Aquarian Gospel
It’s time for rebirth. It’s spring on Earth.
Leave the jangly world behind.
Tarot and I Ching and all those magical things
They’re all inside your mind.
I’ve got a dream. There’s room for you.
If we all work together we can make it come true.
The time’s gonna come when it’ll be too late to run.
You’re going to have to make a stand.
Well one and one is two and when I’m one with you
We could all take another man’s hand.
So if you know the truth and you want a little more
You got to follow The Way through perception’s door.
Go and seek a sage. It’s time to turn the page.
The clock is in the eleventh hour.
Turn your face to the wind and take a look within
The Secret of the Golden Flower.
When the flower grows soft harmony flows
And the words rush forth from the East and the North.
Watch time’s burning sands as they flow through your hands
And plunge into the crystal sea.
See the eagle’s flight reflect the light
Of the sun, on the sea, on me.
And close your tired eyes. The dragon flies.
And a soft rain falls as a new world calls.
It’s time for rebirth. It’s spring on Earth.
Leave the jangly world behind.
Tarot and I Ching and all those magical things
Are all inside your mind.
So close your tired eyes. The dragon flies.
And a soft rain falls as a new world calls.

NOTES: I wrote this song in 1968 for my dear friends Jose and Miriam Arguelles after completing a 6 week seminar on the philosophy and psychology of the I Ching at their home in Woodland taught by Dr. Khigh Dhiegh who at that time was the head of the International I Ching Institute, a professor of drama, and an accomplished actor.
