    Numerology and 2012 A.D.

    One of the most significant years in numerology is the year 2012 A.D. That is because that is the date that the Mayans predicted that the world would end.

    Even people who do not know a lot about Mayan astrology have heard this theory that the year 2012 will bring the apocalypse. It is supposed to end on August 13th 2012, at 11:11 am. This is a date that has always significant to theorists, physicist, astrologers, historians and numerologists as the year signifies the end of the thirteen cycle that make up what is known as the Mayan Long Count Calendar.

    The Mayan Calendar contains both components of astrology and numerology. The people that belonged to this ancient civilization of South America were adept pampers and trackers of the heavens. The massive temples that were built by this early civilization were not just tombs or places to worship the Gods. They were also built to be giant observatories of the heavens.

    These temples were architecturally designed so that the movements of the planets, the sun, the moon and the stars could be tracked. The majestic structures that the ancient Mayans built war not just places of worship. They were centers of astronomic studies that also did dual duty as temples of worship. Some temples even had cut out's in their stones in the shapes of snakes. As the sun would raise these cut out shapes would cast lengthening shadows in the shape of snakes down the temple steps. From a distance it would seem that a real snake was slithering down the steps. When the snake shadow lengthened so that it reached the bottom of the steps it marked a day. One whole day in the Mayan calendar was called a Kin.



    The reason that ancient Mayan year was a little bit shorter than our current calendar of 365 years is that it was based on the astral cycles of Venus. The ancient Mayans knew that whenever this shining celestial body was close to the earth that it seemed to bring good times. Of course today we would note this knowing that the planet Venus is associated in astrology with love and blessings. The planet Venus also has cycles that are the equivalent in length to the number twenty.

    This Long Count system of measuring time was first put into practice by the Mayans around 32 B.C. The reason that it was called The Long Count is because the Mayans, who were quite dark spiritually, believed that the end of the world must happen. In fact it was something to look forward because life was believed to be easier after that.

    In essence the Mayan Long Count is the countdown to the eventual and unavoidable apocalypse that would bring the end of the world. The high priests and shamans in the Mayan culture figured out that the Long Count which is supposed to equal 5125.36 days.

    This number of days is also known as the Mayan Great Cycle. This passage of time ends exactly on the winter solstice. Amazingly the Mayan mathematicians were able to pinpoint the exact day and time that the world will end in the future and that is on August 13th
    2012. Just as a matter of interest they also believed that the world was conceived n August 13th. There is actual astrological and astronomical data to back up the theory of the Mayan Long Count and there are things happening in the sky that day that could potential bring the end of the world!

    Astrologically this date is important as this marks the date when the Sun is going to cross what is astronomically known as the Milky Way Equator. The Mayans were absolutely incredible mathematicians and they could predict centuries into the future when it came to
    predicting the trajectory of the Sun.

    Further here is a lot of imagery representing the Milky Way in works of art done by the Mayans. The sea of stars of the Milky Way is essential to the Mayan myth of the Sacred Tree.

    In fact in many of these drawings the sun is symbolized as a canoe that carries Mayan deities across the sky. In many drawings on temple walls there is a progressive series of images it shows the end of the world as symbolized by the canoe sinking into the Milky
    Way. Astrologically the crossing of the sun over the Milky Way equator scheduled to happen at exactly 11:11 a.m GMT on August 13th in the year 2012.

    This type of astrological event is unheard of as the sun will technically be in what is known as the "dark rift" of the Milky Way and oddly also be in conjunction with the exact center of the universe.

    Many visionaries and metaphysicians have noted how important this date is to the end of the world. One famous analysis called "The Mayan Prophecies" (authored, Adrian Gilbert and Maurice Cotterill ) have put forth the theory that the sun will reverse its magnetic field that day. This would be a development that would result in weather changes and seismic shifts that could cause the end of the world.

    Of course the end of the world has been predicted many times in history and it is more likely that the Long Count will signify the end of one era and a new beginning of onsciousness. However it is quite odd that the number 11:11 which is apocalyptic in other religions and cultures is the same in this world.

    The Mayans created a complicated calendar system that is accurate to within 34 seconds of what we call a month... Not bad for a people who lived around 1,800bc.

    Each Mayan age ends with a cataclysmic event, the last ended with water and this one is supposed to end with earthquakes and earth changes.

    At the moment it is believed that the earths magnetic field is reversing ( as it has done many times before ) so north will be south and south will be north. This could cause earthquakes and earth changes... nobody is really sure what the effects will be... but effects there will be.

    This is were my money goes on the polar shift theory.

    Anyway sounds like a new film will be on the way... then we will all know what is going to happen... And you never know @pumps maybe bruce will get to save the world again.

    Thirty-six per cent of the commercial beehives in the US were lost to colony colapse disorder [CCD] in the winter of 2008. The syndrome, in which all of the worker bees in a colony die off suddenly, leaving nothing but a solitary queen wandering alone on empty frames, has spread to several countries in Europe already including France, Belgium, Italy, Portugal and Spain. Several causes of the disease have been suggested, including the almost universally present varroa mite, certain pesticides, Israeli acute paralysis virus, climate change and mobile phone broadcasts, but none have yet been proved to be the culprit. No cure has been found either, and as cases are reported in new countries the likelihood of a global pandemic leading to the extinction of the honeybee becomes a real possibility.

    Evidence: Apart from the loss of the honey crop, without the honeybee several crops key to human life would be wiped out, including the soya bean, cotton, brassicas, several kinds of nut including brazil nuts and almonds, grapes, apples and sunflowers, the source of a large proportion of the world's vegetable oil. Thirty per cent of the world's food is directly traceable to the action of bees. If they became extinct severe shortages, starvation, violence and riots would surely follow.

    The death of the Honey Bee by all accounts is more likely to cause the end of the world than ww3... invasion by aliens... running out of oil... terrorism... solar event... pole shift... In fact the only other event that rates as high as all the honey bees dying is Thirty-six per cent of the commercial beehives in the US were lost to colony colapse disorder [CCD] in the winter of 2008.

    some people have made good points but unless people have a time machine then its a guessing game! and if it happens it happens.

    famous quote from red dwarf

    missing bible page!

    Here is the news on Friday, the 27th of Geldof. Archeologists near Mount Sinai have discovered what is believed to be a missing page from the Bible. The page is currently being carbon-dated in Bonne. If genuine, it belongs at the beginning of the Bible and is believed to read, "To my darling Candy. All characters portrayed within this book are fictitous and any resemblance to persons living or dead is purely coincidental." The page has been universally condemned by church leaders

    "red dwarf better than life"

    Well if we're all going to die in 2012 I may as well expose myself to my next door neighbour, I've been thinking about doing it for years.

    I wonder if he'll find it sexy.

    I personally don't think 2012 will be the exact day the world will end.

    Over the past few years the earths temperature has been rising. It is getting worse every day. By December 2012 the temperature and every natrual disaster associated with global warming will begin to escalate. I agree with the physicists and scientist who say that the earth is up for another renewing cycle. I also don't think global warming is due to burning fossil fuels. Glaciers show evidence of rapid heating way before modern civilizations. It's a natural occurrence that we don't fully comprehend but we're trying to find a good reason.
