There is much talk of the end of the world in 2012. I have received many questions about what is happening in the Universe and our planet. There is much talk the Mayan calendar predicts the end of the world.
This myth is simply not true.
The truth is, and many archaeologists agree… The Mayan calendar doesn’t end in 2012, as some have said, and the ancients never viewed that year as the time of the end of the world.
But December 21, 2012, (give or take a day) was nonetheless momentous to the Mayan People.
It’s the time when the largest grand cycle in the Mayan calendar—1,872,000 days or 5,125.37 years—overturns and a new cycle begins.
During the empire’s heyday, the Maya invented the Long Count, a lengthy circular calendar that transplanted the roots of Maya culture all the way back to creation itself.
During the 2012 winter solstice, time runs out on the current era of the Long Count calendar, which began on what the Maya saw as the dawn of the last creation period: August 11, 3114 B.C. The Maya called that date, which preceded their civilization by thousands of years, Day Zero, or 13.0.0.0.0.
On December 21, 2012 the lengthy era ends, and the complicated, cyclical calendar will roll over again to Day Zero, beginning another enormous cycle. The idea is that time gets renewed, that the world gets renewed all over again.
This Mayan cycle of renewal is similar to the Ghedee 10,000 year energetic life cycle.
