Geomagnetic reversal? Apocalypse? Spiritual Awakening? Galactic alignment? Aliens returning to earth? Nibiru collision? Solar Flares? Nothing?

D. All of the above.

Yes, them all, but the slowish build-up is well underway and the 2012 date is a simplistic soundbite / not the whole story.

As I understand it, the more active geophycial events really start to become manifest later this month and continue 'on and off' for a few years.

The Mayan Calendar ends in October this year - not in 2012.

Changes to humankind are also underway, and it seems that some kind of awakening will happen in early 2013. This may come as a NDE which everyone experiences.

After the next sunspot maxima we have a quiet period (the sun has a rest LOL) and there will be an ice age - hopefully nothing more than a 'mini' ice age as in the middle ages, not a full blown one.

Where did you get that from?

This is one of those back and forth arguments between the people in the field ... and one HAS TO disagree, and so the discussions rage.

Calleman had also said: I simply assumed that the significant Mayan pyramids had been built in nine steps because they were symbolic of nine levels of creation ...

Well, if one can "assume" something in this subject, I can too. I say the 9-steps represent the time of the goddess arrival, and if Bolon Yokte is "arriving" ... then he / they are coming on the end of the calendar date. This is the same picture TPTB are fooling with (for them the great year).

Nothing and the end of the world at the same time? I wanna see that happen!!

Overload of technology. To the point that others are not accepting it. It's happening already with the news that the rule for mandatory back-up cameras delayed because of a lot of people wishing it to be voluntary instead.

You do realize that even if this stuff is right, it makes no difference ... you are still looking at the wrong picture.

Let me explain this with the newest piece of information I have. "Experiencers" are all labeled some version of crazy. I have had my experiences ongoing from 1955 to 2010 when it seems it was over. One of the things I could never do was get a psychological evaluation to see just how nutz I really was, if indeed I was nutz. I found out recently that someone I know on the net is a psychotherapist, and I asked him if he wanted to do and evaluation of me with regard to everything I have been through. He said yes, we did it, guess what - not nutz. I have sufficient data to back up everything, and not one piece of this came up as even remotely connected to fantasy. Hard data kicks ass - I rest my case.

You do realize that if this IS a superwave, the EMP alone will affect us like it never has before. If global electric shuts down, every nuclear power plant on the planet will shut down - and backup systems will either immediately fail, or eventually fail, depending on how much they depend on computers, how "shielded" they were, and how long the fuel lasts. Global melt downs (with no way to deal with them) are inevitable. There will be no food deliveries, no water, no medical help, no nothing; everything depends on electric and fuel. And then, the gravity wave will set off every volcano and earthquake that was about ready to go, adding to the picture. The only "humanity" that will survive will be those in the underground bunker cities that have allegedly been being built since when? The 50s? Who knows ...if this is a MAJOR event, they are going to be down there forever ... how long do you think the surface radiation alone is going to last?

All I know is, the picture I have called this event - the end of the road - and the projected picture of cause and effect possibilities would seem to agree. It was also very specific about the fact that we don't think correctly, we follow "dead end roads" of illogic - and - we don't even see THAT much. After looking at that picture for a few years, yeah, I can see why. In these forums, they are protected by a "group think" mentality, and when there is no protection from thoughts they don't want to see (like this group) - THEY LEAVE - they are off to find a mentally comfy place where they can live their delusions and be free of fear. Oh well, not my problem.
