Cosmic Consciousness

Let’s delve more deeply into the possible linkages among Earth changes, Mayan end-cycle solar activity, and human intervention.  Perhaps these linkages may lead us to insight into the second prophesized outcome of the Maya end-cycle.  The new cosmic Mayan cycle is to bring the endowment of cosmic consciousness upon our historically war-like human race.
Well, what is the mechanism triggering solar activity?  If the Earth sciences say solar activity triggers Earth magnetic disturbance, then what triggers solar magnetic disturbance – what triggers the Sunspot mini-cycles and its megacycles of magnetic polarity reversal?
Answer – Solar activity cycles are triggered by electromagnetic disturbances emanating from the core (“Sun”) of the Milky Way Galaxy itself!
Oh, you didn’t know the Galaxy has a “core or center” which functions as an “Sun”, emanating frequencies of electromagnetic energy?
Well, any school student could have told you, if only they had been so taught.
It’s okay! We’re only an entry level intelligent species anyway.
How do we know the electromagnetic disturbances affecting the Sun come from the Galactic center?
One reason – they are so regular, and come in cosmic-clockwork cycles.
Another reason – the Mayan calendar, a most advanced piece of work,
has the foresight to tell us so.
Do you really think all human knowledge develops as modern science advances?
No – some knowledge develops as modern humans recognize it already is available.
Every 11.5 years or so, solar activity (sun sports) flare.  Every 3553 years (approximately), the Sun’s magnetic field reverses.  That is no accident.  That’s the Galactic center at work in our cosmic clock.
Oh, there’s lots of science to be discovered, believe me.  Lot’s of denial to let go of.
And it gets better.  At the end of every Mayan Long Count, and the end of every Mayan mega-cycle of 26,000 years or so, a cosmic Mayan cycle ends and a new cycle starts.
At that end-cycle moment, electromagnetic beams from the Galactic center
swing into our quadrant of the Universe, into our solar system.
The electromagnetic beams from the galactic center may disturb the magnetic fields of the Sun twist the magnetic fields of the Earth, and trigger Earth changes.
The same electromagnetic beams from the galactic center may trigger an onset of cosmic consciousness on Earth.
The process of changeover at Mayan end-cycles is one big electromagnetic phenomenon, emanating from the galactic Sun.
The Mayan calendar is both an astronomical and a spiritual galactic map, and can help us access Spirit’s orientation in this coming transformation.

So what are these galactic beams through which Maya cosmology say we are passing?
Cosmologist Brian Swimme tells us in The Mayan Factor, that prophetically key vision crafted by the cosmologist formerly known as Jose Arguelles, now Pacal Votan, King of Palenque, Yucatan in the Seventh Century AD.
Galactic beams, and their effects on the dynamics of our Sun, are not unknown to recent science.
“…modern science has never spoken of such a beam in the way the Maya do.  But physicists have recently become aware of ways we are influenced by beams passing through the galaxy, and this is by itself new.  Current astrophysics describes these beams as density waves that sweep through the galaxy and that influence galactic evolution.  For instance, our Sun’s birth was a result of this wave.  The density wave passed through and ignited a giant star, which exploded and evoked our sun’s existence.

“In fact, all star formation is due primarily to these beams sweeping through our galaxy.  We can begin to formulate the notion of the galaxy as an organism, one involved in its own development.  We speak of the “self organizing” dynamics of the galaxy.  Or, from a more organismic perspective, we speak of the galaxy as unfolding – the births of stars are pictured as part of the galactic epigenesis.  The Sun, then, is seen as activated by dynamics governed by the galactic center; just so the eye of a frog is seen as activated by dynamics governed by its own organismic center.

“The obvious question is this: Just how far does the galactic dynamism go with respect to the development of the Sun and its evolving planets?  That is, do the galaxy’s dynamics have only to do with the ignition of the Sun after which the Sun and the Earth are on their own?  Or is the galactic beam involved with the evolution of life?

Swimme affirms that galactic beams have been integrally involved in the dynamics of Earth in the entire 4.55 billion years of the Sun’s existence.
“First, it can be said quite simply that the galaxy is continually involved with the evolution of Earth and its life.  The galactic density beams have swept through the galaxy over the entire 4.55 billion years of the Sun’s existence, and whenever these [beams] pass through the Sun, they alter its dynamics and thus alter the radiant energy that bathes the Earth.  I have no doubt that, as evolutionary begins to reflect on this, they will articulate the ways in which the development of life on Earth has been shaped by these dynamics.”

