DOOMSDAY 2012- Do not panic.... F*$# THAT! EVERYBODY RUN!!!!!!!




Doomsday has been predicted for centuries by many believers around the world, stemming back to times when history was etched into stone by the Sumerians. Later on, other civilizations like the Mayans created a calendar that ended mysteriously on December 21, 2012.  It supposedly predicted this date as an end of a cycle. What could they have really meant if we are all still here as of sunrise? Was it simply meaning, the Winter Solstice, because that happens every year.

 Those that truly believe in the end of the world went into survival mode by stockpiling or even flocking to different sacred mountains and areas around the world, expected some sort of display of a higher existence. Apparently so much thought has been put into it that many of the surrounding hotels and motels at these locations are booked solid by whole families.

Doomsday approaches or does it? - Cecilia Rose Reporting ....



What do avies think about the Mayan's prediction of Doomsday? 

Before answering this initial question, it is necessary to focus on some fundamental issues, such as: what the Mayan calendar really is? How does it work and  what is the contribution of modern research on the Prophecy?

1) What is the Mayan Calendar?

The Mayan calendar is a system of calendars used in pre-Columbian Mesoamerica, and in many modern communities in highland Guatemala and in Veracruz, Oaxaca and Chiapas, Mexico.

The essentials of the Maya calendar are based upon a system which had been in common use throughout the region, dating back to at least the 5th century BCE. It shares many aspects with calendars employed by other earlier Mesoamerican civilizations, such as the Zapotec and Olmec, and contemporary or later ones such as the Mixtec and Aztec calendars.

Although the Mesoamerican calendar did not originate with the Maya, their subsequent extensions and refinements of it were the most sophisticated. Along with those of the Aztecs, the Maya calendars are the best-documented and most completely understood.

By the Maya mythological tradition, as documented in Colonial Yucatec accounts and reconstructed from Late Classic and Postclassic inscriptions, the deity Itzamna is frequently credited with bringing the knowledge of the calendar system to the ancestral Maya, along with writing in general and other foundational aspects of Maya culture.
