So, let's begin by setting up a nice little domain wherein there really is something to the whole 2012 deal. And end point of something, a start point of something else - and quite possibly one that bleeds backwards through time to where we're standing now. Certainly it feels like that from where I'm standing now, but I won't say for certain that we're not looking at another Y2K floptasm.
Regardless, let's take the Mayan Apocalypse as a given, and play.
I'm most interested in what people can derive using various systems (magical, mystical, mundane, mixed, whatever) about the times leading up to and where we are today by doing a bit of a reverse count from 2012 to now. Then seing where we get on that basis, if you get my drift.
For an example.
Tarot - if we place the final trump (the World) at 2012 that places us in the year of Temperance right now, with last year being the year of Death. That feels about right, all things considered. We can also look at the 0 point being 2012 and count back from the Fool in reverse order - which would make last year the year of Strengh and this one the year of the Chariot. Which instinctively doesn't jive as well with me, but I quite like it as a counterpoint to the forward counting.
In fact, I very much like looking at both the forward and the backward happening at the same time. Meaning we're headed out of the year of Death and Strength, and into the year of Temperance and the Chariot. Control and integration of opposites. To be followed by 2006, the year of the Devilish Love.
So, that's one way of looking at things. We can do the same with the TOL - place Kether at 2012 and watch as it's energies pour backwards to the now - making this year the year of Hod, after last years Yesodic cycle.
This doesn't feel as tight to me, personally. Last year was actually pretty Yesodic for me, but I don't see the big picture having many of those elements. I'm happy for people to disagree though.
Anyone got anything to add? I Ching? Runes? Ogham? 2c? |
