THE ASTROLOGY OF DECEMBER 2012: DISASTER, ASCENSION OR BOTH?
by Roeland de Looff © roeland@dirah.org
MilkyWay.jpg (27000 bytes)According to many prophecies
something important is about to happen in 2012.
In 2012 the galactic
equator cuts the ecliptic at 0 degree of the Western zodiacal sign Capricorn. 0
degree Capricorn is the point of the zodiac where the Sun is during the December
solstice.
At December 21, 11.12 GMT during the December solstice the Sun
touches the Dark Rift, which is located near the Galactic Center. According to
the Mayas the Dark Rift is the cosmic womb: the place of dead, transformation,
regeneration and rebirth. This moment shows the end of their calendar.
To
the left you see a picture on how the Milky Way appears in a part of the world
that has no problems with light pollution.
Below you see a picture of the
center of the Galaxy. The picture shows a light cluster of stars. Underneath
these light stars (a bit to the right) you see a circle of stars that surrounds
a dark part of the sky. This dark part is a gigantic black hole which is the
center of the Galaxy. This dark hole is a region of immense spiritual
power.

To
know more about what this means it is interesting to make an astrological chart
of the December solstice of 2012.
Below you see a chart for 21 December
12.12 Middle European Time (11.12 GMT), Amsterdam, Netherlands. The planetary
pattern will be the same for all locations only the ascendant and house division
will be different.
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE ASTROLOGICAL CHART
The Sun is
at 0 degrees Capricorn, the point of the December solstice. It makes a sextile
to Neptune, right at the beginning of Pisces. This is an almost exact sextile.
The orb is less then half a degree. This aspect can point towards a spiritual
experience, a loss or both.
The most important configuration is a yod
which we find in the chart. This is also called the Finger of God. It looks like
an arrow in the chart and it indicates change and transformations. .
The
yod consists of:
1. A quincunx (150 degree aspect) between Jupiter and
Pluto.
2. A quincunx between Jupiter and Saturn.
3. A central
opposition (180 degree aspect) made between Jupiter and the Mercury/Venus
conjunction.
The two quincunxes are almost exact, they have an orb of
less then half a degree. In fact the quincunx between Jupiter and Pluto is exact
at December 21 2012.
THE MEANING OF THE ASTROLOGICAL CHART
Pluto
is the planet of radical transformation, death and rebirth.
Saturn is the
planet of the earthly realm and of learning experiences, especially those of a
more painful nature.
Jupiter is the planet of expansion. It is the focus
of the yod, the planet which receives the strong energy of the other planets
involved. It also expands the energy of the other planets involved (especially
Saturn and Pluto).
This yod indicates transformational processes which
can be painful for many.
Jupiter has a central place in this because it
is the focal point of the energy. This indicates changes in our religious
systems, beliefs, philosophical systems. These fall under Jupiter.

Another notable
configuration is the T-square with Neptune as focal point:
* Jupiter makes
a square (90 degree aspect) to Neptune.
* Neptune makes a square to Venus.
* Venus opposes Jupiter, this is the central opposition that activates the yod.
Therefore Neptune, the planet of spirituality, ascension, confusion and floods
is a crucial planet in this chart.
Is it possible to find out more details about the picture given
above? Maybe we can use another astrological method to find out more about what
the above chart indicates?
Astrocartography, interpreting a chart and
recognizing patterns in a chart, like identifying yods and T-squares are just a
few of the techniques you will learn during the Courses Astrology and Self
Development I and II.

