I recall hearing something like that.
Anyway, I’m no expert on the topic but the basic idea of what I would have said was already covered by Entheoman a few posts ago. As far as I know, the idea that the Mayan calendar ends on that particular date is actually erroneous. The winter solstice of 2021 marks the end of a grand cycle, one that is 26,000 years long. Within that, there are many smaller cycles. But this cycle, this is one big deal. You can equate this with a spiritual shift in the planet, and for humanity if you want, but I don’t think the moment itself is going to be huge. Then again, I guess you never know.
[color=crimson]Let’s see, I don’t recall where I first read that info, but here’s a link to a site I found. [/color] It includes an accurate quote from a 7th century Mayan Prophet.
And so I take it that we’re coming to the point of the brink of this destruction, with our mad technological growth and ignorance to the massive destruction to the planet. The only way to sidestep this is to begin the healing process of the earth, to go back to a way of living that doesn’t clash with the laws of nature. We may make it, we may not. We could just as well plummet to a self-made destruction as begin to heal our past mistakes.
So as far as I see it, the year may mark the beginning of a new era for humankind, kind of like that song, “Age of Aquarius/Let the Sunshine in.” Its just too bad the vast majority of Mayan documents were destroyed by some Spanish jerk.
I also think that the actual energetic shift of the planet will go unnoticed by most people, save for a few sensitive individuals. As far as the whole doomsday stuff goes, I’m not going for it. People try to predict the end of the world all the time but it just keeps grinding on. So I’m waiting for the day. Can’t wait to see if the world starts to become a better place.
Oh, and by the way, the pyramids were built by aliens and about 2/3 of crop circles are authentic.
