Mayan End Age 12-21-2012
926 days, 3 hrs, 2 mins, 50 secs left for Age of
Transition to begin!
Mayan Calendar "Both the Hopis and Mayans recognize
that we are approaching the end of a World Age... In
both cases, however, the Hopi and Mayan elders do
not prophesy that everything will come to an end.
Rather, this is a time of transition from one World
Age into another. The message they give concerns
our making a choice of how we enter the future
ahead. Our moving through with either resistance or
acceptance will determine whether the transition will
happen with cataclysmic changes or gradual peace
and tranquility. The same theme can be found
reflected in the prophecies of many other Native
American visionaries from Black Elk to Sun Bear." —
Joseph Robert Jochmans
"Amazingly, there is a cultural/prophetic context for
the arising of this Feminine-based planetary
transformation that is underway. The Mayan 2012
prophecies foretold of this shift of planetary
stewardship into the hands of the Feminine. In a
personal communication with this author, Nicaraguan
Mayan Grandmother Flordemayo, of the International
Council of 13 Indigenous Grandmothers, explained
that the final glyph (pictogram) from the “Mayan
Story of Creation” (the Dresden Codex) shows the
Reawakening of the Feminine." — Vikki Hanchin
"The coming of the (feminine) Redeemer is an
'eschatological event,' 'the turning-point of the ages'
" — Bultmann
Cusp Of Great Cycle
We are living today in the cusp of the Mayan end times, the
end of a galactic day or time period spanning thousands of
years. One galactic day of 25,625 years is divided into five
cycles of 5,125 years.
The Great Cycle of the Mayan Long Count calendar ends on
the winter solstice of 2012 A.D. Following Mayan concepts
of cyclic time and World Age transitions, this is as much
about beginnings as endings. In fact, it was considered by
the ancient Mayans to signify the creation of a new World
Age. We are almost at the end of the fifth and final 5,125
year cycle!
Why is everyone talking about the year 2012?
The Solstice on December 21, 2012—precisely at 11:11 AM
Universal Time—marks the completion of the 5,125 year
Great Cycle of the Ancient Maya Long Count Calendar.
Rather than being a linear end-point, this cycle that is
closing is naturally followed by the start of a new cycle.
What this new cycle has in store for humanity is a mystery
that has yet to unfold...
2012 is also considered the completion of the 26,000 year
Precession of the Equinoxes cycle, and some say it also
signifies the end of a 104,000 year cycle.
The recent "2012" movie serves to alert a targeted 140
million people, in case they too haven't already heard the
news. Unfortunately, however, the movie does a dis-service
because it distorts the message of this ancient prophecy by
associating it with fear and destruction, as depicted by the
movie's global disaster scenario, rather than the themes of
transformation and renewal the prophecy is actually based
in.
The 2012 date indeed marks the completion of this World
Age Cycle. Rather than something to fear, we can
understand the 2012 prophecy as signaling us that we need
to awaken and realize that these times on Earth are
auspicious; we are living in land-mark times in the history
of our planet. We are collectively in a cross-roads moment
that is calling out to us to participate in our fullest capacity.
We are each being summoned to bring our inspiration and
empowerment to the fore, as we must all take our places in
transforming our human culture to be one of Harmony—
with ourselves, with each other and with all of Nature.
Together we are in a great initiation process, living in times
of unprecedented challenge, transformation and
opportunity. This planetary moment has never existed
before as it does right now. Our human population is
climbing off the charts, accelerating by the day, as is our
environmental crises and the vast whole-system struggles
of people worldwide, both physically and spiritually. The old
world mentality, founded in separation, greed, ignorance,
and unconscious consumer materialism, has reached
dangerous peaks. Simultaneously, there has never been so
much possibility at our fingertips as there is right now. A
new paradigm is trying to emerge in our world, through our
hearts and minds, like a flower trying to grow through the
cracks in the cement sidewalk. New comprehensions and
new solutions are emerging in our collective journey—from
new sciences, to new economic models, new healing
modalities, new energy technologies, new educational
models, new forms of conflict resolution, etc. These times
of crisis are unifying us and catalyzing us to awaken to our
personal and collective responsibilities in this one planetary
equation.
As we perceive the 2012 completion date as a reminder to
us from the Ancients that right here and now we are living
in precious times, we can realize how critical it is that we
align together in respect for life, becoming more and more
conscious of how our intentions and actions affect the
Whole. This is an important theme of this prophecy:
Becoming Conscious of All that has been Unconscious. It is
time to see and know and become aware of how we can
participate directly in this great transformation process,
inside of ourselves and in our shared world, from the
energies we transmit through our feelings and intentions,
to the details of our lifestyle choices.
The New Cycle that is to emerge is founded on us
awakening to the beauty and responsibility of our
interconnectedness. Every one of us has a piece in this
cosmic puzzle, and we must help each other find our
heart's guidance in these mysterious times. As we
recognize we are in a Global Healing Crisis, we can shake
off the wounded victim mentality, and arise as Medicine
Warriors, here to do the necessary work to help lay the
ground for a New Era to root, conscious of our obligations
to future generations.
Carlos Barrios, who was trained as an Ajq'ij in the Maya
tradition, has this to share in regards to 2012:
"Our planet can be renewed or ravaged. Now is the time to
awaken and take action... The prophesized changes are
going to happen, but our attitude and actions determine
how harsh or mild they are.
"This is a crucially important moment for humanity and for
earth. Each person is important. If you have incarnated into
this era, you have spiritual work to do balancing the
planet...The greatest wisdom is in simplicity. Love, respect,
tolerance, sharing, gratitude, forgiveness. It's not complex
or elaborate. The real knowledge is free. It's encoded in
your DNA. All you need is within you. Great teachers have
said that from the beginning. Find your heart, and you will
find your way."

Map of Mayan Civilization centers Is 2012 going to be the
"End of The World?"
No, not in terms of the complete destruction of the Earth
and some kind of annihilation scenario. 2012 is not bringing
the end of the planet.
When we contemplate the expression "end of the world" let
us realize the term "world" can refer to a cycle; a period of
time; a world age era. Therefore 2012 is signaling the
completion of one World Age Cycle, transiting into an
emerging New World Age to come.
It is said that the world we are ending is the one that is
dominated by materialism and ego consciousness, therefore
it may be that the world to follow will be founded on
different values that honor the spirit of the interdependence
of all of life.
There are ideas in the collective mind that assert that 2012
is bringing the "end of the world as we know it," which may
be linked with its other association of heralding "the end of
linear time," and no one can say how valid these claims
may be. However, based on the complex situation we are in
as a planet, no one can predict the longevity of our modern
world with all of its technological dependencies and
unsustainable customs. Likewise, the more conscious we
become of the non-linear, synchronistic nature of existence,
the more rapidly we may indeed evolve beyond the linear
time paradigm.
In regards to the ever-increasing attention on the
December 21, 2012 date, the living Maya of Guatemala
urgently want it to be known that their ancient prophecies
have been distorted and misportrayed as doomsday
predictions. They do not advocate all the fear and hysteria
that is being generated by the sensationalized 2012
rumors, and they want people to be aware that most of the
2012 (misinformation being put out is not sourced from the
Maya or their calendars whatsoever, even though it may
appear to be associated with them.
