It's an American Story: Celebrating the Aquarian Vision Through Black History/ African-American Heritage Month:

M Ruth McCants


In this very special episode I'm taking a look at the annual observance and celebration of "Black History Month" through zodiac sign of Aquarius.  The month of February was chosen as the time for remembering and celebrating the lives, and contributions of Americans who were and are descendants of African slaves.  Every group of people has an "origin story".

Abraham Lincoln as president during the American civil war,  would sign the "Emancipation Proclamation", which signaled a massive change in a fractured and torn country that had  come into being on the backs of  enslaved human beings.
