Sometimes they blend sometimes the two are seriously incompatible, and not much happens that is lastingly memorable. Older generations will always be out of step with the next generation (sometimes 2) backward I guess.<br />Twilighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138621610593773784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-51886813297522791692014-03-03T22:28:06.554-06:002014-03-03T22:28:06.554-06:00Twilight, Venus was recorded by Frankie Avalon, no...Twilight, Venus was recorded by Frankie Avalon, not Paul Anka. I know because Frankie was my favorite in my early teens, we both came from Philadelphia and his aunt worked with my grandmother. When her daughter got married,granny took me to the wedding so that I could meet cousin Frankie, he even sang and played the trumpet.

I believe th...Give and take on this one, Twilight! I believe that the mid-1960s Uranus-Pluto conjunction was a "changer". The music reflected those times, too. There were various radical groups: black, hippie, gay, Vietnam war protests. I doubt that Joan Baez, Edwinn Starr, Credence Clearwater Revival, Bob Dylan, et al would have been popular without the Vietnam backdrop of the times.<br /><br />I agree that there is a distinctive generational effect...most of the older folks of the 1960s were either appalled or simply not in tune with the music of the youth.mike (again)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-11994203233686970112014-03-03T14:55:16.523-06:002014-03-03T14:55:16.523-06:00mike ~ It's not easy to differentiate between ...mike ~ It's not easy to differentiate between mundane astrological "atmosphere" of the times in question, and the natal generational astrological similarities of the young generations driving the music scenes is it though? It's that time lag thing, about how a generation with similar outer planet placements reacts to the mundane astro-atmosphere they find around late teens and twenties.<br /><br />We can see results and shifts, in hindsight, kind of. Nowadays, too, there's the strong element (stronger than ever before) of media pushing certain trends and burying certain others - reasons: which will bring in more $$$$$$$$$<br /><br />The kids born in the late 1990s when Neptune moved into Aquarius and Uranus was already there are likely to be the ones to bring a shift. Those born 1998 are 16-ish now, maybe in the next 5 years or a little more we'll see results. Uranus will be moving into Taurus then, ruled by Venus (music). Long time to wait!<br /><br /><br /> Twilighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138621610593773784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-7809375564554427402014-03-03T13:01:47.165-06:002014-03-03T13:01:47.165-06:001952 to 1957 brought a new musical sound and intro...1952 to 1957 brought a new musical sound and introduced the beginning of rock-and-roll...this coincides with Uranus in Cancer squaring Neptune in Libra those same years. The mid-60s created a multitude of new music, which coincides with the conjunction of Uranus-Pluto in Virgo, both sextile Neptune in Scorpio. The disco style started in 1972 with Pluto's entry to Libra.<br /><br />Interesting to note that reality TV programming began in the late 70s and early 80s, which when the three planets were equally spaced...Pluto in Libra, Uranus in Scorpio, and Neptune in Sagittarius, all in the last decants. Music wasn't as radical and became softer, with many motion picture themes playing.<br /><br />The 1990s brought lots of pop, hip hop, rap, urban, and fusion music. These were the Saturn-Uranus-Neptune conjunct in Capricorn years.<br /><br />We are currently in Uranus sq Pluto, so music is probably swerving now. The next Uranus square Neptune will perhaps bring a major shift.mikenoreply@blogger.com