The limitations of the modern scientific method itself has restricted is knowledge about the existence and nature of a galactic beam such as the Maya describe.
“We need to recognize that it was simply impossible for modern science to notice the existence of a galactic beam such as the Maya describe.  Modern science focused on material, on its change of position.  All qualities – colors, smells, emotions, feelings, and intuitions – were termed secondary, and dismissed.  That is, we committed ourselves from the beginning to a mode of consciousness that was never going to recognize the galactic beam.”

The disciplines of modern science and of Mayan cosmology, however, provide us with complementary insights into the galactic beam, a unitary phenomenon that triggers both Earth changes and cosmic consciousness.  Contemporary science focuses on the beam as a physical phenomenon, accounting for Earth changes.  Mayan cosmology focuses on the same galactic beam as a psychic phenomenon, enabling the evolution of human consciousness.
“The Maya were a people intoxicated with a different cultural aim which required an entirely different development of consciousness.  Where the modern scientists have been able to detect experimentally the physical effects of density beams sweeping through the galaxy, the Maya were able to detect experientially beams with different efficacies, beams that influenced not the birth and functioning of stars, but the birth and functioning of ideas, of visions, of convictions.  Or rather, what I myself think is the case: both the modern scientists and the Maya respond to the same beams.  The modern scientists developed a mode of consciousness enabling them to articulate the physical effects of these [Galactic] beams; the Maya developed a consciousness enabling them to articulate the psychic effects of these beams.”

What is more, there may be galactic “seasons,” eras that favor a particular type or quality of activity in the galaxy.  At the physical level, for example, hydrogen atoms appeared at a specific time in the creative cycle of the galaxy.  There may be as well, seasons for the creation of cultures, ideas, and thoughts – human consciousness.
“The question immediately surfaces in the western mind: ‘There may be seasons for the birth of atoms, or of galaxies, or of primitive cells.  But what about my thoughts?  What about human culture?  Are these affected by galactic times?’”

Mayan cosmology spoke, then, of interaction with the Galactic Mind, much as Maya culture interacted consciously with the mind of our Sun. Through the Sun, the Maya accessed the deeper will of the galaxy, the organism of which we are part.  The modern science of consciousness – paraphysics and parapsychology – now informs us that thoughts, feelings, and ideas, like photons, can be transmitted.
The galactic core can transmit cosmic consciousness, as well as physically disrupting Earth, planetary and Sun changes, through its beams,
“…here we deal with the deepest reaches of the western psyche’s repression.  The Maya felt they were engaged with the mind of the Sun, which manifested for them the mind and heart of the galaxy.  The Maya felt that the galaxy had desires.  Modern scientists heard that and relegated the Maya to the ‘fairy tale’ bin.  But our rejection of their wisdom only reveals our dangerously lopsided psychic condition….

“Our difficulty stems from our cultural mistake in thinking of hydrogen atoms and stars and so forth as “just physical”, and ourselves and our psychic life as transcendent, as utterly disconnected from the universe….

“Within this perspective, ‘feelings’ are not fabricated in the transcendent human mind.  Instead, feelings are transmitted, just as photons are transmitted.  This is really the most ordinary experience.  A person standing in the presence of a magnificent granite cliff is suffused with all sorts of feelings; these are the feelings that the mountain has transmitted to the human.

Jose Arguelles gives us the insight that the Maya culture was galactically informed.
“Precisely, because it is based on the principle of harmonic resonance, a civilization such as the Mayan can be described as galactically informed.  That is, by the principle of harmonic resonance, there is a two-way information wave that ripples to and from the individual being to the collective or planetary mind, and from the planetary mind through the Sun to the galactic core.”

Arguelles integrates the sciences of communication and cosmology in illuminating the mechanisms by which the Maya may have exercised their own cosmic awareness of the influence of the galactic core, known as “Hunab Ku” in the Mayan cosmology.
“The sole purpose of the continuous emission of intelligent wave-formation from Hunab Ku, the galactic core and cosmic radio station, is the superior coordination of the member organisms, the star systems…

“The capacity to maintain direct communications and to continue to establish and extend realization of the whole is the conscious attainment of harmony.  The end of the process may be nothing more that a transcendent passing of the entire galaxy into an inconceivable stage of harmonic synchronization.

