What is undertaken in this study is an attempt to detect hope in New Age spir- ituality by referring to Marilyn Ferguson’s book The Aquarian Conspiracy. Apply- ing H. G. Wells’s idea of the open conspiracy, Ferguson combines the Aquarian conspiracy with the hope for “awakening of humanity”. The conspiracy she writes about consists in popularization of new consciousness, a new paradigm of reason- ing, which should bring about a transformation of the world. As Ferguson claimed, the mood of hope and optimism begins to permeate various areas of human life (science, politics, medicine, education). The author also focuses on the issue of pri- vatization of hope in the New Age, 35 years after Ferguson’s book was published.
