Terence McKenna linked the I Ching to 2012

!946-2000

Terence was a White Lunar Wind (challenge to communicate spirit)

Terence McKenna using computer technolgy and the I Ching came up with an
end date for this world at

11:10 pm Dec 22 2012.

Here are some of his quotes about time:

Our planet is on a collision course with something that we, at our present state of knowledge, don’t have a word for. A black hole is simply a gravitationally massive object, so massive that no light can leave it. What I’m talking about is something like that, except that it isn’t so much gravitationally massive as temporally massive. We are soon to be sucked into the body of eternity. My model points to 11:18 am, Greenwich Mean Time, December 21, 2012 AD.

I submit to you and to the world for your examination and critiquing the fact that yes, the time wave with it’s end point December 21, 2012, describes with as great an accuracy as I am able to discern the actual vicissitudes of novelty and habit in history and natural history ... that’s the claim

Terence McKenna Timewave Zero

Time, like light, may best be described as a union of opposites. Time may be both wave and, ultimately, particle, each in some sense a reflection of the other. The same holographic properties that have long been an accepted part of the phenomenon of the perception of three-dimensional space also suggest that interference patterns are characteristic of process. Living beings especially illustrate this: They are an instance of the superimposition of many different chemical waves, waves of gene expression and of gene inhibition, waves of energy release and energy consumption forming the standing wave interference patterns characteristic of life.

Understanding the Novelty of Time

We are on a collision course with an event for which there is barely language to describe. I would like to suggest that what is happening on this planet is that time is actually speeding up. Our species is under the influence of a kind of strange attractor which is moving us through the temporal medium at an ever-accelerating rate. This is a law of the universe, though not one recognized by science.

The I Ching

The I Ching is an ancient divinatory system based on 8 hexagrams and where it comes from nobody really knows.

It is known that it was developed by Emperors and later
Confusicus himself improved upon it. The people of the West first noticed it when Richard
Wilheim translated into German and English. It was then endorsed my C.G. Jung who
was excited about it’s links with his theories of synchonicity. Today, Jose Arguiilles
author of the Mayan Factor, regards it as revelant today as it was 5,000 years ago.

The I Ching is translated as meaning ‘The Book of Changes’.

To consult the book of changes, you must ask your question and then throw down your
yarrow stalks. Today it is more common to use three coins as they are easier to come by.

When you throw down three coins you end up with combinations that are translated
into lines. For instance, 1 head and 2 tails result in a Yang line which is unbroken ____.
2 heads and 1 tail and you get a Yin line __ __ (broken line).

If you throw down your coins 3 times you can end up with a possible 8 different
trigrams. This are the basic building blocks of the I Ching. However, in the I Ching you
must throw your coins 6 times until you have two trigrams. Any two trigrams
combined can result in 64 different hexagrams. It is these 64 different hexagrams each
with a different message which makes up the ‘Book of Changes’
