2012 is believed by many to be the year marking the shift of the Ages - specifically, leaving the Age of Pisces behind and touching off the Age of Aquarius. As the song goes, some believe there will be "sympathy and understanding, brotherhood and peace abounding." Others believe that 2012 will bring natural disasters and chaos of all types, marking the end of the world as we know it. So, should you worry? No.
Chances are that neither of these extremes will occur. However, 2012 will bring major changes in human consciousness. On January 1, Venus, planet of love, and Neptune, planet of humanity, will be passing through Aquarius - and this could bring a new cycle full of hope, peace, and visions for the future. Natives of each of the Four Elements - Fire, Earth, Air, and Water - will have a different experience as the year unfolds and planets transit.
