Could The Whole Internet Go Down?

Could The Whole Internet Go Down?

In this short video I explore the possibility that the whole Internet could go down at some point during our astrological Age of Air, an epoch characterised by the primacy of information technology. The two greatest libraries in history, the Great Library of Alexandria and Baghdad's House of Wisdom were both destroyed during previous Ages of Air. The Internet is the great library of our era: could it become a target during future armed conflicts?

Good sir, you have ELEVATED astro YouTube to a WHOLE NEW level. I landed up on the 4 part series with SJ Anderson, ended up binge watching all your videos at one go.

With a mix of Zoom interviews with guests, interesting b-roll of stock photos/videos, and indeed historical archives. All with a backdrop of generational cycles, what happened in history and what could possibly repeat. Your knowledge of geopolitical events outside the usual Western countries covered, is phenomenal.

Such a refreshing change from the usual astro channels. I hope going forward, more channels use this approach. More of mundane astro please, we all live in a connected world! It's only a matter of time before this channel blows up!

2020s will see a resurgence of interest in esoterica - astro, energy healing, and consciousness studies!

Namaste from India.

Well this makes me feel less terrible for refusing to part with 22 boxes of books after moving last month 😂

I am 84; if the Internet goes down, I have to stop giving away my books; but the energy for books is missing. Thanks for your Taurus Reading. Highly interesting! (My Ascendent). Will be ordering Aquarius(sun), if I can. Telephone consultations are too tiring for an 84-year-old. 🙏 Just had the craziest weather ever. 10 Minutes uninterrupted thunderstorm (no lightning that I saw). The church bells rang afterwords. Strange!!!

This would not be bad I believe our world was better without it

What about a big CME? Any astrological signatures for such an event?

[michellerenee]

Is this why I’ve been obsessed with buying astrology books?! To the tune of thousands of dollars!!

Hey dan, really enjoyed this, thank you.
Also did you watch the BBC opening ceremony of the commonwealth games a few weeks back? It was loaded! Images of saturn, sun, moon, taurus the bull, floating houses, tower of babel (spoken by commentators), industrial revolution and absolutely all sorts in 40min. Ushering in the new age was absolutely evident. A must watch matey! Your eye would be able to pick out more than mine.

Despite it being trickier for me to buy hardcopies (worsening eyesight and living in Italy), for the last few years I've been buying physical books rather than kindle for this exact reason. I only just discovered your channel, so I can't see yet whether you talk about the coming ecological crisis, but there are many people in communities such as Deep Adaptation who expect ecological and societal crisis, and this could easily lead to collapse of global connections including the internet. I do hope that we can avoid this... I worked as a tour guide in Rome for a number of years and as a pagan myself was very interested in the period of the fall of pagan Rome, and the ideological reasons the Christians destroyed all the books and knowledge.

love your videos. can’t find age of air vid.

Maybe it'd been good for the internet to go down (in a way that doesn't destroy us, but she's destroy the NSA and other jerks)

[michellerenee]

I’ve actually recently wanted to make sure that I have a science fiction and fantasy collection. Sad that I got rid of my Wheel of Time series. Off to half price books!! 😆

While I am not well versed in the physical process, there is another thing to consider. With the Solar activity, could the circuits be fried and affected the internet?

[janetcetera]

Dan, I don’t need any excuses to own more books than I already do 😅

[elizabethhaskett]

How would o e look up when the ages are? Is it determined by when Saturn and Jupiter make conjunctions in those signs?

... age, some 6500 years ago? Please advise?

I’m in rural mountains of unincorporated Los Angeles… light snow… nothing like the 80’s. A week of intermittent/no internet. Got power tho!

[xoxogemvenus]

Crazy. They’re trying to get the restrict act through.

I'd love it, but EVERYTHING is integrated now. Stores lose internet, you aren't buying food. I've literally seen it happen in a couple local stores. Anecdotal perhaps, but I'm sure it happens more than just those two places.

This whole exposition is very Mars in Gemini. Urgent!
What are your thoughts on this upcoming retrograde and it's relation to Uranus' time there the summer after the next US presidential election?

[ddixon]

I don't understand what you consider an 'Age' or your time frame. According to the movements pf the Synetic Vernal Point, Precesion on the Equinoxes and most esoteric texts, an Earth Age lasts ~2160 years making Gemini the prior
