At that time, humanity was leaving the Age of Gemini and entering the Age of Taurus; a time in which we lived in accord with Natural Law and in harmony with all of creations creatures. It was an era of peace and prosperity.
After the Age of Taurus came the Age of Aries in which war became hip. By then, the patriarchy had enough of a hold on everyone that books were burned, women and animals were enslaved, and ‘conquering’ ones neighbors was what made life worth living (for the men, at least).
Christ ushered in the Age of Pisces, setting up the paradigm we continue to try to free ourselves from even to this day; that of domination/submission, good/evil, fracturedness/wholeness, separation/oneness.
