Boopsie: B.D., no one really knows what will happen during the harmonic convergence, but there are supposed to be two strong possibilities. The first is a new age of insight and understanding, a mass unification of divine and earth-plane selves! The other possibility is nuclear annihilation. Either way, there will probably be a crafts fair. B.D.: Bring on the nukes.

This was my all-time favourite strip! At least there WAS a crafts fair. A friend visited to go to Sedona for it; we walked outside at night and I pointed out Jupiter. “That’s JUPITER?” She had been running her life on astrology for many years, but never even seen the planets.

New Agers, especially American ones, tend to have an atrophied sense of the ridiculous. One of the best things I’ve ever seen was a documentary about two New Age American sex therapists who were trying to get their patients to feel more relaxed about sex by they, the therapists, wearing large multicoloured felt hats in the form of human genitalia, and then mating their hats by banging their foreheads together.

And another possibility is nothing obvious. or just nothing.As long as we have those weapons nuclear annihilation is still possible if not probably.

“Consequently, it now appears that the current alignment of at least 5 planets (which officially began on January 20, 2016) is in fact the commencement of the esoteric prophecy known as Harmonic Convergence which will bring about the long-awaited Age of Aquarius (i.e., the Golden Age).
Harmonic Convergence will reportedly correspond with a “great shift in the earth’s energy from warlike to peaceful” and usher in a 5-year period of Earth’s “cleansing” whereby many of the planet’s “false structures of separation” (e.g., banking, government, religion, etc.) will simultaneously collapse, forever.
The notion that “false structures of separation” are about to collapse is corroborated by the fact that CIA Headquarters beneath Lake Geneva in Switzerland has now been exposed for the first time in history. Consequently, Harmonic Convergence or not, the CIA which controls these false structures is doomed."
I didn’t even know the CIA had headquarters below Lake Geneva … see what you can learn on the internet?

Hey, it may be a bit too much “crunchy granola” for some of you old coots, but I say anything that helps one get through the descending spiral of chaos called life without going barking mad is welcome in my book.
