Is the world going to come to a violent end in 2012 as is thought to have been predicted in prophesy? unfortunately this may indeed be so or at least a catastrophic even that will ultimately change the world and the way we live, but I personally do not believe it will be total annihilation or anywhere near it.
However, Nostradamus, The Mayans, The Hopi Indians, St Malachy, Mother Shipton of old, The Ancient Egyptian "Big book", The Chinese oracle of the I Ching, The Holy Bible (loosely suggested in Revelation), The Ancient Roman Oracle Sybil, Merlin-Myrddin and a whole host of other ancient prophets, seers and indeed scientists such as Albert Einstein, Terrence Mckenna, and Edgar Cayce including scientists at NASA have suggested or do now suggest that the time on or around December 21st 2012 as a time of some significant occurrence, an occurrence that will effect everyone on the planet.
Or are all these notable, intelligent people totally wrong and absolutely nothing will happen at all ? because for nothing to happen at all is the only other synopsis, don't forget that many people in the past have predicted the end of the world, up to the year 2000 and obviously, all have been wrong. I particularly remember when the year 2000 ( Y2K-Bug ) was predicted to yield a worldwide catastrophe and yet...absolutely nothing at all happened.
However, it is of no coincidence that all of these prophesies, systems and writings, from all the notables above (apart from the chimp!) have not mentioned anything beyond 2012 at all...but this does not mean the world is going to blow up. The second coming of the Saviour Lord Jesus Christ has probably been predicted for every decade since his death 2011 years ago. So I would rule out Christ's return as the major event, I say this even though I am a believer and a Christian. The Mayan astrological calendar was fantastically and exactly precise, even more so than the one we have today and it ends on December 21st 2012. Here is an example of how precise they were: in the 8th century AD the Mayans stated that on March 15th, 1519, Cortez and his Conquistadors, depicted as white skinned bearded gods by the Mayans, would invade their land. They were correct, 700 years to the exact day and date. Obviously the Mayans did not use our months, but when translated, this is the date that corresponds with theirs. As stated the Mayan calendar ends on December 21st 2012 because as is accurately thought, this is the day that the solar systems planets converge and now renders their "old" calendar as obsolete. The Mayans truly lived with their heads in the clouds, but still they did not say the world was going to get destroyed, just a change or a new start of some description.
The Mayan calendar does not suddenly end because they got bored correlating it or the fact it simply had to end at some point but because they did not want to predict anything after this date.
We are in turbulent times and the Mayans would have dated through it and beyond, but as we know, they didn't? Science in conjunction believes it is because the stars will all line up, rendering the Mayan calendar as past its sell by date and not the worlds end. However the die hard doom and gloom merchants still state that disasters will occur on December 21st 2012 and the more noteworthy ones that are being bandied about at the moment are... A very large and substantial meteor, asteroid or comet will smack into earth, rendering all life extinct as the Japanese Youtube video below depicts...the commentary is in Japanese but the video is self explanatory. The chances of this happening are not impossible but rather remote, billions to 1 against.
The nomadic and mysterious Planet X Nibiru may be a world changing candidate as it is thought may arrive into our immediate solar system. Planet X, a planet as large a Jupiter whizzing past the sun would indeed disrupt the natural solar balance of magnetic currents and cause pole shifts along with huge solar flares. This could indeed singe or at worse incinerate a large surface area of the world, except that it may not exist at all. Planet X has never been 100% proven, so not too much to worry about there. Unless it finally gets proven, but would NASA tell us?
Also there may occur what is known as a 'polar shift' as predicted by Albert Einstein and confirmed as possible by NASA in that the North and South poles could change direction and the world will change its tilt axis, this is also stipulated in the Chinese I Ching. A polar shift can happen over weeks, days or suddenly over just an hour. Earth, it is calculated, should also complete its 26,000 year wobble in 2012 and our Sun and the world will align with the center plane of the Milky Way, known as a galactic alignment. This too maybe enough to maybe cause some harm to our World, but not anywhere near destruction. A lot of maybe maybe in there too folks.
