MWM: I think this is your essential question. First, I do NOT follow speculations about Planet X and 2012. The material is far too speculative to involve my serious side. I find nothing compelling in the date 2012 nor in Sitchin's remarkable science fiction fantasy. Entertaining yes, of practical import, no. Second, if a serious interloper came into our solar system at an angle titled against the plane of the Sun's equator and it came into close enough proximity to overshadow some portion of the Sun's gravity influence on the Earth, the Earth's wobble (in the spin axis rotation) would definitely be affected, ranging from a tiny bit to a whole lot, depending upon a lot of variables, including size or mag. of mass, vector angle, distance, speed of passage, and timing in the Earth's orbit and wobble cycle.
The wobble was at rest moment at the end of 2005 and during January 2006. The wobble is a 14 month spiral cycle with a seven year variation which is created by the mutual influence of the Moon and Sun. The wobble is a spiraling motion of the spin axis which varies in size over a seven year period from generally about 3 meters to 18 meters and once in a while it stops for a month or so at its smallest size and recalibrates....mathematically this looks like a cartoid point (disappearing end of a spiral).
The average location of the spin axis (the average "center" of the wobble) drifts relative to the ground. This rate of drift is NOT a constant and it appears to be accelerating very slowly at the current time, beginning roughly in 1912, with a small but significant shift in 1935, another acceleration in the late 1950's, from which time Global Warming began its advent in parallel with an increase in volcanism, quakes, and the warming of the world ocean.
Actually, this is tricky, the spin axis does not wobble much at all. It is the entire crust of the Earth which wobbles, which changes the average location of the spin axis in the Arctic. Ceaselessly, the crust of the Earth flows over and around the North Pole in a 14 month spiral motion. It is this actual mechanical motion of the Earth's crust which generates the motion in the tectonic plates and sets up tremendous stress in the crust. The orbiting of the Moon "triggers" the release of the stress in the form of quakes and volcanoes by pulling up on the crust as it passes overhead.
There is MUCH evidence in geology and archeology of many shifts in the location of the spin axis which happen rapidly. The evidence points to small shifts which might be discussed as one degree or less shifts. The evidence also points to large shifts in the range of 27 degrees. Most likely the best way to interpret the last so-called ice age is that the location of the pole shifted. Apparently this process began about 18,000 ago with a series of small shifts every one to two thousand years or so, culminating 12,500 years ago with a nearly 30 degree shift of the pole from Hudson Bay to the central Arctic.
Based on commentary of Edgar Cayce, which has a very high degree of accuracy, another cycle in a relatively rapid shifting of the poles has begun (from 1935) with acceleration in 1998 and 2001. We are in a long ponderous drawn out process of acceleration. A mass the size of the Earth does not shift its spin axis location at the drop of a dime. How long this process will continue is unclear. Highly destructive tectonic change will build in seven year wobble cycle "waves". We have a wobble wave which will peak in 2009/2010. The most potent stress on the Earth will come when the wobble wave coincides with the Moon's 18 year Eclipse cycle - I believe that the mid 2020's look most potent for profound change. There could be several major destructive waves of tectonic rifting until then, all serving as precurors which break up the crust in the equatorial zones to enable the entire crust to flow as a unit over the equator.
Cayce's comments point to a large shift. It will probably take a shift of at least ten degrees to produce the impacts he described. If we go by the average large pole shift (which has been rigorouly analyzed), we can expect something in the range of about 27 degrees. This will radically transform the planet and reduce most populations of people and animals to wandering refugees. If you are not prepared for it, your odds of survival are not good.
Correlation with the Solar Cycle is NOT indicated by evidence which I have seen to date but I must say that I believe that a massive X class storm in the solar wind is most likely the final straw in the shifting of the poles. The drag of the magnetic solar wind can actually break the speed of rotation of the Earth, which is no mean feat. It is external drag which causes a balanced spinning top to wobble and fall over.....
