The Trap of Time

 

The Trap of Time

                                                                            

Back when I was just a schoolboy, my 5th grade teacher Mrs. Sampson hung the classroom clock on the back wall, so as not to distract us from her lesson plan.  It didn't work, because every kid in that room had the swivel neck, looking over their shoulders to glance the time many times an hour.  Before long She added a hand made sign below the clock, in the shape of a bumper sticker.  It read: "Time will pass...will You?"  We did of course, and along with whatever we gleaned from the teachings; we also acquired a lifelong relationship with time, for better or worse.

For some of us, punctuality is the prime directive while for many it remains an elusive addition to our skill set.  For some of us time is a master, for others, a nagging mother-in-law; and some...well they never give time a second thought, they just don't have the time for it.  In 1971, Spiritualist teacher Ram Dass published his seminal work entitled "Be Here Now," which among many other things, extolled the virtue of living in the present moment.  In a very real sense, the present moment in time is all we ever really have.  While living in the past may seem attractive because the rent was so much lower back then, it is essentially a coping mechanism used by folks who just cannot handle the pace of modern day life.  Conversely, living in the future (daydreaming) may seem like a productive effort, but only the very talented manage to make a decent living at it - for all the rest it remains just another defense mechanism...the eternal hope that the future will be better despite reality showing no signs thereof.

"Time is an Illusion." ~ Albert Einstein

The reason so many guru's and spiritual teachers want us to focus upon, and live in, the present moment is because time is an illusion of our own creation, we made it up, just like we do with everything else.  Humans invented the concept of time primarily to facilitate being asleep within a consensus reality matrix.  Those awake within the dream we call life released the notion of time, knowing as they do that all there is, or ever was or will be...is the eternal Now.  The Point of Power is always in the present moment, never in the past, or future...and that is, the power of choice.    Time is spherical, not linear, and as such it connects every aspect of All That Is with every other aspect...not a single aspect excluded.  Put another way, everything that has ever happened or ever will happen is all happening right now in this eternal moment of Now.  Fortunately we have a built in mechanism which acts like a series of step-down transformers to prevent this fact from toasting our grey matter: it's called the 12 chakra system.

"The reason we have time is to keep everything from happening at once"

 ~Buckaroo Banzai, (Stolen from Einstein)~

We also use time as a convenient scapegoat when we really don't want to do something: "I just don't have the time."  Balderdash!  Each of us has the exact same amount of "time" with which to do things.  The same number of hours in a day that Bill Gates, and Stephen Hawking have, we also have; so we either  If we hadn't created time then perhaps we'd be less anxious to muck about making periodic changes in it to squeeze every last dollar from each day ~ Daylight savings time!  Twice a year the owners force us to gain or loose an hour every day to accommodate purely commercial enterprises, totally disregarding the sacred sleep cycle.  To make it even worse, the last daylight savings time shift happened to occur during the current period of mercury retrograde, in Scorpio!  Think of the hundreds of working folk who forgot to adjust their clocks, and as a result rush franticly to make up the lost time.  How many will cause or be included in a traffic accident because of time?  Speaking of working folk; just who is responsible for the 40 hour work week anyway?  What an archaic abuse of time.

make the time for something or not!

Does anybody keep those kind of statistics...about the cost in dollars & lives of this ridiculous mockery of time called daylight savings time?  What then of the additional confusion caused when some communities here and there refuse to acknowledge DST, and keep the same time year round?  Yes it can be chaotic, and often times funny depending upon one's perspective.  Consider the ancient Maya, who were indeed masters of time.  For more than 2000 years their civilization got along just fine with time.  They understood time perhaps better than anyone ever has, and they measured it in cycles and patterns, whether the cycle was Trecena-13 days, Veintena-20 days, Tzolkin-260 days: or the long count of 26 thousand years.  I think the Maya understood the timelessness of time, they understood it in Galactic terms, rather than planetary, I think they could see the eternal moment of time which surrounds, and eventually engulfs us all.

