Due to a steadily increasing number of recommendations, I am investigating turning this page into a Facebook/Blog portal. For now, the page of last year's 2011 Updates can be found here.

The Chinese proclaim 2012 as the Year of the Dragon. Coincidentally, the lost civilizations of Mesoamerica predicted their serpent/bird dragon Quetzalcoatl would make an appearance around this time to oversee the end of this world and the coming of another.

So, with a new year, comes a new banner:

 

Seek Truth, but find Clarity

 

Watch out, because artifice is shaping the halls of VR faster'n Hollywood passing out the latest CGI blockbuster. Your new neighbors are gonna be Fred and Wilma Sims. It's becoming harder to discern between alive and dead, energy and power, or spirit and fetish. I guess that's why zombies are so popular.

And what better way to start the New Year than by looking for the synchronous slitherings of the Aztec dragon-god Quetzalcoatl prophizing that the winter solstice of 2012 will be the "End of Days" for our familiar, agreed-upon reality? But, of more importance, it signifies the demise of the current 5,000-year cycle of compounding knowledge that concludes with the accepted notions of a clockwork universe. Transformative, Quetzalcoatl stands harbinger to a vast evolutionary cosmic conjunction, tempting us with a potential gateway to a higher, cognitive metamorphsis. Could this be a "movement of consciousness returning us to levels of past, mythic awareness denied and repressed by the materialist thrust of our current civilization?" (see below, p.9)