“To be a diviner of harmony, a Maya, would then be to know directly the harmonic frequencies of a level or stage of being, and, in a manner of speaking, to be able to tune into and even take on the qualities of that level or stage of being.

“Because of the attainment of such knowledge, one of the powers of Maya would be that of resonant transduction.  Through direct knowledge of wave harmonics and frequency changes, resonant transduction is the ability to apply this knowledge and pass directly from one condition of being to another, from one star system to another.

One aspect of the Mayan end-cycle cosmic consciousness, then, may be humanity’s opening sensitivity to the psychic components of the galactic beam-wave.  Our civilization may learn to re-acquire the sort of conscious sensitivity to the mind and will of the galaxy that the Mayas may have possessed.
The end of the 26,000 year Mayan/Galactic cycle during the 2012 AD time window has, according to Arguelles, a dominant goal of the quickening and transformation of our universe.
“Spun through the increasingly accelerated phases of the thirteen cycles of this beam, our planet has arrived at an advanced stage of conscious synchronization of component elements.  This has been brought about by the most complex forms of DNA, inducing an artificial leap – the sprawl of civilization – that in actuality has but one goal – the quickening and transformation of matter.

Remember again the significance of the Trinity nuclear bomb test on July 16, 1945.  This was the first release into the Earth’s environment of high-level electromagnetic energy.  According to Arguelles, it was also the start of a bifurcation of human endeavor into global aggrandizement of power, and increased psychic sensitivity.
“Once this critical transformation of matter was attained on July 16, 1945 [Trinity Test – date of first testing of atomic bomb at Trinity, New Mexico], two basic processes were set in motion. One involved the materialist aggrandizement of power represented by the entrenchment of the prevalent global industrial-social order; the other involved the dissonant quickening of the resonant field of the planet resulting in a wide spectrum of effects from UFO sightings to increased psychism to tectonic plate shifts and terrorism.”

A powerful example of how the influences of the galactic beam may work in integrating this bifurcation between the forces of death and the forces of life affirmation involves the present day Maya and the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency.   It has been reported that the CIA may have been an architect and funder of a genocidal war against the Maya from the 1960s through 1996 in Guatemala.  If this genocide is a covert operation on a classic CIA model, the genocide of the Maya may have been undertaken to deny the Guatemalan rebels a safe haven among the Maya.
At a deeper death-force level, the CIA’s Mayan genocide may have been undertaken to destroy the last living culture practicing the Mayan calendar.  If the Maya were killed off, this would functionally weaken the cultural base within which the Mayan calendar still functions.  The Mayan calendar, however, may be a gift left for us in time by galactic wisdom, so that humanity may more intelligently navigate the 26,000 end-cycle.  If the CIA had been successful in totally obliterating the Mayan culture, the death-force would have been more successful in ensuring that our world would end in cataclysmic Earth changes rather than cosmic consciousness.
The New York Times of February 26, 1999, one day after the Traditional Kiche Maya New Year, reports
GUATEMALA CITY – A truth commission report has concluded that the United States gave money and training to a Guatemalan military that committed “acts of genocide” against the Mayan people during the most brutal armed conflict in Latin America, Guatemala’s 36-year civil war.

The report of the independent Historical Clarification Commission, which was released on Thursday, contradicts years of official denial about the torture, kidnapping and execution of thousands of civilians in a war that the commission estimated killed more than 200,000 Guatemalans.

Although the broad outlines of American support to Guatemala’s military have been known, the nine-volume report confirms that the CIA aided Guatemalan military forces.

The commission listed the American training of the officer corps in counterinsurgency techniques as a key factor “which had a significant bearing on human rights violations during the armed confrontation.”

The commission, established as a part of a United Nations-supervised peace accord that ended the war in 1996, concluded that the government or allied paramilitary groups were to blame for more than 90 percent of the 42,000 human rights violations, 29.000 of which resulted in deaths or missing persons. That attributes a somewhat higher percentage of deaths to the government and its allies than a report last year by the Roman Catholic Church that examined human rights abuses.

The commission specifically named military intelligence as the organizer of illegal detentions, torture, forced disappearances and executions, and it said that many massacres were a direct result of government policy. It stopped short, however, of identifying individuals responsible for various massacres.

