2012: The Five W’s and One H (Part Two)
In “2012; The Five W’s and One H” (Part One), I addressed 2012 from the perspective of a, furiously growing, negative energy “snowball” surrounding the subject and what we all can do….what we must do…to combat it.
And, I pointed out good journalism is predicated on The Five W’s and One H principle; who, what, why, where, when and how.
However, the principle is pointless unless the answers come from credible, knowledgeable sources; though, the two do not always go hand in hand.
What most people know about 2012 is that the Mayan calendar ends sometime in 2012 and, like the fabled Y2K, the world is supposed to blow up.
Well, Y2K wasn’t actually supposed to blow up the world but here’s what one credible source had to say about it in an official, governmental statement to the press;
”The Y2K problem is the electronic equivalent of the El Niño and there will be nasty surprises around the globe”.

Of course, people partied like it was 1999…because it was… the clock struck twelve, the new millennium rolled around and absolutely nothing “bad’ happened.
No disrespect to Mr. Hamre but, my point is, everybody can be wrong…even the most high profile of sources.
In that, I want to bring awareness to, even in Metaphysical circles, a little known name; Carlos Barrios.
Senor Barrios, a historian, anthropologist and investigator has emerged from the highlands of Guatemala to become one of the preeminent authorities on 2012…at least, to a few of us who know about him and his incredible work.
For 25 years Senor Barrios studied with traditional Mayan elders and became a Mayan Ajq’ij, a ceremonial priest and spiritual guide, Eagle Clan.
Along with his brother, Gerardo, he has interviewed close to 600 Mayan elders and, according to Senor Barrios, the elders are angry with the anthropologists who visit the temple sites, interpret the signs incorrectly and report those findings to the rest of the world.
The elders believe the world will be transformed as we move into the time of the World of the Fifth Sun (a time of expanded consciousness, a new emergence in human ability to live a harmonic existence with the earth and the bringing about of perfect balance…a fusion of male and female energies, etc.).
Now, much of this might sound like a bunch of colloquial fairy tale woo-woo but if you’ll remember, the whole controversy over 2012 stems from the Mayan calendar systems…of which there are 17 and they are some of the most complex and sophisticated in the world. So accurate, in fact, some of them have precisely charted a time span of more than ten million years complete with the predictions of major, major events. And those predictions have been on the money.
Not so fairy tale sounding anymore is it?
Short of speaking directly to a Mayan elder, Carlos Barrios, after 25 years of study with almost 600 Mayan elders, is the next best credible source.
To sum up the subject…at least for now…of 2012, I’ll do so thusly;
- Who – Everyone of us will be affected by 2012. As Senor Barrios puts it, “Humans will have the chance to be more human”.
- What – 2012. The time of the fifth sun and great change…for the better. The bringing about of balance and harmony.
- When – The latter part of 2012…December 21 to be exact.
- Where – All over the world.
- Why – Because we’re all one and humanity and the world we live in cannot continue until we all “get” that concept and act accordingly.
- How – No one seems to know for sure. I am working on getting the information from Spirit. As soon I have some solid answers, I’ll let you know.
At the end of the day, all the rhetoric about 2012 doesn’t even come close to one statement from Senor Barrios;
“The greatest wisdom is in simplicity. Love, respect, tolerance, sharing, gratitude, forgiveness. It’s not complex or elaborate. The real knowledge is free. It’s encoded in your DNA. All you need is within you. Great teachers have said that from the beginning. Find your heart, and you will find your way.”

