2012 ~ The Great Equalizer
By Aluna Joy Yaxkin ~ November 2009
"The sky is falling. the sky is falling, said Chicken Little." Do you
remember reading that fairy tale? Boy, I do. Do you remember Saturday
afternoons, being mesmerized by the old black and white scary movies
that played when we were growing up? I had nightmares about giant
spiders taking over the world for years. What were our parents
thinking letting us read and watch such things!
Oh . . . and do you remember those atom bomb drills in school? You
know . . . the ones where the alarm would make you jump out of your
skin, while you were being asked to slip under your desk. How dumb I
felt crouched under my flimsy, school desk. I knew that if a bomb
where to go off any where near my school, I was going to be toast.
That school desk was no comfort to me. It didn't stop me from wishing
that my parents would build a bomb shelter in the back yard like
everyone else. Hey, I was a little kid back then . . . and the adults
should be keeping us safe, right? Now Hollywood is making new films to scare the livin' daylights out of
us! I think it is about time that we all realize that we have
inherited a bum, fear-based agenda. We have been programmed from birth
to believe in the apocalypse, catastrophe, judgment day, devastation,
all over mayhem, and the end of the world. If we are not buying it
anymore, what are we going to do about it? Recently, we created this Y2K thing, so we could remember something
really important. The fear around Y2K had tons of folks running around
like powerless victims. They were running up their credit cards to buy
survival supplies. They thought the world was ending, so they would
not have to pay for their bills. They tricked themselves into
believing that they didn't have to be responsible for their actions!
The ET's were going to save them anyway, right?! Just prior to Y2K, I wrote an article called "Fear is our enemy, and
Chaos is our Friend". Ok, the title is a bit cheesy, but it got
published all over the world. Then came the hate mail. Some called me
a dumb, New Age blonde, and I was going to be responsible for people
not being prepared for this horrible event. It didn't bother me. I
just sat back, because I knew what was coming. Well we know what
happened don't we? Y2K came and went without the sky falling or the
computers crashing. A bunch of survival companies retired in luxury
after this one, but many individuals were left with huge financial and
karmic debts to pay. Where was I for Y2K? I decided to run the other direction away from
Y2K. I was up in the Chiapas Highlands in Mexico having a once in a
life time experience in a little church called San Juan Chamula. The
Maya people were out in full force to celebrate the millennium. We
were the only gringos there. I have never experienced anything like
this since. It was powerful. Then, at the stroke of midnight, we
danced in the main square to salsa band wearing pink satin suits. It
was a priceless and surreal moment. The really ironic thing was that
my fairly conscious house sitter back home in Sedona felt like he had
hit the jack pot. He was on my roof at midnight ready to watch the
crash of the century. Yep . . . he had a year's worth of food stored
in my house . . . a house that he thought I would not return to. Boy,
was he embarrassed when I came home. Oh yeah . . . I had a few
apologies in my in-box when I got home too. That was nice. Now we have the looming presence of a simple, but ominous, date on the
calendar. December 21, 2012. There is huge and unnecessary commotion
about who is right about this date by the way. Many are calling this
time "The end of days", or "The end of time". The Mayas call this 2012
frenzy a fabrication of the Gringos. They themselves know that the
earth has always changed, and civilizations rise and fall over and
over. The planet warms up and cools down with or without humanity and
technology. It is a natural cycle that has always existed on the
earth. Yes, it is true. We are coming to a reboot of a huge cycle of
time, but this is not to be feared. This time is to be respected and
celebrated. It is time for us to grow up, and let go of the catastro-
phobia and become the truth of who we are . . . and that is the co-
creators of this reality! It is time to have a little respect for the
resources on Earth, not because we want to save our skins, but because
it is the right thing to do! OK, let's have a serious intellectual moment here. I am not the only
one who feels this way. Joseph Robert Jochmans wrote . . . "The Hopi
and Mayan Elders DO NOT prophesize that everything will come to an
end. Rather, this is a time of transition from one World Age into
another. The message they give concerns our making a choice of how we
enter the future ahead. Our moving through with either resistance or
acceptance will determine whether the transition will happen with
cataclysmic changes or gradual peace and tranquility. The same theme
can be found reflected in the prophecies of many other Native American
visionaries from Black Elk to Sun Bear." P.S. I put this last bit in here just in case you were beginning to
think I am just a brainless, idealistic New Ager. Ok, I admit it . . .