As the conclusions of the long-awaited report were read at a solemn ceremony at the National Theater, human rights workers, relatives of victims and others among the more than 2,000 people broke into standing ovations, sobs, shouts and chants of “Justice! Justice!”

The outbursts repeatedly interrupted speeches as the president and cabinet members sat silently on the theater’s first row.

While the scope of the bloodshed had been generally known, the report is the first by an internationally supported panel to lay out the extent of the violence and pin it on the government and its military allies. In unexpectedly strong language, it describes the Guatemalan policy at the height of the war as a policy of genocide.

The report’s estimate of more than 200,000 deaths is slightly higher than previous figures, and the number of documented massacres substantially exceeds figures used in previous examinations.

The war, which began in 1960, pitted a rightist military-controlled government against a classic Latin American left-wing insurgency. Largely a rural war carried out in the hinterlands where Mayan Indians lived, the military assumed that the Mayans sympathized with the insurgents and provided them with supplies, intelligence and shelter.

As a consequence, entire Mayan villages were attacked, burned and inhabitants were slaughtered in an effort to deny the guerrillas protection. The report said the Mayan population paid the highest price, when the military identified them as natural allies of the guerrillas. The result, the report said, was an “aggressive, racist and extremely cruel nature of violations that resulted in the massive extermination of defenseless Mayan communities.”

Christian Tomuschat, the German jurist who led the commission’s 18-month investigation, said, “The results of our investigation demonstrate that in general, the excuse that midlevel commanders acted with a wide margin of autonomy – an excuse used in an attempt to justify what happened as “excesses” and “error” not ordered by superiors – is unsubstantiated and totally lacking any basis.”

The commission recommended a national reparations program for victims and exhumations of “hundreds” of clandestine cemeteries. It called on President Alvaro Arzu Irigoyen and the ex-guerrilla commanders to assume responsibility in the name of the state and ask all Guatemalans for forgiveness.

The three-member commission and an international staff of 272 workers made extensive use of declassified documents from the United States. American assistance fortified the Guatemalan armed forces with aid and training in its anti-Communist campaign. On Thursday, Tomuschat said the commission’s investigation also found that until the mid-1980s, American companies and government officials “exercised pressure to maintain the country’s archaic and unjust socioeconomic structure” and that the CIA supported illegal counterinsurgency operations here.

Besides Tomuschat, the commission members were Edgar Balsells, a lawyer, and Otilia Lux Coti, a leading Mayan educator, both of Guatemala.

The commission did not give specific names of human rights violators, the result of military opposition during the peace negotiations to pointing fingers at specific people.

But some victims’ families said no true reconciliation can be achieved in Guatemala without judicial accountability.

“There has to be an end to impunity,” said Helen Mack, whose sister, Myrna, was stabbed and killed in 1990, it is believed, for her research on the refugees driven from their homes by the army. The case resulted in the only conviction yet of an army official for human rights violations, and Ms. Mack is pursuing the trial of three other officers for her sister’s murder.

On Thursday, the weight of nine years of struggle with Guatemala’s ineffective judicial system seem to fall on her as she broke into tears at the National Theater as the commission’s conclusions were read.

“We the victims feel vindicated,’ she later said. “No one can now tell us we’re following lies or ghosts anymore.”

Guatemalan officials said on Thursday that they would have a response after they have studied the report. The army leadership has remained defiant, accusing international and national “actors” for their roles in the violence and insisting the military acted under a constitutional mandate to defend the state from communism.

Asked about the accusations against the CIA by the commission, the spokesman for the intelligence agency, Bill Harlow, said, “Since we have not seen the report, it would be inappropriate for us to comment.”

Donald Planty, the U.S. ambassador, said, “I believe that the report’s focus is appropriate, that these were abuses committed by Guatemalans against other Guatemalans – the result of an internal conflict.”

Defense Minister Hector M. Barrios, who has promised his own report on the war dead and injured, said Thursday, “I see as positive any effort that is made on behalf of peaceful co-existence in Guatemala.”

Arzu left without comment after shaking hands with members of the commission and those formally receiving the report – Alvaro de Soto, a senior U.N. official, and representatives of the Guatemalan government and the ex-guerrilla group, Guatemalan National Revolutionary Unity.

Aides said protocol prevented the president from personally accepting the report, but that decision was seen by many here as intentionally distancing the government from the commission’s findings. At several points on Thursday, people in the theater shouted for the president to get up on stage and receive the report.

