It is important to define what the Galactic Alignment is in precise astronomical terms. (See the Glossary below for terms.)
The Galactic Alignment is the alignment
of the December solstice sun with the Galactic equator. This alignment
occurs as a result of the precession of the equinoxes.
Precession is caused by the earth
wobbling very slowly on its axis and shifts the position of the
equinoxes and solstices one degree every 71.5 years. Because the sun is
one-half of a degree wide, it will take the December solstice sun 36
years to precess through the Galactic equator (see diagram below).
The precise alignment of the solstice point
(the precise center-point of the body of the sun as viewed from earth)
with the Galactic equator was calculated to occur in 1998 (Jean Meeus, Mathematical Astronomy Morsels, 1997).
Thus, the Galactic Alignment "zone" is 1998 +/- 18 years = 1980 - 2016. This is "era-2012."
This Galactic Alignment occurs only once
every 26,000 years, and was what the ancient Maya were pointing to with
the 2012 end-date of their Long Count calendar.
These are the astronomical facts of the
matter. From a larger perspective, we can visualize the 2012 Galactic
Alignment in the following way:
Position A is where the December
solstice sun was in relation to the Milky Way some 3,000 years ago.
Position B is 1,500 years ago. And position C is "era-2012", when the
December solstice sun has converged, as a result of the precession of
the equinoxes, with the exact center-line of the Milky Way (the Galactic
equator). Notice that the place of alignment is where the 'nuclear
bulge' of the Galactic Center is located.
A long awaiting digital portrayal of precession and galactic alignments is now available on Nick Fiorenza's web site.
Descriptions of the process are also
there, but it should be noted that Nick describes what I refer to as
"the solstice-galaxy alignment" with a preference for the equinox as the
measuring reference. Thus, he speaks of the "Holy Cross" of the equinox
axis and the Milky Way. The point is that "solstice-galaxy alignment"
and "equinox-galaxy cross" refer to the same event.
It is my hope that the these definitions
will help to standardize the terminology so we can clearly discuss the
rare precessional alignment that culminates in era-2012.
The ecliptic: The path followed by the
sun, moon, and planets. It is the plane of our solar system. The
ecliptic encircles the earth and is divided into twelve constellations,
or zodiac signs.
The Milky Way: The bright band of star
that our solar system belongs to. It encircles the earth and is wider in
the region of Sagittarius because that is where the 'nucelar bulge" of
the Milky Way's center is located (our Milky Way is saucer shaped).
The Galactic equator: The precise
mid-line running down the Milky Way. Analogous to the earth's equator,
it divides the galaxy into two hemispheres, or lobes.
The Dark Rift in the Milky Way: A
feature caused by interstellar dust that runs along the Milky Way from
the Galactic Center northward past the constellation of Aquila.
The December solstice sun: The sun, on the December solstice. It is one-half of a degree wide.
The December solstice point: The precise midpoint of the sun, on the December solstice.
The Precession of the equinoxes: The
earth wobbles very slowly on its axis and this causes the position of
the equinox to shift backwards, or precess, through the signs of the
ecliptic at the rate of one degree every 71.5 years. The full
precessional wobble is complete in roughly 25,800 years.
The vernal equinox point is defined by the intersection of the ecliptic and the celestial equator.
The Celestial Equator: The earth's equator projected into the stars. It is the plane of the earth's rotation.
The Cross formed by the Milky Way and
the ecliptic: Exactly as stated. There are two of these, one in early
Sagittarius, the other in early Gemini. The former cross has the virtue
of being located within the nuclear bulge of the Galactic Center.
The nuclear bulge / the Galactic Center:
A bright and wide region of the Milky Way, visible to the naked eye and
between Sagittarius and Scorpio. The more precise and abstract
center-point of the nuclear bulge is the precise Galactic Center,
located at about 6 degrees Sagittarius (sidereal) and 27 degrees in the
tropical zodiac.
We can have a more general discussion of
galactic alignments in history if we consider that the solstice axis
aligns with the galactic equator every half precession cycle. Likewise,
the equinox axis aligns with the galactic equator every half precession
cycle. Thus, galactic alignments, more generally speaking, occur in era
2012 (1980 - 2016) and every quarter precession cycle before and after
era 2012.
In terms of Mayan astronomy and
mythology, the Dark Rift feature (which the Maya called the Black Road
or Xibalba be) lies along the galactic equator (the Milky Way) in the
place where the December solstice sun will be in 2012. (More precisely,
the December solstice sun will reach the southern terminus of the Dark
Rift, where it touches the ecliptic in Sagittarius.) Thus, in terms of
Mayan mythology, we can also describe the Galactic Alignment of era-2012
as the alignment of the December solstice sun and the Dark Rift. This
entire region is targeted by the cross formed by the Milky Way and the
ecliptic between Sagittarius and Scorpio. This Cross was also recognized
by the Maya, and was called the Crossroads or Sacred Tree. This entire
region is embraced by what astronomers call the 'nuclear bulge' of the
Galactic Center-the center of our Milky Way galaxy. As any amateur
astronomer or naked-eye star gazer knows, this nuclear bulge is
recognizable without the aid of radio telescopes. It is wider and
brighter than other parts of the Milky Way. So, in a general sense we
can also say that the alignment in 2012 is an alignment between the
December solstice sun and the Galactic Center. However, since the
nuclear bulge is quite large, this definition is not as precise as
saying "the alignment of the December solstice sun with the Galactic
equator", which occurs in the range 1980 - 2016. This is the alignment
zone I refer to with the term "era-2012."

