I've found it remarkable that a few different ancient civilizations had a time wheel of great Ages that all coincide. Each happens to last 25,920 years. This is the exact time it takes for our Milky Way galaxy to make a complete revolution. Each civilization depicted this time span, this complete revolution, as sort of a "season" of growth or evolution for mankind.
It repeats itself over and over. With each completion of this wheel, each spin of our galaxy, mankind evolves a little more. Interestingly, there are two points where it's been said a major "shift" occurs. They are points 900 years from either end, as I've shown here with red dots. At these points a cataclysm occurs which causes mankind to, for the most part, lose the memory of its history and sort of have to start over. It's like a "ten steps forward, 8 or 9 steps back" sort of progression. With each revolution we progress a little bit further. Then we struggle again thru major challenges roughly every 13,000 years apart. Each time we continue on our evolution thru the cycles.
These ancient wheels of Time as well as the Mayan Calender and other sources all point toward something major happening in the very near future. A global "shift". The Mayans, who were masters at calendars and calculating time, created a calendar that stops on December 21st, 2012. They said that time will be different after that date.
This 2012 thing is a fascinating phenomenon to look at. To observe it from a few different perspectives. From what I've learned this particular change or "shift" won't be like others in the past. It's been said that this time we're going to retain our memory. It's not going to be total devastation. According to many different sources including the Mayan Calendar, Anthroposophists, Theosophists and many others who've looked into coming changes, the change that is due this time around will be remarkably different than those in the past. The Mayans themselves DID NOT say it would be "the end" of time. They said that Time will no longer be measured the same. That's a very provocative statement!
I was introduced to the first wheel below in 1974 while studying at the Waldorf Teacher Training Institute. At that time the Institute was in Detroit. The Waldorf system is based on the findings of the gifted clairvoyant Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925). We studied things right from the source of their truth, as seen thru clairvoyance. In acient times it was known as "prophecy". More recently it's been called Remote Viewing or simply clairvoyance. This Wheel of Great Ages had been discussed by Rudolf Steiner as valid thru his gift of clairvoyance. Its accuracy was also verified by my professor, Werner Glas, thru his own clairvoyance. Werner also pointed out the two places 900 years from either end of the wheel where some kind of a cataclysm occurs.
That class, as in so many classes throughout the two years I was studying there, was so fascinating! I sat there captivated by what Werner was telling us. He explained that the point on the right side of the wheel which I've shown in red, was almost 13,000 years ago. What happened then was the Great Flood which destroyed Atlantis. He explained to us that we are approaching another Noah-like scenario where people will need to be prepared for what is to come.
"The figure of Noah", Werner said in his deep dramatic voice with the British accent, "was an Atlantean."
.... It was such an intriguing statement!
Werner Glas went on to explain that the point just beyond the left end (which I've shown in red) is the point that we're approaching now. He explained that it's at this left edge at each cycle of the wheel where the great shift or change is more pronounced. It seems to me now, in light of the Mayan calendar, that this "shift" could possibly occur on December 21st, 2012. After I post this I will show a few other interesting things on the subject of the Great Ages on a separate page. The link to that page will be at the bottom of this one.
I've included in the wheel above 2 different versions of this Great Wheel of time. On the outer edge is how the ancient Hindu and Tibetan elders had divided and labeled it. On the inside is the interpretation using the Greek Zodiac names. Note that these zodiact Ages move in backward progression from our yearly zodiac signs. What interested me most was this Time Wheel of the exact duration for our galaxy to make a revolution - which a few different ancient civilizations all spoke of.
In light of current global weather etc., it's worth noting that they all spoke of a major occurance that is due to happen in the near future. I don't mean to spread any sense of doom - I just find it interesting to observe all this. What intrigues me most is that my professor had spoken about this same thing - an event that's coming. And then an 'extraordinary' series of events led to me finding a book called "Extraordinary TImes, Extraordinary Beings: Experiences of an American Diplomat with Maitreya and Masters of Wisdom" by Wayne S. Peterson. It was one more of the many "coincidences" that happen so often in my life.
This is how it happened. One morning over the summer I woke up for some odd reason with the realization that there were 3 books for me at a certain used bookstore in a distant part of town. It was a bookstore that I had never been to before. Stranger than that, I also knew that one was by Ingo Swann, who began the protocols for Remote Viewing, and that there were two other books on the subject of the Masters. I had a sense that these other two books were probably by the Theosophical Society who dealt quite a bit with the Masters. It's a subject that has intrigued me since my studies in Anthroposophy.