I am an idealist. But I would rather shoot for the stars, and have
paradise here and now, rather than dodge earthquakes, burning hot lava
flows and rising oceans. Aren't we here to live in bliss and create
heaven on Earth? Isn't one of the functions of the Maya Calendar to
bring about harmony in all life? Hey, don't let me stop you. If drama and scaring yourself silly is
entertaining for you, go ahead and knock yourself out. But don't think
for one second that December 22nd, 23rd or the 24th isn't coming, or
that you won't have to pay your bills and uphold your obligations. You
are the cause of your own effect! The sad thing here is that humanity didn't learn from the Y2K scare,
and 2012 is taking its place. Fear is becoming big business, and I am
scrambling to get out of they way of this roller coaster ride. It
doesn't sound like any fun to me. If you think people made money off
of theY2K fear tactics, then watch out, 2012 is the mother of all
scary prophesies, and it has just begun! Fear is very good for the
economy. Watch out for the expanding number of local, corner, survival
stores and the mass exodus from the rising water. I think it might be
a good time to move back to the beach. No one will be there. Many metaphysical and intellectual teachers out there are clamoring to
align themselves to be the authority on 2012. Everyone wants a piece
of the action. It is the old, snake oil sellers reincarnated. Even
Nostradamus is rolling over in his grave wanting a piece of this
action! There are the books on 2012 and the survival workshops. There
are DVDs and CDs and YouTube videos telling you the sky is falling,
and if you watch this, maybe you will feel safe. There are
astrologers, numerologists, meteorologists, geologists, and a whole
horde of "experts" telling you why you should buy their stuff, go to
their workshops, and how you too need to high tail it for high
country. Haven't we learned by now that when we go into fear that it
blocks us from hearing our own inner truth? Do you want to feel SAFE?
It is simple . . . stay in your heart and listen to the truth within. The fact of the matter is that no one could, or can be, an authority
on 2012. The closest we can get to an authority on 2012 and our
possible future is the Maya Elders themselves. After all, it is their
culture that the date 2012 came from . . . or did it? It does not
matter who is right, and who is wrong. We all have a right to our
unique perspectives. But our differences in beliefs do not change the
fact that this shift is happening no matter what, and if we like it or
not. Jesus said "Keep your lamps lit". In other words, keep your
hearts open, and be in a state of readiness, because no one will know
the day or the hour. Our attraction to the 2012 phenomena is giving
our overly active minds some comfort by thinking that we know what is
happening. The fact is that no one knows what the future holds for us.
The future does not exist. We create our future as we go . . . Step by
step. This, my friends, is the beauty of this incredible time! 2012 will
become a great harmonizer, equalizer and unifier of humanity. Egos
that are tied up in being the leading authority with find themselves
so far out on the preverbal limb that they will discover themselves in
a huge and very real recession . . . the post Maya 2012 recession that
is. They will have cried "wolf" one too many times, and this little
red riding hood doesn't buy it any more! I am over the fairy tails and the camp fire scary stories. In fact, it
is time that we ALL get over it, and get on with it. It is time that
we grow up and come to terms with who we are as a human race. The fact
is that we are living masters, but somehow along the way, we got
caught up with running away from the boogie man. It is time for us to
come back together as a team, of equals and soul family, with a common
goal that supports peace and harmony on Earth. It is time to quit
following the few self-elected leaders like lost sheep, and begin to
follow our hearts. We have grown past the need for Gurus. We are
becoming living masters, so we better start acting like it. Don't you
feel it is time? We have a great opportunity RIGHT NOW, and you don't want to miss it.
We can come together, and begin to create a new and better world . . .
together. We can do this without self righteousness, spiritual
arrogance, competition or making one another right or wrong. We can
also create Heaven on Earth without playing follow the leader or even
trashing the leader. Maybe this time we can get down to the real
reason why we are ALL here . . . and that is to create paradise
together. After all, the World is what WE make of it . . . isn't it?
Hey, you didn't really think the world got this way all by itself did
you? Come December 21, 2012, I am going to be in my favorite spot in the
whole world: Palenque, Mexico. I will be celebrating the end of it
all . . . the tall tale about 2012 that is. I won't be sitting at home
armed to protect my 10 year supply of food stored in the basement. I
won't be in a bomb shelter waiting out the end of an age. I am going
to be cerebrating the new age and creating paradise, because I
CAN . . . and You can too. Will you join me? Aluna Joy Yaxk'in is an internationally known author, spiritual life
