Article: 2012 Prophecy — The Great Choosing


2012 Prophecy — The Great Choosing

star_swirl
Back in 1987, Jose Arguelles introduced the world to the Harmonic Convergence and the awareness of the end of the Mayan Calendar (Winter Solstice 2012). December 21 is the end of the 5126-year Mayan long count Calendar of Time. Other prophecies and theories have surfaced for this year, as well, concerning the end of time. What are these different prophecies and theories? Who and what is right? Is this the final end or just the end of a cycle? Is there a metaphysical reason for this end date or … [Read more...]

My 2012 letter to you


On 2012 – Gregg Braden’s Letter to the Community

At last, 2012 has arrived! As we enter into a pivotal year for us and our world, it’s clear that the role of community has become key to the way we navigate the huge changes that life seems to be bringing our way. I’m taking the opportunity to personally express my deepest gratitude to you for all that you do to make the big community of our world a better place.
I want you to know that I’ve never been more optimistic about our future and the world that is emerging before our eyes!
From the oral traditions of ancient peoples throughout the world, to the theme of the world’s most cherished spiritual traditions, the significance of our 2012 “window of change” has been no secret. Our ancestors knew this time of change was coming, because it always does. They understood the cyclic nature of Earth’s shifting environment. (Fractal Time, 2009) They also knew that our future would be determined less by the changes themselves and more about us, and whether we choose to fight one another, or work to help one another, as we go through the changes. (Deep Truth, 2011)

What You Make of It


What You Make of It

2012 is here. Finally. After many years of anticipation, sensationalism, foreboding, titillation and wild prophecies, we’ve reached the end of the Mayan calendar. The era of momentous astrological configurations. World upheaval. Apocalyptic destruction. Dissolution of the world as we know it. Mass landing of UFOs. The spiritual ascension of humanity. The dawn of a new age. And on and on and on….
Prophets, authors, soothsayers, shamans and Hollywood have had a field day predicting, explaining and dramatizing the events to come. Will this year be a turning point in human history? Massive suffering leading to spiritual resurrection? The annihilation of evil and the restoration of virtue? The second coming of Christ? A redux of the Y2K dud? Just another year?

2012: The Theories, The Prophecies, The Aftermath


2012: The Theories, The Prophecies, The Aftermath


The thought of the year 2012 brings to the minds of many images of gloom and doom, death and destruction, and the potential reemergence of mankind from its ashes. In the last few years there have been countless books, movies and television specials discussing what the authors believe will happen on December 21, 2012. After investigating all of the available evidence, I have come to my own conclusion as to what will happen on that highly anticipated date.
Before I jump to the punch line and tell you what I believe, let’s spend a few minutes investigating some of the prophecies that have been associated with the 2012 event, and let’s take a look at some of the theories describing what is believed will happen.

May your inner dragon keep you brave in 2012


May your inner dragon keep you brave in 2012
by Tim Miejan

Two decades ago, before the human potential movement morphed into Oprah and Buddhist principles paved the way for Presence studies, The Edge was created in the Upper Midwest to share insights on the essence of spirituality and the integration of alternative healing and conventional medicine.

It was a time of great expansion. Holistic business was booming as new centers opened far and wide to offer treatments and classes on complementary therapies. New shops opened to share books and gifts to support body, mind and soul.

Every month, and every year, revealed more. The Edge continued to evolve in concert with the holistic community, ever mindful of the need to offer support in an era filled with uncertainty. Contributors wrote articles that uplifted our spirits, all the while knowing that transformation is not an easy business.

Now it is 2012. We’ve witnessed incredible upheaval on this planet in recent years. It has taken a toll. Climate change has taken many lives; the collapse of the stock market has erased many life savings. And many of the people who opened small businesses to support body, mind and soul have had to shut their doors.

The Edge, which turns 20 in 2012, remains here to offer its support. Each month in 2012, we will celebrate the legacy of this publication.

Chinese astrology proclaims 2012 as the Year of the Dragon, the mightiest of all signs, regarded in China as a divine beast, not one we should seek and destroy. The dragon symbolizes ambition, dominance, bravery and success. Dragons are free spirits with great passion.

It is fitting that 2012 is a dragon year, not because it will take dragon powers to overcome all of the doomsday hype attached to the end of this year, but because the transformation every one of us is going through requires dragonlike resiliency and determination. Your experience – with spirituality, with healing, with magic and inspiration – has prepared you for this moment. Be strong and be bold! a
