Picture the earth as a top that spins on its axis; reliant on how much weight is distributed at its poles. Now picture that weight decreasing and redistributing as the polar ice caps melt. What happens to a top as it leans and slows? — it wobbles. Since the 1980s, because of less polar weight, the earth has shifted 13 feet on its axis, explaining some of the weather changes and disturbances we’ve experienced. So what? Life goes on, right? Yes and no.
I’m not a scientist, but I do believe that the many similarities mentioned in religious and cultural texts re: when, how and why our planet and its inhabitants change are connected. Let’s take the great flood as an example. The tales of an earth underwater appears often in ancient texts, including the bible. Many cultures have emergence stories that describe entire populations living underground, eventually re-surfacing to begin anew.
Today, humankind is once again on the move. Physical challenges, such as the current pandemic, lack of or too much water, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and a myriad of other challenges and disasters have spurred populations to once again, look to new horizons. How we accept and deal with these disruptions is paramount to our spiritual and material development. Lately the news shows that we haven’t evolved much since the last (to use a Hindu reference) Kali Yuga when humankind found itself immersed in similar chaotic situations. Can we do better? Time will tell.
