2012: A New Species Evolving

Barbara Max Hubbard, cofounder and president of the Foundation for Conscious Evolution believes 2012 heralds the challenge to either evolve or devolve. She sees the crises we confront as opportunities for humanity to rise to evolving a new human being . . . or become extinct.

2012 Alignment with Galactic Center

The ancient Maya call the dark gap in the middle of the bulging glowing center of our Milky Way galaxy “Xibalba be” according to John Major Jenkins in his The Mystery of 2012 article, “The Origins of the 2012 Revelation.”

“Xibalba be” means “the road to the other world.”

Ancient Maya & Ruler of Previous World

The ancient Maya immortalized the ruler of the previous world in Seven Macaw, the Big Dipper and its seven stars. Seven Macaw fell because of arrogance and conceit. John Major Jenkins writes about Seven Macaw in his article in The Mystery of 2012.

I wonder if Seven Macaw refers to Atlantis? According to Edgar Cayce, the ancient Maya originally came from Atlantis. Cayce’s trance source says that the Atlanteans were a different race than the human race. Their civilization fell because of arrogance and conceit. Atlantis went down into the Atlantic Ocean during what Cayce says was a shift in the earth’s axis.

Therefore, I wonder: Did the seven stars of the Big Dipper actually fall or tilt in a different direction in the sky after the earth’s axis shifted? What do you think?

Ancient Maya Creation Myth

John Major Jenkins, author of Maya Cosmogenesis 2012, says that the Maya Creation Myths are a central theme of the stone monuments in Izapa.

The myths include the conceited ruler Seven Macaw, as well as the Hero Twins and the solar deity who is father of the twins, Hunahpu.

2012 Refers to Mayan God’s Resurrection

According to John Major Jenkins in his The Mystery of 2012 article entitled, “The Origins of the 2012 Revelation,” the 2012 winter solstice on December 21, 2012, refers to the Maya sun diety called One Hunahpu.

Jenkin’s study of the Izapa, Guatemala group of monuments in the ancient ruin’s ball court led him to believe that the date refers to the resurrection of One Hunahpu.

Maya: Those Who Gaze at the Center

In an article published in the pages of The Mystery of 2012, John Major Jenkins says that the Mesoamericans called themselves the “nik wak’inel” or “those who gaze into the center.”

Then, he asks the question, the center of what?

He replies that the ancient Mesoamericans identified three centers. They are:

The center of the North or the Polestar represented by what they called “Seven Macaw” which was the seven stars of the Big Dipper constellation
The center of the sky overhead or at the zenith. This they called Quetzalcoatl which was in the area of the Pleiades constellation
The center of the Milky Way Galaxy which is presently in the last three degrees of the constellation Sagittarius.

Tzolkin Mayan Calendar Measures Corn Life Cycle

The Tzolkin religious or ceremonial calendar of the Maya not only measures the gestation period of a human baby. It also measures the life cycle of the corn plant. One cycle of the Tzolkin lasts 260 days. In the highlands of Guatemala, 260 days marks the time between the day corn is planted and the day corn is harvested. According to John Major Jenkins, the Maya Creation Myth says that human beings are made of corn. Therefore, the human and the corn cycles coincide according to the Tzolkin.

Mayan Calendar Used by Mayan Midwives

According to John Major Jenkins, Mayan midwives use the 260-day religious or ceremonial calendar to predict the expected birthdate of a baby. The calendar is called the Tzolkin (pronounced zol-keen). The midwives use the date of the first missed period plus 260 days to determine the expected birthdate.

2012 Monument in Izapa

John Major Jenkins says that important Maya monuments in Izapa were carved between 400 BC and AD 100. He says that one of the stelae in the Izapa group says that the sun is reborn from the dark center of the Milky Way. In reading his article in The Mystery of 2012 I am not sure if the Izapa monuments contain the date December 21, 2012. In any case, Jenkins believes the Izapa monuments and their message are connected with the December 21, 2012 date.

Ahau God of December 21, 2012

In ancient Mayan text, the god of the December 21, 2012 date is called “Ahau,” which refers to the god of the sun, the origin of time, a fitting god for the end of the world. However, to the ancient Maya, the end of the world came every 52 years when they destroyed their furniture and built new items and when they built new temples on top of existing temples and pyramids to mark the new world.
