Visual Presentation:  Astrology, The Great Alignment and 12/21/2012

The following is an overview offered to highlight some of the themes I will address in this presentation. The 2012 date is gaining more and more attention. I will highlight some of the most basic facts about this event in the actual phenomenal perspective. What this event indirectly represents is the reality and importance of cycles in our life.  There are many kinds of cycles and each has its own duration and importance. The Great Alignment is based on a 26,000 year cycle called the “Precession of the Equinoxes” and otherwise called the Great Year. I will illustrate how and why the precessional cycle works and what it generally means and what it specifically implies to Mayan cosmology.

There are many interpretations about this focus on 2012 now. These range from the cataclysmic and horrific to the transformational and enlightened. The alignment of the Sun with the Galactic Center is my main focus. Woven into this understanding is also how and why Astrology works. What the alignment implies and how we can be aware of and attuned to this event is also important. Our conscious awareness is a key factor in our co-creative participation. This brings emphasis to the New Paradigm that we are now experiencing. This great shift of collective perception supports the understanding that we are not merely passive observers or victims of circumstance, but as spiritual beings we are co-creators. In addition to emphasizing this point, I will also bring attention to the natural evidence which lends to prove that we are co-creators, and life is a grand expression of spiritual intent and that we are one with it.

What is unique about my presentation is that I am a professional Astrologer and I work with cycles everyday; the cycles that our lives are subject to whether we know it or believe it or not. So, in addition to an overview of the various perspectives on the 2012 alignment, I will both bring closer attention to cycles in general and more specifically, to the many powerful cycles and aspects current now leading up to the 12/21/2012 and beyond with emphasis on the 3 years prior and following the event. Understanding these aspects weaves the western Astrological perspective in to this entire event and will assist people to get mentally and emotionally prepared to experience the alignment consciously. I will also take a much broader view through to the 2020’s and an even much wider view looking to the entire 21^st century and even beyond that to the next 500 years. The emphasis of this wider angle will be based upon what I call the ‘anatomy of a cycle’ and this refers to any cycle of any length and to the principle of the ages like that of Aquarius, for example. An age can otherwise be understood as a Great Month. A great month is simply 1/12^th of a great year and is about 2,150 years long. This can further be broken down into weeks, days, minutes and seconds and in doing so we gain a clear example of the fractals of time that Astrologers work with everyday.

We are already well into what noted author and Mayan Cosmology expert, John Major Jenkins refers to as the “2012 era”. I hope you will choose to attend my visual presentation so you can be more fully aware of the important, powerful and exciting cycles that are, and will be affecting you and us all.
