples where the next Passover would be, he replied to them:
Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you bearing a pitcher of water ... follow him into the house where he entereth in.
—?Jesus, Luke 22:10
This coincides with the changing of the ages, into the Age of Aquarius,[66] as the personification of the constellation of Aquarius is a man carrying pitchers of water.
Aquarius also has a double rulership: Saturn is the traditional ruler and Uranus is the modern ruler. Saturn presides over structure and form and the status quo. Because Saturn tends to be rather rigid it is often associated with the rigidity of religious doctrine.