In regards to the popular fascination with the possible "end
of the world" cataclysm scenario in 2012, it is important to
understand that these modern fantasies projected from our
collective psyche are reflecting our internal process of
fearing how out of harmony with nature we are collectively
living. There is a sense of an impending retaliation from
nature that will come, as a great punishment upon our
misguided human world.
While it is clear we are living in times of great uncertainty
and great imbalance, we need to realize that terrorizing
ourselves by energizing fear-based rumors does not assist
us in rising to the great challenges we face. Fear is a primal
universal human reality, based on understanding how
vulnerable we actually are, yet we need to understand that
if we believe in all the fear thoughts, we can easily become
shut down, delusional or reactionary in ways that feed the
fear and lead us further into darkness.
In this time of prophecy, we need to move from motivating
ourselves not from fear, but from awareness. To navigate
these critical times on earth, in addition to our discernment
and our intuition, we must find our hearts and follow their
inspiration, for they are our purest guides and can help us
tune into our unique path of service.
When we contemplate what the world might be like beyond
2012, let us be clear that no one can predict the specifics of
how things may appear as we enter this new cycle, or
whether the transformations still to come may emerge
gradually or swiftly. Everything depends on how conscious
we can become as a species, and how we all contribute to
this process of awakening our human potential. The details
of how this new era may actually manifest is up to the
merits of our collective creativity and the possible
breakthroughs which can unfold through our
resourcefulness and ingenuity.
Carlos Barrios, from the Eagle Clan of the Mam Maya of
Guatemala shares in regards to 2012:
"The world will not end. It will be transformed... Everything
will change...Change is accelerating now, and it will
continue to accelerate...If the people of the earth can get to
this 2012 date in good shape, without having destroyed too
much of the Earth, we will rise to a new, higher level. But
to get there we must transform enormously powerful forces
that seek to block the way...Humanity will continue, but in
a different way. Material structures will change. From this
we will have the opportunity to be more human..."
What is supposed to happen in 2012?
An important point made by Mayan Ajq'ij Carlos Barrios, is
that in regards to the warnings from the ancients of
possible catastrophies yet to come, it is critical we realize
that it is within our power to change the outcome. He says
it is within our power to prevent the worst case selfdestruction scenarios from happening, and instead rise to a
new level of evolution.
As Mr. Barrios shares: "This is the time people need to
know what is the purpose of their own lives. This is a
dangerous time because we can go to the next step, to the
transition, to the fusion of the polarities, or it is a time
when we can be destroyed. This materialistic way of life, all
this business about economic and social position in the
world, it needs to change and the people need to go inside
themselves in order to know what they are and to find
harmony with the mother earth, with human beings, with
their brothers, with the animals, with the plants. It's an
important time because we are in the moment of the
prophesies and humanity can be destroyed or we can be
saved, all together."
In this process of taking our power, it is important that we
take our attention off of the 2012 date as being some linear
point in the future that some event is going to happen that
determines our fate. The reality is we are on a journey,
right now, through the shifting of world age cycles. We
have to understand this is a PROCESS we are now in, not a
product that will necessarily arrive on a particular day and
time. As is obvious, focusing on future projections is a
distraction to this moment and its opportunities. While
maintaining awareness of the larger context of this time of
prophecy, we know that this here and now is where our life
is playing out; rather than projecting imaginations into the
future, this is the moment of empowerment.
Also, in a broader sense, if we contemplate the theme of
Apocalypse that is being associated with the 2012
prophecy, we can learn a lot by looking into the original
meaning of the word Apocalypse: Revealing of that which
has been hidden; lifting of the veil; uncovering. We can see
this phenomena in our world as the covers are being lifted,
the veils are thinning, and we are being shown many
dimensions that have previously been hidden. The
corruption and insanity within ourselves and those in
positions of power in the world is being rapidly exposed, as
is the profound and untapped depths of beauty and wisdom
living within our own hearts now revealing itself!"

Ancient Mayan Glyph showing
the transfer of the Staff of
Power to the Spirit of the
Feminine Ancient Prophecies about the Transfer of
Power from the Masculine to the Feminine
"Amazingly, there is a cultural/prophetic context for the
arising of this Feminine-based planetary transformation
that is underway. The Mayan 2012 prophecies foretold of
this shift of planetary stewardship into the hands of the
Feminine. In a personal communication with this author,
Nicaraguan Mayan Grandmother Flor de mayo, of the
International Council of 13 Indigenous Grandmothers,
explained that the final glyph (pictogram) from the “Mayan
Story of Creation” (the Dresden Codex) shows the
Reawakening of the Feminine.
The “Mayan Story of Creation” tells about our current
timeframe of history. The Mayan Calendar ends December
21, 2012, and a new Mayan Calendar count begins. The
significance of this Calendar end-date is that a 26,000 year
astronomic cycle ends and begins a new, and creates a
grand opportunity for transformation of humanity’s
consciousness is to occur. This story is shown in pictorial
glyphs; and the final glyph of this Dresden Codex depicts
our current time. According to Grandmother Flor de mayo,
this final glyph shows the reawakening of the Spirit of the
Feminine, and the transfer of the staff of power from the
masculine to the feminine at this timeframe in history.
Flordemayo explained that this reawakening and this
transfer of the staff of power are occurring now, as we
approach the 2012 end of the Mayan Calendar."

What have the Hopis, Mayans, and other Native
American people forseen?
Mayan Wheel crop circle August 2004 (Photo by Lucy
Pringle)
Both the Hopis and Mayans recognize that we are
approaching the end of a World Age... In both cases,
however, the Hopi and Mayan elders do not prophesy that
everything will come to an end. Rather, this is a time of
transition from one World Age into another. The message
they give concerns our making a choice of how we enter
the future ahead. Our moving through with either
resistance or acceptance will determine whether the
transition will happen with cataclysmic changes or gradual
peace and tranquility. The same theme can be found
reflected in the prophecies of many other Native American
visionaries from Black Elk to Sun Bear.
This concept that we can make choices concerning our
future destinies is one found not only in Native American
prophecies but is really an essential ingredient in all true
prophetic pronouncements. True prophecy is meant to be a
reflection on the hidden natures and motivations of human
behavior, both individually and collectively, as well as the
future options based on the human ability to make a
choice. True prophecy is thus more than merely a forecast.
Its purpose is to provide the lesson that is to be learned
from a potential future prognostication so that, if possible,
the lesson is accepted and processed beforehand. Thus the
course of the future can actually be changed, and a
different pathway of prophesied events can be manifested
into reality.
In this context, the period of time between now and the
year 2012, with 2000 as the benchmark, appears to be
shaping up into a decisive time period when important
choices will be made and when any number of timelines for
the future are possible. True prophecy is our guide to
determine what those different timelines are and how we
can make the right choices.
TOP 10 PROPHECIES FOR THE YEAR 2000

Aligning With the Spirit of the Maya Calendar EndDate 2012
by Dwayne Edward Rourke
January 1, 2000
A great turning of the Gregorian calendar wheel has
brought us to the threshold of a new millennium.
