End of the World 2012 Movie contains Yucatan travel scenes

I notice that people are still buying the End of the World 2012 movie on Amazon. Actually, it does contain many good travel scenes of Yucatan, including the Chichen Itza Feathered Serpent Equinox event, Mayan ruins in Coba, Uxmal, and Palenque, and Chicxulub, the site where the comet hit 65 million years ago, which led to the extinction of the dinosaurs. In any case, if you’re wondering why the world didn’t end on December 21, 2012, this movie has the answers.

Here’s the official trailer:

Want to know what the actual 2012 Mayan prophecy said?

DVDFullWrapCoverTemplateAre you wondering why the world didn’t end on December 21, 2012?

So many popular authors wrote about and spoke about the 2012 end of the world prophecy as if they knew all about it. They made many predictions about the world’s end or transformation.

If you want to know what the actual Mayan prophecy said,  take a look at my video, End of the World 2012 Movie. It’s now in downloadable and 7-day rental as well as DVD form from Amazon. The download and rental are very reasonably priced.

You might be surprised to discover the truth. The video includes interviews with experts on the Maya such as Dr. Robert Sitler, Director of Latin American Studies at DeLand University in Florida.

If thoughts are things, and 10% worldwide thought the world would end on December 21, 2012, why didn’t the world end?

DVDFullWrapCoverTemplateWhat do you think? You can comment below.

With all that fear floating around, did the world not end because:

1. Thoughts aren’t things and volcanoes explode, earthquakes shake, and solar radiation sizzles independent of anything teeny, tiny humans (even 7 million strong) think

2. It takes the thought of much more than 700 million or 10% of the earth’s population to cause massive earth changes

3.  There’s always a lot of human-based fear on earth. This  fear around the 2012 date, was just part of the usual mix and therefore insignificant

4.  Even though the mind of human’s may be full of fear, in balance, there are so many happy thoughts, grateful thoughts, and just the body’s innate will to live that counteract the surface fear of the mind

5.  Other

So, I’ve been thinking.  If all 10% of the world’s population were thinking and also feeling so much fear, why didn’t the world end?

Please understand, I’m not saying that the world should have ended, because the Mayan calendar ended on that date and the Mayan prophecy said the world was going to end. That’s total rubbish. If you’ve seen my movie End of the World 2012 Movie or read my books, End of the World 2012 Book and EBook, you know that I investigated the Mayan “prophecy” and discovered it wasn’t a prophecy at all. And, that, in the movie and books, I reveal places where archaeologists have discovered Mayan ruins with Long Count Calendar dates past December 21, 2012.

That’s not what I’m talking about. What I’m talking about is the Reuters News survey, which I’ve mentioned before in this blog, that said that 10% of the people in the world feared that because the Mayan calendar was going to end, it meant the world was going to end. That’s what they thought. Based on rumor, media sensationalism, droves of books on 2012, and internet buzz, 10% of the world’s population believed (incorrectly) that the Mayan calendar was going to end.

Although 10% doesn’t seem like much (8% agreed somewhat and 2% agree absolutely), as it turns out, since the world’s population is seven billion, 10% is of the world’s seven-billion population is 700 million.

I’m really interested in your input on this topic. Part of the reason I made my movie and wrote my books, is that I wanted people to feel less afraid. So, it’s a topic I’ve been thinking about for a while.

What do you think? There should be a box under this post where you can make your comment.

False beliefs of the Mayan prophecy end of the world not entirely a grassroots movement

Lorenzo DiTommaso, professor of religion at Concordia University in Montreal, says that because of the grassroots nature of the Mayan apocalypse predictions, believers in the world’s end on December 21, 2012, will not have a leader to express their dissatisfaction that what they were told did not come to pass.

An online article by LiveScience says that:

Rationalizing and attempting to explain away failure is common among failed doomsday groups, said Lorenzo DiTommaso, a professor of religion at Concordia University in Montreal. In some cases, groups even claim that their prayers saved the world.

The Mayan apocalypse is likely to be different, if only because the Internet is bursting with dozens of contradictory prophecies about the day, DiTommaso told LiveScience.

After Mayan Apolacalypse Failure, Believers May Suffer

In my humble opinion, the belief in the end of the world was not only a grassroots movement fanned by contradictory Internet prophecies but was also touted by the conventional media. One of the reasons I wrote the End of the World 2012 EBook and Book, and made the End of the World 2012 Movie was because of a very convincing public television documentary on the 2012 Mayan prophecy that had upset a friend of mine. I set out to find the truth.

In addition, there were many, many books written by, for the most part, “new age” authors that appeared to be full of “scientific evidence,” when, in fact, if a person was to actually research the  Mayan calendar online in blogs by expert epigraphers or read books by Mayan experts, one would discover that many of the books had holes in their scientific evidence.

Perhaps those disgruntled believers actually do have leaders to show dissatisfaction with in these authors that wrote about fanciful events that were not the actual 2012 Mayan prophecies.

Electrical blackouts could be rampant with solar flare destruction on December 21 2012

The flare and so called after-flare Solar Prominence.The solar disk was blocked in PS for a better visual effect.

The flare and so called after-flare Solar Prominence.The solar disk was blocked in PS for a better visual effect.