Foreign Affairs Minister Eduardo Stein said the government was already implementing some of recommendations, including compensation for victims, judicial reform and changes in the military. Political repression has greatly been reduced in Guatemala, by most accounts, and the guerrillas have regrouped as a political party. There has also been a rise of Indigenous rights and human rights organizations – the changing times were underscored on Thursday when scores of Guatemalans openly confronted government officials in angry outbursts.

But the country is still wrestling with its transition to a full democratic state. Stark poverty and economic inequalities remain. Despite a requirement under the peace accords that the army’s size and role be reduced, experts monitoring the progress say that there has been checkered compliance and that the army still has a hold on internal affairs, rather than being focused solely on the defense of the nation.

And just how fragile the peace is was shown last year when a Roman Catholic bishop and leading defender of human rights, Juan Jose Gerardi, was beaten to death with a concrete block just days after making public the results of a three-year investigation of human rights abuses during the war. That report, sponsored by the Catholic church, identified specific military officers and guerrilla groups, and church and human rights groups say they believe the killing was meant to pressure them into renewed silence.

The most heartfelt applause at the National Theater Thursday came when the bishop’s name was mentioned as yet another political victim. Many here feel the truth commission’s report can help the country’s efforts toward change, but only if it is etched into the public consciousness.

“This is not the end of the work,” said Feliciana Macario, a board member of a survivors’ group called National Widows Committee, which seeks reparations for the loss of homes and land and “moral damages,” such as the psychological trauma suffered by orphaned children. “To us, this is the beginning of another struggle.”

If you still believe the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (and its cousins in the intelligence community) to be antiseptic guardians of the truth, please refer to the written works of former CIA agent James Agee, such as CIA Diary.  There is little doubt that the profile, methodology, and utter depravity of the CIA’s genocide of the Maya is the same as CIA covert operations which Agee describes taking place in developing nations over the last four decades.  James Agee has called for a worldwide repudiation of the CIA, which he describes as the single source generator of human war on the planet.
The coming to public light and recognition of the Maya genocide may be illustrative of the workings of the Galactic beam-wave in the realm of human politics and war, particularly environmental war.  The Maya genocide story publicly surfaced in February 1999, at the height of the galactic core alignment.
The influence of the psychic content of the galactic beam-wave may have brought the Maya genocide to public light.  In the same way, the effects on human consciousness of the galactic beam-wave may deconstruct the global war-like mindset behind Environmental warfare, and disassemble its global weapons systems.
What is striking about the Mayan cosmology is its awareness of the pervasive influence over human affairs of electromagnetic energy, which can simultaneously produce physical events in the Earth environment, and induce consciousness into new levels of universe appreciation.
“According to the Mayan Factor, we live at the bottom of an electromagnetic ocean.  What we call the physical plane Earth is itself the ocean floor, while we, like squids or semi-blinded denizens, swarm about our little ways; only dimly aware that we swim and move across the bottom of a vast, multi-dimensional electromagnetic ocean.  How odd we must seem to those who swim and delve in currents far above us, and what can we say about those beings who are beyond the surface?  What must they see?”

Mayan cosmology and concepts of the galactic beam-waves of electromagnetic energy work integrate the Earth sciences and psychology with the traditional mystical outlook that all things are alive and think.
But if the galactic beam is to create both Earth changes and cosmic consciousness, is that not almost a contradiction in terms?  Why would not our civilization regress to anarchy in consciousness as our planet is violently restructured?
One Mayan cosmologist analogizes the cosmic transition of Earth to an upgrade of computer hardware, and a coming “online” to galactic consciousness.

“Before the end of the year 2012, the ‘program’ we call civilization will be complete. A new galactic program will be ‘opened’ at that time. The ‘upgrading’ of the Earth’s ‘hardware’ called by some “Earth Changes” and the new ‘operating system’ will be put to the test. The Earth will be
‘galactically on-line’ by the year 2013. What will happen after that is beyond our ability to imagine. Can a baby in the womb imagine what life will be like after its birth?

