Shrine of Aquarius

The Shrine of Aquarius is located on the northern wall of the Main Sanctuary near the Windows of Eternity (also known as the Mirrors of Eternity). This section of the Temple of Isis is dedicated to Isis of Ten Thousand Names, Goddess of the Aquarian Age. Olivia writes that the zodiac shrines are corresponded to rites found in the FOI liturgy book "Sophia, Cosmic Consciousness of the Goddess." The Shrine of Aquarius is dedicated to Amaterasu, Uzumi, Kwan Yin and the five manifestations of the Goddess Tara (Green, Blue, Yellow, Red and White). The ritual "Mystical Awakening of Aquarius and Juno" from "Sophia" is associated with this shrine.