Excellent, perfect, just the info I need to share with folks at work. They know me as the “spiritual one” who knows “those” things, so now I have something along what they would consider empirical data,that I may share.
I appreciate you keeping us updated, CBR, it’s soooo helpful to use to stem the tide of negativity!
Q
Thank you for sharing this with us Colette. As a Psychic Intuitive myself & being highly sensitive, I get upset when I see more hoopla & fear being put out there regarding the Mayan Calender & the supposed end of the world in 2012. A few years ago, in one of my meditations, I asked my guides & angels to help me understand what is behind the Mayan Calendar & what really is going to happen. My higher self came through, expressing to me that I lived one of my prior lives as a Mayan. What I told myself was that a shift will occur. A shift within humanity to connect to our higher selves & each other. I also described it as a recycling of sorts. We will go through lessons, as individuals & especially as a group that we’ve gone through before, however with a new perspective, new expectations & new energy. This new era will be a very scary one for many and it is up to people like us to be there to help usher others & help them find their way into this new way of life. Even though it will be a scary time for so many, it will bring us all closer to our true selves, each other, all energies and spirits of goodness, godliness, love & light, and inevitably closer to God. We really have nothing to fear, because this shift will actually bring out the parts of us that too many people hide, but when released it’s the easiest way to be, because it’s truth, it’s natural, it’s meant to be, it’s God within us all to the purest, most enlightened level. This is part of my path, to prepare myself to be there for others who are struggling with the shift, to help dispel fear & bring us back to positivity, light & love, for all. One of the most profound things I also have received during my meditations on this, is that we will lose the “I” mentality & the “we” mentality will be the “norm”. Isn’t this beautiful?
To a mother with two young children and lo-ho-hots of anxiety, this is very reassuring – THANK YOU.
Thank you for sharing. Fear is so crippling. I’v been working on releasing,blocks to my higher self. Fear is a powerful one.Fear on a globle level,is a maddening one. So sending Love is the most powerful responce I know.Thank you for sharing the courage to share Love !!!

Daily Stars with Shelley von Strunckel
www.shelleyvonstrunckel.comThere are several interpretations for the current alliance between Venus and Uranus in your sign, all of which involve surprises. While some might be welcome, others could seem worrying, at least at first. In every case they're worth exploring. The more you learn, the more the resulting developments will delight you. By Shelley von Strunckel
It was only a week ago that the planet of vision, Neptune, moved into its own sign, Pisces. This triggered a period of questioning about certain values and objectives you've regarded as unchanging. Once, perhaps, they were. But this is bringing changes in the world around you and, in some way, in everybody's life. By Shelley von Strunckel
While you'd admit to flaws in your character, stubbornness is not one of them. You are, however, urged to examine several situations in which you've simply refused to consider making changes, if not letting go of plans. True, you regard these as essential. Ask a few questions, and you'll discover they're not. By Shelley von Strunckel
Logic will get you a long way. It eliminates confusion and enables you to discuss plans with a clear mind. However, certain tricky individuals require a very different approach. Central to this lighter touch is humour. Once you're able to view the proceedings with humour, you'll realise you've had a very real breakthrough. By Shelley von Strunckel
You sometime stick with a plan or a passion more out of ego than because of logical reasons. Think of this now, before you become so involved in certain arrangements you'd have trouble disentangling yourself from them. Out of character as taking it slowly may be, it's your best option. By Shelley von Strunckel
Don't make the mistake of thinking that there's honour in fighting for certain arrangements that once meant a great deal to you. Not only would keeping these in place be a distraction, once you say farewell to them you'll be free to focus on far more promising, if unexpected, ideas or offers. By Shelley von Strunckel
It's time to acknowledge the only way you'll resolve one especially tricky matter is by standing up to somebody who's a bully. You've tried to satisfy this particular individual, but nothing's worked. That's because you still haven't acknowledged the only thing that has an effect is a simple, head on, confrontation. By Shelley von Strunckel
Only days ago you were battling against the idea of potential alterations in elements of your way or living or activities out in the world. However, you've finally recognised just how much these changes are needed, enough you're actually considering others. This is wise. There are many areas where similar changes would be timely. By Shelley von Strunckel
There's a difference between showing interest in new ideas, which you are, and actually committing to them. You know this but others don't. Bear this in mind, or certain individuals could easily mistake your rather enthusiastic response to these developments as a commitment, when you're doing no more than asking questions. By Shelley von Strunckel
To you, trust is fundamental to any close alliance, personal, professional or otherwise. So when you witness events that raise questions about that trust, you worry, if not become suspicious. While at other times that might be merited, the odds are good there's a rational explanation. You need only ask. By Shelley von Strunckel
Only a week ago, after over a decade there, Neptune departed your sign for good. While you may not be able to describe any discernable change, you'll begin to notice your thinking is clearer and your convictions stronger. Soon this will be joined by a return of feelings of confidence you thought gone forever. By Shelley von Strunckel
If you think an idea is good, that's enough. In the past you've allowed others' questions or even the opposition of certain individuals to keep you from pursuing something you regarded as worthwhile, and to your regret. Now that a similar situation has arisen, ignore others and do what you think is best. By Shelley von Strunckel