"Time is the fire in which we burn"

~Soran~ [Star Trek Generations]

Of course, mankind's tampering with time is as a drop of water in the ocean compared to what the universe routinely does with time.  Thanks to Albert Einstein we know that all things, including time, are relative.  We know, for instance that a space traveler who went to alpha centauri & back would return having hardly aged while everyone they ever knew had long since died.  We know that nothing, including light can escape from a black hole, so what about time...what becomes of it in such an environment?  Kinda gets us back to that eternal moment of Now.  Distances in the galaxy, and universe are so vast we must measure them in terms of time, how long it takes light to travel a year at 186,000 feet per second...or a light year.  for example, on this scale, the light from our sun takes eight minutes & 17 seconds to reach earth.

Because of relativity, time has shown us some marvelous things, for instance; if you set two identical clocks to the exact same time, then put one on a space ship traveling at light speed...you get what is termed spooky action at distance; in other words changes made to the earth bound clock would also appear on the clock aboard the space ship!  Weird enough for you??  Buckle up!!  Scientists are now discovering that even the speed of light may not be a universal constant, as Einstein thought.

Things get even stranger in regards to time when we look at the opposite end of the spectrum, where we find atoms, molecules and such.  Cutting edge advancements in our understanding of the quantum world of string theory show that the laws of physics as we know them work quite differently on the sub-atomic scale.  Electrons behave very strangely, as we can measure either it's position, or speed, but not both at once; the reason for this being partially due to the electron's ability to appear to be in two places at the same time!  Electrons can manifest either as a particle, or a wave...(but once again), not at the same moment.  And what about Tachyons, those theoretical particles which cannot mover slower than the speed of light??  Think of the astonishing potential harnessing tachyons would have.  It would enable and facilitate faster than light communication; such that exchanging messages with both the past and future would be feasible.  You would of course have to in some manner invoke or create a Lorentz Invariance to get around some undesirable side effects on the causality of things, but it could be done, given you could create or collect tachyons.

Don't get comfortable with time just yet because in less than a nanosecond we're going even smaller, and further down the wormhole.  What's smaller than a Nanosecond you may ask??  Have you heard of Planck Time?  Let me put it to you this way...  Planck time is the time required for light to travel (in a vacuum) a distance of one Planck Length:  How small is that???  If one atom was the size of the entire known universe, a Planck length would be the height of the average tree!  I mention this mostly to give some perspective to the discussion of time as we understand and live with it.  If we are ever to understand how we fit into the overall scheme of things, shouldn't we effort to discover how the overall structure of things functions?

So here we all are at the end of time (Mayan calendar) just as world shaking changes are taking place, (as predicted) and the resonance of 5D grows stronger with each soul arising from slumber.  You might expect that time itself would begin exhibiting previously unseen attributes, and you'd be right.  A great many people nowadays are having the experience of elastic time when some hours are much longer than others...and sometimes it seems that time itself freezes for brief periods, and even  Just more evidence of shifting realities and paradigms.  Many of us speak in terms of there currently being two earths, of incompatible resonance vibration...so imagine the surprise when I begin to see headlines about the earth splitting in two at the equator this week.

speeds up.

"Time and Tide wait for no man." ~ St. Marher, (1225)

Obviously, if we are indeed at the end of time then, by definition we are pioneers ~ being as we are 'where no one has gone before'... and cannot expect therefore to find such luxuries as map, compass or instructions.  We're here on our own kids, and that means it's time to put everything we've learned (spiritually) into play, "It's Showtime!" and the clock is ticking.

Like uncle Albert showed us, time is relative depending on whether you're using galactic measurements, or Planck lengths: whether you're talking about time on a geologic, prehistoric, or current day scale.  When we humans invent something as cool as time, we sure don't spare the detail...we go all in.  The Rolling Stones may have had time on their side, but then they weren't living in today's post-Fukushima reality where not only is time decidedly not on our side, (meaning us, the living), it isn't even our friend anymore.

There comes a time when no matter how frightening the horror is; you can no longer hide beneath the blanket, hoping the nightmare will get better or go away.  When even the strongest denial syndrome cracks from repeated blows of cognitive dissonance, you simply have to come out and face the monster, and then stare it down, because it ain't gonna get better and it's not going away.  Between the few reports of radiation related deaths escaping the Japanese barricade against truth, and the scores of sick, dying and mutated marine life washing up simply everywhere, the Fukushima cows are coming home to roost big time.  The genocide of the pacific ocean from Fukushima radiation is now so widespread that not even the most determined efforts can censor it.  The truth is out, and as usual...it's far worse than we have been told.

