The '''Harmonic Convergence''' was the world's first synchronized global peace meditation, coinciding with an exceptional alignment of [[Solar System]] planets on August 16–17, 1987. The event was organized by spouses [[José Argüelles]] and Lloydine Burris Argüelles, via the Planet Art Network (PAN), a [[peace movement]] they founded in 1983. Timing of the Harmonic Convergence allegedly marked a significant celestial alignment of the Sun, Moon, and six planets as "part of the [[grand trine]]."<ref>{{cite web |last1=Argüelles |first1=José |title=From Art as Everyday Life to Planet Art Spore |url=http://www.earthascending.com:80/maya/Y-Art_Spore.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010421093143/http://www.earthascending.com/maya/Y-Art_Spore.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=21 April 2001 |website=EarthAscending.com |publisher=Planet Art Network |access-date=5 September 2019 }}</ref><ref>{{cite journal|last1=Smoley|first1=Richard|date=Fall 1998|title=The Crisis of the Calendar.
