Mayan Calendar
December 21, 2012 C.E.. Will this date lead to the end of human life? Will the Earth move and cause terrible earthquakes, storms, tsunamis, and put certain land masses underwater? Were the people in ancient Mesoamerica correct in their predictions? These are all questions that have been discussed for centuries and will continue to be discussed until the date in question.
The Earth is predicted to shift next at the beginning of the Winter Solstice. Every 5,123 – 5,125 years or so, a perfect alignment of all of the planets within our galaxy occurs. These periods are ended by some catastrophic natural occurrence.

Why 2012? Mayan Calendar Doomsday Prophecy
The Aztec calendar, better known as the Eagle Bowl (shown above), has been used in a variety of forms for more than 2,000 years. It symbolizes the Aztec solar deity Tonatiuh. Based on the Eagle Bowl, a Zapotec prophecy states:
“After Thirteen Heavens of Decreasing Choice, and Nine Hells of Increasing Doom, the Tree of Life shall blossom with a fruit never before known in the creation, and that fruit shall be the New Spirit of Men.”
Each of the Thirteen Heavens and Nine Hells were fifty-two years long (1,144 years total). Each of the Nine Hells were supposed to be even more terrible than the last. August 17, 1987 C.E. was known to the Aztecs as the final day of the last of the Nine Hells. It was predicted that on that day Tezcatlipoca, the Aztec God of Death, would remove his jade mask and reveal himself as Quetzelcoatl, the Aztec God of Peace.
To the Aztecs, animals devoured humans at the end of the first age of mankind. The second age was ended by the winds. The third age was ended by fire. The fourth age was ended by water. Now, our turn. Currently we are living in the fifth age of mankind, named Nahui-Olin (translated to mean “Sun of Earthquake”). This fifth age of mankind began in 3113 B.C.E. and, to the Aztecs, is to end on December 23, 2012 C.E. This date marks the final destruction of human existence on Earth. This date also strangely coincides with the ancient Chinese oracle-calendar, the I Ching. [This will be discussed further in a later blog.]
The Mayan calendar (or the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar) is similar to that of the Aztecs and was used among other pre-Columbian Mesoamericans. According to the Gregorian calendar, the Mayan calendar began on approximately August 11, 3114 B.C.E., at the end of the last cycle of mankind. The Mayans believed each of these cycles or b’ak’tun as different “worlds” and that only certain life forms were able to make the transition from one world to the next. According to the Gregorian calendar, the exact date of the Threshold Level, or the end of the thirteenth b’ak’tun cycle, would be passed on December 21, 2012. There is an incomplete inscription on the Tortuguero Monument 6 that records this date. The Temple of Inscriptions, in Palenque, has this date carved into its walls. The Temple functions as a base date from which other dates are computed.
There are Seven Ages of Man in the Mayan calendar. According to Ehran the Scribe, the canonical dates at the ends of the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth worlds are:
August 12, 3113 B.C.E. – The fall of Atlantis (Fourth “World”)
December 21, 2012 C.E. – The appearance of Ryumyo (Fifth “World”)
April 4, 7137 C.E. (Sixth “World”)
The Maya spent a significant amount of time studying the stars to complete their calendar and, even though the real reason why their calendar lasted until December 21 or 23, 2012 is unclear, it appears that they were heeding us a warning that the end of the Fifth “World” will cause periodic, massive cataclysms. That time will begin a cycle of Earthquakes. It has been predicted by the Mesoamerican peoples that only a few people will survive the catastrophe that is to come. The Mayans predicted that humanity will realize its spiritual destiny in the Fifth “World.” Human beings will realize God within ourselves in the Sixth “World.” And human beings will develop so spiritually that they will become telepathic in the Seventh “World.” These forms of earth religions give off that humans need to reconnect with the Earth, in order to save themselves.
In 2012, the sun will shift, the sun and planets will all align with the center of the Milky Way for the first time in about 26,000 years, the earth will shift, and the most expensive, luxurious hotels in the world were already being booked out ten years in advance for that fateful day. Take advantage and enjoy the last days on Earth, in case you are one of those who are not so lucky to move on to the Sixth “World.”
More to come… The planets’ alignment and what is to occur to the Earth because of the gravitational pull between all our galaxy’s planets. The poles are to move again!
