Yesterday I felt happy to receive an encouraging email from a woman who wrote to tell me how much she liked the Edgar Cayce wall calendar I designed. It’s called, Divine in Nature: With Quotes from Edgar Cayce 2008 Calendar. She wrote:
“I’ve been meaning to write to you to tell you how much we’re enjoying your photos. They are luminous and uplifting pictures. Thanks for your work!” – Kathie, Bradford, Ontario, Canada
If you’d like to see the photographs, they are also available as free downloads that can be used as computer wallpaper. They have the uplifting quotes from Edgar Cayce’s psychic readings embedded in the pictures.

I am fascinated by this “2012: The Galactic Alignment, and the Great Goddess” article by Sharron Rose in The Mystery of 2012. She is using ancient Egyptian mysticism and especially the Isis/Osirus/Horus myth to show the importance of 2012.
In one part of the article, Rose says that Isis and the Virgin Mary are associated with the moon. She goes on to talk about the 13-month-per-year lunar calendar used by many European alchemical traditions.
The 13th month is ruled by Ophiuchus, a constellation situated between Scorpio and Sagittarius. She says that Ophiuchus is right at the galactic center. But it isn’t since the galactic center is presently at the end, not the beginning, of Sagittarius and is therefore closer to Capricorn than Scorpio.
Nonetheless, I feel happy to learn that Ophiuchus is important in some ancient traditions since I was fascinated with the constellation while studying astronomy in college. Sagittarius looks like a teapot. Ophiuchus looks like smoke rising out of the spout of the teapot. Ophiuchus also looks like an undulating serpent.
Interestingly, Ophiuchus is called the “Serpent Holder.” The whole constellation is supposed to be a man holding a serpent. According to the online encyclopedia Wikipedia, the sun is in Ophiuchus from November 30 to December 17. That’s most of Sagittarius.

Today, in my Edgar Cayce Search for God Study Group meeting, we discussed a passage that comes from the New Testament in which we are told that is it our job to sow the seeds knowing that some will fall on poor soil and will not thrive, some will fall among brambles and get choked out, and some will fall by the wayside and will not germinate. However, we are assured that some will fall on fertile soil and produce fantastic results. We are reminded that God gives the increase, not us.
I find this very helpful when I need to undertake new projects and when I meet with new groups. I wonder, will my ideas be helpful and appreciated? Will my ideas be welcomed? Will people accept me? Will my suggestions be of benefit to others? Well, the above passsage tells me not to concern myself with the outcome. The results are with Creative Forces. Just do it!

There are some who see 2012 as a benchmark for our inevitable demise unless we totally transform. Daniel Pinchbeck is one of them. Fortunately, in his book, 2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl, he says that we are presently in the throes of a transformation in which we are uniting the heavenly attributes of intuition and spirit with the earthly qualities of rational and scientific thought. He believes that transformation can occur quickly so that we will thrive instead of come to our demise on earth.

Today, I got a look at the new 2009 Edgar Cayce Calendar, “Divine in Nature” with Inspirational Quotes by the “Sleeping Prophet.”
They are gorgeous!
This year, they’re also better with 125 percent more quotes–two per month, sometimes three–and larger date spaces so there’s more room for writing memos.
The photos are even more outstanding than last year’s!

The ancient Maya call the dark gap in the middle of the bulging glowing center of our Milky Way galaxy “Xibalba be” according to John Major Jenkins in his The Mystery of 2012 article, “The Origins of the 2012 Revelation.”
“Xibalba be” means “the road to the other world.”

The ancient Maya immortalized the ruler of the previous world in Seven Macaw, the Big Dipper and its seven stars. Seven Macaw fell because of arrogance and conceit. John Major Jenkins writes about Seven Macaw in his article in The Mystery of 2012.
I wonder if Seven Macaw refers to Atlantis? According to Edgar Cayce, the ancient Maya originally came from Atlantis. Cayce’s trance source says that the Atlanteans were a different race than the human race. Their civilization fell because of arrogance and conceit. Atlantis went down into the Atlantic Ocean during what Cayce says was a shift in the earth’s axis.
Therefore, I wonder: Did the seven stars of the Big Dipper actually fall or tilt in a different direction in the sky after the earth’s axis shifted? What do you think?
