THE NEW CULTURE VISION Introduction

“If we make the old mistakes we will be rewarded by the old pain. But if we make the new effort, we can set up imperishable footings and bestow as a heritage the beginnings of a better way of life.”
  ~ Manly P. Hall

A society dominated by the beliefs of a single school of thought and compelled by the material status and wealth of its institutions, corporations and bureaucracies is of a dying fashion – if for no other reason than these things are passing away with the ending of the Pisces Age. However, in the newly presiding energy of Aquarius, forethought, intentionality and the realization of true Liberty lead the way. Society will be increasingly driven to recombine its previously scattered diversity, especially into decentralized and fluid forms…

We have indisputably arrived at a point in time where great change is a necessity. We can sit idly by, with the hope that our woes are ultimately resolved in a manner satisfying to our individual ideal. Or we can consciously meet the spirit of change, empowered by our ability to give birth to new, Human-centric modes of social expression right now.

Consider that even in the midst of the world’s turmoil; the New Culture is increasingly visible. It can be seen in the myriads of individuals, groups and corporations embracing the new paradigm of true Human progress. True Human progress is progress that is both sustainable and actualized. (For, what is the meaning of intention, if your aim lacks the energy to follow your trajectory through?)

Why settle for anything less than what we know is possible? Why only dream of what Life could be like? Why let a longing for improvement burn unfulfilled in your Heart?

Toward this end we offer here on our New Culture site what was originally documented as the “Ouranos Plan”. The Plan is an intentional lifestyle solution based on dynamic, intelligent and creative social action.

What we present are significant alternatives to many of the fundamental aspects of modern social organization and cultural identity. We believe the answer to civilization’s present woes is to meet our past unconscious activity with a consciousness minded toward the potentials of the future. The further we can climb from the box of the past, in thought and system, the more liberated our horizons become. The time is now for progressive, collective redefinitions of the irresponsible and self-centered behaviors we’ve henceforth given too much power.
