Question:
I was wondering if there was any relationship between the astronomical alignment due to happen during the winter solstice of 2012 (Sun, Galactic Equator, Earth) and perhaps a polar shift. Do any of these have anything to do with the change in the North Star and/or the processional equinox from Pisces to Aquarius? Do one or any of these happen to effect the other?

Is there any special alignment on 2012?

Question:
I’ve seen both sides say different.
One side say’s it happens frequently while the other side says that it every 26000 years or something like that.

like what things are aligned? so far I see that one side says that the earth is eclipsed by the sun from the galactic center while at the same time crossing the galactic plain.
or “plane”

what would be the effect of a galactic planetary alignment ie… the 2012 alignment?

Question:
The mayan calendar is projecting this alignment to occur in the year 2012.

what is the History channel talking about? Galactic Alignment?

Question:
What is this all about? The history channel keeps having these shows on and they keep talking about some kind of Galactic alignment in 2012 I guess, I have seen them talking about this on a bunch of shows and all or most of them are about some 2012 theory, like earlier it had something to do with Nastrodamus in 2012, but is there going to be one or is this just some bogus crap they are trying to get us to believe in, if so what would it mean for us?
I don’t believe it. I just wanted to know what Galactic ALignment they are talkin about. All this other shit I think is nonsence. I would believe that the Galactic Alignment they are talking about may be something they made up, but I am checking to see if anybody here knows if there really is a galactic alignment.
ok Cameron, I don’t believe we will have to worry about that for a long time, especially since you would be able to see Andromeda if this was going to occur in our life time, besides that If the 2 galaxy ever do collide they will just splice together and form one big galaxy, but things will be out of wack for a while. Andromeda has already collided with a galaxy in the past and they just combined to become a bigger galaxy.
Wow, I don’t remember asking about a mayan calander. that wasn’t my question. I asked about a Galactic Alignment. Maybe read the question. I know all about that Calander and it doesn’t mean nothin to me, unless they had scientific proof. The way I see it, it just ends on that day because they had no use to go any further and the calender couldn’t go on forever.

Galactic Alignment and the year 2012?

The following is a question being asked on Yahoo Answers. Both the questions and answers given do not reflect the view of our website.
Question:
Well, the history channel is currently running their program on Nostradamus’s Quatrains, the mayan calender ending on 2012, the egyptians etc etc.

Ok, so the galactic alignment occurs once every 25,000 years. Some how the Mayans ended their calender on this date. Now I understand after watching the stars for hundreds of years, by slight chance this is possible but the egyptians had knowledge of the stars etc.

Do you think there is any relevance between the galactic alignment,the cross of Hendaye, the words INRI’s Hebrew meaning, and what I am thinking is possibly the free masons. THE NEW WORLD ORDER!, do you think that there might be a connection between the NWO with the world “ending” in 2012.

Personally, I do not believe that our earth will end in 2012, but it will be life changing. The masons believe that the new world order will lead not a nation or country but the world to unify as one…EARTH.

There are all these problems all a sudden occurring, Katrina, tsunami, the San Andrea’s fault being 300 inches from where it should be posing imanent disaster unto California, The volcano at yellowstone possibly ready to blow, the finincial crisis, Iran now having technologies most of us would not like them to, and every other problem that we had/are having/ or possibly could happen.

The skeptics on here will say all of that is a coincidence but what if it is something more, a mere prelude to what awaits? Our world is slowly falling apart.
