If we may, we’d like to get on the soapbox for a minute. Have you heard all of the horror stories about 2012 and the impending apocalypse? Yeah, us too. Are you wondering what’s it’s all about? Scared that you need a bomb shelter? Running out and buying survival kits?
Hold up. In astrology, 2012 represents something completely different. It’s not the end of the world, but it does mark an energetic shift that’s occurring on our planet – and it’s an important time in history.
What 2012 truly represents is the movement away from world suffering and selfishness into a new phase of human consciousness. People are beginning to wake up from their slumber, adopt new ideas about community and sustainability, and are ditching their selfish and destructive ways. Sure, this change won’t happen overnight, but it’s been brewing for a while. 2012 marks the beginning of this planetary transformation and is a time to consider how you, as an individual, can change your own attitudes, beliefs, habits, or goals in order to reflect a better energy into the world.
As we can see, starting wars, fighting over oil, leaving people hungry, and destroying our planet isn’t working. So 2012 marks the beginning of when this is going to start shifting. People are realizing that love is more important than having power; that people are more important than possessions; and that peace is more important than being right.
So the next time someone starts talking nonsense about the end of the world, set them straight. And think about what you can do to be part of this global change next year.
