GALACTIC ALIGNMENT

It seems that we are on the very brink
of a 26'000-year-cycle shift.
Work by European master astronomer Jean Meuss and American shamanic-astrologer Daniel Giamario suggest that Earth is right at the end-beginning of this cycle, the time-marker being the solstice of 1998.
Our present solstice is not far off.

The following comes from Giamario's article in "The Mountain Astrologer" (Feb-Mar 98 issue), where he gives a complex yet clear and convincing discussion of this cycle:

"At the Winter solstices of 1997 and 1998, the Sun is at the intersection of the Ecliptic and the Galactic Equator, something that happens only once every 13'000 years. According to the calculations of astronomer Jean Meuss (famous for calculating stellar occultation), the winter solstice coordinate exactly reaches the intersection of the plane of the Milky Way with the zodiacal plane in May 1998.

This is the only time in the 26'000-year precessional cycle that the winter solstice is aligned with the Galactic Center."

Giamario goes on to explain why the Winter Solstice has high calendric priority as the time-marker for this momentous point in the cycle.
He mentions: "When sharing this material over the past ten years, I have found it has always been the native and traditional peoples of shamanic orientation who most easily resonate with this information. This is largely because they ceremonially "work" the cycles of the Earth and sky. They know what the winter solstice is. It is the time of the greatest density, the deepest descent of spirit into matter, the longest night, and then the return and rebirth of the Sun, and the turning of the year. The winter solstice, not coincidentally, has been chosen by the current world culture (through its secular calendar) to be the most important of the 4 calendar turning points, to mark the turning of a year."

He also speaks of monuments in South America and Scotland, which seem to have been built with this period of time in mind. For only now (along with the polar opposite 13'000-years-ago point) can the rising and setting Sun be experienced at the intersection of the solstice, Milky Way, and the ecliptic.
He ends by proposing that all those inclined should prepare for participating in conscious ceremony and festival to celebrate this end and beginning of the great Galactic Year.
"The rising Sun at winter solstice is a marvelous opportunity to receive a transmission of galactic intelligence directly from Galactic Center, for dreaming and co-creating the next great age."