Throughout the planet, people are filled with the sort of
expectancy, excitement and anxiety such a threshold
evokes. However, if any of us are looking to the calendar
itself for guidance as to how to align with the spirit of this
new time, we will likely be disappointed. Very little is
provided there, other than a rather utilitarian segmentation
of time into years, months and days. In contrast, the
workings of a sacred calendar such as that found
throughout Mesoamerica and especially in those areas
inhabited by traditional Mayan people, provide a wealth of
symbolism able to empower its adherents with insight and
energy.
Clearly, all calendars throughout the world are arbitrary
man-made constructions. Generally, they are based on
alignment with particular celestial phenomena such as the
solar or lunar year. Mayan calendars are no exception and
currently the Mayan calendar tradition calls attention to the
day we call December 21 , 2012. The Maya have been
aware for hundreds of years that on that Winter solstice
day, a unique astronomical event will occur: a very rare
conjunction of the Sun with the ecliptic of the Milky Way
galaxy....
In the direction EAST, universally acknowledged as the
place of new beginnings, the Maya place the hieroglyph
CHICCHAN (pronunciation: cheek'chan). CHICCHAN is the
serpent mind, the mind that is constantly renewed and
regenerated, through a process of shedding what no longer
serves us. The physical body itself can be seen as an
evolutionary skin periodically released, as one life ends and
another begins. It is a body fueled ultimately by a form of
solar energy the Maya call kultunlilni. Kultunlilni is the vital
life force empowering all human growth and development.
This crucial life-force is the same as what is known in Hindu
cosmology as the serpent power: kundalini. Kundalini is the
great evolutionary force making of each body and its
occupant, a potentially powerful source of solar wisdom.
Important for us to remember, however, is that this
primary, very intimate and very powerful source of wisdom
is only accessible to the extent that we are able to hear
what our bodies, as carriers of its sacred gift, are actually
telling us. Inevitably in this process, we turn to those with
whom we feel a strong attraction or affinity. "

Temple of Kukulkan: In the 1980s, Chichen
Itza began to receive an influx of visitors on
the day of the spring equinox. Today several
thousand show up to see the light-andshadow effect on the Temple of Kukulcan in
which the feathered serpent god supposedly
can be seen to crawl down the side of the
pyramid. "A serrated line of seven
interlocking triangles (chakras) gives the
impression of a long tail leading downward to
the stone head of the serpent Kukulkan
(Kundalini), at the base of the stairway."
(Enlarged photo shows Serpent and trailing
tail during the spring equinox.)
Temple of Kukulkan (Serpent)
"Quetzalcoatl taught the ancients all the necessary skills to
advance their civilization, from mathematics and science to
agriculture and astronomy, as well as the famous Mayan
calendrical formulae which predicts the end of the world to
be December 21st 2012. He taught the people to live in
peace and then moved on disappearing across the sea, but
he promised he would someday return. Unfortunately for
the ancient inhabitants of Mexico they mistook the arrival of
the Spanish conquistadors and Cortez in 1519 as
Quetzalcaotl's return, bringing about their tragic doom.
Accepting them with open arms and treating them with
utmost reverence the ancient people expected their newly
arrived god to bestow great benevolence upon them.
Instead the Spanish invaders brought nothing but greed
and brutality for their trusting hosts.
The name Quetzalcoatl (ket-tsul'kwot-ul) means "plumed or
feathered serpent". We must certainly then mention the
great ancient city of Chichen Itza on Yucatan peninsula in
Mexico. There, twice a year, an amazing spectacle related
to the feathered serpent god takes place:
"The Temple of Kukulkan (the Feathered Serpent God, also
known as Quetzalcoatl) is the largest and most important
ceremonial structure at Chichen Itza. This ninety-foot tall
pyramid was built during the eleventh to thirteenth
centuries directly upon the multiple foundations of previous
temples. The pyramid is a store-house of information on
the Mayan calendar.... The northern stairway was the
principal sacred path leading to the summit. At sunset on
the vernal and autumnal equinoxes, an interplay between
the sun's light and the edges of the stepped terraces on the
pyramid creates a fascinating—and very brief—shadow
display upon the sides of the northern stairway. A serrated
line of seven interlocking triangles (chakras) gives the
impression of a long tail leading downward to the stone
head of the serpent Kukulkan (Kundalini), at the base of
the stairway." (Linda Casselman)
So then, on these two very important dates, the vernal and
autumnal equinoxes, it appears that Quetzalcoatl is indeed
present among his people as the shadow of the serpent
moves along the steps of the Pyramid of Kulkulkan.
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"This Power is placed in the triangular bone which is called
as sacrum, which means Greeks knew about this center.
They very well knew about it, that’s why they called it
sacred, sacrum. In many countries there has been a
manifestation that they know about this particular power.
I happened to go to Colombia where I collected an
authentic antique copy of the antique necklace. The
necklace had at its bottom a Kundalini and even the
earrings had the Kundalini, but, surprisingly, it was from
the Indians of America, though it is now kept in the
museum in Colombia. It was in America that people knew
about Kundalini, definitely absolutely in three and a half coil
they had done this pattern very well. Is very surprising that
it was done even before Columbus came here."

Serpent Mound and associated
constellations Draco and the Little
Dipper. Aerial photo Great Serpent Mound
A most fascinating ancient Native American archaeological
site found in Ohio, USA, called the "Great Serpent Mound",
features an undulating snake's body, its coiled tail
reminiscent of the Kundalini lying dormant in the sacrum.
In its mouth appears an egg, symbol of the potential
actualization of Second Birth.
Is it possible, then, that the ancient Native American People
were worshiping the Divine Feminine and were deeply
aware of the symbolic, spiritual significance of the Serpent
Power and the Primordial Egg?
Although scholars are uncertain as to the precise
significance of this Great Serpent Mound, it is, however,
highly likely that this site was revered by American Indians
as the sacred representation of Kundalini awakening.
Other sources offer added information on the Great Serpent
Mound:
The Serpent Mound "The Great Serpent Mound has been
classified with a large collection of North American
prehistoric earthen mounds extending from the East Coast
to the Mississippi and beyond. This particular work,
however, is distinguished from the countless other mounds
and earthen structures throughout the eastern United
States in that its design can be dated to a period about
5,000 years ago. Only Watson Brake, a group of mounds in
Louisiana discovered in the last decade of the twentieth
century, can rival its antiquity. But to my knowledge,
nothing in the Americas compares with the Serpent Mound
in terms of the precise astronomic, arithmetic, geometric,
and spiritual knowledge it embodies...