Though
we are constantly told of all the problems that we face, concerns over
global terrorism, famine, disease, global warming, and global warfare it
has become apparent to many that below the surface problems we are
repeatedly shown by the media, another problem does indeed exist. Such
feelings are being expressed by a great many people, and these feelings
are justified for this earth and indeed humanity itself, does indeend
face a massive threat. It is not the threat of global terrorism or the
threat of war. It is not the threat of environmental disaster or global
warming. It is something more sinister, something that lies within.
All
the world is a stage and everything of importance that occurs on it, is
planned to happen that way and it is through this Illuminati system of
intertwining secret societies that the entire world is ultimately run.
The vital control centers of this mechanism are the three illuminati
city states, all of which are seperate self governing states within host
countries. The first is The City of London, which is the Center for
Monetary Control, The second is Washintons District of Columbia which is
the Center for Military Control and the 3rd is Vatican city which is
the center for spiritual Control. Each City State is a completely
seperate, self governed and sovereign state within an external sovereign
country. Each has its own laws, its own news services and
infrastructure, each pays no taxes to the sovereign country in which it
is located and each has its own flag. The flag of each bears 3 Stars
signifying the 3 city states. Each city also has its own obelisk as the
bloodline that controls the world can be clearly traced back to ancient
egypt. These are the three Illuminati Control Centers of the world. It
is from these three centers that control over all aspects of the world
is achieved.
We
as westerners think we are more advanced than other races because we
have flashy cars, mobile phones and plasma TV's but these are all merely
trinkets. They are nothing more than baubles and beads designed to
distract you from the real power in the universe. A power that we are
all connected to. This connection with the greater power is now becoming
more pronounced and more and more people are waking up everyday as we
approach the line of the galactic ecliptic and the frequency of earth
and everyone and everything rises accordingly.
It
is important now through all of the problems we face, to approach the
world with only love in your heart. This can sometimes be difficult to
do. When faced with the truth about our world and the attrocities that
are being carried out in our names by our governments, Do you feel
outrage? Do you feel anger? It is quite natural to feel such emotions
when faced with this information and quite fine that you do because such
anger and outrage is born from love and empathy for your fellow man. Or
do you feel hatred at the perpetrators? Hatred is a bad thing and
though it is hard, you must not allow yourself to fall into such a trap.
Hatred is a very negative emotion and negativity can only ever produce
more negativity. And the people who are carrying out this madness in the
world want you to hate them. They dont care who your hatred is directed
at, even if it is directed at them, just so long as you hate something
or someone. They just want the negative energy to keep flowing. Do not
hate your enemies. George W Bush is a genocidal maniac, but dont hate
him for it, love him and pity him for being so misguided. Dont hate him
and show anger born from hatred or blood lust. Hatred empowers your
enemies against you and such demonstrations only provoke retaliation.
The
only real way to defeat the NWO and stop the fscist malaise that is
creeping across our earth is to address the root cause of the problem.
To cut the head off the snake. And that problem is the global monetary
system and those who control it because the meglomanics who are creating
this mayhem in the world are, and have always been the criminal banking
elite consisting of families such as the Rockefellers and the
Rothschilds and this can be amply proven. These people have trampled on
the entire human race, they have sold us out, in more ways than you may
ever believe. The Rothschild family alone has managed to horde over one
half of the earths entire wealth in the last 300 years by means of lies
and deception and has the blood of quite literally millions on the
hands. The goal of these elite international criminals is to microchip
the entire population of earth and to eliminate those who rests to total
control over humanity can be placed in their hands. These are extremely
sick and ruthless people who care nothing for anyone who is not part of
their club. What is needed to fix the problems is a global revolution
of the people, but it does not need to be a bloody battle, in fact not a
single shot even needs to be fired. All that is required is for people
to wake up and stop going along with the system. Stop agreeing with what
is being done to the world and its people. For just one week even,
stand up and say no, we wont do this any more. Get yourself a supply of
food and stay home, for a week. Dont go out and be a 'consumer". Dont
watch TV, dont go to work, dont buy any gas, dont buy alchohol or go
shopping at all. Just do enough to keep the essential sevices operating.
Can you imagine what the elite would do and what could be achieved with
just one week of global non compliance? One week of global non
compliance by the people would bring the entire Global elite to their
knees and utterly defeat their new world order in on fell swoop. Then if
people forgot all about what the TV told them was right and helped each
other instead of profitting from each other in order to by more useless
trinkets the entire system of slavery and control would come crashing
down like a house of cards. The only power that the ruling elite have
over the peoples of the world is the power we ourselves grant to them.
All that is needed to fix it and stop the NWO in its tracks is for the
people of the world to stand united in an act of Non Violent, Non
compliance. A simple case of No Sir, we will not do this any more.
