The Shift of the Ages

Authentic Mayan Messages           Rainy’s Personal Perspective

<><><><><><><><><>

As we approach 2012 the myriad of possibilities this date holds for Earth and humanity is being splayed across the world. Global events from politics, war, humanitarian actions and unique and powerful weather are all ready being looked at through the lens of 2012.

Some are calling it hype similar to Y2K, some are hoping to get a glimpse of the future by studying the vast amount of information swirling around the date and some are focused on day to day happenings only getting the media sound bite version. Each day more and more people gather and offer prayers for good outcome. No matter where we are on the planet we will be going through this time as a global community. How will one know what to believe and does it even matter?

Ancient legend, prophecy, speculation framed in new age and light worker language, meditation, the Bible, the Koran, the Talmud, reading sign, channeling, astrology, numerology and astronomy are just some of the sources people use to interpret the meaning of this date.

Each of us will view these times with eyes of our own soul experience.

<><><>

The focus of the Luminous Garden site is about creating a better world, perhaps one that will be birthed as the Earth spirals through the Central Galactic Gateway.  Though there is debate on dates, it is clear Earth and her Solar System have done this before. Oral history shared still today among indigenous peoples elder to child speaks of different times, ages, and worlds that went before.

Given this collective belief of past ages, the various calendars and prophecies perhaps we are experiencing and witnessing an evolutionary event.  Could the blending of the races be the beginnings? What about the youth epidemic of ADHD and what many call the increase in psychic sensitivity level in children. On an emotional plane people are tuned in more with the struggles and pain of beings across the planet including the animal and plant life. We see many good actions that reach across continents including people meeting in the ethers to help heal. Finally violating behaviors such as greed, enslavement and genocide are being declared unacceptable as perpetrators are thrust on to the town square of the world and held accountable. On a spiritual plane many are finding the core commonalities in beliefs and faiths, questioning practices and acknowledging the spirit in all things.

So could these be considered the signs of a shift?

<><><>

There is the legend of the phoenix which states the bird to give birth to its offspring must incinerate for new life to emerge.  Is this happening?

We just saw the collapse of the financial system and many of the major religions are undergoing change. Sun spot activity is increasing and has the potential to collapse power grids. Earthquake and volcanic activity, signs of inner heat are becoming more powerful. Wild fires are blazing longer and the Earth shows signs of a global warming. Are these perhaps a mirror of an etheric flame that will finally burn away our base human behaviors – allowing a more loving human who sees his place in connection to all things… rise? Or perhaps it will happen in a flash as we go through the 2012 arch.

It’s said all of humanity once lived in harmony with the Earth and all her beings.

It is time to honor and listen and learn from those who while being overrun by crude humans for centuries kept alive living in harmony with the Earth and all her beings, seen and unseen. The quiet persistent voices are finally being heard and their wisdom welcomed by the youth of the brash dominant society.

What ever it is that is going on, humanity is being provided a huge opportunity to embrace a more conscious loving relationship with the great being Earth and all upon her. .

Complicated, fluid, volatile, filled with anxiety and hope are these Times of Purfication. Your answers will be found in many places, including the most precious place, your heart. The heart can ground fear and translate the complex.

Place your finder tips to your heart as you think on these things and listen for your truth, your knowing of what is happening for you. The changes, the shift is within as well as without.

There are way too many excellent and not so excellent sources for guidance and information about this planetary event. It will be easy to find them, and then discern validity by consulting the wisdom of your heart as you pass information through.  Truth will vibrate, it can be felt.

Much has been made about the meaning of the Mayan Calender ending in 2012, it is not about the end of the world as some want to spread.

Authentic Mayan interpretation of this event is being offered to the world by Grandfather Cirilo Perez Oxlaj. Grandfather Cirilo is the Messenger of the Maya, the Voice of the Jungle. Grandfather also known as Wandering Wolf, the translation of his Mayan name is responsible for guiding us through a prophesied evolutionary transition called the Shift of the Ages. He relays not only potent messages filled with hope and promise, but also grave warnings about the changes we must make.

He tells us we are living in the time when the ancestors, as well as men and women of wisdom, return to usher in a new era of global harmony and a new phase of human evolution..