Whatever its origin, properly understood, the symbolism of
the stellar serpent contained in the Great serpent Mound
may be viewed as a golden thread running through all the
great religious systems of the world and potentially
functioning as a key to their secrets. The serpent image
itself is a compacted seed of light, a bearer of all
knowledge. Like the worm of the mythical phoenix, the
shape is which is familiar yet forgotten, the Great Serpent’s
destiny is to be recognized as a harbinger of light,
ultimately to be reinstated to its true fullness of form,
dominating the landscape and politics of the human race. It
would be the first of the apocalyptic “seals” to be opened,
aptly called the Great Seal.; these auguring a time when
peace and prosperity will once again rule the Earth." (Ross
Hamilton, The Mystery of the Serpent Mound: In Search of
the Alphabet of the Gods)
"The Great Serpent Mound, in Adams County, Ohio, USA, is
considered to be the world's largest serpent effigy. The
mound is a quarter of a mile long and five feet high, and it
was originally much higher."[1]
"The Great Serpent Mound continues to wind its quartermile length along an Ohio hilltop...By the end of the
nineteenth century, archaeologists were able to show that
the mounds had in fact been built by Native American
civilizations many centuries before-a-long-lost-civilization
such as Greece, Persia, Holy Land or mythical island of
Atlantis."[2]
"...the two structures [Stonehenge and the Great Serpent
Mound in the USA] share the same timeline. From carbon
dating in and around Stonehenge, the Council for British
Archaeology (CBA) gives an early date for the core of
Stonehenge at 3,000 B.C.E. or 5,000 years ago. The design
of Serpent Mound was conceived about 5,000 years ago as
well-and is therefore among the oldest of earth and stone
works in North America—or in fact the world. In this,
Stonehenge and Serpent Mound are coeval. That time
period is referred to in North American archaeology as
being of the "Archaic Period" (approximately 6000 B.C.E. to
1000 B.C.E.)

Kundalini envisioned as Goddess or Serpent
“Kundalini literally means coiled. In Indian yoga, a
"corporeal energy" - an unconscious, instinctive or libidinal
force or Shakti, lies coiled at the base of the spine. It is
envisioned either as a goddess or else as a sleeping serpent
hence a number of English renderings of the term such as
'serpent power'. The Kundalini resides in the sacrum bone
in three and a half coils and has been described as a
residual power of pure desire.
The Yogatattva Upanishad mentions four kinds of yoga, of
which laya-yoga involves Kundalini.
Sri Ramana Maharshi maintained that the Kundalini energy
is nothing but the natural energy of the Self, where Self is
the universal consciousness (Paramatma) present in every
being, and that the individual mind of thoughts cloaks this
natural energy from unadulterated expression. Advaita
teaches that Self-realization, enlightenment, Godconsciousness, nirvana and Kundalini awakening are all the
same thing, and self-inquiry meditation is considered a very
natural and simple means of reaching this goal.
Sir John Woodroffe (pen name Arthur Avalon) was one of
the first to bring the notion of Kundalini to the West. As
High Court Judge in Calcutta, he became interested in
Shaktism and Hindu Tantra. His translation of and
commentary on two key texts was published as The
Serpent Power. Woodroffe rendered Kundalini as "Serpent
Power" for lack of a better term in the English language but
"kundala" in Sanskrit means "coiled".”
Wikipedia
The Mysterious Kundalini
"Kundalini, the serpent power or mystic fire, is the
primordial energy or Sakti that lies dormant or sleeping in
the Muladhara Chakra, the center of the body. It is called
the serpentine or annular power on account of serpentine
form. It is an electric fiery occult power, the great pristine
force which underlies all organic and inorganic matter.
Kundalini is the cosmic power in individual bodies. It is not
a material force like electricity, magnetism, centripetal or
centrifugal force. It is a spiritual potential Sakti or cosmic
power. In reality it has no form. The Sthula Buddhi and
mind have to follow a particular form in the beginning
stage. From this gross form, one can easily, understand the
subtle formless Kundalini. Prana, Ahamkara, Buddhi,
Indriyas, mind, five gross elements, nerves are all the
products of Kundalini.
It is the coiled-up, sleeping Divine Sakti that lies dormant
in all beings. You have seen in the Muladhara Chakra that
there is Svayambhu Linga. The head of the Linga is the
space where Sushumna Nadi is attached to the Kanda. This
mysterious Kundalini lies face downwards at the mouth of
Sushumna Nadi on the head of Svayambhu Linga. It has
three and a half coils like a serpent. When it is awakened, it
makes a hissing sound like that of a serpent beaten with a
stick, and proceeds to the other Chakra through the
Brahma Nadi, which is also called Chitra Nadi within
Sushumna. Hence Kundalini is also called Bhujangini,
serpent power. The three coils represent the three Gunas of
Prakriti: Sattva, Rajas and Tamas, and the half represents
the Vikritis, the modification of Prakriti.
June 10,2010
Kundalini is the Goddess of speech and is praised by all.
She Herself, when awakened by the Yogin, achieves for him
the illumination. It is She who gives Mukti and Jnana for
She is Herself that. She is also called Sarasvati, as She is
the form of Sabda Brahman. She is the source of all
Knowledge and Bliss. She is pure consciousness itself. She
is Brahman. She is Prana Sakti, the Supreme Force, the
Mother of Prana, Agni, Bindu, and Nada. It is by this Sakti
that the world exists. Creation, preservation and dissolution
are in Her. Only by her Sakti the world is kept up. It is
through Her Sakti on subtle Prana, Nada is produced. While
you utter a continuous sound or chant Dirgha Pranava !
(OM), you will distinctly feel that the real vibration starts
from the Muladhara Chakra. Through the vibration of this
Nada, all the parts of the body function. She maintains the
individual soul through the subtle Prana. In every kind of
Sadhana the Goddess Kundalini is the object of worship in
some form or the other."
Kundalini Yoga, Sri Swami Sivananda
The power of Kundalini is the evolutionary force,
residing at the base of the spine
"When the Kundalini is awakened, it rises through and
vitalizes all the chakras present in a human body, thus
bringing spiritual knowledge, mystical vision, psychic
powers, and finally enlightenment.
When the power of Kundalini rises through the different
chakras and reaches the highest one, the practitioner
enjoys the bliss of Samadhi. Kundalini Yoga is the
technology, art and science enabling a person to allow and
utilize his or her own power of creativity for the faster
effect in healing, consciousness and other goals.
Shakti denotes force, power or energy and is the Hindu
concept or personification of God`s female aspect. Shakti is
sometimes referred to as `The Divine Mother` and
represents the active, dynamic principles of feminine
power.
The power of Kundalini involves two kinds of energy. One
which is the air energy, which is referred to as chi, or ki, or
prana, and then there`s also the Kundalini Shakti energy or
the energy of cosmic consciousness. This Shakti otherwise
lies inactive in the spine`s lower end, and is frequently
pictured as a sleeping, coiled serpent."

Predictions about the Spiritual Mother
In a book published in 1887 titled “The Mystery of the
Ages” by Marie, Countess of Caithness (Page 316-317) the
following prediction appears:- “It was generally considered,
at the turn of the next century, that the next Divine
incarnation was about to come to earth and would be
female, the advent of Divine Wisdom, or Theo-Sophia, and
that the present age would be the age of making known all
that which has been kept secret from the beginning.”