This insight suggests there is a trade-off between Earth changes and cosmic consciousness.  If our human civilization experiences the increasing effects of the galactic beam-wave with resistance and death-force, then our devastation becomes greater.  Conversely, if our civilization reacts receptively to the galactic beam-wave, the outcomes may be more consciousness transformation rather than physical destruction.
At the microcosmic, personal level, the same may be said of individuals as we enter the galactic beam-wave.  If our individual mind-set is toward greed, aggression, separation, we may experience greater personal disintegration during these end-cycle times.  If we attune ourselves to the cosmic frequencies of the galactic beam-wave (call it the “Mind of God”), we may evolve into a more cosmic personal consciousness and transform into a new being in a new era.  One can have a personal “doomsday,” or a personal transcendence.
Consciousness is functional and practical and mystical at once.

What time is it in galactic time?  Well, recent advances in astronomy suggest that our alignment with the galactic center or equator has actually begun, occurring in the 1998-2001 time window.  This is a scholarly quibble with ancient Mayan astrological calculations.  The end of the Mayan Long Count, and if its 26,000 year mega-cycle still occurs on December 22, 2012 (some say December 21, 2012).
These subtle re-calculations mean that the effects of the new Galactic beam have already begun, and will be effective across a time window of several decades on either side of the 2012 AD date.
“The present alignment began with the September equinox in 1998. The first “phase” of the alignment with is complete with the June solstice in 1999. The “complete” alignment is comprised of thirteen equinoxes and solstices from September 1998 through September 2001.

“The disk of the Sun, at the exact moment of the December solstices, began to align with the galactic equator around the time of Harmonic Convergence in 1987. This event was also indicated by the Maya Calendar, a useful tool for measuring the flow of galactic energies.

[The Harmonic Convergence, August 16-17, 1987, was according to Arguelles, the date on which humanity received the “Galactic imprint”.]

“The disk of the Sun, at the exact moment of the December solstices, will be completing the alignment with the galactic equator at the December solstice in 2012. This is recognized as the ending date of a profound Maya Calendar cycle

“These astronomical alignments between the solstice Sun and the galactic equator suggest the timing for the “reception” of galactic energies and codes into our system. Accessing these codes and frequencies can be done with the proper use of the Maya Calendar.

“There are two popular misconceptions regarding the Galactic Alignment. One of these is that the alignment is with the Galactic Center. It is not; it is actually with the Galactic Equator.

“The other example of misinformation is that the galactic alignment occurs in 2012 and this is why the Maya Calendar ends then. There are two problems with this. The alignment occurs a good thirteen years before 2012. The Maya calendar is not off by this many years. This thirteen-year difference is actually accounted for in the Maya calendar. This information is available to those who have been initiated into how the Maya Calendar really works.

“The 2012 date for the galactic alignment suggests that the Maya Calendar is based on an astronomical alignment that ONLY takes place from the Earth’s perspective. The equinoxes and solstices are Earth events. This implies that the Maya calendar is Earth based. This also implies that the Maya Calendar only works on the Earth. This view reveals a lack of
appreciation and understanding regarding the true “galactic” nature of the Maya calendar.”

The Mayan calendar is a cosmic tool for navigating our way through a Galactic reality.   Prophetic traditions, including the Tibetan, the I Ching (Terence McKenna), the Egyptian, the Aztec, the Judeo-Christian and many others, seem to converge on an end-cycle transformation of our human experience.  Each tradition has its variations.  As a whole, they point to a unitary truth.  The Aztec calendar, for example, may be based on the Pleiades, rather than on the galaxy as is the Mayan tradition.  The eternal universe cycles in each tradition may represent the ongoing tension between Light and darkness, which propels our evolution.

What will the new age of cosmic consciousness look like?

Pacal Votan, formerly known as Jose Arguelles, offers some pictures of the Solar Age on Earth.  The Solar Age will have its scientific and perceptual breakthroughs and evolution in human psycho-sensory resonance.
Prophecy commentator Peter Petrisko suggests that if you are unsure how reversing magnetic fields can affect the human mind, think of trying to “re-boot” your brain, as though it were a computer.
“The effect of a magnetic reversal on humans is less known. Confusion might reign, and some theorize a complete 'reboot' of the human mind - the brain IS known to contain magnetite - might occur. However, as the field decreases (before a 'reversal'), one could surmise what may happen by looking at a recent experiment by Dr. Valerie Hunt. Hunt had a room constructed in which the magnetic field intensity could be varied. The following, as spelled out in her book, ''Infinite Mind'', was observed
“When ‘the magnetism was decreased, gross incoordination occurred. The entire neurological integrating mechanism was thrown off. Subjects could not balance their bodies; they had difficulty touching finger to nose or performing simple coordinated movements. They lost kinesthetic awareness.’
Could our bodies adjust as a much more gradual, long-term but worldwide decrease in the magnetic field intensity occurred? That may be doubtful, and if so then at what point near the conclusion of this pre-reversal descent would such incoordination sweep over the human race?”