Just this week we have seen several experts and authorities openly admitting to the press that the overall situation is, in a word, Hopeless.  Like the super massive black hole at the center of our galaxy, the nuclear volcano Fukushima will just continue to eat away at every single lifeform on earth, until at last the only life remaining will be that which thrives on such extreme environments.  Cockroaches!

"I wish it need not have happened in my time." said Frodo

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times,

But that is not for them to decide.  All we have to decide

is what to do with the time given us."

                                                     J.R.R. Tolkien ~ The Fellowship of the Ring

The point here is simple and easy for anyone to see, and that is, that time is more precious to us now than it ever has been before in the history of our species.  Simple as that.  When it comes down to your final days of life, what memories will you cherish most?  Will you wish you had put in more overtime down at the office?  Or perhaps you'll wish you'd spent more time acknowledging, and being with those you care about the most.  Will you curse yourself for the time you wasted, or be at peace, knowing time spent knowing yourself is never wasted?  Even if every other major crisis on this planet was peacefully resolved with food and shelter enough for every single human, and the abolishment of war, slavery and GMO food-like-products was a fact of life....there still would be no fix for Fukushima, and it will just continue, long after the last human perishes from this place.

This then, is the trap of time.  What will we do with the remaining time given us?  Will all semblance of civilized society dissolve into the stuff of every apocalyptic movie ever made...or will we, as a species show a bit of class, a shard of dignity as we go down with Gaia; taking a deep breath and accepting our fate?  Yeah, I know you'd prefer not to think about such things...and that's a huge part of the problem here because it prevents you from finding that peace.  The peace to go out dancing every weekend and follow your favorite band on tour as though the world was just dandy and fixin to last a million more years.  The peace that leads to finding the truly precious things about life, before you must release it, once again, as you have so very many times before.

"How did it get so late so soon?" ~ Dr. Seuss

What shall we do?  I rather suppose that we should re-think our priorities in life just now, and take stock as they say.  Make a conscious effort to acknowledge, and respect all life...ALL life.  Maybe dial back the pretentiousness and aggression enough to see that we really are all one after all, and from that, take forgiveness & gratitude...and some humble pie.  There will of course be hoarding and elevated competition for dwindling resources, but I'm really hoping humanity can rise above those levels of barbarism since we are in the very midst of a spiritual evolution, and all.  Perhaps in the final analysis this is what it takes for us to finally begin to truly value one another.  Just as Hunab Ku, the black hole at the center of our galaxy; Time has us in it's grip, which doesn't seem so bad until the corporeal systems begin to fail.  And just like the black hole; Time will have it's way with us - in the fullness of time.

Galactic Alignment

Galactic Alignment 2012?

By Chris Bourne

So we’re rapidly approaching the much heralded and prophecised Galactic Alignment, where the earth aligns with the sun through the galactic equator and according to some interpretations of the Mayan’s “Popol Vu”, it will also coordinate with the completion of what’s known as the “Precession of the Equinoxes”, which is caused by the ‘wobble’ of the Earth’s polar axis subscribing a 26,000 year cycle through the 12 constellations of the Zodiac. As I understand it, the Mayans configured their “Long Count” calendar around the prediction to complete on 21st December 2012. Is this true and what might we expect to happen as a result?…
Xibalba be
I should quickly add, that many disagree with the timing of this event. Astronomers point to the calculations of Jean Meeus (Mathematical Astronomy Morsels, 1997) who concluded that it actually takes 36 years for the sun to pass through the alignment centred around 1998. By this calculation, there would be a window from 1980-2016 where alignment has already been happening every winter solstice. If he’s correct, and personally I feel a rightness with it, then we’re unlikely to witness anything extraordinary other than trends that have already been happening across the planet (which I’ll come onto in a moment).
Of course there’s quite a spiritual body invested in the Mayan predictions around 2012. To me, the exact timing matters not a jot, because lasting shifts of consciousness happen not according to some particular timing. That said, if we’re open to them, cosmic alignments like these, can temporarily at least uplift consciousness (which we must then integrate over time if they are to remain). And right now, like others, I do feel some pretty major cosmic shifts going on.