---------------------------------------------------------------------- UPDATE: January 13th 2011 Apparently, the magnetic fields around the poles have drifted about 5 degrees in the last couple of months, more on this as I research it as I do believe that the earths wobble can produce this at times. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The center of the Galaxy is 30,000 light years away, such a terrific distance that there would be negligible effects back on earth anyway. A sudden and violent burst of gamma rays from a cosmic disturbance that instantly weakens the earths magnetic fields and penetrates our environment would kill all life on earth too, but this again is a very big maybe with lots of ifs and buts and maybe maybe.
The Mayans knew about the galactic alignment, the lining up of the sun with the center of the galaxy and this would have signified to them a new beginning. As stated earlier this may simply be the reason why they did not want to continue with any more calendar findings. The Hopi Indians also talk about a rebirth and regeneration rather than blatant destruction, so there maybe salvation for us after all. Just to add a bit of fear...as one does...Scientist's however, do believe that the last time the world and sun was involved with a galactic alignment that many of earths animal species disappeared on land and sea. Although this sub-annihilation cannot be accurately pinpointed to the exact year. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE January 13th 2010 Dead crabs, birds and fish in their 100's of thousands have been dying around the world for no apparent reason. Also many colonies of bees and fireflies have simply disappeared. In some areas, birds have stopped chirping. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- In the Bible, Christ stated to Mathew and the disciples that there would be signs for the end of times and all of these signs are now with us, more than ever before. Please note: "End of times " this indicates the end of a system of things and not the end of the world, big difference, let us not misinterpret it and get the asteroids, volcanic eruptions and atomic bombs out just yet!
There are certainly enough end of times signs with us today that could meet a crescendo in 2012, more than ever before in our history... Natural: Worldwide droughts, floods, hurricanes, tsunamis, fires, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, global warming, famine, plagues, pestilence and disease. Manmade: Wars and rumours of wars, terrorism, religious fundamentalism, financial breakdown, crime, poverty, corruption, greed, high minded, selfishness, money worshipping, idolatry and Godlessness. But these things have always plagued our history to a greater or lesser degree if you research it! Maybe though, its just a case of enough is enough.
Obviously I hope that Nostradamus, The Mayans, The Hopi Indians, St Malachy, Mother Shipton, The Ancient Egyptian "Big book", The Chinese Oracle of the I Ching, The Holy Bible, The Ancient Roman Oracle Sybil, Merlin-Myrddin and a whole host of other ancient prophets, seers and indeed scientists such as Albert Einstein, Terrence Mckenna, and Edgar Cayce including scientists at NASA have all interpreted what is nothing more than a slight cosmic influence and not massive world destruction. To put into perspective, the Mayans entire lifespan of some 300 years centered around a massive pre-occupation with time, calendars, astronomy and astrology, all topics of which they were indeed experts. The Mayans implicitly understood these topics more than top professionals do today, if the world was going to end they would have said so...plainly...but they didn't, so it won't.
It has to be said that the likes of Nostradamus, The Hopi Indians or biblical prophets St John, Isaiah and Jeremiah and all of the seers of times long past had some system, power, device or method of seeing future events with crystal clarity as if they were standing there watching events unfold before them, but none of them ever definitely stated the world would physically end. The Holy Bible does say the heavens will disappear with a fervent heat and indeed it will do, but in about three billion years time hence, when the Sun expands into a super nova and encapsulates the earth with fire and heat in the 27 million degrees Fahrenheit range. The Holy Bible accurately told of how the world was created in Genesis, so it stands to reason that within its pages it would tell of how the world will come to an end. The Holy Bible envelopes the entirety of life on earth from start to finish, so to state that the heavens will disappear with a fervent heat is faithfully following its chronology of predictions, indeed describing an event that will take place in 3 billion or so years from now, but not 2012. Maybe the Mayans said it would be 3,000,000,002,012 and we got the numbers mixed up! To continue, this system, power or method of accurately predicting or even clearly seeing the future has been lost to us, lost over the passage of time or even deliberately destroyed. For example, the ancient and vastly comprehensive Royal Library of Alexandria was ransacked and destroyed by the Romans in the early centuries. The Royal Library of Alexandria was a gigantic library that contained millions of scrolls and books from scholars, seers and ancients from eons gone by and were burned when the library was set ablaze, the remaining books were used as a fuel to heat up the Roman baths.
