2012 will be a very interesting year. The United States will have a Presidential election. Across the world, elections will also be held in France, Mexico, and Ireland. The Freedom Tower will be completed in New York. The Summer Olympic games will be held in London, England. NASA’s new Orion spacecraft is scheduled for completion and will begin to support missions to the International Space Station.

However, for many people, the most anticipated and promoted event in 2012 will be the end of the world as we know it. Indeed, the end of the world crowd from Y2K is coming back. Since everyone survived the start of this millennium without incident, they have now recalibrated their end of time apocalypse clocks to a new date of 12/21/2012. This new apocalypse date coincides with the end of the ancient Mayan long count calendar. The Mayan calendar, which spans more than 5,000 years, comes to an end on December 21, 2012.

The significance of the end of the Mayan calendar has been the subject of an increasing number of books in the last several months. It has even been featured on several programs on the History Channel as well. In general, there is a difference of opinion on what happens on 12/21/2012. Some think it is a day for the destruction of the planet Earth and human life. Others believe that we are in for an unprecedented spiritual awakening. Some predict a global financial meltdown. To others, an asteroid is the harbinger of doom. New sites appear almost daily on the Internet to promote all these unfortunate outcomes to the world.

In addition, new books on the subject arrive every month at local bookstores. Journalist Lawrence Joseph forecasts widespread catastrophe in “Apocalypse 2012: A Scientific Investigation Into Civilization’s End”. Spiritual healer Andrew Smith predicts a restoration of a “true balance between Divine Feminine and Masculine” in “The Revolution of 2012: Vol. 1, The Preparation”. In 2012, Daniel Pinchbeck anticipates a “change in the nature of consciousness,” assisted by indigenous insights and psychedelic drug use. His book,”2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl” has a print run designed to sell more than 40,000 copies.

The end of the Mayan calendar is said to coincide with a galactic alignment in which the Sun will align with the center of the Milky Way galaxy. It is said that this rare event occurs once every 26,000 years and some predict it could have potentially catastrophic consequences. The theory goes that on the day of the winter solstice in 2012, the Sun will be aligned with the center of the Milky Way . This alignment could mean that energy which typically streams to Earth from the center of the Milky Way will be disrupted on 12/21/12 at 11:11 p.m. Universal Time.

Some people argue that this disruption has the potential to create a shift in the Earth’s poles, which would cause disastrous environmental events. There is also the possibility that the effects will alter the magnetic polarity of the Sun. In combination with gravitational forces from the simultaneous alignment of other planets, this result might cause massive solar flares, and could even move the axis of the Earth.

It all sounds really bad, doesn’t it? It’s meant to. Of course it is all hype and nonsense. The ancient Mayan calendar ends but resets and starts over. The truth is that Mayans gave up their original calendar hundreds of years ago and use modern calendars now. The Mayans discovered that modern calendars were better able to keep track of their annual holidays.

In fact the Mayan calendar is not used by anyone today and is irrelevant. There is no factual relationship to the end of the Mayan calendar and the end of time. The Sun does not approach the center of the Milky Way to closer than about 5 degrees, and that happens not on 21 December but around 18 December, and not just in 2012 but in every year.

All the stories, science, and prophesies are fiction to hype the date. The hype of the date provides publicity to peddle books, merchandise, survival gear, and television programs. The History Channel appears so desperate for viewers and ratings that it has started its end of the Mayan calendar hype nearly five years in advance. We have seen this already in the years leading up to the start of this millennium. Now we can expect it again in the next few years leading up to 12/21/2012.

The formula of the end of the world doomsday prophecy is always the same. It originates from ancient times. Its basis surrounds a certain date or time period in the future. There is always some special insight beyond advanced modern science about how things really work. There are historically vague embellished coincidences that lead people to believe there is a solid basis for these future doomsday prognostications. It is all designed to play on our fear. The facts are created using smoke and mirrors. Like any scam, the real intention is to separate us from the dollars in our wallets.