Some people are spreading fearful projections that since the sun will be experiencing a solar maximum soon, IF there is a huge solar flares, as there were in 1859, the result could be the paralysis of our world. There are YouTube movies of predictions made a couple of years ago saying that on December 21, 2012, this projected solar maximum could cause the end of the world as we know it. In 1859, a solar flare caused telegram wires to melt. And, another solar flare of similar intensity could cause much greater havoc in the modern-day world in which we need electricity for just about everything.

However, I was in the Great Northwest Blackout of 1965 and lived through it.  In 1965, I was quite young–a small-town girl in the big city. At the time, I was in downtown Toronto about to take a night class at Ryerson. I was walking down the college’s halls when the lights went out. There were a couple of young men at their lockers. I’ll always remember the sound of my heels on the hard-polished floor of the college hallway as soon as it became black. The only lights we could see were the headlights of a cars turning out of the parking lot outside.

I’ll also always remember that the first thing one of the young men said as soon as the lights went out was, “Are you OK?” He was thinking of me. It meant so much to me to know that a young man’s first thought would be the safety of someone else.

On the other hand, the scariest part of the 1965 blackout was people smashing the big plate-glass windows of downtown stores for looting. I wandered out of the college onto Yonge St., downtown Toronto’s main street. Outside, it was crazy. In the dark, I saw a man furtively running out of a discount clothing store clutching four sweaters to his chest. One man almost smashed into me. Fortunately, a policeman had been watching. He caught my eye, his gaze gleaming in the beam of the headlights on Yonge Street. I could see his concern for me, a young woman unaccustomed to the mania of crazy people under stress. I backed away just in time to miss being hit by the crazy thief.

I decided to get on a Dundas Street streetcar and stay put out of the way of flying glass shards and darting thieves. The streetcars had supplemental power of some sort so they had some light on the inside, but they weren’t moving. I remember thinking how strange it was that a person’s first thought as soon as the electricity went out was to steal something. And, to steal four sweaters. Really? He had to steal four sweaters? They couldn’t have been very expensive.

So, in one night, I experienced the best and the worst of human nature.

In any case, we are less than two weeks away from that fateful date, December 21, 2012, and I am not seeing news items about increased solar flares. In fact, the date for the solar maximum has been revised to be sometime in 2013.

If you’ve seen some of these scary movies with a scientist or scientists talking about increased solar activity causing the end of the world as we know it on December 21, 2012, in my humble opinion, it’s time to take a breath and relax. It doesn’t appear to be happening.

NASA surveys asteroids to see which are potentially hazardous

Orbit Comparison between Near Earth and Potentially Hazardous Asteroids

Orbit Comparison: This diagram illustrates the differences between orbits of a typical near-Earth asteroid (blue) and a potentially hazardous asteroid, or PHA (orange). PHAs are a subset of the near-Earth asteroids (NEAs). They have the closest orbits to Earth’s orbit, coming within 5 million miles (about 8 million kilometers), and they are large enough to survive passage through Earth’s atmosphere and cause damage on a regional, or greater, scale. JPL/NASA public domain image.

NASA conducted a survey to determine which asteroids are potentially hazardous to earth. NASA scientists discovered that, in comparison with near-earth asteroids, the potentially hazardous asteroids are brighter and therefore more likely composed of hard rock, such as granite, or metal.

The potentially hazardous asteroids pass closer to earth than near-earth asteroids and are considered large enough to survive passage through the earth’s atmosphere. That’s why they’re labelled potentially hazardous.

Asteroids with lower-inclination orbits would be more likely to encounter Earth and would be easier to reach. The results therefore suggest more near-Earth objects might be available for future robotic or human missions.

NASA Survey counts potentially hazardous asteroids

None of the potentially hazardous asteroids are slated to hit earth on December 21, 2012, as far as I can tell. It appears that the end of the world on December 21, 2012 will not occur because of an asteroid impact with earth. However, near-earth asteroid 2007 PA8 did pass within 17 times the distance between the earth and moon in November (last month).

MAYA doomsday is a marketing fallacy

A Discovery News online article published on October 21st explores the public’s fascination with the End of the World 2012 prophecies. Ian O’Neill, author of the article, wonders why people are so enthralled with the Mayan prophecies. Many are noting that October 21st was only two months away from the fateful day. He especially wonders why the doom-sayers are promoting the 2012 prophecy so heavily when archaeologists are not finding references to the end of the world in the Mayan texts. He speculates:

Why do these strange individuals want us to believe in this nonsense? Some have a book to sell, while others have a horribly-edited YouTube video they want to share. Others are just plain odd. But regardless of the intent, the result is confusion and fear. Sadly, it is often people who would have otherwise gotten on with their lives peacefully who have swallowed the doomsday nonsense and become needlessly worried about the end of the world.

Excellent NASA video on End of the World 2012 and Planet X Nibiru

One of my main motivating reasons for making the End of the World 2012 Movie, Book, and EBook is my concern that many people truly believe that the Mayan prophecies say the world is going to end on December 21, 2012. I set out to find out the truth about the Mayan Calendar and the 2012 prophecy.

NASA is also concerned. According to NASA senior scientist David Morrison, he says that:

he gets messages from young people as often as once a week, some of them saying they’re so scared they’ve contemplated suicide.

US government asks people to calm down, says the world isn’t ending on December 21st

Please check out the excellent video at the above link which is on Yahoo! News Canada in which Morrison debunks the “fantasy” books on Planet X Nibiru with scientific fact.