Sure enough! I got out there to find Ingo Swann's "Natural ESP" book and two others on the Masters by the Theosophical Society. Then as I was leaving another book caught my eye. It would prove to be most interesting because of the events that would follow. I found Wayne's book mentioned above. More "coincidences" led to my meeting Wayne that October of '07 in Nevada. He repeated much of what my professor had said. I found this so interesting! Both said that a great event is coming.
This may sound bizarre, but another thing that I find so interesting is that so many sources say that 42 Masters are here on Earth to help mankind make the transition. Quite a statement! It's so interesting to observe all this - all this coming together of ancient thoughts with current events and beliefs from several different sources both in the present and from the ancient past. Some of these sources said that the Masters will appear in human bodies looking life ordinary people. Their identity will be "disguised" it's time for it to be revealed.
For one more version of a great cycle of time, I've shown a native American wheel below. There are some interesting parallels to the others, including the exact duration of it and the fact that this one also shows our point in time as just entering a more enlightened "new age".
Followed
by notes of talks given by Rainbow Eagle in 2001 + 2002, in Toledo, Ohio.
What follows are Rainbow Eagle's words. Not mine. From notes I had taken. Any additions from me are in parentheses.
The Wheel of Ages of the Seneca nation is divided into 7 parts or "worlds". They say that we are now at the end of the 4th world, the world of Separation. Their legends say that it will end with the "return of comets".
In 1994 an Indian woman was typing and messages began coming thu her. In the ancient Indian tradition we're to honor our visions and what comes thru us. Indians are having more and more incidents like this, as well as visions.
Indians say that we're now in "a season" of their prophecies where we're given the opportunity to become strong. The Incas say we're in a stage of "meeting ourselves again". Senecas say that before we go into the 5th world of Illuminination in 2013, we must "say thank you" to fear and let go of it - no more of it. Thank "doom and gloom" too, and "all those religious prophecies". Make room for Joy and Optimism. The Senecas say that it's time to deal with our conflicts so that Nothing can any longer take away from our Personal Power.
The Ohio Mounds were made in 200 (not sure if I meant to write 2.000) b.c. to be seen from the air.
Going by the Mayan Calendar, at 5:23am on Dec. 21, 2012 there will be an amazing change. 2011 - 2013 is a "season of interesting things".
"When the eagle flies with the condor" means when the ancient wisdom of the south is welcomed by the "eagle" of the north. Then "Mother Earth will awaken". This is happening now. Tribes and people from the south (South America) and sharing wisdom with tribes of the north.
Weather patterns and poles will shift. The Earth is "birthing" into a "Golden Age of Peace and Harmony". Indian healing ceremonies for Mother Earth began in 1980 - to embrace Mother Earth and welcome a New Age or New World without going into fear and panic, but in a peaceful way.
The Incas got help building great stone structures from "The Luminous One". He left in the 1500s and said he'd return. The Incas then mistook the conquistadors for him. The "Luminous One" was known for "building cities in the sky". He told them he'd return "after the 13 hells" and after the "Age of meeting ourselves again".
The nations to have come and gone were: 1. Inca, 2. Seneca, 3. Aztec. The third nation to have come and gone may have been from "elsewhere". The Aztec calendar ended 8/13/99. They said the 12 - 14 years to follow would be determined by our actions.
Our mission is to direct people's focus from fear and destruction to Joy in Life. Especially to reach younger people.
5 comets will come before the "big change" There was a blue one. Then Hale Bopp was a red one, then 3 more, or what 'appear' to be comets.
The bottom line is that we're gong to make it! No "doom and gloom" scenario! ________________________________________________________
Sunday 4/29/01, at a talk in someone's home in Grand Rapids. Ohio.
The Jesuits were the only ones who entered Indian communities with the foresight of "seeing the Good and that there IS Good" in everyone. They became as the Indians until other French Jesuits came.
Also the "chaste" first Europeans thought cats were devilish and killed them - causing an imbalance which the native American Indians saw. It caused rampant rats and bubonic plague.
Someone was invited into the Vatican in the 1880s and saw ancient writings which were deleted fromt he bible. Some were interviews of the Holy Family by the Sanhedrin. They were finally published in 1980 as "Writings of The Sanhedrin". Some were interviews with Mary and her experiences with the angel. Book - "The Archko Volume".
