About 15 or 20 years ago, geologist and author Gregg Braden brought us information about the magnetic poles of the earth shifting. Though he was a geologist, he began to put the idea of a pole shift in a spiritual context. Radical at the time, it is now, apparently, scientifically agreed that we are, in fact, in the midst of a magnetic pole shift. The magnetic field around the earth is weakening and has the potential to flip so that north will become south and south north. It's uncertain how long such a shift such as this can take or what the ramifications may be to the planet and those who inhabit it. Is it possible there is a connection between this pole shift and the shift in consciousness that's been prophesied and anticipated for these times? The Mayan calendar describes 2012 as the end of a great age, and even the bible talks about a time of Armageddon. Let me be perfectly clear: I don't see this as a doomsday, but rather a powerful time of transition, not to be feared, but to be experienced to the fullest.
You can go to Braden's website for details about the shift. Here, I would like to muse a bit about what such a shift might mean.
The magnetic field protects the earth's atmosphere. Should the field drop during this brief time, there could well be an influx of energy from the sun which has sometimes been spoken of as a spiritual focus.
During the shift, it's thought that some might feel the urge to sleep or zone out because the atmosphere will be so different. I remember going to hear Krishnamurti speak in Ojai, California in my early days of studying spirituality. I listened to the first few minutes and soon fell fast asleep. The frequency or vibratory rate at which his words were coming through were more than I could take in consciously. I remember hearing the words but as if through a fog. Is it possible that the magnetic field being down could produce a similar effect?
Those who can stay awake during this shift may experience ecstasy. I remember living at Glen Ivy Retreat Center when the power would go out. There was an amazing sense of peace when everything electrical stopped running. Another time, I spent a week in a very remote part of the Rocky Mountains and it was touched so deeply it was life changing. What might it be like if the electromagnetic field around the earth dropped? Different? How?
On the other hand, being in the mountains might be hell for some people. Too quiet, nothing to distract from what's going on within. Could this also be what it's like during a pole shift?
It's prophesied that after the wars and chaos will come 1000 years of peace. Could the shift initiate that cycle? A new age?