Wandering Wolf’s messages have been filmed and will be released  in DVD form this year. Right now they can be viewed at the Shift of the Ages website. Time is short and humanity needs to hear the real message of the Maya, not the Hollywood versions. WE, the grassroots people of Earth are the ones to do.

A PERSONAL PERSPECTIVE on the Shift from Rainy

The perspective offered here is just one of  many I hold about this Galactic Event of 2011 & 2012  and the coming Shift of the Ages.  It is not a common belief.

<><><>

In many cultures there are defined rights of passage as one goes through the stages of human development. The ritual and ceremonies vary but the saluting and acknowledging of change occurs at or happens at the same  junctures or life events.  Being born, puberty, parenthood, sage hood, the final crossing over through death all have sacred rituals associated with them.

There is one ceremony that occurs for entering crone or wise woman hood. The woman prepares by reviewing her life and choosing to release those behaviors and memories that no longer serve her. She declares these out loud to witnesses and the universe, she then walks though a twig archway she herself has made, turns and lights it on fire burning away all that she chooses to release from her past. She begins the next phase of her life purified, declaring her dreams and hopes for the future.

Could our Earth who has known other spirals around the galactic trail, our Earth who is believed by so many to be feminine, our Earth Mother, could she be passing though a rite of passage with the 2012 Galactic Gateway?  Are the turmoil and chaos of culture and climate the preparation before going through this arch? Is the portal of the Galactic Center her burning archway?

This cosmic rite of passage for the Earth and Solar System is possible when one holds the belief the universe and all her beings are alive,  interconnected and interacting. Rites of passage are preceded by trials and tests. This is the stage we are in now.

These years are known as the “Times of Purification”, the quickening. Are we purifying to prepare for the quickening and birth of a better wiser way to live in the universe? Could the unsavory creations of man be burned away?

Will there be only one outcome? It certainly will be multi dimensional. Could it be that for some the doomsday scenarios will play out and for others the return of a Golden Age of love and harmony will manifest?  Will there be only one outcome or can it be perhaps multifaceted or even multi dimensional?

AS ABOVE, SO BELOW, as within, so without.  The lightening or the path, which is it, were do we look, were do we give attention?

As humanity collectively and as humans individually experience the chaos, the changes, it will be easy to be caught in the external events however attention to the inner realms of ones being are key to the transition. Finding balance, finding center, the place of all there is, full of potential and yet still, vast and empty is our real challenge.

The realm of spiritual health is where great change for many humans is needed. What we carry in our heart and minds creates the luminous fibers that extend into the world. It’s not just what we say or do it is the way we carry our soul and spirit inside where no one sees. The unseen beings and true humans see right through and will not collaborate any longer with human practices that inflict harm to self or other, subtle or dramatic.  Personal patterns and micro and macro systems that no longer serve the good of all are shattering. Internal tsunamis, earthquakes and wild fires are occurring for many, just as they are happening upon the Earth. These are the “Times of Purification”.  Humanity is given a great opportunity to leave behind sordid practices and base thinking with this Shift.

Prayer is key, not the memorized or said by wrote ways, but true talk from the heart. When our mind and heart are in unison we are heard in the realms of within and without. Finding the quiet place within, where we know gratitude for our breath, our life and the divine sparkle that is each of us, will bring humanity back to take a seat again in the luminous hoop, the great web of life.  Never has there been this many awakening on the planet and daily more and more are becoming conscious of the divinity within. Prayer clears the channel, the hollow reed, between the within and without so the flow, the movement, the love of the Great Spirit is lived. A friend just said “True aliveness is not dependent on the outer world. But true aliveness sees great aliveness in the outer world”. When humans honor the divine sparkle in all things it will be the Golden Age.

Prepare yourself within for the shift, seek guidance if needed and LOVE yourself. Your LOVE will be reflected to the world.

                               ~As above, so below, as within so without~

Let us meet on the other side….  Our en lightened selves, our purified Earth… in the                                 “Times of Celebration”.

In Lak’ech ~ Namaste ~ Mitakuye Oyasin ~ The i of me is you ~ In Light we are One

You are welcome to discuss your thoughts, observations and perspectives about these coming times at the Garden Forum.

May the Earth and humanity Walk in Beauty,

Gratitude to the Creator, the Earth Mother Ix Mukane, my teachers, the garden website designer David and to all the unknown people who’s pictures added beauty to this posting.