(Very interesting records. The book contains interviews with the shepherds as well as local townspeople who were interrogated on exactly what they had seen the night Jesus was born. So interesting to read the descriptions in their own words. There are also records of separate interrogations held with Joseph and Mary on the person who came to tell them of the birth. The person they called an angel. It sheds a new light on the angel Gabriel who had come to both Mary and Joseph separately. He knocked on their doors and appeared like a normal person except that he seemed to emit a faint "glow". And many other records that had been kept in Constantinople and eventually moved to the Vatican.)
Back to my notes. More of Rainbow Eagle's words:
Sanhedrin
interviewed the Holy Family - Joseph and Mary,
along with whoever in the village had come out and heard/seen the
angels singing to announce Jesus' birth.
Joseph had been married before. He had previous children. When they interviewed Pilate he said that he really sensed that Jesus was the REAL Messiah. In the Arkho Volume it says "the vaults were emptied to the crowd" - on the day that the crowd chose Jesus over Barnabas - as a way of saying that it was up to them. They chose Jesus because he was too radical.
Jewish Sanhedrin and the Romans worked together on the crucifiction. Pilate "washed his hands" of it, which wasn't a Roman tradition. If he hadn't "washed his hands", he'd have been taken back to the Sanhedrin for them to complete the 12 steps needed before punishment. But a guard had seen him wash his hands and mistook it that he was to take the prisoner Jesus to the flogging. Family wasn't allowed at the crucifiction, by Roman rules.
Constantine felt that he was the Messiah, and that Jesus was not. That Jesus had failed and that he'd step into the role.
The image of satan with tail & horns came in the 1200s to add fear. ___________________________________________________________
Rainbow Eagle talk 10/5/01 at Rainbows and Roses shop in Toledo
MAYANS say that 1992 - 2012 is the "Time of No Time".
AZTECS said that before they had come there were 3 other civilizations that came and went on Earth.
INCA talk of the "return of the Luminous One". Inca lived 1500 - 1200 b.c. They were expecting his return in 2012.
LAKOTA have a tradition of "Star Bundles". It could possibly be a traditional ceremony about a parallel Earth maybe ...according to RE.
CHIEF SEATTLE said "Man has forgotten when he walked among the stars".
OMAHA always had 2 chiefs and 2 sacred pipes. One for those with a "Star Origin" and one for those from Earth.
Many Indian tribes have stories of "giants" who lived on or visited Earth.
There are 9 sacred White Buffalo now. The first one was born 8/20/94. A "miracle calf maiden" came.
PAWNEE arrange their teepees by the constellations.
LAKOTA have two Star Maps.
CAHOKIA civilization lived for 400 years outside of St. Louis. In 1500ad about six million Incans lived on Earth.

Mother Earth speaks to our spiritual journeys in 5 ways.
1. Form: what we see - even our bodies. But if we go beyond it to the true spirit we see the truth and break thru barriers.
2. Balance: everything has a potential balance to it. Fear of death and need for pleasure has brought us out of balance.
3. The Ability To Deal With All: all energies. That's our spirituality.
4. We are here to learn lessons from All experiences.
5. We are just where we need to be.
The Inca have been waiting 5,000 years for the prophecy of the Condor of the south flying with the Eagle of the north.
Incas say our solar susten cycles around a point approximately every 26,000 years. They say that 5 times in this cycle there's a "tunnel of the 13 serpents". No holy ceremonies are going to welcome the "sacred serpent" Quetzalcoatl.
The Earth is encircled by a "Sacred Council". Some Native Americans have been in contact with that Council.
ANASAZIs last ceremony in the teepee was to connect deeply with themselves and with another point in the cosmos.
SENECAs have a time wheel with the fifth part or "Fifth World" a "Time of Illumination" to begin in 2012 and bring 1.000 years of Peace.
Book recommended "Other Council Fires Were Here Before Ours", by Twyla Nitsche (sp?) and Janie Sams

I've shown the Wheel of Ages again below to compare it with the precession image. Again, on the outer edge is the Wheel of Ages as given by ancient Tibetans & Hindus. They said, interestingly, that it was given to them by "the ancient ones".This could possibly have been the Atlanteans, or the Lemurians which was a culture that began before and then overlapped with the Atlanteans for a time. Lemuria was in the Pacific. Asian civilizations are believed to be descendants of Lemurians.
In the Tibetan and Hindu view there were 4 Yugas (Ages) which mirrored each other on each side of this Wheel of Ages, making 8 divisions in all. Their duration changed progressively, as I've shown by the fractions below each one. On the inside of the wheel are the ancient Greek Ages which have the zodiac names. Each one varies in length, lasting from roughly 900 to over 2,000 years.
