2012 and the grand alignment. What does it really mean? It's not just about a calendar ending. It's really about an evolutionary beginning of a new cycle. Individually and collectively we all can play a part and help to make this transition a positive, enlightening experience. This video is an inspirational journey through the cosmos, with beautiful music from Enigma, and wonderful Hubble telescope photos. We hope to inspire and communicate in simple terms what is needed to help us make the necessary planetary shift in consciousness .

But how do we know that? What if it is the time of pole shifts, asteroids and volcanoes? We know geologically that something bad happens every 26000 years. Thats pretty good evidence of something bad happening. What evidence is there that says it will be a good experience?
