The Venus Transit of 2004
The sight of
Venus on the Sun
is by far the noblest that astronomy can afford.
Edmund Halley (the discoverer of Halley's comet), 1691
When the planet
Venus passes
across the disc of the sun, this is called a
Venus Transit. The
next time this will happen is on
June 8, 2004.
This is a very rare event indeed. The last time it happened was in 1882
and so no person alive today has previously experienced it. The aim of
the
Venus Transit
into Oneness project is to gather the largest number ever of human
beings in a meditation in peace at the upcoming occasion. As the planet
Venus - rich in
symbolic meaning in cultures all the world - passes across the disc of
the sun in the
Venus Transit of
June 8, 2004, a
meditation led by respected spiritual leaders from the four corners of
the world, will give rise to a deep experience of Oneness: We are all
One.
A
Venus Transit was
once the reason for the world's first international collaboration in
science. The upcoming
Venus Transit, on
June 8, 2004, now
promises to be the starting point for a deeper form of collaboration and
unity including a spiritual dimension. Creating peace on Earth is to a
large extent about sharing the experience of Oneness. The media
broadcast meditation in Stockholm is meant to serve as support for
people gathering in different places across the planet. This will be
prepared for by a concert on Artists' Day (June 6th) and proposals by
political and spiritual leaders how to apply the principle of Oneness to
the challenges of modern man on Council Day (June 7th). Unifying
humanity in such a way, at an occasion scheduled by the Cosmos, will
have a profoundly positive influence on participants. It will also lead
to the revival of spiritual sources that has for a long time been
obscured, such as the
Mayan calendar
and the East Indian teaching of the path towards
Enlightenment,
that will provide knowledge giving hope for mankind. June 6 2004 is an
important turning point in the
Mayan calendar.
Legend has it that the principle of light, Quetzalcoatl, would one day
return to Earth from the planet
Venus…and maybe
the time from this
Venus Transit to
the next, that of June 6,
2012, around the
time of the completion of the
Mayan calendar is
the time available to mankind for the creation of the Golden Age.
Global
enlightenment is
a real possibility for our generation. The Oneness Celebration invites
us all to acknowledge the unity that exists and is available for us to
embrace
Neale Donald Walsch
Global
Enlightenment
through awareness of the
Mayan calendar is
of the greatest importance for world peace and human sustainability. The
hour is upon us when the cycle of history draws to a close, for it is
now only a matter of years until
2012. The ability
we exhibit in harmonically converging for the Oneness Celebration on
June 8, 2004, is
critical if we are to keep our date with destiny and observe it as a
species ready for evolutionary renewal.