This is an extract from the Nadigranth compiled by Mr
Shantaram Athvale. The Nadigranth was originally written
in Sanskrit 2000 years back by the ancient astrologer
Bhrigumuni and later updated and translated into Marathi
and titled the Kak Nadi by Kakayyar Bhujander who was a
great astrologer and seeker who lived nearly 300 years ago
in India. In this particular extract Shantaram Athvale refers
to the writings from Kak Nadi written by Kakayyar
Bhujander:
“While Jupiter is in Pisces a great Yogi will incarnate on the
Earth. By 1970 it will have become quite evident to many
people that a new era will have started. Human life will
undergo a complete revolution. This Yogi will be the
Incarnation of Parabrahma and will have all the divine
powers.
By the new method of yoga devised by the great Yogi,
human beings will be able to attain the joy of Moksha
within one lifetime. While living ordinary lives people will
achieve Yoga – Union with God. In the end all the nations
of the world will come together with the feeling of oneness.
There will be a great international conference in a big city
of the world. The whole of the humanity will understand the
importance of prayer and all the nations will unite together.
Due to new scientific discoveries science and religions
would become one. With the help of science the existence
of God and the Soul could be proved. The veil of ignorance
and Maya would be drawn aside and Brahmananda, Moksha
which could previously only be attained by yogis as a result
of very hard work and severe penance would become easily
available to many human beings.”
William Blake (28 Nov 1757-12 Aug 1827) gives us this
prophetic poem titled “To Morning.” Seemingly it is an
invocation to what he perceived as the feminine aspect of
the Divine, whom would facilitate the dawning of a new age
and the unlocking of Heaven on Earth.
“O Holy Virgin, Clad in purest white Unlock heaven’s golden
gates and issue forth Awake the dawn that sleeps, that
sleeps in heaven Let light rise from the chambers of the
East”
C.S Lewis (1898-1963) in his book the Great Divorce
describes some kind of approaching procession of great
joyousness. “If I could remember their singing and write
down the notes, no man who read that score would ever
grow sick or old. Between them went musicians: and after
this a lady in whose honour this was being done” and
“Every young man or boy that met her became her son”
further “Every girl that met her became her daughter” and
“There are those that steal other peoples children. But her
motherhood was of a different kind. Those on whom it fell
went back to their natural parents loving them more. In her
they became themselves. And now the abundance of life
she has in Christ from the Father flows over into them.”
and also...”Redeemed humanity is still young, it has hardly
come to its full strength. But already there is joy enough in
the little finger of a great saint such as yonder lady to
waken all the dead things in the universe to life.”
The R.S.V. Christian Bible, Revelation, chapter 12, verse 1,
tells us prophetically of a marvellous event to come, of a
sign, of a woman. “And a great portent appeared in heaven
a woman clothed with the sun with the moon under her feet
and on her head a crown of twelve stars.”
In the Prophecies of John of Jerusalem an 11th century
knight we read the following regarding ‘the Mother’ and the
coming Millennium time. “She will be a great Master of the
future times.....” “She will be the Mother of the Millennium
that comes after the Millennium.” “After the days of the
devil She will make the softness of a Mother flow. g) In the
Christian Gnostic Gospel of Thomas this mysterious divine
feminine power is alluded to in verse 101 as:- “My mother
gave me birth My true Mother gave me Life”
The Essene Gospel of Peace, Book 1 (Page 7), speaks of
this feminine aspect of the divine as being an inner life
force, as something to be realised. “Your Mother is in you,
and you in her, She gives you life.”
In ancient writings of the Bible and also Gnostic
records...the energy now known to many today as
Kundalini energy is called by various names such as:
Sophia, Life, Mother of the living or Wisdom. This force
called Wisdom is likened to a feminine energy, and even a
feminine personality ........ named as She and Her. In these
writings the words; She...Her ...Wisdom & Holy Spirit are
used interchangeably to refer to this feminine aspect of the
Divine. Also later known in Christian texts as the Holy
Ghost, Comforter, Counsellor and Redeemer...
And what of Sophia, of Wisdom, of the Holy Spirit,
Comforter, Counsellor, Redeemer? Well people say She is
here, residing within each and everyone of us as a sleeping
potential, an inner life force, known widely as the Kundalini
energy. This unique energy resides in the sacrum (sacred)
bone. It is said that She can be awakened if one truly
desires it so. It sounds like a dream but that’s what this
music seeks to proclaim and celebrate. Further it is said
that the one who resurrects this inner Divine Life Force, enmasse, is the Divine Mother, Goddess, Holy Spirit, who is
verily a Comforter, Counsellor, Redeemer.
This inner living resurrection can be enjoyed every day, and
each second by those who experience it. What’s more, it is
celebrated globally on the anniversary of the opening of the
Sahasrara. The Sahasrara is the universal energy centre
located at the crown of the head, at the fontanelle, the
seventh chakra or highest centre of consciousness, known
otherwise as the thousand petalled lotus. It is through this
last centre that one is able to connect with the all pervading
universal divine “that is”. On the day it was opened on a
cosmic level it is said that the whole atmosphere was filled
with tremendous chaitanya (divine life force energyvibrations) and there was tremendous light in the sky, and
the whole thing came on the Earth. Since that day,
thousands upon thousands of seekers from every nation
have crossed paths with the one who ‘delivers the goods’.
For as the Ancient Wisdom of Solomon promises: Verse 6.
12 – “Wisdom is radiant and unfading and she is easily
discerned by those who love her, and is found by those who
seek her.” “She hastens to make herself known to those
who desire her.” and “...she goes about seeking those
worthy of her, and she graciously appears to them in their
paths, and meets them in every thought. Hence the song
lyrics: “She was also in your City. Haven’t you heard?”
Every year since 1970, the moment when the last centre in
our evolutionary assent was opened, great celebrations
have been taking place with people gathering from every
nation & religious tradition somewhere on the world stage.
And the day of commemoration – May 5th. Hence, it was a
big surprise to find some predictions regarding this
particular day, May 5th, for the year 2000, the so called
Millennium year.
The Fernbank Science Centre Planetarium of Emory
University in Atlanta, Georgia, USA have carried out various
assessments and concluded that there will be a line-up of
planets (heavenly bodies) in the next Millennium. Such lineups may have only the subtlest of effects upon our lives, so
no armageddon type scenarios, please. In short various
planets; Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn, and the
Sun and the new Moon will come into alignment with Earth,
in a most unique conjunction or union. Momentarily being
connected along invisible gravitational lines of energy. Like
a cosmic string of pearls. Perhaps this will be a particularly
auspicious day. And when? On the precise date of May 5th,
2000. This is mentioned only to spark curiosity, to lead the
attention onward, to activate the seeking and questing
faculty, to stimulate the desire to know, feel and experience
the eternal. Everyone can do it..... if they wish!
All this excitement about the so called Millennium may lead
us in the wrong directions. The Millennium isn’t a one
moment event, if anything it more clearly represents a
dawning. As a seed sprouts and promises new growth, so
we might look upon the idea of the Millennium. After all,
this time business is in essence just a man made concept,
and perhaps not too much should be made of it. In any
event it is commonly debated that the Julian (Christian
calendar) is only accurate to about plus or minus seven
years. (So the Millennium could really be anywhere
between 1993-2007).
