Hi Everyone. We are on the threshold of the Night of the 6th day of the Mayan Calendar which arrives on the 7th November through until November 2010, when the morning of the 7th and last day occurs. I thought it might be a good idea to find some references for you to have a look at. It might give you a perspective on what to expect. They are listed below.
My take on this is as follows. A plant flowers (morning of the 6th day we are now exiting). There is beauty and abundance of growth for those plants that survive the huge process of coming out of the seed and becoming plants. For some that haven't accessed the nourishment they needed, they wither and die, or struggle on but produce little in terms of flowering. On the human level, those that have taken care of themselves and their consciousness, probably are coming out of a period where things have been good: relationships have flourished, projects of long standing have prospered, health has stabilized. For those that have not done what they could to provide themselves with inner growth in the years before, they probably experienced the collapse of plans, etc. That time is approaching the end. The next cycle is a cycle of 'night' energy. This means in the plant world, the flowers wither and die on the stem. They have to, to allow the seed within to grow, for it is the seed that provides ongoing new life, and are actually the fruit itself. Some seed falls and becomes new growth in the next session. Some provides nourishment by being eaten (us, birds, insects etc). This metaphor can now be applied to ourselves to get a bit of a picture of what is to come over the next year. That which has lived out its use in our lives, will need to be let go of , to make way for a new beginning (which will not arrive until the morning of the 7th day next year). Ways of being that might have served us in the past, will not do so in the future. This could apply to ways of working, ways of thinking, ways of earning a living, pet beliefs about life, or just about anything that has reached the end of its shelf life. This could be hard if we have an investment in holding on to these things/people/events. The best we can do is recognise that holding on will only make us miserable, but change nothing. Acceptance and becoming aware of the new seeds stirring within us is the way to handle this: graciously! It is a time of waiting for the seeds to grow. Its not a time for impatiently 'making' things happen. Its no good 'tugging on the shoots'. Nurturing, loving patience will win the day. It is possible that some whose work is done will leave this life, making way for those in whom the new is bestowed. On a world stage, we are probably in for a rough ride as outlined in the articles and websites below. We cannot really go back to economic growth, because we do not have the planetary resources to do so, so despite the positive spin from the political spin-doctors, and media, it ain't gonna happen. Co-operation with each other and a sense of community is what will get us through all that. Grow veggies and share them. Help neighbours do what they cant. Stand by each other.That sort of thing. What we are able to shed, will provide a clear view of the possibility hidden within. And when the new day dawns, we will see what we will see before us.
Now, "The Way Through" my latest book is at the printers as we speak. It looks great and I am really pleased to have put out there a means by which people can get the groundwork for self development, and personal change (as long as they put it into action that is). For those of you that have pre-committed to purchase, it will onlt be a little while now. For those of you that have been putting it off, now is your last chance to commit to get the discount. The book will retail at $45. Pre-order discount gets it to you for $36 plus post and packaging for those of you that don't live locally enough to arrange pick-up. So contact me on sparrowhawk@spiritflight.co.nz straight away and register your binding intention to buy this great book. Further information and to view the cover, see http://www.spiritflight.co.nz/the_way_through/index.htm
Also, I will be running the first module of the Psychosynthesis Self Development course next June- Sept 12 weekly classes of 3 hours and 2 one-day workshops for $650. This will cover what is essentially Part 1 of the book. I am taking registrations now, and it is filling nicely. Don't wait as I will only be taking a small group as always. Payment can be arranged over time leading up to course commencement if necessary.
I am also offering Munay Ki initiations on a one-on-one bases from Carnegie Cottage now. Please give me a call on 021379104 if this interests you. Munay Ki workshop series of three will commence March 2010.
Bless you all. Sparrowhawk

1) The Sixth Night (Nov. 8, 2009 – Nov. 2, 2010), one last period of Dark in the cycle follows. In the plant’s life the flowers wilt and die setting the stage for fruit development or of seedpods that will dry. This is what happened to the Maya civilization right on queue. Throughout human history there have been conflicts and revolts during this period, the most recent of these having been the Viet Nam War.

3) 6th Night of the Mayan Calendar begins on November 8, 2009
From this perspective, where we are approaching the end of cyclical changes and the highest quantum state of the universe, it is also logical that the economic meltdown that we are now in is not merely a “recession” or a “depression”, such as we know to have been precipitated in the past by NIGHTS in the calendar. The decline is instead the beginning of the end to the cycles of the economy. Yet, since we know from the study of the Mayan calendar that the time periods when the economy shrinks are the NIGHTS we can make some predictions as to how this end of the economic cycles is going to play out. The first pulse of bringing the growth economy down thus came with the fifth NIGHT and led to a rapid decrease in growth, a fall in stock values, and increases of lay-offs and foreclosures. We are currently in a period in between such NIGHTS, the sixth DAY (see Figure 2), when the same processes are continuing more slowly and may even temporarily be slightly reversed. Around the time that the Sixth NIGHT begins on November 8, 2009 we may however expect that the meltdown intensifies and the US dollar collapses and with it the established monetary system in the world. Many things may trigger such an event, but it is important to understand that whatever triggers it, and this may be some kind of political event, it is the energy of this NIGHT that will bring it about. This incidentally, is also why it is so important what will be made of the rebirth energy of the second half of the sixth DAY.