A “Solar” rather than a “Galactic” perspective on the influence of the galactic beam-wave, and the cosmic consciousness it may bring may constrict Peter Petrisko’s suggestion, however.
Pacal Votan, formerly known as Jose Arguelles, reaches for a vision worthy of our evolutionary occasion as the great Mayan cycle inaugurates the Solar Age.  Our inauguration may mean - “At last, Earth will be ready for the emergence into interplanetary civilization.”
“Instead of going to a job at nine o’clock every morning, we shall prepare each day for the celebratory task of ritual sensory attunement to solar galactic pulsation’s.  Through sensory fusion – bringing together of various senses into the experience of synaesthesia – we will realize a synergistic amplification of energy and enjoyment.

“The leisure for doing so will be the natural result of having divested ourselves of an unnecessary military economy and the production of wasteful and even toxic consumer goods that were in total disregard of the reality of the light body.  Nourishing ourselves as simply and as locally as possible, we shall turn our surplus wealth into the research, education, and artistic production necessary for the establishment of a healthy organism in resonant attunement with the Sun and, through the Sun, with the galactic core, Hunab Ku….”

“Then it shall be ready.  The unique moment, the moment of total planetary synchronization, 13.0.0.0.0 on the beam, will arrive – the closing out not only of the Great Cycle, but also of the evolutionary interim called Homo Sapiens.  Amidst festive preparation and awesome galactic-solar signs psychically received, the human race, in harmony with the animal and other kingdoms and taking its rightful place in the great electromagnetic sea, will unify as a single circuit.  Solar and galactic sound transmissions will inundate the planetary field.  At last, Earth will be ready for the emergence into interplanetary civilization.

“Then, as if a switch were being thrown, a great voltage will race through this finally synchronized and integrated circuit called humanity.  The Earth itself will be illumined.  A current charging both poles will race across the skies, connecting the polar auroras in a single brilliant flash.  Like an iridescent rainbow, this circumpolar energy uniting the planetary antipodes will be instantaneously understood as the external projection of the unification of the collective mind of humanity.  In that moment of understanding, we shall be collectively projected into an evolutionary domain that is presently inconceivable.”

What then is the ultimate meaning of diverse prophecies of cataclysmic Earth changes and cosmic consciousness?
One answer is – it all depends on us.  We are responsible for co-creating cataclysm and/or enlightenment on a collective basis and in our individual realities.
The Mayan cosmology suggests that a war-like, heavily armed military industrial complex, intent on destroying key parts of its Earth system and exporting warfare into outer space may not fare very well as the galactic beam-wave intensifies.  Earthly military-industrial civilization may self-destruct, or suffer meltdown, or gradually wither away.  That war-like civilization may implode as human consciousness lifts or as Earth changes make shards of its economic and political base.
That’s the good news.
The bad news may in the end be good news also.
What Earth changes may occur, if any, is indeterminate.  The psychics and the prophecies suggest cataclysmic outcomes may be possible.  If Earth changes do come, perhaps they may be the only mechanism by which our terrestrial eco-cidal culture finally reaches death knell.  We can only hope that an evolution in our consciousness triggered by the galactic beam-wave will deconstruct environmental warfare before it can do harm.
The wisdom of the Galactic Mind is such that if we humans had been cooperative, evolved, peaceful, eco-centric, enlightened, no Earth changes may have come at all.  The galactic beam-wave would meet no resistance from the collective human psyche.  It is the resistance of the war-like segment of the human mind to cosmic consciousness that may probably itself create chaos and cataclysm on Earth.
Our history, to paraphrase, is a riddle wrapped in an enigma.  As a species, we subject ourselves to repeated cycles of war, destruction, rebuilding, only to fall again into war and destruction.  The cosmic reasons for these cycles have not yet registered in our collective consciousness.
We can only hope that this Mayan end-cycle may be the last time around unbroken cycles of collective violence.  In cosmic consciousness, perhaps we can stabilize ourselves in an unbroken cycle of conscious evolution.

Advice for Earth changes? Try receptivity, centered prayer, meditation, Love.  We may actually turn the tide toward Light.
