Destruction or Revelation
You probably already know. There is much talk about the world ending December 21, 2012. Pop culture has focused on the Mayan calendar. It ends December 21, 2012. Why do so to join the day as the end of the world? Is it intuitive human mass, a knowingness subconscious? Is it clever marketing? More bluntly, is the prophecy of the Mayan calendar, a hoax or reality? Mayan calendars Did you know there were many Mayan calendar? The Maya were an agricultural people. Their world revolves around the seasons and celestial bodies that have governed these seasons. They had a solar calendar and lunar calendar. They had a calendar that has recorded the celestial journey of Venus and various other schedules associated with their many gods. Why the Mayan prophesy the end of the world? Maybe they did not. Nobody can say that the Mayans intentionally made any such prophecy. Maybe their intention was simply to create calendars, calendars to mark and record their history and to meet their agricultural needs. Three Calendars three most publicized schedules were Mayan Tzolkin, the Haab, and long calendar. According to some calculations, the Mayan calendar is said to be more accurate than our modern Gregorian calendar! The Tzolkin calendar was the calendar or sacred ceremonial. It consisted of 13 numbered days and 20 names. He recorded a cycle of 260 days. The Haab calendar was a solar calendar. It consists of 18 months of 20 days each, plus one month of 5 “nameless” days to the cycle. This is a calendar of 365 days. The Tzolkin and Haab combine to create the calendar cycle, which represents a cycle of 52 years. The long calendar was a calendar of events. That is to say a calendar to count the years. It was a calendar of events, much like our modern Gregorian and Julian calendars. The Maya used it to move forward and backward in time. It is still used today in some modern-day Mayan villages. The schedule covers a long period of about 5125 years. End the mystery and I am sure you are well aware that all schedules end at some point. Our Gregorian calendar end of each year, at midnight December 31 and all again the next day. Our calendars recording a cycle of 365 days. We have a 10 year cycle that we call a decade, a series of one hundred years that we call a century. The Maya were the same. The long calendar ends December 21, 2012, and a new cycle begins. What makes this particular day so mysterious and threatening? It is interesting and important to note that there are a number of things that coincide with this particular date. The prophecy of Hindus at the end of the world as we know it, and the beginning of a new world at about the same time. St. Malachi, the prophet predicted the last Roman Catholic pope to be the Benedictine order. The current pope is Benedict XVI. One I Ching scholar correlation that teaching to show an end of our world around the same date. Scientists identify this year as a year of intense solar activity that could have disastrous consequences for our world. That day our sun, earth, and the center of the Milky Way galaxy will be in alignment. December 21, 2012 is the winter solstice. Mayan scholars have translated inscriptions which imply the end. Some researchers interpret the markings to signify the end of the world. These facts imply the end of the world? Only you can make this decision. This short article does little justice to this subject. You owe it to yourself to learn. Regardless of the validity of prophecy, we must always keep an open mind and be prepared for any calamity. Judge for yourself. Is 2012 hoax or reality? Prepare for possibilities. Why not be prepared and be armed with knowledge?
