Time is only an illusion. An illusion put into place by people who’s experience of the Universe is finite.

Beginning. Middle. End. That’s all mortal beings are able to see because that is their limited view of reality. Birth. Life. Death. The truth is that all time exists at once. They are just unable to see it.

Imagine trying to enjoy the splendour of Leonardo DaVinci’s Mona Lisa with your nose pressed up against the canvas. From that perspective you will probably never truly be able to take in the whole picture, (you will probably also acquire an obscene amount of attention from Louvre security guards). Well, that is exactly how we are experiencing “all that is”…from a limited point of view.

The Big Puzzle
That said, there are clues to the rest of the grand picture. Clues which have been left by other people through history who have observed other parts of the whole and want to share with us what they’ve seen. And then there are the less scrupulous who want us to believe they have a piece to the puzzle or are able to see it all, but can’t. Those are the people who have been leading us down the garden path so to speak, for hundreds of years, hiding and in some cases even destroying the truth in order to keep us subjugated…but I digress.

What Is Precession?
It is possible to mark events in our passage through the infinite “all that is” and that’s were precession comes into the equation.

“Precession is a change in the orientation of the rotation axis of a rotating body” [1] in this case our planet, Earth. It takes 26,000 years for Earth to complete one precession, spinning like a lopsided top. During those 26,000 years we spend what is called “An Age” with each of the 12 signs of the zodiac dominating our night sky. An “Age” being approximately 2,150. We are now moving out of the age of Pisces (the fish) into the age of Aquarius (water).

And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age. (Matthew 28:20)

So does this mean Jesus will be returning to the Earth? Probably not, he’s dead. Jesus was executed as a political combatant by the Roman occupiers of the Holy Land almost 2,000 years ago. More likely what it means is that there is a change coming so great that even the principles of Christianity will become obsolete.

Christians are not the only ones who are anticipating a change on the horizon,  the ever popular Mayan calendar comes to an end on December 21, 2012 (11:11 am). Again this is not an indication of the end of the world but rather a moment of transition to something new. Other cultures and religions likewise have end time prophecies.

Before You Ask
A footnote to my “all time exists at once” idea from above. The Big Bang Theory is just a ‘theory’ that (again) is based on our limited understanding of the Universe. Based on the 12+ years of research that has brought me to my Nous Age Principle I now believe that the Steady State Theory of our Universe is likely more accurate from a scientific point of view…but I will leave that discussion for another post.
