Sorry Progunr - too much hokum, not enough science. Citing astrologers like Sergey Smelyakov doesn't add any credence. Nor does citing Nostradamus. Some specifc problems with your post:

Source please? There are predictions that the next maximum of solare activity may produce more than the usual number of susnpots, and hence a higher level of solar activity compared to the last maximum. However, there are disagrements as to whether that will occur in 2011 or 2012. I see no one of any repute specifically claiming to predict what the sloar activitry will be like precisely oinb Dec 21, 2012. See:

The next transit of Venus across the Sun will take place on June 6, 2012, not Dec 21. The last transit did indeed occur in 2004. However, the 8-year interval between transits is not at all unusual - the typical pattern is for Venus to transit twice in an 8-year period followed by a hundred years or so before the next pair of transits. Thus the last 6 transits prior to the 2004 event were in the years 1631, 1639, 1761, 1769, 1874, and 1882. See:

Actually, the great galactic alignment started in 1998, so if something is going to occur it seems we already missed it. It will reach its midpoint in 2016, not 2012, and will be complete in 2034. So in the end there is no science at all to accompany predictions of what may occur on Dec 21, 2012.
