We are referring to the precession of earth’s axis, or the precession of equinoxes (Latin: praecessio aequinoctiorum). The cycle of precession lies at the root of everything that is currently happening and that will happen in the near future on our planet.
The precession of equinoxes is the slow movement of the Earth’s axis of rotation in a cone-shaped path over a period of 25,920 years. This phenomenon is easily demonstrated using a spinning top (the children’s toy) as an example. If you spin a top, it will turn about its axis while simultaneously exhibiting a wavering motion which increases in relation to the decrease in the speed at which the top spins.
The thing is, the planet Earth is not a perfect sphere, it is somewhat flattened at the poles and slightly more convex at the equator. Additionally, the Earth’s core is shifted away from its center towards the surface by the irregular gravitational forces exerted on the Earth by the Moon and Sun. As a result we have precession, in the process of which the Earth’s axis of rotation moves in a cone, pointing in turn to various constellations, which are famous as the Signs of the Zodiac: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces, twelve constellations in total. The projection of Earth’s axis changes from one Sign to the next in the course of 2,160 years (25,920:12) and people have long become accustomed to refer to these periods as epochs or eras, as in the Era of Taurus, the Era of Pisces and so on.
These epochs make up a unique chronological scale according to which proceed changes to both people’s consciousness and the psycho-physiological condition of humanity.
Having proceeded through all twelve constellations, the projection of Earth’s axis intersects two important points: its maximum and minimum distances from the center of our galaxy the Milky Way. The fact that the magnetic field at the center of the Milky Way is ten times stronger than in the rest of the galaxy is of principle importance to us.
The world renowned researcher of our civilization Drunvalo Melchizedek described the precession of the Earth’s axis in detail in his famed book The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life.
Diagram 1
In this book can be found drawings with images of the precession of equinoxes (the points at which the Earth’s celestial or astronomical equator intersects its ecliptic) thanks to the slow rotation of the Earth’s axis around the line perpendicular to its ecliptic (diagram 1).
The celestial equator is the large circle in the celestial sphere, the plane of which is perpendicular to the Earth’s axis.
Ecliptic is the name for the large circle of the celestial sphere along which the yearly movements of the center of the Sun proceed. The Sun is located exactly on the plane of the equator on the fall (September 23) and spring (March 21) equinoxes, when the length of the day is exactly equal to the length of the night.
The oscillating movement of the Earth’s axis takes the form of an oval: the large oval in diagram 2, which is taken from the same book, represents one such oscillation. The right end of the oval’s axis is called the apogee and points towards the center of the Galaxy. The lower half of the oval reflects the movement of the projection of the planet’s axis towards the center of the Galaxy, and the upper half shows when the axis, having returned to its point of origin, is moving away from the center of the Galaxy.
Diagram 2
Drunvalo Melchizedek writes: “Great changes do not happen on the outermost points of this oval, but soon after passing these points, as shown by the points labeled with small ovals A and C in diagram 2. Great changes occur at these two points… At this time, (in the ‘90s and in the first years of the twenty-first century) we are located on point A (the lower of the small ovals). This is a time of momentous change… As of recent the Earth’s magnetic field has been undergoing unheard-of changes.”
Drunvalo Melchizedek noted two more places in the drawing where serious change can occur using points B and D. He writes further:
“Point A is where we are right now and point C is the time when the Fall of Atlantis occurred. Point C also marks the moment of the shifting of the poles; science has established that it took place precisely then.
This is that time when the icecaps melted and the Great Flood from the story of Noah’s Ark occurred, resulting in all the changes that took place on the Earth at that time” [11].
And so, about 13,000 years ago, when half a cycle of precession of the Earth’s axis was completed, there occurred drastic changes in the Earth’s magnetosphere, which lead to the onset of a period of cataclysms. After this global tumult, the planet began to calm down and steadily proceed into a “hibernation period.” Those who survived the cataclysms also fell into slumber and during the span of thousands of years practically no evolution was seen on the Earth. Hunting, fishing and gathering were the primary concerns of humanity. However, around 6,000 years ago (point D in diagram 2) this slumber was suddenly interrupted. It was precisely then that highly developed civilizations arose practically simultaneously in Sumer (the territory of modern-day Iraq) and Egypt, for reasons completely unexplainable from the point of view of traditional science. As if at the call of a magic wand, amidst an almost complete absence of evolution, semi-wild tribes of hunters and fishers suddenly acquired fully developed language, literacy, and a deep knowledge in the areas of agriculture, astronomy, mathematics, geometry, hydraulics and simple sciences, including knowledge about the precession of equinoxes.
The reasons for these strange events are not included in this book; their analysis would cause us to digress far from the subject of our research. We will simply note that these answers can be found, they are included in Melchizedek’s abovementioned book The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life and in dozens of other works by modern scholars, which reveal the influences on humanity’s development in other civilizations. From among these, Graham Hancock’s books Fingerprints of the Gods and Keeper of Genesis, co-authored with Robert Bauval, deserve particular attention. The world renowned writer Zecharia Sitchin wrote a whole series of very interesting books about the origins and development of our civilization: The Lost Realms, The Cosmic Code, Journey to the Mythical Past and others.
Curious readers can easily search out these books in book stores or on the Internet. At the moment, we are interested in a different fact: why, after a short period of unprecedented development, did both the Sumerian and Egyptian civilizations, quickly fall into decline? Why did they begin to decay rather than steadily climbing up the evolutionary ladder?
The key thing is that their astounding knowledge was not the result of evolution, but came from an outside source. There occurred a powerful injection, and insertion of knowledge into these semi-wild tribes. The moment the injection ceased and a new one didn’t follow, mankind once again safely plunged into slumber and the ancient cultures fell into decline fully corresponding with the cycle of precession in which they existed. Do you remember the frequency of the planet’s vibrations, which remained constant throughout the past thousand years? It was 7.8 Hz, which corresponds to the vibrations of the human mind in sleep state. Until 1994, when the Schumann Frequency began to intensify, the Earth and mankind were in a state of hibernation and mass ignorance was the natural state of humanity. The cosmic rhythms defined the state of consciousness of the planet and of its population, and rare breakthroughs in the minds of individual people had no effect on the general psychological state of mankind.
