A little information before you start reading. This is an article (of a research) for Mayan’s Calender. I believe something will happen on 2012, as it will be the exact year with the end of Ancient Mayan’s Calender. Lastly, Zoiz Spells for 2012.
Why did the ancient Mayan or pre-Maya choose December 21st, 2012 A.D., as the
end of their Long Count calendar? This article will cover some recent research.
Scholars have known for decades that the 13-baktun cycle of the Mayan “Long
Count” system of timekeeping was set to end precisely on a winter solstice, and
that this system was put in place some 2300 years ago. This amazing fact – that
ancient Mesoameri- can skywatchers were able to pinpoint a winter solstice far
off into the future – has not been dealt with by Mayanists. And why did they
choose the year 2012? One immediately gets the impression that there is a very
strange mystery to be confronted here. I will be building upon a clue to this
mystery reported by epigrapher Linda Schele in Maya Cosmos (1994). This article
is the natural culmination of the research relating to the Mayan Long Count and
the precession of the equinoxes that I explored in my recent book Tzolkin:
Visionary Perspectives and Calendar Studies (Borderlands Science and Research
Foundation, 1994).
Classic Period is thought to have lasted from 200 A.D. to 900 A.D., but recent
archeological findings are pushing back the dawn of Mayan civilization in
Mesoamerica. Large ruin sites indicating high culture with distinctly Mayan
antecedents are being found in the jungles of Guatemala dating back to before
the common era. And even before this, the Olmec civilization flourished and
developed the sacred count of 260 days known as the tzolkin. The early Maya
adopted two different time keeping systems, the “Short Count” and the Long
Count. The Short Count derives from combining the tzolkin cycle with the solar
year and the Venus cycle of 584 days. In this way, “short” periods of 13, 52 and
104 years are generated. Unfortunately, we won’t have occasion to dwell on the
properties of the so-called Short Count system here. The Long Count system is
somewhat more abstract, yet is also related to certain astronomical cycles. It
is based upon nested cycles of days multiplied at each level by that key Mayan
number, twenty:
