2012 Earth changes

QUESTION: Masters, according to many sources, including yours, 2012 is supposed to be the year that will bring major changes in life as we know it on Earth. We’re approaching the end of the first quarter of the year and I personally didn’t notice any major change or shift in the way we’re living, nor any of those major natural events or upheavals that were forecasted for this year. Could you please explain what is going on right now on planet Earth? When are the first noticeable and major events supposed to happen? ~Riccardo, Italy

ANSWER: Changes are occurring all over the planet, you have just become used to them since they started a decade ago and are just intensifying. These variations we are referring to are in climate as well as finance and areas of conflict. Take a look at the weather in your country and elsewhere. Unseasonal bouts of heat, cold, wet and dry weather are everywhere.

The financial economy is in a shambles. Governments are going bankrupt, banks are failing, gold and mineral values are going up and down the scale. Oil prices are being used to hold countries hostage. This is more prevalent than it has ever been. There is talk of the European Union feeling some fractures in its structure. More conflicts are ongoing than ever dotted the planet before. High officials who used to consider themselves untouchable are being ousted, arrested, and held accountable for their actions.

On the weather side alone, mysterious booms are being heard from within, on, and under the surface of the Earth as things shift. Tornados and hurricanes are popping up where they have never appeared before. In the United States, the northern areas have experienced temperatures warmer than the southern areas. Unseasonably warm weather in the east has been offset by continued dumping of large quantities of snow on the west. Parts of Europe not known for much snow have been buried this year. New temperature records for high and low readings are springing up in Australia, South America, Europe, and the U.S.

If you are looking for an “event” that will be reported worldwide like a volcano going off, an infestation of locusts, a tsunami washing away a coastline, or an economy bottoming out, just hold on—they are out there.
