2012 again

In thinking about this from astro perspective it seems to me:
Of course the tropical zodiac wheel is our seasons – it can be regarded as a more or less fixed set of coordiates. Then precession measures movement of a point on wheel (equinox) against backdrop of the stars. So the (N Hemi – whole earth view) winter solstice is coming into alignment slowly with galactic centre (direction). In astro ephemeris winter solstice is 0 Capricorn (by definition, always) and currently GC is almost 27 Sagittarius – 3 degrees off. At end 2012 GC is still 27 Sag. So there is no big alignment of solstice point (0 Cap) with GC coming up soon – a century from now GC will be 28 Sag – a little closer. Still, I suppose its in ballpark – our (N Hemi/whole earth) winter aligned with GC. One interpretation of GC is it accentuates, empowers through resonance with bigger ‘engine’ of galaxy. So, alignment could accentuate the deep yin of winter – the flip side of global warming, and probably just extremes hot/cold. (As I see it the sun/moon/earth aligments close to lunar nodes are more telling in short term – and I think especially lunar nodes 18 year cycle coming to 0 Cap winter solistice point in Feb 2011). When I see the sketchy details of Mayan drawings of end calendar it looks to me like they highlight water/winter symbolism – strong yin. The good bit is we get to resonate with bigger engine but need balance otherwise extremes get magnified. Prof Flywheel says: careful of speed wobbles as you step on the gas, dude. The lunar nodes symbolism (Sun/Moon alchemy) are more relevant to our conditions. Get harmony here – more voltage then ok. If not, then not. Next lunar eclipse end Dec and Solar eclipse mid Jan.
