The Election and the Aquarian Age

[Guest guest]

I have been saying, for probably the past twenty years, that there would come a

point in

our lifetimes that we, humanity, would decide whether or not we would continue

to

survive on this planet. For most of this time, I was thinking that we would not

know when

or whether we would have made this decision; that the making of this decision

would not

be some cognitive process made as the result of discussion and debate, but would

be

made by our actions; and I was not particularly thinking that this decision

would be made

by one country alone. But it occurred to me today, during my morning practice,

that it

could well be possible that we in the USA may well be making this decision for

all of the

world through this upcoming election.

 

The completion of the transition to the Aquarian Age is two years away. I have

long

thought that it would occur in one of two modes: either entering into a time of

great chaos

and destruction, or the beginning of humanity shifting from, as Elisabet

Sahtouris frames

it, an immature species (which competes with all aspects of its environment) to

a mature

species (which lives in harmony with its environment).

 

On the one hand we have McCain and Palin, quick to anger, speaking of war with

Russia as

if it was about rifles and bayonets instead of nuclear weapons and the end of

life as we

know it, and eager for war as a core instrument of foreign policy. On the

other, we have

Obama and Biden, for all that they are mainstream politicians (with all the

detritus of being

such), ready to address the great world issues with consciousness and

intelligence.

 

With Obama as President, I can see this world economic crisis as a profound

opportunity to

begin to build a functional way for the world to conduct its business, instead

of what is

has been for far too long, where we have been (again as Elisabet Sahtouris

frames it) a

desert building species and a cancer on the face of the planet.

 

I have not dared to hope for consciousness and wisdom to begin to manifest in

our

government for so long, I had almost let go of thinking it could be possible.

I urge you that if there is anything more that you may yet do to help win this

election, do

it now.

 

Hope awakens in my heart as I hold my breath and wait these eight more days.

 

In hope for humanity,

 

Love and blessings,