THE CHINESE FOUR PILLAR CHART
OR THE STORY OF THE TWO DRAGONS
ouroboros.gif (10181 bytes)I have made a
Chinese Four Pillar Chart. This type of chart contains of four pillars that are
dependend upon the hour, day, month and year. Because the hourly pillar depends
upon the location I have confined myself to the pillars of the day, month and
year. These are the same for the entire world.
In the roots of the chart
(the lower part of the pillars) we find a rat that is surrounded by two dragons.
The dragons almost seems to be making plans to eat the rat.
The dragon
represents the Ourobouros, the mythological dragon or snake that bites its own
tail. According to Mayan cosmology this Ourobouros symbolizes the Milky
Way.
The dragon is an earthly sign, the rat is a water sign. Therefore
this chart contains water and earth.
In the stems (the top of the chart)
we find yang fire. This is the strong fire of the Sun or a natural
fire.
In this chart water is the strongest element. It can be found in
the rat and in the two Yang Waters.
A meteorite falling in the ocean
would be one expression of this chart. Or a vulcan (fire and earth) exploding
and causing a tsunami (water). It could also indicate floods. Water and Earth
the strongest elements of this charts are enemies to one another. Since Water is
more powerful in the chart, this may indicate large-scale floods. Therefore of
all the events possible large-scale floods are the most likely.
This is
confirmed by the Western chart in which Neptune plays a crucial role.
In
my opinion what this chart indicates is that the polluted energy of the
collective unconsciousness will turn against humanity. Whatever happens, it will
be an expression of the energy that is radiated by a humanity that is unable to
live in peace and to make the right choices (for peace, welfare, health and
inner spirituality).
CHINESE FOUR PILLAR CHART DECEMBER 21 2012
ONLY
DAY PILLAR, MONTH PILLAR AND YEAR PILLAR ARE SHOWN WHICH ARE NOT DEPENDENT UPON
THE LOCATION, THE HOUR PILLAR IS DIFFERENT FOR EACH LOCATION
PILLAR OF THE
DAY PILLAR OF THE MONTH PILLAR OF THE YEAR
YANG FIRE YANG WATER YANG
WATER
DRAGON RAT DRAGON
It is interesting that in the Maya Dresden
Codex, one of the few remaining Mayan texts, the end an era is symbolized as a
dragon that pours water on a dark figure. Here we see the two themes of dragon
and water which are prominent in the Chinese
chart.
CONCLUSION
Despite the prophecies of the Mayas, Hopis, many
other cultures and the charts above I am not convinced that something will
happen.
There are many examples of powerful astrological moments that had
a subtle effect only. I am reminded for example on the Nostradamus eclipse of
1999. In the years before that eclipse the eclipse was hyped. However, no event
that had a shocking nature worldwide happened after it.

All
things considered I see three possible scenarios:
1. An important and
shocking event happens which will be the cause that many people will be forced
to leave their physical bodies. This event will most likely have to do with
water. For people who are in touch with themselves and are evolved spiritually
this can mean that they enter into a heavenly realm. That can be called
ascension. I feel the likelihood for such an event is 25%. if you like to see in
which areas such an event is the most likely to happen you can click

According to many there was a big flood around 13.000 years ago, which
may have destroyed several civilizations. This coincided with the conjunction of
the Summer solstice (seen from the point of view of the Northern Hemisphere) to
the Dark Rift near the Galactic Center. Now we have a conjunction of the Winter
solstice to the Dark Rift near to the Galactic Center.
2. The pressure of
Saturn and Pluto will change the belief system of the world in a way that people
finally realize that we have been on the wrong track for the last thousands of
years. People and especially governments will finally realize that bringing
peace and welfare to the world is a better thing to do then fighting wars,
polluting the environment and creating misery. The likelihood of this to happen
is I believe 10%. Looking at the current situation of the world makes is
impossible for me to come up with a higher percentage.
3. Therefore there
is a chance of 65% that nothing shocking will happen and that humankind will
simply muddle through.
The question is how to prepare for the first
scenario?

What
we should not do is building shelters and moving to so called safe areas. It
something happens it will probably affect all people everywhere. It makes no
difference where you are and hiding for it is simply not possible.
The
only method to prepare for this is to focus on our spiritual development so that
if we are forced to leave our bodies we are well prepared.
And even if
nothing happens focusing on your spiritual development is always a good
idea.
The only thing that stays with us forever is not our money,
material wealth and material insurance's, but our inner wealth.
The
charts of December 2012 are another incentive for not wasting our energy on
pursuing material wealth but for enriching ourselves by finding inner peace.
Whatever may or may not happen on December 2012 finding inner peace, happiness
and evolving in a spiritual sense is certainly the best and the only way to
protect ourselves.
Luckily there are more tools available today for this
then in any other recorded time in history.
