Return of the Children of Light: Incan and Mayan Prophecies for a New World by Judith Bluestone Polich

by Judith Polich

A personal exploration of the conjunction between ancient Mesoamerican prophesy and New Age higher consciousness.Selected by the Independent Publisher's Book Awards as one of the top two New Age books of the year.Explores ancient prophesies and their relevance in the contemporary world.The Incan and Mayan cultures saw themselves as "children of light"--descended from celestial realms--and their prophecies foretell a time of great spiritual awakening. They prophesied a time when the gateways to higher consciousness would open once again. That time is now.Award-winning author Judith Bluestone Polich draws on her extensive research in quantum physics, archeoastronomy, holography, cosmology, and pioneering studies of human consciousness to show how science and contemporary thought are consistent with this ancient knowledge. As the ancients predicted, the human god-seed is beginning to awaken, and modern civilization is finally beginning to perceive human potential in ways that the ancient cultures accepted as truth. Polich introduces techniques for awakening our own human potential through dreaming, meditations, and the power of sacred sites.

Great explanation for the shift that is slowly taking place in our society. I hope that the mass consciousness will grow geometrically and that enlightenment will become the norm. This should become a must read to help everyone put a new perspective on things.

Wir befinden uns als Menschheit mitten in einem Übergang zu einem neuem Zeitalter, gerechnet in Zyklen, die jeweils 2160 Jahre dauern. Momentan befinden wir uns noch im astrologischen Zeitalter von „Pisces“ bzw. Fische (♓️). Nun geschieht allmählich der Wechsel zum Zeitalter „Aquarius“ bzw. Wassermann (♒️). Das Ende des Zeitalter „Pisces“ stimmt zimlich genau auch mit dem Ende des Mayakalenders (2012) überein. Verschiedenste Prophezeiungen besagen (auch die der Inka), dass in einem Übergang zu einem neuen astrologischen Zeitalter neue Kräfte, neue Energien und neues profundes Wissen zur Verfügung steht.

Es ist gut möglich, dass wir als Menschheit noch längst nicht unser höchstes Potenzial (in Bezug auf unseren Bewusstheitsgrad) erreicht haben. Wissenschaftler haben herausgefunden, dass die meisten DNA Komponenten in unserem Körper keine wirkliche Funktion haben. Nur 3% unserer DNA gelten als aktiv wirkend und nützlich. Die restlichen 97% stellen womöglich unser bisher noch nicht genutztes Potenzial dar.

Und noch zu Carl Gustav Jung‘s Interpretation zu der Symbolik vom Sternzeichen Fisch: Er sieht darin zwei verschiedene Kräft, die einander entgegenwirken. Ein Fisch repräsentiert das Streben nach dem Materiellen, der andere Fisch das Streben zum Spirituellen. Wir befinden und als Menschheit zurzeit genau in diesem Konflikt und die Symbolik vom Wassermann könnte verraten, dass wir diesen Konflikt auflösen und von einem Zustand der Unbewusstheit aufwachen, hin zu einem Zustand der Ganzheit und Integration.

I read this a few years ago as part of an interest in Incan/South American spirituality and gods. It's a very interesting read and has some great concepts, but has a strong New Age-y / 'beings of light are coming to save us and change the world' bent that made it a little hard to swallow.
