Steep Uphill Climb to 2012
(Steven McFAdden, October 2002)
The Mayan calendars are an object of intense interest for many thousands of people right now, because they focus upon the watershed date of Dec. 21, 2012. Everything changes by then, it is said. . . . At sunrise on December 21, 2012 � for the first time in 26,000 years � the Sun rises to conjunct the intersection of the Milky Way and the plane of the ecliptic, describing in the sky a great cross of stars and planets. This cosmic cross is considered to be an embodiment of the Sacred Tree, The Tree of Life � a tree remembered in all the world�s spiritual traditions. . . . If the people of the earth can get to this 2012 date in good shape, without having destroyed too much of the Earth, Mr. Barrios said, we will rise to a new, higher level. But to get there we must transform enormously powerful forces that seek to block the way. . . . The date specified in the calendar � Winter Solstice in the year 2012 � does not mark the end of the world. Many outside people writing about the Mayan calendar sensationalize this date, but they do not know. The ones who know are the indigenous elders who are entrusted with keeping the tradition. . . . "Humanity will continue," he contends, "but in a different way. Material structures will change. From this we will have the opportunity to be more human." . . . All the prophecies of the world, all the traditions, are converging now. There is no time for games. The spiritual ideal of this era is action. . . . Many powerful souls have reincarnated in this era, with a lot of power. This is true on both sides, the light and the dark. High magic is at work on both sides. . . . The elder delivered a simple, direct message. He called for human beings to come together in support of life and light. Right now each person and group is going his or her own way. The elder of the mountains said there is hope if the people of the light can come together and unite in some way. . . . But right now the realm of darkness is not interested in this. They are organized to block it. They seek to unbalance the Earth and its environment so we will be unready for the alignment in 2012. . . . Mr. Barrios told his audiences in Santa Fe that we are at a critical moment of world history. "We are disturbed," he said. "We can�t play anymore. Our planet can be renewed or ravaged. Now is the time to awaken and take action." . . . Everyone is needed. . . . According to Mr. Barrios this is a crucially important moment for humanity, and for earth. Each person is important. If you have incarnated into this era, you have spiritual work to do balancing the planet. . . . All you need is within you.

Who appointed this guy king?
(Bob Woodward, in an interview on 60 Minutes, disclosed the following remark by Bush)
President Bush: "I do not need to explain why I say things. -- That's the interesting thing about being the President. -- Maybe somebody needs to explain to me why they say something, but I don't feel like I owe anybody an explanation."

I guess the fact that the Supreme Court appointed him means that he can act like a tyrant. A democratically elected leader would ever say such a thing, for he would realize that he owed the people who elected him an explanation for his actions. Could it be that the Bush-Cheney junta is this confident because they already know the outcome of the 2004 elections?