The Romans despised anything that was not Roman and generally destroyed it...people included. Today we have not one single iota of knowledge on how the ancients could see the future so precisely...so we tend to write it all off as rubbish. We should not be too arrogant or ignorant though... ...I would like to emphasize that the Mayans took their calendar very seriously, exactly and with no guesswork, it was worked out methodically and to the letter they were true experts in their field and nothing less. But I don't believe that they were stating " the end is nigh " in fact they were not saying that at all. They were merely saying that the planets were going to line up and we may take it that a disturbance may result, but not in the shape of meteorites, floods, fires, earth splitting in half volcanic quakes and lava or anything else.
Almost all ancient prophesies of world wide tribulation, however, have come to pass. World War I and World War II with the rise of Hitler was predicted, so was the annihilation of Jerusalem by the Greeks, as was the rise of Alexander the Great, as was the rule of Genghis Khan, as was the destruction of Babylon...the list is quite exhaustive and were all foretold decades or many hundreds of years before they happened. So we can rest assured that something of a magnanimous proportion will occur, but not the end of the world, just a slight change of its circumstances cosmologically. What if it is a major disaster though?...
INTO THE GOLDEN AGE ...Well it won't be a major disaster...period. What I do believe will happen though, will be a giant and fantastic shift in human consciousness, a magnificent and unstoppable uplifting into a new dawn, a new spiritual era. This is also known as a shift into the Golden Age. The Mayans said that the world would be re-born, in that it and mankind would experience a new world. This could in effect be interpreted as a higher plane of spiritual manifestation and again points to the Golden Age. I believe that everyone in the world will quickly awaken to this new level of intelligence, totally in light of the Mayan prediction or revelation as you see it. I would go as far to say that this level of conscience has in fact already started to grow, with more and more people today becoming aware of the truth in all things. Many conspiracy theories will indeed become conspiracy fact. It has happened before as well, in a period of time known as The Renaissance...this was of course a Golden Age. There have apparently been three Golden Ages so far and we are now about to go into the fourth. During The Renaissance, people suddenly started to wake up and they wanted to learn and to teach the arts, sciences, reading, writing, mathematics, cultural differences, etc etc. and from that moment mankind changed, mankinds perceptions and values went up another notch it was indeed a Golden Age. At the same time, the value of life, that was generally considered to be cheap in those days, suddenly went up a few notches more and life became more discerning and of value. The authorities at the time tried to suppress it as they wanted people to remain ignorant, however they could not stop the tidal wave of education and intelligence that was rapidly budding forth across the land. The results of which are still here with us today in the form of universities, schools, colleges, studies, library's with professors, doctors and masters leading the way. The next Renaissance or Golden Age will take us into even higher realms of conscious, realms that haven't even been dreamed of. Again it is believed that the powers that rule our world are trying to prevent its occurence again. Its a cosmic law of nature that this new age is coming amongst us and any attempt to stop it, change it, ruin it will be totally frivolous, futile and laughable. The new Golden Age is coming and there is nothing anyone can do about it except to rejoice and go along with the flow. 2012 A Date With Destiny Don't forget that even though this grand event it is supposed to occur GMT, it could be a day either side of the 21st GMT, as it would be the 21st in Australia, the 20th in Europe and the UK and the 19th EST in USA because of the international timelines.
I state all of the above for your information, because the Governments of the world that know this, will never admit it, as they do not want to cause wide spread panic. I believe people are more intelligent than to run around like headless chickens though. However, do expect some anomalies to happen like, floods, tremors, hurricanes and try to be prepared as best you can for them...but no need to prepare for any world annihilation scenario.
---------------------------------------------------------------------- There have been massive floods
in Australia, that have submerged large areas of Brisbane under water,
effecting some 40,000 people. Areas that have never flooded
before! I will bring more updates to this
