I thought the main date was 21st 12 2011 ? ,but it is on that day that the planets line up and many things happen .
Basically , the western consumer, technological lifestyle that we live , will come to an end . It does not necessarily mean the end of the world , although there will/may be very many changes for most.
It doesn't actually take much for out lifestyle to come to a total halt . A pole shift can do it quite effectively , and if the pole shift were too also include major tectonic plate shifting , as is now happening , then TSCHTF .
At the moment it could be the suns activity , sunspots , causing the problem of tectonic plate shift , as well as any 'magnetic' pole shift . The suns activity is increasing as it does every so many years , and 2012/13 is a massive year for sun activity .
A magnetic pole shift is totally different to an axis type pole shift , although for technology , it would be just as fatal .
At the moment we have other things happening as well . On the 15th of this month , the comet Elenin will pass very close to earth . It will be many thousands of miles away , and is not in the least likely to hit us, but, it's gravitational pull will already be affecting the planet . The degree that it affects earth is what nobody knows , until it passes .
Over six months ago maybe even a year , I read about how it ,Elenin, could cause huge tectonic plate shift , as is now happening in the ring of fire . All around the plate earthquakes are happening like at no other time . The worst so far being the one in Japan. That doesn't mean that the one in Japan IS the worst though !! . It looks as though the big one ? 8.9 , may well be just one of many . The next 72 hours is the most likely time for another huge one , making this one look like small potatoes .
The gravitational pull of Elenin could? , cause much more tectonic plate shift than has occurred so far , with massive tsunamis happening all over the planet . If the plate the the UK sits on were to shift as some say it may , then the UK could sink by 78 feet, and due to the worlds plates shifting all over , the sea could rise buy as much as 200 feet. This figure could be much worse over time if the world were to shift axis by more than a few degrees as the poles would then not be the pole anymore , and they would melt making the seas rise even more .
Therefore the UK could be just a series of smaller islands with Ireland disappearing altogether possibly .
The closeness of the comet could cause the earth to actually stop turning for some time , and this would be the major reason for the massive tectonic plate that would send the seas ploshing from one side to the other in a series of tsunamis anything up to 1000 feet high , some say maybe even a mile high , and at speeds of 500 mph or more.
As well as Elenin on the 15th , there is the super moon on the 19th . This where the moon comes closer to earth than it has for years . Again it is gravitational pull that may cause huge problems , when put in conjunction with the effects of Elenin , as well as the sunspots that are continually hitting earth at the moment.
So ... there are a few things happening at the moment , none are good . And the earthquakes and volcano eruptions that are happening ARE caused by one or all or a mix of these things . It makes little difference which one is causing the problems , just that they will be lasting some time , maybe even up to and after 21 12 2012 !!
We in the UK may not be excluded from this turmoil , the fact that the UK just held a huge country wide flood exercise involving 10,000 people , may well be just a coincidence , or it may point to other possibilities ? There is a fault in the tectonic plate just below Ireland !!!
All I can say is I am glad I live at about 1000 feet above sea level , and that I have enough food to get by with , till I can grow enough to live on .
cheers
