As you say, it is just the end of the Mayan Calendar.
But, I believe this date will have great significance.... WHY?
1) More than just the Mayans have talked about 2012. Check out the Sumerians and their 2012 account. And fyi, Sumeria is where many of the earlier
stories of the bible originate. And, its a completely separate civilization from the Mayan one. Coincidence?
The Hopi Indians also talk about the end of days. And just before this, the world will be connected by a spider web. This spider web that connects
the world, yells to me of the Internet, which connects us all instantly.
2) Lets look at the Mayan calendar itself. It is comprised of several rings. The 2012 date is the ending of the third outer ring. We don't
understand what this outer ring is for... yet.
The Second ring is the gestation of life. It is the maturation of a fetus into a human being. So, i believe that the third is possibly maturation of
a species.
Are we sure of what this third ring is? No. But, I hardly doubt that it is a completely arbitrary point in time.
Many 2012 theories point towards psychic abilities and awakening of consciousness. However, I am still skeptical.
But, I feel as if we have changes to come in addition to the massive changes that we have already been experiencing. But, read my signature!
