"The accurate content of the message for the Maya Prophecy for our times is that the date of December 21, 2012 is nothing more than a general marker, a specific date that infact indicates a whole era, an era of hope, an era of opportunity - the opportunity to re-establish a sense of community amongst all humans of this planet..." -From The Maya Taino Prophecy Initiative, led by Maya Elder Antonio Aj Ik and Taino Elder Miguel Sague - www.mayatainoprophecy.webs.com

December 21, 2012 marks the Shifting of World Ages, a return to zero point, where we officially transition from the current 5,125 year World Age Cycle, and enter into a New World Cycle; marking a new level of our unfoldment as a planetary collective; a new level of our human evolution in concert with our living Universe.

• Knowing when to come in out of the rain;
• Why the early bird gets the worm;
• Life isn't always fair;
• and Maybe it was my fault.

"In these 'beginning times,' we can expect the lifting of veils and the blowing of whistles." - Swami Beyondananda

These are times of revelation, and two things are getting revealed simultaneously: how our power has been taken from us, and how we can reconnect with our Source of true power. As I've likely mentioned many times before, the original meaning of "apocalypse" is "the lifting of the veils." The veils that Swami has called the "irony curtain" are being peeled away, and the sound of whistleblowers blowing whistles can be heard even through the media's blather of babblum.

People who operate in the context of responsibility declare that they are accountable for their interpretations and behavior.

Caring mainly about the ultimate success of their projects and relationships, they are oriented to action and correction rather than explanation and self-protection.
