The last year was a 1 (2 + 0 + 0 + 8 = 1 + 0 = 1)… new beginnings which likewise involve the death of that which was before. Without question we have reached the end of an era… some would say none too soon. We have seen institutions that many have unwittingly considered to be mountains in society dwindle to the mole-hills of their actuality. The entire world economy is an elaborate Ponzi scheme that requires individual faith to keep it afloat. For too damn long, the minstrels have sung about revolution,.. never really knowing it’s just a trip around the sun,.. but now we are on the cusp of a changing age. Being an Aquarian, I have stood on the sidelines whetting my lips in anticipation and rubbing my hands together waiting for my time to come. It is a pivotal time in human evolution and many of us are standing ready to begin the shift into a new way of thinking that is as old as mankind. This is not a political change I’m referring to, but literally an elevation in human consciousness. It has been understood by many that the next transformation to occur in evolution would be of a spiritual nature. People have stood by waiting for the UFOs to land and for the Messiah to arrive or return, not realizing that perhaps ascension may be necessary on our part to meet them. This is the ascension. I’ve written about it for years and only now am feeling that it hasn’t been merely a dream… a vision for a prosperous future… but an actual reality taking place. Consider 2008 to be the funeral for a dinosaur and the birth of the divine. Buildings shook and establishments crumbled. Like any good birth and death there was plenty of blood and mess. This is going to be a good one. Happy New Year.
