I'm glad you are bringing this up. I can't help but start to re-visit my theories I had several years ago that perhaps we really are in the midst of one of these shifts. That there are some who know this and thus are "celebrating" and possible "preparing" for these changes that are unfolding as we speak.

Sounds "crazy" - but all religions have their origins in man's relationship to the earth and the heavens and the extent of the recording of these cyclical shifts is borne out in the legends and mythology embedded in our major Judeo-Christian paradigm.

Christ indeed - the inductor of the Piscean age and 2000 years later here we are . . . cruci-fiction to cruci-fiction.

"The idea that early man was able to recognise the precession of the equinoxes is central to the development of astro-mythology. Athanasius Kircher and Charles Dupuis illustrated this opinion with mythological zodaical planispheres.[22] Observation of precession of the pole stars through a complete cycle of some 26,800 years was considered by Massey as necessary for man to develop a complete cataclysmic ‘deluge’ myth. A minor ‘deluge’ would occur as each pole star or the group of seven constellation star markers was replaced by the following one. Constellations that have been identified are Draco, Hercules, Lyra, Cygnus and Cepheus, with this era's Pole Star being Polaris, in Ursa Minor. "
