Mayan Calendar May Not End In Our 2012

The Maya had calendars and time "synchronizers." They do not correspond to our degenerate Gregorian calendar. Our simplistic chart was designed to distance us from cycles associated with the stars, planets, astrology, and the 13 annual phases of our Moon (Image: howstuffworks.com).

(LiveScience.com) Predictions about the Mayan calendar may be greatly exaggerated, which is to say: The world may not be coming to an end on December 21, 2012. (Needless frenzy? Do we remember "demanding" toxic, autism-inducing "swine flu" vaccinations for our kids -- creating a profit bonanza for pharmaceutical companies and giving governments greater control?)Mayan Calendar symbols explained

But a chapter in a new textbook "Calendars and Years II: Astronomy and Time in the Ancient and Medieval World" (Oxbow Books, 2010) could throw off all those ominously titled Discovery Channel specials. According to LiveScience, Prof. Gerardo Aldana of the University of California at Santa Barbara, writes that methods for converting the Mayan calendar to the popular Gregorian calendar are inaccurate, according to Prof. Aldana, by 50 to 100 years.

THE TZOLKIN: A RELIGIOUS TIME KEEPER Wisdom Quarterly (COMMENTARY)The "Tzolkin" ("sacred") Synchronary was not a calendar as such. It used a 260-day cycle and was in use throughout Mesoamerica, not only by the Maya. The sky-gods (Buddhist, AKASHA-DEVAS and/or ASURAS) provided it. The Maya's startlingly advanced society -- just like that of the Khmer empire in Southeast Asia (and that of the Mesoamerican Olmecs, Toltecs, and Aztecs) -- was consumed by Reptilians (Buddhist, NAGAS). They are still here influencing human affairs.

The "Tzolkin" may be the oldest "calendar" in the Mayan system of calendars and may have been the more important. Others kept track of cosmic cycles of time (Buddhist, KALPAS), time spans too enormous to be of significance for short-lived human cultures. But they were very important to extraterrestrials.

Yet, that the world's ancient "mythologies" could be more history than fantasy is simply too hard for modern people to believe. So why talk about it? Better to worry needlessly or dismiss everything as a HOAX. But the American "Sleeping Prophet" Edgar Cayce had much to say about the shift to a new age, which the Maya (Mayans) framed as the end of this world.

EDGAR CAYCE ON 2012

To the most famous American psychic of all time, the year 2012 is only the arrival of a New Age, according to Kevin Todeschi, executive director and CEO of Edgar Cayce's A.R.E.

The New World Order is not about the supremacy of some nations over others. Instead, it is about a new focus for the world as a whole. We are caretakers of one another. Cayce's readings describe that responsibility in this way:

* "Make of thine OWN heart an understanding that thou must answer for thine own brother, for thine own neighbor! And who is thine neighbor? He that lives next door, or he that lives on the other side of the world? He, rather, that is in NEED of understanding! He who has faltered; he who has fallen even by the way. HE is thine neighbor, and thou must answer for him!" (Edgar Cayce Reading #3976-8).

The next age, starting in 2012, will eventually embody an understanding of this focus.