Hence, some say, it is best to stay in the present and tap
into that inner state beyond time, the fifth dimension,
accessible by achieving a state of ‘thoughtless awareness’
at the Sahasrara chakra.....otherwise known as the Turiya
State or Eternity.
Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941), who was awarded the
Nobel prize for literature in 1913 makes the following plea:“Oh! Mother, let my mind awake slowly on the Sacred
Shore of the sea, where great souls of the world have come
together to offer their pranams. Here with outstretched
hands we bow-down to the Divine in human form. In
bounteous poetry and in great joy we adore thee. Behold
here oh seeker! The mountain of meditation with rivers
resounding and dancing to the solemn music of heaven.
Adore here your Sacred Mother Earth where great souls
have come together on the seashore to offer their pranams.
Come oh! Aryans, come non Aryans, come Hindus and
Muslims. Come come oh Englishmen, come Christians,
come oh Brahmins purify your heart, hold the hands of the
down-trodden and out-castes. Remove all ills and
disrespect. Come quickly for the coronation (anointing) of
the Mother,” Blossom Time is indeed here! This is the
season!
— Geoffrey Godfrey

The 2012 prophecies are optimistic
"When the Spanish conquered the Incas 500 years ago, the
last pachacuti, or great change, occurred. The Q'ero have
been waiting ever since for the next pachacuti, when order
would emerge out of chaos. For the past five centuries they
preserved their sacred knowledge, and finally, in recent
years, the signs were fulfilled that the great time of change
was at hand:
- the high mountain lagoons have dried,
- the condor is nearly extinct
- and the discovery of the Golden Temple has occurred,
following the earthquake in 1949 which represented the
wrath of the sun.
The prophecies are optimistic. They refer to the end of time
as we know it -- the death of a way of thinking and a way
of being, the end of a way of relating to nature and to the
earth.
In the coming years, the Incas expect us to emerge into a
golden age, a golden millennium of peace. The prophecies
also speak of tumultuous changes happening in the earth,
and in our psyche, redefining our relationships and
spirituality. The next pachacuti, or great change, has
already begun, and it promises the emergence of a new
human after this period of turmoil. The chaos and upheaval
characteristic of this period will last another four years,
according to the Q'ero.
The paradigm of European civilization will continue to
collapse, and the way of the Earth people will return. Even
more importantly, the shamanic elders speak about a tear
in the fabric of time itself. This presents an opportunity for
us to describe ourselves not as who we have been in the
past but as who we are becoming.
Pachacuti also refers to a great Incan leader who lived in
the late 1300s. He is said to have built Machu Picchu and
was the architect of an empire the size of the US. For the
Incas, Pachacuti is a spiritual prototype—a Master, a
luminous one who stepped outside of time. He was a
messiah, but not in the Christian sense of the only son of
God, beyond the reach of humanity. Rather he is viewed as
a symbol and promise of who we all might become. He
embodies the essence of the prophecies of the pachacuti,
as Pacha means "earth" or "time," and cuti means "to set
things right." His name also means "transformer of the
earth."
The prophecies of the pachacuti are known throughout the
Andes. There are those who believe the prophecies refer to
the return of the leader Pachacuti to defeat those who took
the Incas' land. But according to Dr. Villoldo, the return of
Pachacuti is taking place on the collective level. "It's not the
return of a single individual who embodies what we're
becoming, but a process of emergence available to all
peoples."
The Q'ero have served as the caretakers of the rites and
prophecies of their Inca ancestors. The prophecies are of no
use unless one has the keys, the rites of passage. The Star
Rites, or "Mosoq Karpay" (The Rites of the Time to Come),
are crucial to the practical growth described in the
prophecies. Following the "despachos" (ritualistic offerings
of mesa, or medicine bundles) at the ceremony in New York
City, the shamans administered the Mosoq Karpay to the
individuals present, transmitting the energies originating
with the ancestors of their lineage. The transmission of the
Mosoq Karpay is the ceremony representing the end of
one's relationship to time. It is a process of the heart.
This process of Becoming is considered more important
than the prophecies themselves. The Karpay (rites) plant
the seed of knowledge, the seed of Pachacuti, in the
luminous body of the recipient. It is up to each person to
water and tend the seed so that it can grow and blossom.
The rites are a transmission of potential; one must then
make oneself available to destiny. The Karpays connect the
person to an ancient lineage of knowledge and power that
cannot be accessed by the individual. It can only be
summoned by a tribe.
Ultimately, this power can provide the impetus for one to
leap into the body of an Inca, a Luminous One. That person
is connected directly to the stars, the Incan Sun of
cosmology. The Q'ero believe that the doorways between
the worlds are opening again. Holes in time that we can
step through and beyond, where we can explore our human
capabilities. Regaining our luminous nature is a possibility
today for all who dare to take the leap.
The Andean shamans say,
"Follow your own footsteps. Learn from the rivers, the trees
and the rocks. Honor the Christ, the Buddha, your brothers
and sisters. Honor the Earth Mother and the Great Spirit.
Honor yourself and all of creation." "

Grand Events are about to occur and Ancient Wisdom
is returning to Earth
"The Maya developed their calendar long before the Julian
or Gregorian calendars came into existence. The Mayan
Calendar is based on naturally occurring energy cycles and
a close connection to Mother Earth, the Sun, and the
Pleiades. Because the Maya honored Mother Earth and the
energy cycles that are present here, they were in tune with
the cycles. They had access to information that is not
available to 'modern people' because 'modern people' are
extremely limited by their belief systems.
The Maya gained knowledge about many cycles which occur
on Earth. They recognized a 13-day cycle of energy which
comes from galactic sources. They also came to know a 20day energy cycle coming from the Sun. By studying the
cycles and their interaction with each other, the Maya
gained an understanding of life on Earth that far exceeds
our 'modern' beliefs. Fortunately, this knowledge is
becoming available to us at this time to assist in our 'return
to natural harmony'...
As the Grand Cycle nears completion, something very
interesting is also happening in the Pleiades constellation.
The star Maya is the 3rd star of the Pleiades constellation.
The star Maya passes through the Photon Band for about
2000 years and out of the band for about 1,200 years. It's
orbital path around Alcyone is shorter since it is closer to
Alcyone. Our Sun will enter the Photon Band in 1998 and
become completely within the Band by 2002. As our Sun
leaves the Galactic Night and enters the Band, the star
Maya also enters the Photon Band. These two stars are
synchronized at this time. As the star Maya returns to the
Photon Band, the Mayan Beings of Light are returning to
Earth to assist us as the Grand Cycle comes to completion.
Grand Events are about to occur and Ancient Wisdom is
returning to Earth. Know that you have all chosen to be
here on Earth at this time to experience what will be...
Time is not linear. We have been taught to think of Time as
only going forward, from one point to another. I think it is
more accurate to think of Time as a spiral, as cycles. In an
ancient time, our Mother Earth was pristine and all of her
life forms lived in harmony and honor. It is possible to heal
the Earth and restore Her to her pristine state by merging
the Ancient Times with the present. To accomplish this, we
must first rid ourselves of the limitation of believing that
Time is linear. The Mayan and Dreamspell Calendars can
assist us greatly in coming to a greater understanding of
Time. It is something that must be experienced. It is
difficult to put into words because our language lacks the
terms to express the nature of Time.