We can only imagine what such a collapse will mean, but I feel it is clear to everyone that the consequences for our every day lives will be very far-reaching. Because of the hardships many may come to lose faith in this Creation or think that we are being punished. I look upon it differently: The consciousness of the Galactic Underworld is already preplanned to set in a protective mechanism for the planet by first stopping the growth, which is what any cancer doctor would do before any healing could take place.2 As the reader may now realize we have come to a point where the discussion of the end date of the Mayan calendar is a critical issue since how we relate to the future will directly depend on it. This is neither academic hairsplitting nor irresponsible New Age fantasies. Those that advocate the evidence-based Mayan end date of October 28, 2011 may in fact advice people to prepare themselves for this further economic meltdown beforehand in the sixth NIGHT. Those that talk about December 21, 2012 are however, consistently with their logic, likely to continue to make projections on this fantasy screen in the future. What these people in effect are saying to people is “Do not prepare yourself for the New World now! Wait until the shift comes December 21, 2012!” since they do not recognize any quantum shifts before this point in time. To know the exact end date is then a matter of paramount importance to people, because it is their only way of knowing what quantum shift they are experiencing in the present moment. While many people advocating the December 21, 2012 date are simply jumping on a bandwagon to create some visibility for themselves (and sell various products) I feel it is time that they consider what kind of responsibility this implies also for other people. It is probably not an accident that the first major Hollywood movie, surely planned to confuse people about the Mayan calendar and tout the December 21, 2012 date is scheduled to be released in November of 2009 as the sixth NIGHT begins. The ruling media will then use the December 21 2012 date to manipulate the truth and of course there are always some that are willing to play along. It is quite easy to see in whose interest it is that the Mayan calendar in this way is projected to a time in the future when all alignment with it will be too late.
As the established international monetary system collapses in the sixth NIGHT things can go essentially in either of two directions. It will go either in the direction of a grass roots organization of a new economy without banks, interests or growth serving to create a world without dominance. A collapse of the international monetary system, especially if it is linked to a moratorium of all debts, holds the potential of paving the way to a world that is truly egalitarian, based on willful cooperation and where greed will not destroy the world. This of course precludes the existence of a banking and monetary system organized in the interest of a minority and driven by the craving for abstract values rather than human needs.
I think however that it would be naïve to think that such an implementation of a New World according to the cosmic plan would happen without resistance. Some want to hold onto power over others. To many more the downfall of the established order of dominance would be shocking because it would ruin their experience of security in a world that they have become accustomed to. The bankers, governments, medias and ruling establishments world wide will then naturally seek to set up a new single global currency and remain in control, which they are very well prepared for. This especially the case if people are unaware of the evidence-based Mayan calendar and are able to see this difficult period as part of a process designed to lead to a new world. I am however convinced that the upcoming Universal Underworld will bring a new unity consciousness carrying a bliss of just being and love and compassion for all things just the way they are. Thus, things may not become “better” in the sense they were spoken of in the old economy, but life will be more enjoyable because of a new level of consciousness in which things are perceived in another way. Thus, in the years ahead we are in for a confusing mixture of seemingly conflicting developments. A critical aspect of preparation for this is the knowledge that the evidence-based Mayan calendar ends October 28, 2011, which at least gives people a benchmark for the rhythms with which things will evolve even though it will take a certain time for things to settle also after this.
The vision that is emerging for the time ahead is thus neither that “the world is going to an end,” nor that “we will all be happily flying” at a certain preset date in the future. Instead, we see a fairly complex scenario based on the best evidence that we have for an understanding of the future. It has much in common with the difficult birth scenario for the “New Jerusalem” as this is presented in the Book of Revelation. As this book points out this is however not a world for everyone and it is a scenario that almost certainly will require spiritual strength and integrity to endure. I do not want to add any religious overtones to this discussion, but it seems clear that everyone who is aspiring to enter this new world must sincerely seek the truth and avoid simplistic explanations.
Even if the Mayan calendar thus is universal and fundamentally connected to the Book of Revelation it is nonetheless important to know how the contemporary Maya see their end date. Naturally, some of them are happy that their calendar has received worldwide attention and may just believe what the archeologists have been telling them, which is December 21, 2012 (The actual Long Count upon which this date is based went out of use among the Maya a long time ago and so this date has been forwarded to them by modern archeologists). But more authoritative sources such as Don Alejandro Oxlaj of the Council of Elders are not just jumping on the bandwagon. As anyone who has seen the interview I made with him two years ago (available on DVD from Mayan Majix) he rejects the December 21, 2012 date as a miscalculation (Something that at the time was actually a surprise to me). He also carries the prophecy of the Thirteen Baktuns and 13 Ahau, consistent with the October 28, 2011 date (which is 13 Ahau). Unlike myself he however does not specify an end date, even though we do agree that the last katun shift (beginning of the last 7200 day prophetic period) took place in 1992. Around this katun shift at February 10, 1992 we can also very clearly see that major events, a quantum shift, shaping the whole world took place: The end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet Union (December 25, 1991), the institution of the European Union, (February 7, 1992) and the launching of the World Wide Web (August 1991). By the time of the katun shift advocated by the December 21, 2012 people (John Jenkins says April 1993 in the “Doomsday” documentary on History Channel) the new world was thus already established. Also in the future the people embracing this end date will thus always be in the backwater of what is really happening in the world. This demonstrates the utmost importance of the end date and that those who want to be consciously part of the coming quantum shifts ahead and surf on the waves of creation that these generate will miss that opportunity if they reject the evidence based Mayan calendar with its end date of October 28, 2011. If you ignore the evidence and listen to the December 21, 2012 “alignment”3 prophets this is likely to have very serious direct consequences for your own life and how you approach the future. With the acceleration of time in the Galactic Underworld the difference of 420 days between the two end dates is literally as big as that between day and night.
