Our Binary Star

[ICycle]

The Great Year:

The Great Year is a 24 000 year cycle and the period it takes the equinoxes to complete one full cycle around the ecliptic (through the zodiac) while we spin around our binary star.  Due to our current position while ascending it is calculated that the cycle will be 25,770 years.  However proper corrective calculations prove it to be 24 000 years taking in account the slowdown in descending and speedup in ascending periods.
We reached the furthest point apart in 499AD and are now about 1500 years into the ascending phase.

The high point, of the next golden age, will occur at periapsis when the Sun and its companion are closest to each other. This last occurred in 11,500 BC and will next occur in 12,500 AD.
We are therefore 12 000 years away for this cycle to influence us.

I think you have asending and descending nodes backwards.

Asending is going away from the object being orbited around and therefore slowing down. Descending is getting closer to the object therefore speeding up.

It's 25,920. 

Additionally, I do believe we are in a binary system. However, scientists have not identified our sister star. Do you know what it is?

descending
adjective

1. Of or pertaining to descent; moving downwards.
   
2. Those through which the planets descent toward the south.
   
3. That point in a planet's orbit where it intersects the ecliptic in passing southward.

According to Walter Cruttenden (Binary Research Institute) it is the Bernard star

Errrrm...do you mean Barnard's Star, which is over 5.5 light years away?

Found some information on Earth's peoiodic orbital changes.

And yes, I think Barnard's star is way too far away.

It would have to be a red or black dworf star to not be easily noticed.

I think those are the astrological definitions and not the scientific orbital dynamics ones.