We create our Reality. For whatever reason or purpose, the
mass consciousness of humanity is embracing linear time
and creating a very limited reality. As each of us shifts out
of the mass consciousness, it helps to change the whole.
Love and Honor your Mother Earth. Receive the Galactic
Synchronization Beam from the Sun. Sing the song of your
Soul. Listen to your Heart."

With their tools of love they bring the message to
humanity that their attitude needs to change
"We are living the times of the prophecies and now in
another calendar of Ox Lahu Baktun. It also talks about the
cycle of the great changes. In this cycle of the 5085 years
in the Mayan calendar there are still 15 more years to go
before this calendar can be completed. When this cycle is
completed and another restoration of the planet will begin.
The world once again has fallen into neglecting nature. The
world has been led by the materialistic ways, and humanity
needs to transcend this cycle and to live in a more subtle
dimension. Right now only the spiritual people in this planet
are living this process. The indigenous groups of the planet
are also living this process. But the great majority of
humanity has no idea of these changes. These changes can
be very catastrophic. It is my goal that the different
indigenous and spiritual groups might come together as the
new warriors of the light. With their tools of love they bring
the message to humanity that their attitude needs to
change. We need these positive attitudes as far as the
different indigenous and spiritual groups and their
relationship with nature, with our brothers and sisters the
trees, with our brothers and sisters the animals, and with
our Mother Earth.
Even though we have neglected and abused Mother Earth,
we have taken her skin off, we have contaminated her
waters, we have contaminated her wind, she is still serving
us in a great way. Disobedient children we have been, yet
she still loves us and nurtures us. We must understand that
Grandfather Sun shines its light on us, no matter what color
or shape or size we are. We must see each other with this
attitude in mind. If a great part of humanity begins to
understand this process, not only on an intellectual level,
but also at a level of living it, those drastic changes that
those prophecies talk about might not be so drastic.
Ancient sky watchers and wisdom keepers of the original
traditions of Mother Earth remind us of our cosmic origins
and how re-aligning with the cosmos can give us essential
energy needed to live together harmoniously and with
honor for our Mother Earth. They teach that everything that
happens in the sky affects our perceptions and our
evolution. We are not separate from anything or anyone. It
is clear that these current times on Mother Earth are like no
other. These are the times in which all races, from all
directions, must come together in harmony and unity."

What are the living Maya saying about 2012?
Tz'utujil Maya Women from Guatemala
2012 is the completion of the ancient Mesoamerican Long
Count Calendar Cycle but the Maya of today no longer track
the Long Count Cycle. Conservative estimates say its been
at least 500 years since they have, since at least the time
of the Spanish Invasion. The last Long Count Calendar
inscription recorded in stone is from 909 AD, more than a
thousand years ago.
Currently, there are at least 7 million Maya living today.
The largest populations of contemporary Maya inhabit the
Mexican states of Yucatán, Campeche, Quintana Roo,
Tabasco, and Chiapas, and in the Central American
countries of Belize, Guatemala, and the western portions of
Honduras and El Salvador.
Depending on who you talk to, one can find evidence that
some living Maya endorse the 2012 date as being of critical
importance, while some may not be aware of it, or do not
necessarily agree with its projected significance. Some
think it is a matter for the shamans and priests, and do not
relate to the westernized apocalyptic themes we've married
the 2012 date to.
To share one example, take Gerardo Barrios who began a
quest over 20 years ago of travelling to different villages in
Guatemala, Mexico, Belize, El Salvador and Honduras,
eventually interviewing nearly 600 Maya Timekeepers.
Sharing his reflections, Gerardo Barrios states:
"We are now in a transition period called the 'Cycle of the
merge of the dark and the light.'...The cycle of the light will
come in full force on 12/21/2012...Mother Earth as a living
entity will transcend to another level or frequency of
consciousness and a new and special era will begin...This
era will be very positive. 'Let all beings rise. Let not one or
two stay behind.'...The times are here for total
brotherhood...The spirit beings, different philosophies,
different races must begin to weave together all knowledge
to create the tapestry of harmony and balance..."
From a different perspective, author Kenneth Johnson
writes "...most contemporary Maya continue to view these
cycles of World Emergence purely in terms of 'cycles within
cycles...' Many are aware that the 2012 end date was
supposed to signify such a transition, but they are not
altogether convinced that this date is as meaningful as we
Westerners think it is."
Along these lines, Grandfather Don Alejandro Cirilo Perez
Oxlaj, 13th Generation Quiche Maya Priest and Head of The
National Mayan Council of Indigenous Elders in Guatemala
representing 440 Maya tribes, is hesitant to pinpoint 2012
as the certain date of destiny. He is weary of putting false
claims on the exact timing of a process he knows is in
motion. However, according to Drunvalo Melchizadek whom
he authorized to speak to the world on his behalf, he has
recently declared that we are now in the Window of the End
of Time, meaning the closing of the Great cycle is upon us.
He has said that due to the fulfillment of the Hopi Blue Star
prophecy on October 24, 2007, brought by Comet Holmes,
it is likely that the transformation to a New Cycle of the Sun
will occur sometime between now and 2016.
When we visited Guatemala last winter, we had the honor
of participating in sacred fire ceremony with Grandfather
Don Alejandro. After the ceremony, he shared with a small
circle of us in regards to 2012. He stated that amongst the
Maya of today, they can't collectively say for sure when the
cycle is ending because almost all of their calendars and
books (and countless sacred artifacts) were brutally
destroyed in 1562 by the Roman Catholic Bishop De Landa.
(Only 3 Maya codices remain intact.)
According to him, the changes that are coming are already
happening now and could culminate very soon, or perhaps
over the next several generations. He doesn't want the
people of the world to have expectations that lead them to
say that nothing ended up happening in 2012 and
discounting the wisdom of the Maya ancestors.
Specific dates aside, Don Alejandro shares the possibility
that our shift into the new cycle of the Sun will be marked
by a time of 30-70 hours of prolonged darkness. If this
occurs, he stresses the importance of us not fearing this
darkness, remaining calm and knowing it will pass.
According to Drunvalo Melchizadek, he also mentions the
possibility of a physical pole shift of the Earth's axis.
Don Alejandro's message always points out the supreme
necessity of us changing our modern ways and taking
responsibility for the "great contamination" that man has
perpetuated, so that we can find our way of living in
harmony with Earth. "We don’t want any more wars, no
more death, no more nuclear testing, no more chemicals,
because the warming up of the planet is unbearable to
Mother Earth. If we don’t change, sooner or later, she will
strike back with millions of lives lost."
All of this said, he also shares that this shifting ages is a
positive thing that we should be very happy about: "So for
us the time that is coming to us, is a time of change. And
for us the Mayas, it is joy and happiness. They are saying in
2012 that this will end. So for us, the Mayans, if it were to
happen in 2012, oh, how happy it would be. And our
Creator, he will leave seeds from different regions for the
future. So you, when that time comes, you will be
prepared."
