Traditional Maya DressThe Spiritual Tzolkin Calendar of the Maya

As I write this piece I find myself say in a house out in the middle of a forest on top of a hill overlooking the Cotswolds. The house has history, it was once used as a treatment centre for those suffering Consumption. It was during that period that a man named Eric Blair was in residence for treatment. Whilst being here he was also just publishing a now infamous book named '1984', under his pseudo-name 'George Orwell. As a conspiracy theorist writer, as well as a spiritual writer, I can't fail to appreciate how incredible it is that I find myself in this place at this time.It is the culminating moment in a very harsh process over the last months.

George Orwell's book warned of a bleak future in which the world found itself locked in a senseless eternal war based on lies and manipulations of a new world order government system. The populace found itself ruined economically by the governments mechanisms, and additionally found itself wholly monitored by government technologies. A grim scenario indeed.

There is little doubt that 2011 has been a year for much grim news and bitter deeds. The awful Fukushima nuclear event, triggered by an enormous earthquake, stands out as one major happening. We have seen countries slide into near bankruptcy, pushing gold through record barriers as investors flee markets in search of safety. Yet another illegal war has been started, this time in Africa with the invasion of Libya, as well as there being a number of CIA orchestrated and guided revolutions in the Middle East which pushed the region into wider unrest and instability favouring an oncoming invasion of the region. Drought, famine, disease, climatic shifts, natural disasters, war and rumours of war.

This 4-Ahau closes the third to last 260 day Tzolkin prior to 21-12-2012. To me this is intuitively an important point. I would not be surprised to see a noticeable shift in the way events are going forwards. That is not to say they will be more disastrous, but rather there will be more clear evidence that the darker elements of the change process, forces that seek evil ends, will start to become more visible to the general populace. Even as I write here the news rages about Murdoch and how the mass media is in bed with corrupt police and self promoting members of parliament. The distasteful face of corporate media is being better observed, eroding the trust so many have for what is obviously a very bias and controlled 'free' press.

The world is passing through a period in which it, all of us, must face the shadow self. This is the time of the great revealing. All that is hidden shall be revealed and made clear. All of our darkest secrets, most shameful actions, lowest intentions, will be show to everyone. The more we fight the process, the more we protect the the selfish and fear-filled aspects of the ego, the far more stormy the process will become. This is becoming recognisable both in the macrocosm of the global civilisation and also in the microcosm of our individuals lives.

I tend not to talk too much about my personal life or that of those around me. That said it is sometime important to use real world examples. With that in mind I will confide in my readers that my last 260 days have been generally agonising. My life has been stripped bear, its bones picked clean, the fires of change have toasted me slowly on a spit. I have been grabbed and held fast to face my shadow in the mirror of events. It is difficult to think of more than a handful of days in the last six months where I did not spend the entire day in a state of some form of distress and worry. Crumbling relationships in business and in family life, money issues from both within and outside the family, loss of home, loss of income, stressful undertakings for loved ones, angst from stupid mistakes, guilt, regret, worry, depression, anxiety and even intense anger and rage. 'Flame grilled' sums me up right now.

So here I now sit in this interesting place, essentially homeless and income-less, separated from family and my comfortable routines. If I was not aware of the need for all this to happen as part of the cosmic process swirling around us I would doubtless be very bitter rather than calm and accepting (which took a lot of internal work to achieve). It would be easy to shout about how unfair it has all been, but that would ignore the fact I must of brought the severity of the process onto myself by means of my own past actions or past states of mind. The chaos in my own life is the product of the shadow self, that bad wolf inside me that I foolishly chose to feed in past times.

Looking around me it is clear that 2011 has been rather like this for a great many of those folks I personally know. It is as though the wheat and chaff in our own lives is being carefully winnowed by some might force of consciousness. It is hard to meet many folks that have gone through the last 260 days mostly unaffected, and if so then either it is because they totally refused to face themselves (and thus have this all to come) or they really did not require such a violent shaking by the hand of fate so to be ready for the vibrations coming in at this time. I salute anyone that has so purified themselves in the fire of truth and honesty, wisdom and merit, so that they require little or no purification as the spiral of change tightens in towards 21-12-2012 and beyond.

This is the first time in six months that I have had the peace of mind enough to sit and write anything. From here on though I will be dedicating myself to a path of renewed commitment to greater self development as well as assisting other people with this spiritual growth process as much as I can. My intention is also to carry out deeper work with the symbols of the Tzolkin during the final two 260 day cycles starting on 21-07-2011 (5-Imix).

I do not doubt for a moment that there is more tough stuff to come but I feel that now there is a real chance that we can turn the tide of negativity prior to the gateway points of 21-12-2012 and 31-03-2013. There is a real chance of birthing a new golden age.

“Every person who has walked through the darkest point of the night, has made it to see the light of the dawn.”

I am hoping that some of you will join me in the exciting plans I have for the next Tzolkin cycle. I have now joined efforts with the members of the Pro-ject Love team and will be getting involved with their incredible efforts to birth a new more conscious society, as well as agreed to co-host a radio show on freethinkradio for another group of friends. Then there is my travel plans which include a return to Mexico, a spiritual retreat in Southern Spain and the intention to be at the Great Pyramid of Egypt for 11-11-11. Alongside this I will be offering up as much time as I can to speak about the supernatural and spiritual considerations to the 2012 subject at events and conferences whom feel I might add something. A special thanks to Truthjuice for getting me started with this challenging aspect to my spiritual journey.

May the next 260 days be interesting, exciting, and greatly beneficial.


With love to all beings
