Security Token Validation Error with JWT token -- HDInsight

I created a new storage account and provisioned an HDInsight cluster on Windows Azure. However, when I try to run any command on Windows Azure Powershell related to the cluster, I get the following error: 

PS C:\> Get-AzureHDInsightCluster -Name $clusterName
Get-AzureHDInsightCluster : Request failed with code:Unauthorized
Content:<Error xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/windowsazure"
xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"><Code>AuthenticationFailed</Code><Message>A security token
validation error occured for the received JWT token.</Message></Error>
At line:1 char:1
+ Get-AzureHDInsightCluster -Name $clusterName
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [Get-AzureHDInsightCluster], HttpLayerException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Microsoft.Hadoop.Client.HttpLayerException,Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Management.HDInsight.C
   mdlet.PSCmdlets.GetAzureHDInsightClusterCmdlet

I'm completely new to HDInsight, but I ran a script before this command to add the Azure account, create variables for the subscription name, storage account name, and container name from this page.

Do you know what this error means? And how to fix it? I'm trying to run a script with Pig commands after following this website.

It looks like the PowerShell environment is not properly setup. You should add your Azure subscription first with GetAzureSubscription. See: http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/documentation/articles/install-configure-powershell/#Connect
