Awaken All Ye Spirits

You might not be aware of this (I myself wasn't until recently), but yesterday was the Harmonic Concordance. Harmonic Concordance? Yes, the Harmonic Concordance.

Remember the Harmonic Convergance? Recall that moment of spiritual awakening? Just in case you missed it, here's a blurb I cobbled together from the web:

Harmonic Convergence
The great Harmonic Convergence of August 16, 1987 was the first astrology-based global celebration of our era. "Harmonic Convergence" describes the coming together of a group of energies to create a common tone. According to Mayan prophesy, the Harmonic Convergence initiated a 25-year cycle of transition that will conclude when we enter the Fifth World on December 21, 2012.

The period in history was defined as: "the point at which the counter-spin of history finally comes to a momentary halt, and the still imperceptible spin of post-history commences." It was the fulfillment of the prophecy of Quetzalcoatl, known as the Thirteen Heavens and Nine Hells. The prophecy stated that following the ninth hell, humanity would know and experience an unprecedented New Age of Peace. The Hell cycle ended on August 16, 1987; the Harmonic Convergence began on August 17. Thus began the projected twenty-five year culmination of the 5,125 year Great Cycle of History, as well as the 26,000-year cycle of evolution, both slated to end in 2012.

Now, according to the website HarmonicConvergence.com, like its spiritual ancestor, the Harmonic Convergence of 1987, the Harmonic Concordance of 2003 also is a call to the Spirit of Humankind to awaken to the idea that we are, in fact, Spiritual beings sharing a physical experience.

So there were celebrations by like-minded people (or whackos, if you're not feeling so generous) all over the world to bring in the Harmonic Convergance. My mom was threatenting to drag me to one of them here in Sedona, but she was exhausted from our hike and decided to crash in front of the idiot box instead.

I did see a good part of the lunar eclipse last night which was really cool. As for spiritual awakening and the end of the world as we know it, well, the jury is still out.
