The insistence that everything is getting better and better is typical

WWII.

One of the books on Revelation I read within living memory identifies
the Beast with all of modern learning and technology, but identifies
the second beast as the propaganda department and the Whore as
advertising. Since Trump's efforts appear to be aimed at, as Disney
has Stromboli saying, "pushing you in the public's eye", that would
make the Orange Taco -- the Whore of Babylon.

That 1925 article is the earliest reference to
the Age of Aquarius I've ever encountered.

 Also, we're about 25 years beyond the projected time.
 Personally, if /I/ were to interpret the 1000 years as many did in
1999, /I/ would place it in the 2030s, probably 2036 or 2039,
depending on when the cruciifixion occurred.

Um, I don't think it works that way.
The 'Age of Aquarius' is what happens when astrologers try to
interpret the precession of the equinoxes. It has nothing to
do with Christianity, and the 'ages' last about 2150  years.
The name is tied to what constellation is behind the sun when
it rises on the vernal equinox.