Of course, the reality is that the there should be one basic goal for all of us in the next few years. That goal is to survive the huckster’s hype of a world apocalypse due to the end of the Mayan calendar on December 21, 2012. Indeed, the apocalypse crowd from the turn of this century is coming back with a brand new date to hype. We can send them away by keeping our money out of their sight.

Mayan Calendar And December 2012, Whats The Deal?

Does the Mayan Calendar suggest an “end of times?”

Well, yes and no …

Lord knows as this date approaches there will be the “end of the world” preachers and cults springing up all around the world. The media will surely get behind that with both feet running. Seems our
society will do this with a passing comet or millennium change or even a new eclipse.

What we do know … The Mayan Calendar does not foretell the end of the world perse’. However it does foretell a negative prophecy in 2012, and an “end of times”, which the earth has seen several times as we know; civilizations have fallen, disease and plauges have changed nations. “Times” so to speak have always died out to be replaced with newer times.

Does that mean we are out of the woods completely? Well not exactly, and here is why. The mayan calendar points to a time in the near future where something dramatic will happend to end the “times”. What do we know about that could possibly be this transforming experience? An experience so dramatic that it could change the way we live on the earth? Solar flares- that exceed the size and duration of any in recorded history. This is not just simply a guess, or prophesy of any kind.

Our sun has a solar cycle of 11 years at which time it produces sun spots. It is believed this happens due to a relationship between the sun and Jupiter. Both the sun and Jupiter (the largest planet in our solar system) actually wobble in their positions. We believe the Sun remains still but it actually wobbles millions of miles due to the gravitational relationship between its self and Jupiter. This sort of shakes the mass of the sun which in turn causes solar flairs at the time of the sun spots every 11 years.

In 2012 this wobbling well be directly on its cycle to produce these solar flairs. Thats not all …

Our solar system (Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto) are like a disk of sorts as we all know. Well this tiny disk compared to the galaxy is usually just above the flat edge of the larger disk that is the Milky way. Our solar system orbits in the Milky way as due the
planets around the sun. In 2012, our disk will be moving from the top of the Milky way disk and into the center. Picture a round pizza (Milky way) and we are one pepperoni. We
1000
usually sit on the top just like the pepperoni. However in 2012 the pepperoni will move inside the crust of the pizza. Our solar
system will move into the center of the Milky way as it does every 21,000 years. At this time our solar system will be in complete alignment with all the gravitational forces of the Milky way on one horizontal plane. This will exert tremendous forces on our solar system. This will coincide with the normal 11 year cycle of the sun and its solar flares. Furthermore, the sun’s magnetic polar axis is due to shift again in 2012 on its normal cycle.

The facts are in and the truth is in 2012 we will be in danger of extreme solar flare activity that could potentially knock out all electrical systems on earth. It just depends on how strong these flares will be, something that no one really knows at this time.

Its kind of like living near a swollen river. You know there is a large storm coming but you don’t know how large the storm will be. You know you will be in danger of flooding to some extent, but you just don’t know how much yet. Honestly, this is the situation that we will face in 2012, maybe even sooner.

I try to keep in mind that every since I was a small kid, someone somewhere has foretold of the “end times”. I personally don’t believe in that sort of mythology. But the truth is the planet has taken extreme abuses in history be that of asteroids or ice ages that are just a part of living in the physical world; as are solar flares.

A small solar flare in March of 1989 destroyed some power grids in North America. This solar cycle which begins in 2012 will be at the same time as our solar system moves into the center of the disk of the Milky way. The importance of that is that we will suddenly be susceptible to extreme gravitational forces from the galaxy its self, which will disrupt or aggravate the normal solar flare cycle.

It is certain we will experience disruptive solar flares that will almost certainly knock out some satellites. These flares could be strong enough to shut down power grids on a global scale. We just wont know until the time comes really. This is however something you should be aware of, and take any neccessary precautions to be able to live without power for days to weeks. Power is something we take for granted, but what would you do if it were simply gone for weeks at a time?
