Maya Prediction: 2012

Indians of the Maya tribe had knowledge that was based only on astrological observations. Temples in cities were built in such a way that certainparts of buildings were oriented to important positions of heavenly bodies. In addition, the Maya built pyramids, which were simultaneously giant stone calendars. Such astronomical structures in the territory of the Maya Indians are very large.

Using their knowledge, the Maya Indians well led agricultural work in a tropical climate. Their calendar year consisted of 18 months to 20days in each. But even then the priests established that the solar year (the period for which the Earth makes a complete revolution around the Sun) is 365 days. And these calculations were available to Maya at a time when there was no technique.

Mayan Calendar: 2012

The famous Aztec calendar is called "The Stone of the Sun", according to which the Mayan priests determined the beginning andend of this or that era. According to the Mayan calendar, there are five epochs of the Sun, each of which lasted long enough. The end of each era was marked by certain cataclysms, as a result of which the race of people almost completely died out. She was succeeded by the next race. And so it has already happened four times. Here is the end of the Mayan calendar, that is, the fifth epoch in which we live, falls precisely on 2012.

What can make us believe in Mayan prophecy? Already for a long time it was established how the solar epochs came to an end. The Age of the First Sun lasted 4008 years andended with an earthquake, and all the living things were eaten by jaguars. The Second Sun period lasted a little longer - 4010 years and ended with the furious cyclones destroying almost everything. The era of the Third Sun ended with the destruction of "fiery rain", spilled from volcanic craters. The Age of the Fourth Sun ended in a terrible flood. Analyzing the data of the Mayan calendar, the scientists made some analogies with natural disasters that occurred in antiquity.

We live in the era of the Fifth Sun, which, according to the Mayan calendar, ends on December 21, 2012. But what exactly should happen, prophecyMaya 2012 will not give us an answer. We just can guess. Adherents of the idea of ​​the end of the world insist that if the Mayan calendar cycle ends, then the Earth will inevitably die.

But Maya's prediction can also be looked at on the other hand. Astronomers have already calculated that on December 21, 2012there will indeed be a phenomenon: the Sun will be in the zone of the Milky Way. On this day, anything can happen. It can be any natural phenomenon, the scale of which can affect absolutely everyone. But on the other hand, this date can be viewed from the point of view of a simple beginning of a new era in which the spiritual insight of people will come. Nobody can really say what will happen.

The problem of ending the Mayan calendar and their predictions has already been given quite a bit of time. Supporters of this or that idea wrote about this book, in which a different interpretation of this event was always given. But nevertheless, the May 2012 prediction is interpreted only by three opinions.

The first interpretation says that the end of the world will come in the truest sense of the word. Another opinion - mankind will come into contact with extraterrestrial civilizations. Third opinion - a qualitatively new stage of people's development will begin, and they will acquire various unique abilities, for example, telekinesis.

No one can reliably say, what to expect on December 21, 2012. But in all predictions there is one and the same meaning: to think about your life.
