The ancient Maya were master astronomers, mathematicians as well as master time keepers!. Those things which they predicted and their time has come to pass (black holes, eclipses, etc!.) have been surprisingly right on!. They supposedly received their insights from an even earlier civilization (The Olmecs)!. As for their 2012 predictions, we'll just all have to wait and see what happens!. Here is a peek at the Mayan Calendars and their prophecies!.

The following cycles are most relevant to what may occur in 2012!. There is the 25,625 year "Galactic Day" and the 5,125 year "Long Count"(Great Cycle)!. Both of these are set to end and restart on the Winter Solstice of 2012 (11:00 UST Dec!. 21, 2012): That is unless the 2012 Mayan Prophecy comes true, I'll get back to that later!.

Let's start with the "Galactic Day"!. As we travel around the Milky Way galaxy, it is my understanding that we do not remain at a constant distance nor at the same orientation in relation to the black hole at its center; a black hole the Maya refer to as the supreme creator, "HUNAB KU"!. Instead, we move in and away from this black hole!. As we move in we simultaneously align to the Milky Way's equator or "The Tree of Life" as the Maya call it!. In the years that we are furthest away, we become dense low vibrating energy and experience our dark spiritual years: These years are part of the "Galactic Night"!. In the years that we move closer, we become higher vibrating energy and spiritually enlightened beings: These years pertain to the "Galactic Day"!. We are currently in transition from Night to Day!. The complete cycle takes 25,625 years; approximately the same as what modern science has calculated and named "The Precession Of The Equinox Cycle"!.

The "Long Count" evenly divides the "Galactic Day" into five equal parts (25,625 years / 5 = 5,125 years)!. It is my understanding that this cycle also coincides with a natural rhythmic beat that is derived from the black hole at the center of the galaxy in the form of an energy pulse!. This energy pulse presumably has multiple effects on us and our surroundings!. It not only helps us to become enlightened beings for twenty years, but reeks havoc on Earth by creating larger solar flares which can bring famine, increased earthquakes and volcanic activity, tsunamis, and sometimes even a pole shift!. Twenty years prior to this event, in a period the Maya refer to as "The Time of No-Time", mild energy spurts, from "HUNAB KU", create a shift in consciousness; from left-brain thinking to right-brain thinking (from logical to intuitive)!. This shift can be experienced all at once or gradually at first moving exponentially as we approach the end of the cycle!.

There is one last Mayan calendar I could share with you called "The Nine Underworlds"!. It is one of the more recently rediscovered calendars and may be the most important one, in so far as the 2012 prophecy is concerned!. It is a calendar that has recorded the state of consciousness from the beginning of time (The Big Bang) to Dec!. 21, 2012!. At which time, we will have supposedly consciously evolved to completeness to become co-creators with "HUNAB-KU": It maps out "creation" if you will!. No one knows for sure what to expect since it is the first time anyone will have experienced this since the beginning of time!. It is much too involved for me to go into, but I found a video that covers it pretty well; albeit kind of long!.

Check this site out!. The Mayan calendar is far better than ours!. It also predicted the invasion of the Spain!. It ends on Dec!. 21, 2012Www@QuestionHome@Com

The 12/21/2012 prediction is based on the Maya Long Count calendar, which was a 260 day cycle not correlated to the solar year (they also had a calendar which counted 365 days in a year, which was indeed superior to the Julian calendar in use when Europeans made contact with the Maya)!. The Maya maintained several calendars, including a Venus calendar (correlated to the appearance of the planet Venus as a morning or evening star) and a lunar calendar; they also probably used a shorter cycle of 9 or 13 days correlated to various minor gods (like our days of the week)!.

The "end" of the Long Count as far as I can tell comes from the way the notations were recorded!. The Long Count has 20 day names and 13 numbers (hence 260 days), and it keeps going!. In general the notations contain only the first five coeffecients, meaning that it numbers about 5,125 solar years!. Since the beginning of this calendar has been dated at August 11, 3114 BCE, when you follow the count it ends at December 12, 2012!. But, if you added the sixth coefficient, the calendar would keep going!.

The person who came up with the end of the world prediction was Jose Arguelles, who also came up with the "Harmonic Convergence" event!. He trained as an art historian!.

Predictions of the end of the world are nothing new!. If you are feeling nervous, read some of these!. The first link in particular is well worth reading, although it hasn't been updated since about 2003!.
