Mayan Elders Concerned Over 2012 ‘End of the World Hype’

by Mitch Battros – Earth Changes Media A significant date for the Maya does in fact end on 12-21-2012, and scientific evidence suggests a sound celestial foundation does in fact coordinate with the year 2012. Mayan Elder Apolinario Chile Pixtun, a Guatemalan, says the doomsday theories spring from Western, not Mayan ideas. There is a complicated and serious disconnect between previous doomsday scenarios such as 1) Gary North — “Y2K” every computer in the world would stop 2) Richard Noone — “05-05-2005″ the Earth would flip throwing everyone into space 3) Art Bell — Hale Bopp “companion” (spaceship), 39 people committed suicide based on this rumor 4) Nancy Lieder and Planet-X which was to kill Earth on May 15 2003. All the above were nothing more than sensationalized rumors of which none had come to pass. The described events were absent of any form of peer review — or even the slightest form of self-policing ethical standards. In other words, it went beyond “entertainment” and some believed reached the level which could be viewed as criminal misconduct. But who is really to blame? The messenger or the recipient? Maybe the answer is both. The time we are in will surely test a persons ability to discern between sensationalized woo-woo nonsense, and fact-based documentation along with scientific-based peer oriented screening. In addition, Mayan prophecy is tangible ancient text which has been passed down to generations for millennia. One of them is Tortuguero Monument Six: Found at an obscure ruin in southern Mexico during highway construction in the 1960s, the stone tablet almost didn’t survive; the site was largely paved over and parts of the tablet were looted. It’s unique in that remaining parts contain the equivalent of the date 2012. The inscription describes something that is supposed to occur in 2012 involving Bolon Yokte, a mysterious Mayan god associated with both war and creation. Archaeologist Guillermo Bernal of Mexico’s National Autonomous University interprets the last eroded glyphs as maybe saying, “He will descend from the sky.” The Mayan civilization had a talent for astronomy. Its Long Count calendar begins in 3,114 B.C., marking time in roughly 394-year periods known as Baktuns. Thirteen was a significant, sacred number for the Mayas, and the 13th Baktun ends around Dec. 21, 2012. “It’s a special anniversary of creation,” said David Stuart, a specialist in Mayan epigraphy at the University of Texas at Austin. “The Maya never said the world is going to end, they never said anything bad would happen necessarily, they’re just recording this future anniversary on Monument Six.” Bernal suggests that apocalypse is “a very Western, Christian” concept projected onto the Maya, perhaps because Western myths are “exhausted.” If it were all mythology, perhaps it could be written off — but it’s not. - The Sun - Based in science we find celestial events are in fact unfolding now, and will reach their apex (maximum) in the very time Mayan ancient text describes. Solar cycle 24 got off to a slow and uneventful start; however, lead scientists from NASA, NOAA, (ESA) European Space Agency, and (NCAR) National Center for Atmospheric Research all believe “it will not end with a lack-luster history”. It was first announced by Dr. Mausumi Dikpati senior research scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in March 2006 that cycle 24 is predicted to be 30% to 50% stronger than cycle 23. What has some scientists and amateur astronomers confused is the expectation that ’stronger’ means ‘more’. What I believe will occur is very similar to a tropical storm turned hurricane, then weakened back to a tropical storm. My prediction of how this may play-out is to say cycle 24 has begun with a whimper, perhaps dangerously lulling everyone to sleep, then begins to spark in late 2010, then remains relatively moderate for the first part of 2011, then a sharp and perhaps mostly unexpected surge with extreme solar flares and CME’s occurring through 2012. I am in fact suggesting the Sun will be the facilitator of both the ‘external’ (earth changes) and ‘internal’ (human state-of-being) transition which directly correlates with Maya’s true translation of 2012 being the period of “endings and beginnings”. Another event which occurs at the time of December 2012 is the Sun’s alignment (some would say our solar system) with the center of our galaxy ‘Milky Way’. It is believe by some, this transient event (meaning over a period of months) could have an effect on the Earth’s axis causing a more usual wobble. This would contribute to an increase of earthquake and volcanic activity due to its affect on the Earth’s mantle and tectonic plates. Author John Major Jenkins who has 20 years experience in studying Mayan ruins indicates the Maya were aware of the alignment and attached great importance to it. “If we want to honor and respect how the Maya think about this, then we would say that the Maya viewed 2012, as all cycle endings, as a time of transformation and renewal,” said Jenkins.

Here is a list of some recent disclosures which current patterns are aligned with predictions. Below is a list of what was disclosed by Mayan Elder Carlos Barrios of the ‘Clan de Aguila’ (the Eagle clan) in August of this year: Earth changing events such as earthquakes and volcanoes, seven viruses to come, theUnited States fall from power, US and western world financial collapse, the Sacred Books of ‘Chilam Balam’, nuclear exchange between Pakistan and India, the new world leader taking the place of the US, the July 22nd full solar eclipse, and thepossibilities or defeats of Barak Obama.
