Mystical Mexico

The mystical sites in Mexico just may be its saving grace. Amidst the white noise in the news it is difficult to discern the story of a magical transformation seeded within the borders of our neighboring country. Yet the transformation I speak of will profoundly effect all of us the world over.

There has been much written about the 2012 phenomenon. This is evidenced by the surge in spiritual seekers drawn to the sacred lands of the Maya. Many are in search of a new understanding of these ancients who left behind amazing works of astronomy and astrology. The civilization that left a mark on planet earth also left a message. This message can be read in the carvings along the walls of Mexico’s hidden caves and atop the stone monuments spotted across the Mesoamerican Mountains.

Of particular interest, is the discovery of the Mayan Long Count Calendar. Upon first impression, one is struck by the realization that the ending the Maya foresaw millennia ago could portend the extinction of mankind. Yet a more profound theory has emerged pointing our hearts to the evolution of mankind as an alternative. The spiritual power within individuals must unite in partnership to usher in the shift. In light of this revelation, many are drawing an analogous picture to the fall of the Berlin wall following the Harmonic Convergence.

In 1987, I considered myself a neophyte in these matters. Yet I was drawn to or rather “called” to be a part of the process. I cancelled my work commitments and met with a small group of like minded individuals in a friend’s living room. We spent that auspicious day in August practicing quiet meditation, hours at a time, praying. Later we learned how many hands were held world wide during those moments. The connection between this focus on peaceful freedom followed by the subsequent fall of an icon of bondage in 1989 was notably speculated.

One of the ways those called to the upcoming task are participating in the next universal transformation is by connecting directly with the forces at play on sacred lands. The Shamanic elders of the modern day Mayans are being guided to join with those individuals who feel the stirrings within. Excursions have begun to the lands of the early ones throughout the Mexico Guatemala region to reignite the celebratory fires.

One mission of these groups is to unravel the mystery. Another is the preservation of the tombs of antiquity that house Mayan cultural wisdom. Recent restoration projects have been underway at many formerly isolated locations. Some of the lesser known sites have open access to the archeology unearthed. This allows the opportunity for a first hand experience with the energy of the Maya. Those of us who tread these lands carry a great reverence and responsibility. When the tipping point is reached, evolution has begun.
