Do you mean you think pole shift will occur, but that it is unknown when...and thus not necessarily connected to 2012?

Personally, I do believe in the Mayan End Date. Mostly because of my dreams and messages over time that I received about it (without knowing of Mayan End Date beforehand). Recently, in my mind I see a "poof" occurring and I see my spirit as if puffed from the earth and floating contentedly outside in space. Just a symbolization I think. Not that all visions pan out. But I do really trust that something big will happen. Doesn't mean it will be painful or bad. And the pole shift idea resonates with me as well.

Everything renews eventually and the earth has such a history of changes, plate shifts, and buried civilizations as if there have been many iterations on earth. Not just the ones in the history books, but ones dating millions of years.
