Extreme Weather Grips the Country

Snow in Atlanta is usually a welcome commodity. It is customarily a day that children and adults enjoy alike. After all, the city literally closes down, no school, few business openings and even government offices closed. But, this snow is different; it is one for the record book.

The city saw record snow falls on Monday, which led to mass closings of businesses, schools and government offices. With few people moving about, even the new governor Nathan Deal was sworn in without much fanfare. Today's temperature is supposed to go above the freezing mark, with hopes that much of the snow will melt. But, what doesn't melt will no doubt freeze over night and leave the city at wits end until the latter part of the week when the temperatures are expected to raise above freezing again.

This unprecedented snow storm, alone with the snow storm on Christmas day, the first snow storm on Christmas since the 1800s, has left some Atlantans wondering what does this mean. Is it the beginning of Armageddon? After all, other cities have been experiencing extreme weather as well. Because of these types of questions, I thought it would be interesting for us to look at speculative causes of the extreme weather we and the entire world are experiencing.

First, some believe that we are experiencing extreme weather because of the switching of the north and south poles. When this occurs, the south will become the new north and vice versa. This is an age old prophecy that the north and south poles will switch in the 12th Day of Aquarius, which we are currently in. The 12th Day of Aquarius means that which has been hidden will be seen; that which has not been heard, will be told. In other words, the veil will be lifted.

Let's examine this theory; accordingly, it takes about 25,800 years for the Solar System to complete a circuit of the galactic center, which is called the Black Sun. For half of the 25,800 years Earth is tilted towards the Black Sun, the source of light and for the second 12,900 years it is tilted away. Esoterically meaning that the planet is bathed in positive light for 12,900 years and then moves into the darkness for 12,900 years, interestingly enough, it was 12,900 years ago that the last golden age is estimated to have occurred, concluding in cataclysm and conflict. According to this theory, we are now re-entering the light, the light which means information, illumination and awareness. And with this change comes extreme adjustments in both the weather and our personal life.

Another reason why some think we are having extreme weather is global warming. It is believe that gases emitted are actually heating up the planet. Some believe that before it is truly heated up that we will experience extreme weather. Many of the religious theorists also believe this to be true and points out in revelations that the earth is to be destroyed this time by fire in comparison with flood the last time it was destroyed.

Most have heard of the Mayan's and their calendar, which predicts the end of life on earth in 2012, leading to some great movies. The 2012 phenomenon comprises a range of eschatological beliefs that cataclysmic or transformative events will occur on December 21, 2012, which is said to be the end-date of a 5,125-year-long cycle in the Mayan Long Count calendar.

Perhaps one or all of these theories have some validity. Perhaps the poles are switching, there is global warming or there is an end coming according to the Mayan's calendar. The bottom line is right now they are simply theories. Now, no matter why we are experiencing extreme weather it makes an interesting conversation piece, one in which we can speculate and watch. For fellow Atlantans, I say for now, just enjoy your day off and we will figure out the reason when the time comes.
