Remember Aughra?

She was the cheeky hermit in The Dark Crystal.  She has these intelligent vines guarding her house, and they end up capturing Jen, the gelfling hero of the movie.  She inspects him from a distance, holding her eye up to see him better.  LOL  I love that!

In her ancient home, there are so many cool things.  The place is crammed with nifties.  In the middle of it all there is a giant orrery.  I love that part too!  And in their conversation, the idea of the Great Conjunction comes up.

She says, in her eccentric way.  "Now, ask what the Great Conjunction is- What's the Great Conjunction?"  And Jen dutifully replies, "What's the Great Conjunction?  You tell me."

And she says, peering through a brass model of the three suns coming together, "The Great Conjunction is THE END OF THE WORLD!  Or the beginning...  Hmph!"

(And I was reminded recently that the Hmph! is very important...)

It's no different living in 2012.  Things are lining up.

Is it the end of the world as we know it?  Of course.  Every day is the end of what was, the beginning of what will be next.  We are all changing and growing.

And more, so much more this year, as wave after wave of cosmic energies wash across the planet.  Hold on, let go, imagine, envision, forgive and love and accept, especially yourself.  We're becoming whatever we choose to become.  We've really been doing that all along.

And this year, Miracles are more possible than they have been.  The Light is increasing.  So take your Third Eye out and investigate from a distance.  See what impossible things your vines have caught.  Go see the orrery, shake out that collection of shards, and do what you're called to do.

The Crystal is waiting for us to return to Wholeness.