From his heart, Don Alejandro implores us to not be afraid
in the face of these Unknowns. As he said to us directly,
"Do not be afraid. Do not be afraid. The Children of the Sun
will survive." He was adament that the Maya prophecies are
not saying the destruction of the planet is coming, and the
elders are not pleased with the spreading of rumors of
misleading information that is creating more fear in the
people. As he said, "...it is only a change of a cycle of the
Sun. It is not the first time this is going to happen nor will it
be the last."
As Grandfather Don Alejandro shares, the essence of the
Maya Prophecy says: “Arise, all arise, not one nor two
groups be left behind, together we will see once again the
place from where we have come from.”
As Yucatec Maya Elder Hunbatz Men comments: "According
to the prophecies, in the year 2013 the first stage of higher
understanding will begin. If we are willing to work with our
subconscious, we will then be able to reclaim the
information that has been impregnated in the deepest parts
of our being. In this way, the ancient knowledge will rise
again." Likewise, Don Alejandro shared that the wisdom of
the Ancestors has never left, and that the Return of their
Knowledge into our lives is imminent.
In regards to 2012, a man named Carlos Barrios who was
born in Guatemala and trained as a Mayan Ajq'ij has a lot
to share. Here is an excerpt from "The Book of Destiny" by
Carlos Barrios:
"For the Maya, the famous date of December 21, 2012
marks the beginning of the fifth cycle of 5,200 years called
Job Ajaw, or The Fifth Sun. This potentially apocalyptic date
is the beginning of a change in consciousness, a time when
a new socioeconomic order will arise in harmony with
Mother Earth.
"Just as the world did not end in the year 2000, at the start
of the millenium, it won't end with the advent of Job Ajaw
in 2012. An unfounded fear was created before the new
millenium by religious leaders who based their theories on
misguided interpretations of ancient religious texts and
predictions made by famous prophets. The same fear is
rising again. The true guardians of this tradition have never
been consulted about this date, but we are here to say:
December 21, 2012 will not be the end of the world or the
end of humanity. In fact, it will be the start of a period in
which harmony, understanding, peace, and wisdom can
reign. The prophecy says that during Job Ajaw we will move
to a harmonious Natural Order so that both the Earth and
humanity can attain the next stage of evolution.
"We are reaching a transcendent period as predicted by
many of the world's great traditions and visionaries. Now
we have the opportunity to ascend spiritually together with
Mother Earth. The Maya speak of such prophetic times
when either this transcendence will be possible or we will
self-destruct.
"Mayan prophecies of events during this period have been
astonishingly exact. The prophecies regarding the war in
Iraq, the destruction of the Twin Towers, conflicts such as
those between India and Pakistan and between Israel and
Palestine, the tsunamis, earthquakes and floods are just a
few examples. The predictions that have not yet come to
pass are even more catastrophic—but there is time to
change the outcome! Our Grandfathers warn of calamities
and the possible destruction of a large part of humankind
so that we can change such events. The Mayan Elders want
to caution us that we must live in harmony, become aware,
stop polluting, and safeguard our natural resources. The
damage we have already done to Mother Earth is more
than obvious.
"Very little attention has been paid to the importance of
earlier cycles, particularly the end of this one, Kajib Ajaw,
or the Fourth Sun. It is during this period—right now—that
we run the greatest risk of large scale conflicts and natural
disasters. The catastrophic side of the prophecy has
unfortunately been misinterpreted as an inexorable,
apocalyptic event. It is within our power, however, to
prevent this from happening. We may be facing the selfdestruction of much of humanity, but an ever-increasing
number of us are also becoming aware of the damage we
have caused to the environment and what we must do to
change this...
"The imminent arrival of the new prophetic cycle Job Ajaw,
a period of 5,200 years beginning on December 21, 2012,
will bring future generations their rightful legacy: a return
to a state of awareness."
What are some universal themes of this Living
Prophecy?
We are in a Time of Trial, a sacred testing, a Great
Crossing. We must find the ways to live in harmony and
peacefully coexist within our Biosphere; our survival
depends upon our awakening to the Interdependence of
Life. By the day, it is becoming more and more evident that
business as usual is the blind path and that we must learn
to navigate with greater light.
Emergence by Hopi Artist Michael Kabotie
Regardless of any specific date, as the Indigenous Elders
confirm, the signs of the times are manifesting
everywhere—both inside of us and in our shared world. We
all feel the intensity in our lives as we progress through
these changing times. Whether we look to the global
economic crisis, the environmental biospheric crisis, the
countless social and human crises with overpopulation,
poverty, homelessness, disease, starvation, wars, all of the
earth changes that are underway, etc, it is clear we are
living in extremely significant times. This moment in our
evolution as a species has never existed before in the way
it is manifesting right now.
This living prophecy is not about one day a light all of the
sudden being turned on, rather this is about the process we
are in NOW, that will keep steadily unfolding. The essence
of this time of prophecy is that we are living in a time of
crossroads; a time of shifting world age cycles where the
old world and its separation-based mentality is in the
process of dying and transforming into a new world that
lives and creates through our hearts.
We are in a great inbetween time right now, experiencing a
tension of the opposites playing out between contracted
forces of fear that seek to have false power by
manipulating life with a mind founded in duality, and the
expansive forces of possibility that seek to be empowered
by living in harmony with life, surrending our hearts to the
Mystery school of life that unites us.
An important theme is the reminder that "it is always
darkest before the dawn." In other words, it is said that if
we can navigate through these times of immense challenge
and crisis, the eventual renewal of the world cycles will
bring a gradual return of wisdom and balance.
Channeler of Light by Patricia M. Bowers This is the theme
of Return that appears in many different prophecies. Return
to Balance; consciously unifying matter and spirit; The
Return of the Divine Feminine. Return of the Christ
Consciousness. Return of the Feathered Serpent, the snake
and the bird unifying the lower, primal and higher, celestial
nature within us. The Return of the Wisdom of the
Ancestors and Star Beings; The Return to Living In
Harmony with Nature; The Sacred Hoop of All Nations can
be Whole again; the New Jerusalem emerging, the Rainbow
Warriors arising; Returning to the Consciousness of the
Garden; Returning to Awareness of our True Nature. Can it
be? It seems there is no other quest but to awaken to our
human potential. The focus of Return brings an energy of
Rebirth into a new sense of wholeness.
Essentially, the idea is that we have been in a long era
dominated by the linear, rational mind split off from the
body and the heart, entranced by linear time, reductionist
scientific paradigms, blind materialsm, egoic competition,
the dualistic mentality of right and wrong, and a fear-based
sense of separation and greed resulting from a deep,
societally entrenched disconnection from the sacred
oneness of life.
As we gradually shift gears out of the old paradigm
described above, we can eventually move into an era that
will be increasingly guided by the heart and intuition
integrated with the mind and body, attuned to the eternal
dimension of being, supportive of new quantum sciences,
living in harmony with nature and in touch with the
spiritual, invisible dimensions, dedicated to authentic
cooperation, tolerant of diversity and holding space for
multiple viewpoints, guided by conscious awareness of our
precious interdependence, desiring to serve the whole.
