In fact the eyes of a Yin Yang figure actually represent the most extreme phases of the Moon, with which owls, as night creatures, are also associated. The Moon is not seen when it is conjunct the Sun and it is always opposite the Sun when it is full. Sowhen the Sun is strong the Moon is weak, and when the Moon is weak the Sun is strong. I Ching and Eight Moon Phases on a World Tree. The upper black Moon and the lower white or full Moon form the two eyes of Yin and Yang whose bodies represent the increase and decrease of the Yang or solar energy Understanding the language of Yin and Yang, or the I Ching, is a very ancient study going back over 5000 years.

Terence Mckenna was a modern guru directed on the American continent to the Chinese I Ching a long time ago. It led him to an early understanding of what 2012 was all about with his now famous “Timewave Zero”. I too was attracted to Yin and Yang as it became necessary to simplify the idea of the Heavenly Clock for my book on the Galactic Centre and 2012. What particularly attracted my attention to this Yin Yang crop circle of the owl were the lines made by the tractor in the crop

that ran directly through both its eyes. I had noticed this before in other crop circles. I see this alignment, or line through two “eyes” as in fact extremely significant. I had associated it in my book with a “galactic alignment”1 and a Great Year cycle. What I found was that the solstice galactic axis alignment that occurs in 2012 marked a return of Yang energy and the beginning of a rising Yang period.

Yang always rises, it is part of its fiery nature, just as rain always falls, and that is part of its watery nature. This reversal from a falling or descending period of Yin to an ascending period of Yang was what the Milky Way’s galactic axis aligning with the Winter Solstice was all about.

But I also found that this return of Yang was also associated with, or represented by a mountain: as Yin was associated with the concave valley and the waters of such valleys, so Yang was always associated with the convex pyramidal form of the mountain, and the fiery risings that created it.

“These valleys of the Earth shall come to an End” we are told by the 16th century Jaguar priests of the Maya, when telling about 2012, but not all will be over for “after death” they tell that “the katun of our fathers will ascend on high”! (Tizimin p. 16, from Geoff Stray).

1 “Galactic Alignment” is a popular term in connection with 2012, originally coined by John Major Jenkins, who

sees his ideas as very different to my own and wishes that to be made absolutely clear!

The Bible tells also in Revelation that there shall be no more sea and that a holy mountain will return from where the son of God shall reign on Earth.

What all the prophecies for 2012 were actually referring back to, with their idea of a human figure returning, like Quetzalcoatl, was the return of the world mountain. The world mountain was the Cosmic Man on Earth, the Son of Man who acted for the creator and was associated with the constellation of Orion whose name is translated as “mountain man”, it is he who would begin to rise again. This becomes clearer when one sees the symbolism of Orion, his hourglass form, or his three belt stars in a row used in representing the world mountain.

As all prophecies are remains of one global prophecy, the idea of the pillar like mountain called Atlas on Atlantis, and the world mountain Meru in the East and even the Christian idea of Eden, are all pieces of one and the same memory.

The eyes of Yin and Yang represent the most extreme phases of the Moon. When the Yang energy is

strongest the Yin is weakest. But at maximum Yin the Moon is strongest. This is the time of the Full

Moon below, it is unfortunately often reflected in a society full of strong, powerful or aggressive

women and weak, effeminate, drunken or immoral men. This time of the Full Moon coincides in the I

Ching with the month of Sagittarius, from 21 November to 21 December.

In ancient and seemingly almost global understanding Sagittarius was the lunar archer, the same as

the white horseman with a bow as described in Revelation. The centaur associated with this area was

usually also a very violent creature that one had to hide any form of alcohol from. People who work

in hospital emergency units know the power of the Full Moon!

When the Moon was full it was seen as a stretched bow. At the solstice time when the Sun grew

weak and old the lunar archer, sometimes a woman like Artemis who shot at Orion and sometimes

as a man in China, who shot at the Sun at the time of its opposition to the Sun, he shot down the Sun

and was sometimes pictured standing in a valley shooting down all the zodiac creatures of the solar

year as they stood or hid on a high mountain

Zhongri2. So there was a sense that the white lunar horseman archer triggered the

year when the Sun died for three days.

There is also evidence to suggest that this alignment around 2012 of the galactic axis with the solstice

axis brings a polar reversal, as this seems to have been recorded by the legendary

the eight phases of the Moon could be attached as fruits. The Chinese philosophers certainly had a

very exact way of understanding the galactic cycles.

In fact there were three cycles which could all be understood in the same way, the daily cycle which

showed maximum dark or Yin at midnight, then the Yearly cycle which showed maximum dark at the

winter solstice time and then the Great Year cycle which showed maximum connected to the Galactic

Centre or K’un, yet here that dark was also lighted by the presence of a white lunar horse – a mare –

so our Galactic Goddess reflected her powers in the white Moon and

the dark Earth.

Many crop circles have been placed before the symbolic white horse

for it is She who is about to give birth, our Earth with her lunar cycles

is the Mare – Mary who will birth the fiery Yang principle associated

with the Sun on a daily and yearly level, and with Orion on a galactic

level; Orion opposite the Galactic Centre stands for the Yang principle

– the male spiritual godly principle.

I had summarized this in relation to another crop circle a while back.

The vertical runs through the eyes of the Yin Yang figure on the crop circle on the left and strong

evidence that they were suggesting a Great Year solstice reversal was the fact that it was placed on

21 June 2009 – on the Summer Solstice.

I am not the only one who associates the Yin Yang symbol with a way of marking the solstices.

It was placed not far from West Kennet Mound and a picture of a White Horse on a hill!

The image on the left is from an article “Where does the Yin Yang Symbol come

from?” i

But here I am extending the idea, as I did in my book,

to suggest that this same idea references a daily

cycle and a Great Year Solstice alignment. This means

that when Jesus in Matthew tells of a time of coming

tribulation and references midnight, winter and the

Sabbath, he is referencing the Great Year alignment

of the Galactic Centre with the winter solstice that

we are experiencing now.

Already May 8 2008 had brought a message with a similar simplicity but here also suggesting a

possible reversal.

There are of course other less obvious ones that combine the bird imagery with the Yin Yang imagery
