Mundane Astrologer Richard Nolle put it so succinctly: “The most important thing about the year (2012) is that there’s another one coming up right behind it.” and “The world doesn’t end in our time. Instead, we have empires ending, civilization shifting, the death of one economic system being the birth pangs of the next. It’s happening now, and it’s déjà vu all over again. We’ve been in the midst of this for a generation already, and we’re now in the home stretch of the transformation coming into the world in 2020.” (astropro.com/futures)

Now, I do believe that the Mayan Astrologers had astoundingly accurate insights into the workings of the Galaxy that is fascinating, timely and the stuff of prophecy worth heeding once rightly decoded. Moreover, scientific evidence points to planets even within our own solar system having been totally annihilated. (Galactic Star Wars is the subject of another post coming up !) That being said, Nolle, whose accurate predictions have earned him a place of respect in the astrological world, makes a point without which we cannot even begin – the bottom line is that we’ve plenty on our plates to grapple with, but childish fear is not going to get us to the next step any better or more securely! Rather, let us use the science of cycles more intelligently.  Let us pray that what is ending on time and in right measure within us each one and together is centuries of greed, war, ignorance and lust! O world, awake!
