The first part of this session can be read in the September issue here.

Are you aware that a Shift in human consciousness is occurring even as you read these words that employs celestial triggers such as supernovas and Earth's alignment with Galactic Center in the years leading up to 2012 to trigger the evolution of our species?

This Shift has been documented in a stimulating multimedia presentation entitled "Preparing for the Shift," by Barry and Janae Weinhold, Ph.D.s. Over decades devoted to the study of consciousness and evolution, the Weinholds, both trained psychologists, have gathered overwhelming evidence that humanity is in the middle of a long-awaited Shift in consciousness predicted in hundreds of indigenous cultures worldwide.

Today this Shift is visible nearly every time you open a newspaper or turn on the TV. It can be seen in the breakdown of many old structures such as those that underpin governments, churches and corporations, as well as in families and individuals. It is also evident in the ecological breakdown of numerous Earth systems, a widespread perception time is accelerating, drastic changes in weather patterns, more people feeling overwhelmed by modern life's complexity, and increased polarization between groups, religions, and regions.

They predict that Earth and humanity are about to be birthed into a new reality based on unity predicated on a dramatic advance in consciousness.

Fortunately, along with signs of breakdown, the Weinholds emphasize there is also considerable evidence of breakthrough: the appearance of stunningly gifted children in unprecedented numbers, the emergence of innovative and integrated healing modalities, people becoming less "religious" and more "spiritual," and the dawning of new communities and social structures based on servant leadership and other partnership principles.

The significance of the winter solstice on December 21, 2012, according to the Mayan, Aztec, Incan and Hopi traditions, is that this date marks the close of several cycles of time. The first is the end of the 26,000-year Mayan calendar, also called a "precession" and the Annus Magnus ("Great Year"), considered by many a gestational or birth cycle for Earth. Mayan timekeepers believe that human evolution unfolds as a result of such precisely calibrated master cycles of time. They predict that Earth and humanity are about to be birthed into a new reality based on unity predicated on a dramatic advance in consciousness.

From a Mayan perspective, the Weinholds ask, "What began 26,000 years ago?" Their extensive psychohistorical research indicates this marked the beginning of humanity's psychological individuation. In human terms, becoming "individuated" means moving from being unconsciously united with the Creator or Ground of Being, to choosing to become divided from the Creator and developing separate individual consciousness, to finally returning to the Creator as conscious, aware individuals. Once people fully individuate, it becomes possible for them to make empowered, discerning choices and use intention to co-create reality with Source--or perhaps more accurately, to create reality as Source.

The second cycle of time ending in 2012 highlighted in "Preparing for the Shift" is the close of the Galactic Year. It takes 225 million Earth years for the Milky Way Galaxy to make one complete rotation in the sky, which is believed to be a birth cycle for our galaxy. From a galactic perspective, the Weinholds ask, "What was conceived on Earth 225 million years ago?"

Dimensional Structure

The first thing we want to talk about is the structure of the third dimension. You are existing in this dimension on this prime piece of real estate in this little sector of the galaxy. It was designed to be separate from everything else. All right?

Question

What would Earth be like after year 2012? Are there expected to be great changes in reality? After first contact the consciousness of mankind will arise. Is there also going to be a resurrection? What does this mean in practice?

Answer

As with the year 2000, people are fearing dire consequences over the year 2012. It is the time period in which the earth plane will begin to become more aware of the spirit within them. Everything happening now is assisting in bringing that change. It is a time of change and 2012 is the time you will notice a big shift in humanity, that is all it is.

The year 2012 is often mentioned in relation to the fact that the ancient Mayan calendar is due to end on 21st December 2012. According to the Mayan elders, it marks the end of an old era and the beginning of a new one. Astrologically, it also coincides with the transition to the Age of Aquarius from the Age of Pisces.
