Abstract

d="aed1">“Human civilization goes through cycles of approximately 5,125 years. Right now we are smack dab in the middle of where one cycle ends and a new one begins. The new civilization coming about now will be based on very different thinking. For the new thinking to take hold the old thinking must be released. Humans don’t like to let go of old habitual ways of thinking. They are deeply ingrained so it takes major events to shake their thinking so that we can start embracing new and different thinking.”“And Ma Nature is only happy to help. No matter how much we deny it, humankind and nature are very intricately connected. We go through these cycles together. You know when the last great period of climate change was?”“No.”“It was around 5,125 years ago when the cycle that is now ending was just starting and the cycle before that was ending. It is during the in-between times between cycles when civilizations collapse and new ones emerge.”“Every cycle is dominated by certain energies. The cycle we’ve been in for the last 5,125 years has been a cycle of war, conflict, power, greed, competition, and MALE ENERGY. The new cycle will be very different. But it cannot come about until the old energies dissipate.”“So as we watch the news we see the world economy going to hell in a handbasket. We can panic or we can see that as a good thing. The economy is based on aggressive predatory competition. It’s a system where the top 1% is rewarded at the expense of everyone else. It’s an unsustainable system that not only is destroying the planet but creating massive suffering of humans everywhere. We are moving from a system of predatory competition to a system of cooperation, from a system of separation to a system of inclusive community, from constant war to peace, from male energy to female energy. And we can’t move to these new systems until we are set free from the stranglehold the old systems have on us. The old systems are dying and instead of panicking we should be putting all our focus and energy into the new ways of thinking.”“There is roughly a fifty-year period of transition between cycles. We’re in that period. It started in 1987 and ends in 2037. So we don’t have that far to go before…”“2037! I’ll be dead by then.”“Don’t say that! You’ll only be in your nineties.”“Oh.

Be glad you’re not a professional athlete or actor. There are millions of people who are about to be without a paycheck. And Spring is just around the corner and you can plant a garden on your land.

Got plenty of toilet paper?”I laughed, “Yeah, I stocked up on toilet paper before everyone else did. I like to think ahead. I’ve got enough to last me into May.

Talking Her Down Off the Ledge

The current importance of communication

Yesterday I got a phone call from a dear friend that I have known for close to thirty years. She has always been a very intelligent (and psychic) person who has spent many years helping and giving advice to others. Now suddenly she needed advice and someone to talk to. So she called me.

I guess everyone else was busy. Actually, most of her friends have died and I’m one of the few still alive that she can talk to about serious matters. She is in her late Seventies and lives alone way out in the country with her two kitty cats. Since her stroke she quit the internet and now her main access to the outside world is television.

“What the hell is going on?” she kept asking me. She was in full-blown panic mode. Her cable TV had been down all day.

“Is the world coming to an end? I’ve been watching the news every day — and all the talk shows. It’s like this Corona thing is bringing about the end of civilization. Everything has come to a screeching halt. People are dying and losing their jobs and the economy is crumbling. They say it’s putting us into another recession but it looks to me like we’re headed into another Great Depression. Things have been getting worse with each passing day and now the TV is down and I don’t even know what’s going on. I was going to go grocery shopping tomorrow — I always go on Tuesdays — but now I’m afraid to. And I only have three rolls of toilet paper left!”

“Listen. Take some deep breaths. Relax. The only thing you really have to fear is that when you get to the grocery store that there won’t be any toilet paper left. That’s not a life or death situation. Don’t give in to the panic. Let me tweak your perspective, okay?”

“But I’m also almost out of cat food and birdseed.” She has always been one to feed stray animals and birds and pets. Her grandkids call her, Kitty Grandma. She used to have seventeen cats but she has outlived all of them but two. One of her biggest fears is that if she dies she won’t be there to feed the animals.

“It’s very easy to panic right now and that is what most people are doing. But if you’re panicking then you’re not seeing the big picture.”

“What?”

“Human civilization goes through cycles of approximately 5,125 years. Right now we are smack dab in the middle of where one cycle ends and a new one begins. The new civilization coming about now will be based on very different thinking. For the new thinking to take hold the old thinking must be released. Humans don’t like to let go of old habitual ways of thinking. They are deeply ingrained so it takes major events to shake their thinking so that we can start embracing new and different thinking.”

“And Ma Nature is only happy to help. No matter how much we deny it, humankind and nature are very intricately connected. We go through these cycles together. You know when the last great period of climate change was?”

“No.”

“It was around 5,125 years ago when the cycle that is now ending was just starting and the cycle before that was ending. It is during the in-between times between cycles when civilizations collapse and new ones emerge.”

“Every cycle is dominated by certain energies. The cycle we’ve been in for the last 5,125 years has been a cycle of war, conflict, power, greed, competition, and MALE ENERGY. The new cycle will be very different. But it cannot come about until the old energies dissipate.”

“So as we watch the news we see the world economy going to hell in a handbasket. We can panic or we can see that as a good thing. The economy is based on aggressive predatory competition.
