2012, The Return of Quetzalcoatl, Daniel Pinchbeck

There are many ideas about what will happen on the Winter Solstice in 2012 described in The Mystery of 2012. They include:

* The end of a Mayan calendar cycle and a choice to evolve or regress.
* The end of the Mayan Great Cycle also marks a rare alignment of our planet, our solar system, and the center of our galaxy which will not occur again for 26,000 years.
* The reversal of the Earth's polarity which has happened 171 times in the last 76 million years and is overdue for another change. This could affect our infrastructure and the human body which contains millions of magnetic particles. "These connect us with the Earth and have a powerful influence on our nervous system, our immune system, and our perceptions of space, time, dreams, and even reality itself."
* The next sunspot cycle has started on March 10, 2006 which may be 30-50% stronger
* An awakening to a higher consciousness
* A return of the Great Goddess
* A start of a new era indicated by the Bible code and the I Ching
* The return of Quetzalcoatl


Based on these significant events, let the theories begin - and they have in abundance. What is interesting to me is that it does seem to be a time for a singularity. a point in time when the rules change and something completely different happens. This also gives me a target date to try to get myself aligned and pointed in the right direction. To get all my multiple selves aligned around a central point of some kind. Not to suppress my sub-selves but to gently urge them in an evolutionary way. So - we have 1,218 days to go to prepare ourselves for our contribution to the singularity. Will we be one of those that help humanity make an evolutionary leap or will we want to regress and push the world toward some kind of apocalypse. Interestingly, there seems to be more apocalyptic movies than normal recently with the movie 2012 coming up. The previews do not look to well informed. I image some passing reference to the Mayan calendar and then a quick move into the standard "end of the world" re-run we have seen over and over. This 2012 event deserves more than that, it is a truly significant date with destiny. And I hope the movie delivers more than I expect based on the previews. It could be the dawn of a new age - an age beyond the information age, and the knowledge age to a new age called the wisdom age by some. Or according to the theories of the Integral philosophers, this could be a mass move from modern and pluralistic to integral as described by Gebser, from green to teal according to Wilber, 1st Tier to 2nd Tier, into the Authentic and Transpersonal stages of Jenny Wade. Just to name a few.

I plan to post more on Daniel Pinchbeck's book, a book that I thoroughly enjoyed. Daniel has the ideal job of travelling the world as a journalist. He received some kind of Quetzalcoatl transmission which he describes in the book after taking a holotropic drug. What has remained with me of the book, without going back to review the book yet - is that something significant will happen around December 21, 2012 and the transition is in the process now. We can see it by the collapse of the economic system and the general transition feeling that we have now - where the US has gone from extremes of narrow mindedness to a more progressive stance. The change is happening now. I also think that some of the dualities will come together such as female and male. The feminine is coming back with a vengeance which is necessary to bring the world back into balance. This will balance out in Quetzalcoatl who is an androgynous figure like Hermes or that Indian god who is a complete mix of male and female. It may even bring on the complete synopsis (how all the parts are related) or the complete synthesis (a coherent set of concepts and principles). So get ready - 1,218 days to go.
