cataclysmic situations they encounter include tornadoes (hunker down), hurricanes (escape and stock up), droughts or
shortages (stock up). The pole shift will present survivors with long term needs, not anticipated.
We advise thinking about Third World conditions and adaptations, or live 100 years ago for those living in
highly industrialized nations. This give the picture of continuing struggle. You don't plant seed to grow for this
season, you save 10% for seed stock next year. You don't eat your livestock altogether, when hungry, you save
your best pairs and breed for the future, going hungry now if need be! You think of the minimum that you will
need, not the optimal and how to arrange for it. When you've got the minimum, start adding to that, but only
when the minimum is addressed. This is where humans fail the most in planning for the shift, and life
afterwards. They think of their life now, and come down from that. They should start with life with nothing, but
bugs and sucking dirty water up from the ground with their hands. No clothes. No heat. Nothing. Then add what
is needed most, and first. Heat, shelter, then food, bugs if need be or weeds, then how to clean your food so you
can stop that tummy ache and constant pooping, then how to grow or gather food more effectively. Start from
that, adding what is needed to clean water and eat food nature will provide, live bugs aplenty, and go from there,
and you will have a better plan.
Humans wishing to survive the starvation and disease that will be rampant after the shift should consider first
their general state of health. Those who are in good health, exercise and have most importantly a good attitude,
will be in the best position to survive. As many doctors and caretakers will report, the will to live is prime for
survival. Patients expected not to see the morrow live and recover, while those without serious injury or disease
succumb! It is time for the populace planning to survive to lift their eyes to the future, past the shift, to the years
afterwards. This is not without hope, not without excitement, and seeing beyond a travail helps to survive it.
Eating well, of natural foods that you will perforce be required to consume in the Aftertime, will acclimate your
body to what is to come. Being in good shape, with exercise, will prevent fatigue from becoming a
discouragement.
Becoming overweight to store food is counter productive if the general health is adversely affected. The body
has capabilities most in civilized countries do not realize, as during starvation use of nutrients is altered
accordingly. The body becomes weak, energy lagging, but the ability to survive a long spell is increased. An
attitude of hope, expectation that things will get better, and a sense of excitement about what might be around
the corner will do more for survival than layers of fat. Consider that a plump person will run slowly, be easily
caught, and would be considered a good meal by some groups looking to cannibalize. Consider also that
overweight individuals would also be subject to being left behind by a group on the move, or to be a good meal
by hungry dog packs or wolves. Can they carry their pack? Are they resented for the food they have gorged
themselves with before hand? There are many factors to be considered.

ZetaTalk: Most Terrible Day
Note: written on Jul 15, 1996.
The day of a significant pole shift, such as will occur on this next passage of the 12th Planet, is one no human on Earth
will be able to ignore. For most, it will be a most terrible day.
Those who have had no forewarning will be no worse off then those who have heard rumors but been unable to
make changes in their life to prepare. In fact, having no forewarning will almost be a blessing for those unable to
prepare, as in this way they will not agonize over choices made. Those who have prepared will be in a state of
high anxiety, imagining the worst. Regardless of whether a human realizes what is about to happen but has been
unable to take themselves to safety, or has no realization, the effect is the same. They wait for what is to come
next. As we have described, this waiting can take the form of distractions such as parties or denial such as
continuing with the daily routine as though everything were normal, but for most this waiting is a type of breath
holding. They are in shock, from the time they realize that the Earth has stopped rotating until the pole shift, they
are essentially in shock, for days.
For those along coast lines, the hour when the Earth's crust moves along with the core to its new position is not
the time of trauma until the Earth's core and crust stop. It is then that massive tidal waves roll slowly up into the
coastal areas, first on one side of a body of water and then, later when the water sloshes back, on the other side.
Both tides are equally as devastating. Being on high ground along a coast line is no safety factor if the water has
nowhere to go, as the press of water behind the wave head will force the water up when meeting a barrier, so
one is flooded anyway. Riding the wave results in being dashed against barriers, and allowing the wave to engulf
one is a certain drowning, fortunately a painless death. Thus, those along the coast lines die from tidal waves,
almost invariably, if they are not dead already.
For those inland beyond the reach of tidal waves, the earthquakes are devastating. All but the flimsiest of
housing is wrenched so violently that it collapses, crushing and trapping those inside. Those inside tents or straw
huts will find themselves, along with their housing, jerked sideways, but aside from scrapes and bruises,
relatively unharmed. Lying on the ground during this time is in and of itself a protection, as friction along the
ground prevents one from being hurled. In the cities, structures collapse, creating the scenario seen after major
earthquakes in the extreme, everywhere. The injured die from lack of treatment and the living soon sicken from
drinking sewage contaminated water, and with transportation blocked on all sides, starvation soon takes its toll
also.

Those living on subducting plates that border the oceans will find themselves covered with a depth of ocean
water that they cannot resist. They will surely drown. Those situated where rapid subduction occurs on areas
above sea level may themselves on hot earth during the moments following a pole shift when the crust stops
moving and the plates in essence slam into each other like a train whose engine suddenly comes to a stop. Here
height helps, as the greater the distance from where friction between the crusts is creating heat, the better. The