In the perspective of this wheel, we're moving from the darkest Age (Kali Yuga), and also from the old Pisces, more dreamlike influence. At the same time we're emerging from the side of the wheel that's "falling asleep" with all the affects of those influences - into a Golden Age as well as the uplifting Age of Aquarius. At the same time we're coming onto the awakening side of the wheel which is moving toward the center of our Universe. Interestingly, I just read something relating to this in the Cayce biography by W. H. Church called "Many Happy Returns". Cayce said that the center of our universe is Arcturus.
This wheel of Great Ages can be seen in the following books: "Nothing In This Book Is True, But It's Exactly How Things Are" by Bob Frissell. The wheel is also in Drunvalo's "Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life" Book 1.
We are approaching a crucial point in time. In a way it sort of feels like elements of Noah. Of preparing for a shift into a New Earth, as Eckhart Tolle put it. (I highly recommend his book "A New Earth", by the way. I recognize him as a great Teacher and a great soul. I'd encourage you to get the audio version on cd's. He reads it himself, and it's wonderful to hear Tolle's voice and what he emphasizes. Even more touching to me is the audio version of his previous book, The Power of Now.)
Again, the outer edge of the wheel below has the ancient Hindu and Tibetan names for the Ages or what they call "Yugas". On the inside is the ancient Greek zodiac terms used for the Ages. Oh! One other thing! If you were to do a search on the Yugas, you'd find that the Hindus and Tibetans put the Greek Ages at the opposite ends of their wheel from what I've shown here. Werner explained and emphasized that they had this wrong! The way I've drawn it here is the correct way. We're emerging from the Kali Yuga and also from the Piscean Age and into the Aquarian Age, as shown here.
At the bottom of this page there's a link to more information on the Ages. I'm going to point out more interesting elements about the Great Ages. I'll make another page.
People don't know the exact beginning date for this Aquarian Age, or if there IS an exact beginning date. The influence of each Age is felt decades before its actual advent. Sensitive people feel the influence of each "new age" before others. They help to usher in the new perspective of thinking that each Age brings decades ahead of time.
The actual start of the Age could possibly be December 21st, 2012, as the Mayans had indicated. The Mayans had said that "time will no longer be measured the same" as of that date. I speculate that the great shift could possibly take place on that date. One more thing, as I'm discussing all this. Something which might give a little practical view of how to prepare for this shift. Of all the people you hear or read about who discuss this 2012 shift, it's all just speculation. I've just recently seen scientists - it was probably on the National Geographic and Discovery Channels - speaking of a "great alignment" of planets that's going to occur. It's going to be greater, and will encompass more celestial bodies, than other alignments that have occurred over the centuries. This "great alignment" happens to take place roughly every 13,000 years. Guess what?! They've said that it happens on December 21st, 2012! The scientists said that they expect some sort of effects, but they have no idea what.
Of all the many people I've heard talk about 2012, no one - not even the scientists - know what to expect. The only person that I've heard give any practical advice was my professor back in the mid 70s. For whatever it may be worth, I'll pass along what he had said. He pointed out the "three days of darkness" that were spoken of in the bible. He said that for those "three days" it will seem like utter chaos, and that many people will just "lose it". I'm assuming that this could very well be the December 21st, 2012 date. He gave us a few very important instuctions to remember - and he emphasized their importance. He said, first of all, for some reason when we recognize the start of these 3 days we're to close our curtains and anything that lets in the outside light. He gave us the impression that we'd recognize when the time was right. He said to tape around the edges of doors and windows so that there's absolutely no opening to the outside. I can't imagine why, but it's sort of 'shades of' Lot's wife - where she looked and turned to a pillar of salt.
Arrow points to the Center of our Universe
I'm including the image below for the depiction of Earth's procession. The axis makes an eliptical revolution over this period. Just to show another image of what's happening with the Earth over that period. This image is from Drunvalo's "Ancient Secrets of the Flower of Life" book 1. It's good for the simpler depiction of the circled 'shift' points, altho Drunvalo seemed to feel that it would be in the '90s. He also marked it further to the right than it should be. Those periods occur 900 years beyond each end. Actually my red mark above, as well as the Aquarius division, should be closer to the end as well to be mathematically correct. This gives you the idea tho.
This is a mistake. It should read "Center
of the Universe".
