21 December 2012: What It
Really Means
By: Schwartzritter
Ever since the great surge of New Age philosophies and the
re-emergence of Neopaganism, which occurred in the late 1980’s and
early 1990’s, there has been much speculation as to the exact events
that would occur on the winter solstice of 2012. This date coincides
with the last day of the Mayan calendar and in the Mayan
chronometric scale, represents the end of the Fifth Age.
The current pop culture association with this date is an
interpretation of doomsday. Many New Age proponents believe that
some major cataclysm will occur on this day. The theories have
ranged from global thermonuclear war to ecological disaster
resulting from the inversion of Earth’s magnetic field (a.k.a. Pole
Shift) and the infamous (and clichéd) meteor strike. Regardless of
the supposed event, humanity dies, supposedly. Most of these
theories are expounded by people ranging from con artists and
crackpots to religious authorities attempting to play mankind’s
fears.
What really is so important about 21 December 2012? This date
marks the moment where the Solar System crosses the Galactic
Equator. This event occurs twice every 225~250 million years. Two
such crossing represents a Galactic Year. The timing of the Mayan
Calendar would suggest that this current crossing represents the
actual New Year mark and not the halfway point in the cycle. To put
the extreme rarity of this event into proper perspective, the last
two times this event occurred, the dinosaurs were the dominant
creatures on the planet. This crossing is no more mystical or
mysterious than our solstices, which are related events.
Another event, which is simultaneously occurring with this
equatorial crossing, is the transition of periods in the precession
of the equinoxes. The precession of the equinoxes is a cycle of
Earth wobbling on its axis 360 degrees. The precession of the signs
in the Zodiac is the interpretation of this event. This cycle takes
approximately 25,750~26,000 years to complete and is known as the
Platonic Year. It is the Platonic Year that the Mayan calendar
documents. While the natural sciences condemn mystical and occult
references, the Ages represented by the Zodiac signs that this cycle
has passed through are represented well, giving credence to the
theory of the Zodiac Ages. When an age transitions into another, the
paradigms of the old age inevitably collapse in lieu of the new
forms that occur within the latest age. The current transition is
from the sign of Pisces to the Sign of Aquarius. This means that
Piscean paradigms are usurped for Aquarian forms. The greatest
Piscean paradigm is the existence and dominance of Christianity and
Islam. The greatest example of the Aquarian paradigm is science.
Science has been working to overthrow these religions for centuries
and after the transition, the equilibrium point will be reached
where the Piscean archetypes will be on a downward slope until they
are destroyed.
How does this relate to the Galactic New Year? The energy of the
galactic core realigns everything that passes within the equator.
Any energy forms that are not conductive of the galactic ecosystem
will be neutralized and replaced with harmonious energy forms. The
effects of the age transition in the Platonic Year will likewise be
amplified. This means that the switch from Piscean to Aquarian
thought forms will be dramatic and drastic due to the energy from
the galactic core.
If any cataclysm does happen as a result of this event, it will
be caused by man. The possibilities lie primarily in the realm of
mass hysteria and mass insanity. The nature of the Abrahmic
religions make them prime candidates to receive the worst of this
paradigm shift as the concepts of Christianity and Islam cannot
exist in an Aquarian world. Judaism, which began in The Age of
Taurus, will also fare poorly during The Aquarian Age. These
mindsets are simply not compatible with the archetypical foundations
of the incoming era. Christians in particular are attempting to
astrally turn this date into a doomsday in order to fulfil the
failed prophecies in The Revelations. This is complicated by the
fact that Christianity is the most dominant religion on the planet
with a sickening number of 3 billion practitioners. While there will
be ramifications due to their massive influence on the universal
subconscious of humanity, their fears will only affect them as their
way of life cannot exist in an Aquarian world.
21 December 2012 is simply our calendar date for a naturally
occurring event in the galaxy. The reason the Old Gods are so
concerned with this is twofold. The first reason is Humanity has
never been through this event. The Old Gods are curious to see how
humanity reacts to the crossing. The second reason is that even with
the massive lifespan of the Gods, this event occurs rarely by their
conceptions of time. They are just as concerned and curious as to
the effects of the crossing as we are. Any fears should simply be
put aside as nonsense. Humanity should just sit back and ride it
out. The nature of the energies that are coming in will replace all
of the mess the Piscean Age has created. Aquarians will find this
new world and new age much more agreeable than what is currently
tolerated.