The Mayans accurately described a supermassive black hole at the centre of our Galaxy way before modern science discovered it. Passage along this ‘dark road’ or “Xibalba be” as the Mayans more romantically knew it, occurs with the retrograde movement of the Earths polar axis towards the ‘dark rift’ at the Galactic Centre. The Mayan culture apparently considered this as a journey into the underworld, a time of expanded consciousness. Certainly in my observations in facilitating evolving people, there definitely seems to be an acceleration into the darkened inner veils that limit – offering enormous opportunity for people to confront their fears and expand through them.At this current time, I especially feel the underlying movements of energy as heavy denseness on the global plane of the intellect. Although I don’t feel heavy in myself, I can feel a heaviness infusing my field, an increased density, but one does have to be expanded into multiple dimensions in order to feel it.
Great Opportunity
Many have said that such Galactic Alignment – coinciding with the Precession – has in the past tended to cause dramatic earth changes like pole shifts, solar storms, volcanic activity and even earth crust displacement. For me, I feel the transition is more protracted, aligned with the 36 year window. We are for example already witnessing a gradual pole shift, reduction of the earth’s magnetic field, increasing volcanic activity and earthquakes plus freak weather all at a time when solar storm activity is moving towards a zenith of its natural cycle. So there is definitely the increasing possibility of disruptive events on a global scale, although not necessarily centred around any key date. It is more that we’re traveling into an increasing period of uncertainty and therefore escalating probability of ‘turbulence’.
What we must also take into consideration, are how mass spiritual meditation and ceremony could affect life in various locations in a positive way. And on the other side of the coin, we’re already witnessing escalating popular unrest in hot spots around the world, probably due to the increased catalytic agitation of consciousness. To make matters even more challenging to predict, we cannot rule out ‘false-flag’ scares by the ‘powers-that-be’. These times are indeed a challenge – and therefore an opportunity – of increased personal awareness and responsibility. On the road to Xibalba, there will be many shadows and we must allow the direction of a loving heart to take precedence.

So this ongoing transition is without doubt a great opportunity. Even if the various alignments do not happen as and when predicted, it is clear to many that the Earth indeed is undergoing a major transition. The signs, synchronicities and feelings strongly suggest to me at least, that her centre of consciousness is centering in the Fifth Density. I strongly believe this in itself is the major shift causing the current accelerated awakenings, fragmenting of the old fear based consciousness and a reharmonisation of vibration. It certainly feels that way to me.
Free Will and Self Determination
As this planetary shift currently takes place, I feel the soul of Gaia beginning to squeeze through the plane of the intellect. In my knowing a grid of dense energy, has over the millennia, been established within the human mass psyche by a 4th Dimensional Opposing Consciousness. This “Matrix” is interwoven through the very fabric of society. I’ve frequently spoken of it being unwound and fragmented. To me, this feels like a crucial time in that unwinding. I sense Gaia – and a variety of cosmic energies – gathering at this crucial juncture to break apart various elements of this vibrational matrix, repatriating the Opposing Consciousness and liberating humanity on the mental plane. Wouldn’t it be wonderful were that to happen!
And what about predicted mass awakenings? Well certainly, if such events are marked by a concentration of human focus, if people are caused to look up from the pavement and through the neon lighted sidewalks to the starlit heavens above, that can only be a good thing. Humanity needs as many mirroring opportunities as possible these days. But let’s be clear, no matter what the shift of consciousness that takes place, we still have to process our own inner darkness and clear it in order for the expansion to integrate and remain a part of an expanded awareness.
No matter what goes on, we are blessed with free will. Our Ascension is a constant conscious choice, which although can be spiked during key events such as these, can only be fully integrated by walking the Spiritual Path. And that in itself happens not just on one key day. It takes time, persistence and great patience.

What the Mayans Left

Over 2,000 years ago the early Maya formulated a profound galactic cosmology. They saw that the sun, on the winter solstice, was slowly moving toward the heart of the galaxy.
