Mayan Calendar And The End-Of-The-World Explained

2012 Phenomenon End Of Times

If you are prone to superstition, 2012 provides a wealth of apocalyptic fears and calamitous end-of-day scenarios, starting with the ever-popular end-of-the-world Mayan doomsday.

Some have argued that Mayans, whose civilization spanned across southern Mexico, Guatemala and Belize from 1000 B.C. to 1519 A.D., carved into their calendar the day the world would end—December 21, 2012.

Many scholars have debunked the Mayan doomsday myth but it hasn’t stopped some from treating December as Armageddon month, turning to social media to share elaborate last-minute bucket-list ideas.

Gerardo Aldana, an associate professor at the University of California, who has studied the Mayans since 1995, says the theories of mayhem attributed to the calendar came largely “from a misunderstanding of the calendar and mythology.”

“Priests and historians used the Long Count to track mythology back to 3114 B.C. and even earlier,” Aldana said. “But they only really recorded their history for the time between A.D. 300 and 900. They then extended the calendar far into their and our own future, as far as A.D. 4772,” he added.

Mayan Calendar: Myth Of Doomsday

Aldana, argues the misinterpretation dates back to the 1960s when archeologist Michael D. Coe published “The Maya.” There he suggested the Mayan calendar would end in 2011 or 2012, hinting, in jest, that it meant the end of the world. Scholars have since said there’s no evidence the calendar predicts an apocalyptic future.

The Mayan calendar has long astonished scholars. John Malone, author of Unsolved Mysteries of Science, regards the ancient timekeeper as the “most accurate calendar devised by any ancient culture.”

Simon Martin, co-curator for the “Maya 2012: Lords of Time,” an exhibit at the Penn Museum in Philadelphia that showcases the ancient and modern Mayan culture, said December will bring a changing period in much the same way that the year 2000 marked a new millennium.

“Kings saw themselves as an embodiment of time and it was really a way of how they fixed themselves as being a key part of the universe,” Martin said.

Because there’s no record of the Long Count calendar a few hundred years after The Classic Period that lasted from A.D. 250 to 900, scholars identified December 21, 2012 by parsing though numerous records and carbon dating data, Martin said.

Using other historical records and carbon dating, experts have sought to match the Mayan calendar with the Gregorian calendar.

Some scholars believed that the missing dates in the Long Count calendar might be due to drought and climactic changes, which lead to a drastic drop in population in the Mayan region.

Some modern Mayans have dismissed the Mayan doomsday myth entirely, calling it a “European invention” while others, mostly those who converted to Christianity, ignore the prophecy altogether.

Yet there are those who say it’s a perfect time for renewal, rebirth and transformation. December 21, 2012 is a new beginning, a time when people will start to be more conscious of each other and the environment.

“These are positive changes. They are changes we cannot avoid. When I talk about changes we are talking about all changes, natural, physical and within our own essence,” she said.

Mayan End Age December 21, 2012 Heralds A New Age Of Spiritual Enlightenment

"Both the Hopis and Mayans recognize that we are approaching the end of a World Age... In both cases, however, the Hopi and Mayan elders do not prophesy that everything will come to an end. Rather, this is a time of transition from one World Age into another. The message they give concerns our making a choice of how we enter the future ahead. Our moving through with either resistance or acceptance will determine whether the transition will happen with cataclysmic changes or gradual peace and tranquility. The same theme can be found reflected in the prophecies of many other Native American visionaries from Black Elk to Sun Bear."— Joseph Robert Jochmans

"An Apocalypse (Greek: 'lifting of the veil' or 'revelation') is a disclosure of something hidden from the majority of mankind in an era dominated by falsehood and misconception, i.e. the veil to be lifted."— Wikipedia

Various astronomical alignments and numerological formulae were proposed as pertaining to this date, all unequivocally rejected by mainstream scholarship. A New Age interpretation held that the date marked the start of a period during which Earth and its inhabitants would undergo a positive physical or spiritual transformation, and that December 21, 2012 would mark the beginning of a new era."

Introduction
by Lee Carroll - The Original Channel for KRYON

Kryon’s messages are undoubtedly the most informative of the present time, covering the immediate years ahead. They often focus on the changes that have been taking place since the end of the last Age – 2012, and the many more changes that are to come including the path to Ascension. The messages are clear that we must literally forget what we have been taught prior to 2012, as a new paradigm has commenced, revealing many truths that have not been made known to us before now. It seems quite clear to me that we have what you may call a “one off” opportunity to move off the old path onto the new one, if we wish to move into the higher dimensions and leave behind the lower vibrations, and the need for re-incarnation. With that in mind see "Innate Revealed" (below) which is probably new to many of you. It is important that you try to adapt your thinking to what is required to follow the new path to the higher levels of vibration.
