So what are the potentials? Are we about to see a merger of the Mayan 25526 year cycle with a 26511 year cycle, a crossover of 144 cycles and 149 cycles, a collision of the abundant with the prime?
Certainly we can expect a peak in the sunspot cycle, geothermal upheaval, climate change, sea levels rising and disturbances to Earth's geomagnetic status. All of these events are already noted as currently occurring. What we don't know is the extent. Throughout the Solar system planetary changes are being noted, including a doubling of Jupiter's magnetosphere. (See link below)

The above picture is of Mt Augustine in Alaska which is currently showing signs of activity. It erupted October 6th 1883, this is a contemporary description from the Alaska Volcano Observatory site (
http://www.avo.alaska.edu/index.php):
"At about twenty-five minutes past eight A.M., or twenty-five minutes after the great eruption, a great 'earthquake wave,' estimated as from twenty-five to thirty feet high, came upon Port Graham like a wall of water. It carried off all the fishing-boats from the point, and deluged the houses. This was followed, at intervals of about five minutes, by two other large waves, estimated at eighteen and fifteen feet; and during the day several large and irregular waves came into the harbor. The first wave took all the boats into the harbor, the receding wave swept them back again to the inlet, and they were finally stranded. Fortunately it was low water, or all of the people at the settlement must inevitably have been lost. The tides rise and fall about fourteen feet"
On 27th August 1883 Krakatoa erupted off Java and Sumatra. The 1883 eruption ejected more than 25 cubic kilometres of rock, ash, and pumice, and made the loudest sound ever historically recorded by man it also killed 35,000 people with the tsunami it generated and and falling ash.
What links these events to Venus? Transits of Venus are the rare astronomical phenomena and currently occur in a pattern that repeats every 243 years, with pairs of transits eight years apart separated by long gaps of 121.5 years and 105.5 years. Before 2004, the last pair of transits of Venus were in December 1874 and December 1882. So nine months after Venus transited the sun, a direct conjunction of course, Krakatoa explodes and three months later so does Mt Augustine.
The first of a pair of transits of Venus this century took place on June 8, 2004, six months later on December 26th 2004 and the Sumatran undersea quake took place followed by a tsunami killing 230,000 people. Seven months later, in July 2005, St Augustine began its current eruption. The next in this pair of transits will be on June 6, 2012, it's that year again, any bets that St Augustine is preparing to stage a rerun of 1883? And is Mt Merapi on Java about to become the next Krakatoa?
