This Friday is 21 Dec 2012. The date the Mayan Calendar Long Count ends. I am sure many people around the world have been looking forward to the day. Some in anticipation, some in fear, some couldn't care less...
The last few years, we have seen many doomsday "prophets" proclaiming the end of the world to be on this day. While I do not know what their agenda is for proclaiming this, I am sure some people would have profited from this. Just like the Y2K debacle, some people definitely profited a lot! Well... anyway, that's the past.
The end-of-the-world rumor is based on the claim that the ancient Mayans had predicted the end of the world in 2012, using an astronomical event, the galactic alignment, that is believed will occur at the end of the 13th Bak’tun in the Maya Long Count calendar (Dec. 21, 2012).
Well, if it really is the end of the world, Edgar Cayce would not have seen far into the future in the 38th century!
As John Major Jenkins, an American author and independent researcher, best known for his works that theorize certain astronomical and esoteric connections of the calendar systems used by the Maya civilization of pre-Columbian Mesoamerica, puts it:
On this day, during the winter solstice, a “galactic alignment” will occur when the sun intersects with the galactic equator. But first let's define what the Galactic Alignment is in astronomical terms. The Galactic Alignment is the alignment of the December solstice sun with the Galactic equator. This alignment occurs as a result of the precession of the equinoxes. Precession is caused by the earth wobbling very slowly on its axis and shifts the position of the equinoxes and solstices one degree every 71.5 years. Because the sun is one-half of a degree wide, it will take the December solstice sun 36 years to precess through the Galactic equator.
The precise alignment of the solstice point (the precise center-point of the body of the sun as viewed from earth) with the Galactic equator was calculated to occur in 1998 (Jean Meeus, Mathematical Astronomy Morsels, 1997).
Thus, the Galactic Alignment "zone" is 1998 +/- 18 years = 1980 - 2016. This is "era-2012."
This Galactic Alignment occurs approximately once every 26,000 years (25,920 to be precise according to David Wilcock's calculations)
Galactic Alignment Simplified
If you imagine our solar system as a bunch of peas on a plate, with a huge meatball in the center, imagine the Milky Way as a city-size pizza with the "Guiness World Book Record Meatball" in its center!
Prior to December 2012 we have been drifting on the top of the pizza, never really able to see the bottom. The plate and pizza are not parallel. They are moving at different angles. We've been drifting down, down, down... and on December 21st, 2012, we will be exactly level with the crust -- forming an "x" at the Galactic Equator where galactic gravity is the strongest. After 2012, if we are still here, we will be passing through the bottom zone, viewing the Milky Way pizza from the South.
Age of Aquarius
Esoterically, what this year signifies (if that's the right term) is the ending of the Piscean Age and the dawning of the Aquarian Age. Some astrologers say the Age of Aquarius actually begins in 2012. That’s because they believe the star Regulus in the constellation Leo the Lion marked the ancient border between the constellations Leo and Cancer. This star moves to within 30o of the September equinox point in 2012, meaning that Regulus leaves the sign Leo to enter the sign Virgo this year. Presuming equal-sized constellations in antiguity, that places the border of the constellations Pisces and Aquarius at 150o west of Regulus, or at the March equinox point. By this reckoning, the Age of Aquarius starts in 2012.

But again, although there is firm reckoning by many for the beginning of this astrological age, there is no agreement. While astrologers differ in their opinion about when the Age of Aquarius actually begins, one thing seems probable, 2012 does appears to be the mid-point.
But what really is the Aquarian Age?
Jesus referred to the beginning of the Aquarian Age in these words: 'And then the man who bears the pitcher will walk forth across an arc of heaven; the sign and signet of the Son of Man will stand forth in the eastern sky. The wise will then lift up their heads and know that the redemption of the earth is near.'” (Aquarian Gospel 157: 29, 30.) The Aquarian Age is pre-eminently a spiritual age, and the spiritual side of the great lessons that Jesus gave to the world may now be comprehended by multitudes of people, for the many are now coming into an advanced stage of spiritual consciousness; so with much propriety this book is called The Aquarian (or Spiritual) Gospel of Jesus, the Christ." — Dan Costian (Ph.D), Bible Enlightened (1995, 261-2). But I must add... the comprehension by multitudes of people may not necessarily come through the mainstream church as most of the original teachings are already "lost" to the mainstream when it was turned into religion and progressively over the centuries by translations and differing interpretations and political manipulation. Unfortunate, but true.
Apparently Age of Aquarius corresponds with the emerging Golden Age for humanity. In this Age, the old energies of suppression, dictatorship etc cannot be sustained. In this new age, the energies will demand that we are transparent in our dealings, that we show compassion for others. As we can see today, there has been many upheavals in the world. Many issues that have been swept under the carpet or hidden has been and are being forcefully brought out into the open in order for the healing to begin. Issues ranging from the micro level i.e. family relationships all the way up to the macro level i.e. financial & government corruption and transparency. How we deal with it depends on our personal choice and karma. But one thing is certain, once this is over, a new Golden Age begins as the Christ consciousness takes hold on Earth.
Lifting of the Quarantine
The date 21 Dec 2012 also marks the date when the quarantine that was imposed by the Guardians onto Earth will apparently be lifted. This does not mean that we will immediately have visitors from beyond landing on our planet. We are obviously not ready for such contact yet but we are being prepared for it. Unfortunately most of the subtle preparation being done by the media is on the negative side i.e. alien invasion. Fortunately there are also positive preparations being done though not given the proper media coverage. Oh well, nothing sells movies better I guest. Anyway, let's not kid ourselves any further... we are definitely NOT alone in this universe. Heck.. even the vatican has subtlety admitted that we are not alone. And some of our distant cousins from distant stars are already walking amongst us unknown to us. The major Governments in the world knows about them and have even been in contact. For us ordinary folks, well... those with the karma will meet them. Those without will not. But the next few decades are going to be really interesting as our distant cousins welcome us back to their fold...
