There is not a day that goes by where it is not blatantly clear that the nature of our lives has drastically changed.  It’s palpable:  the texture of the day, the sense of a greater energy within and around us, the seemingly uncanny synchronicity, and the relentless “material” that comes up, demanding our attention and forcing us to choose another way or remain painfully stuck.

It brings to mind the highly anticipated planetary configurations occurring on Winter Solstice, December 21, 2012 when (in simplistic terms) the Earth is said to be in direct line with the center of the galaxy.  In the language of astrology, it is a precession of the equinoxes that goes in a complete circle and happens only once every 26,000 years.  Add that it coincides with the end of the Long Count in the Mayan calendar (marking the beginning of a new cycle of great significance), and we have a potent field of possibility in the making.

Clearly, the shifts are already in motion as we are forced to deal with the imbalances we have created, personally and collectively.  The movement seems slow as we are held to the mirror for the reflection we must acknowledge and take responsibility for.  There is no looking away now.  Never before has it been more apparent that what we do to another, we do to ourselves – in every moment of each and every day.  And we can no longer pretend that happiness can be found through the manipulation of others and the favors of the material world alone.  That is the real end that is nearing.

Recently, while in meditation, I saw a holographic image of another dimension beginning to overlay the physical plane as we know it.  It appeared as a fluid creation, its moving form inspired by all who are raising consciousness and returning to the truth of our inherent power to create from love, and it gave me a much needed reminder of what is truly happening beyond that which is visible to the human eye.

As an intuitive and spiritual counselor, my life has been led by a relentless and passionate drive for internal transformation, with less emphasis on the material mandates of a society driven by acquisition.  It hasn’t always been easy to reconcile and there has been much sacrifice, but at 57 years of age I am beginning to accept that the purpose of this lifetime relates most significantly to the reflection of the value, and consequence, of the important crossroads humanity is fast approaching.  Perhaps you feel that way too.

As I see it, the 2012 prophecy is in our hands, determined by our choices, and responsive to our every effort to reach and allow for… the miraculous.  Every moment is our creation and every visualization, a reality to be born.
