Shifting Into Madness

Stories are circulating all over the internet among New Age circles about how this 2012 Shift has affected people. Forums and social media users are reporting everything from drastic spiritual upheaval and sudden poverty to full out 'body buzzing' and discovering soul origins. People are changing their names and their religions completely out of the blue. I can't help but wonder, are we experiencing nothing more than some sort of mass hysteria?

We have to admit that there sure was a lot of hype and build up for so long about December 21, 2012...The Shift. I wonder how many of these people who are claiming to have had these 'shifts' are actually just pretending they did (or trying to convince themselves that they did) because they don't want to look crazy like Harold Camping, that preacher we all know and love who falsely predicted The Rapture a number of times. We'll never know how many are truly experiencing this predicted phenomena....I'm sure no one would  ever willingly admit they made it up.

I tried...I really did. I watched a couple hours worth of Youtube videos while sewing this afternoon in the attempt to grasp this whole Soul Origin concept and the Starseed awakening that apparently happened last month. I'd get 5 minutes in and have to turn it off because it just seemed so utterly ridiculous to me. Then I'd say to myself, "Rhonda, you need to approach this with an open mind if you want to understand....you don't have to agree with it" and I would finish the video with a less judgmental attitude.

An open mind has always served me well, but my perception of this entire concept just made me sad. All I see are people who are not happy with themselves...their lives...trying to make their existences special and meaningful in some small way.  Every soul is special and unique, and just by existing and carrying on with your life, you are making a meaningful impact on the evolution of our society. Being from Pleiades doesn't make you special, YOU make you special! :-)
