According to Abraham, it is a shift of weight and balance.  The earth is
attempting to "right" itself.  I don't know what it is exactly that is out of
balance.

I have pondered in my own head that it might be one or more of these wobbles
that the earth will be trying to eliminate.  I base that on Abraham's claim
that the earth has been wanting to make this shift for a long time.  We take
the wobbles as normal, but maybe they aren't, if one considered the entire
history of the earth.

According to Abraham, this *is* a normal shift, that has occurred many times --
with greater severity -- in the earth's history.  As far as what "causes" it, I
don't know and neither does Abraham.  They say they recognize the signs (don't
know what those are), but don't know what will be the final catalyst.  Perhaps
they know what some of the *potential* ones would be.  If we knew the cause,
wouldn't we then ask what causes that?  What causes the shifts we know about?

I hope it isn't :).  Since I don't know what kind of needle you mean, I don't
know.  When you say "balanced", is it the kind of thing where it would move
with the earth if the earth moved, or does this needle measure the tilt of the 
earth?  According to Abraham, I believe it is the change in tilt that will be
difficult (not impossible) to measure.  However, a shift of that little on a
sphere this size can cause a heck of a ripple effect.

I received permission to distribute Abraham's chapter of predictions on the
earth changes to a small number of people on another mailing list.  If it is
useful, I could ask for permission to post it to the group.

It is interesting to discuss the plausibilty of this event, though I suspect
that by the time we prove that it is going to happen, or even could, the event
will have come and gone :).  

I was hoping to find some folks on here who have accepted the event in some
form, and are making plans to get happily through it.  Perhaps I over-estimated
the numbers of those who are doing so.  Have I?

BTW, the suggestions that came from several posters to go within are good and
valid.  However, I am also open to action and preparation.  My desire to
discuss these things really came from that going within.
