Today I enjoyed reviewing video footage I taped while in Yucatan after the 2009 spring equinox near Chichen Itza. It is an interview of Mayan Daykeeper and Ceremonial Leader Hunbatz Men on his explanation of the Mayan science behind the 2012 prophecies. I am preparing for my presentation, “Do Mayan Shamans Believe the World Will End in 2012,” at the Edgar Cayce Forum on October 26th at Edgar Cayce’s A.R.E. in Virginia Beach, Virginia.

Here’s a description of my upcoming talk at the Edgar Cayce Forum on October 26, 2011 at Edgar Cayce’s A.R.E. in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
Do Mayan Shamans believe the world will end in 2012?
Carol Chapman wondered what the Maya had to say about 2012. After all, it is a Mayan prophecy that originated all the speculation about December 21, 2012. Were the modern-day Maya preparing for the end of the world? If so, were they afraid or fatalistic? Or, did they even know about the ancient Mayan prophecy? Could it be that all the media about 2012 was only an American phenomenon?
Therefore, while shooting video footage for the Yucatan Travel Movie: Cancun to Chichen Itza, she also interviewed every-day Maya and Mayan Shamans. These interviews became the nucleus of her upcoming presentation: Do Mayan Shamans believe the world will end in 2012? She will be giving her PowerPoint program at the Edgar Cayce Forum on Wednesday, October 26, 2011 at Edgar Cayce’s A.R.E. in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
Her presentation will include videotaped interviews, an explanation of the Maya’s fascinating and complicated calendar system, the actual ancient Mayan prophecy, as well as psychic revelations about the Maya from the trance readings of “the sleeping prophet” Edgar Cayce. For example, the Cayce Atlantis readings say that Atlanteans journeyed to Yucatan, the home of the Maya. Could the ancient Maya’s mathematical and astronomical prowess be the result of their Atlantis connection?
New Age metaphysical author and filmmaker Carol Chapman has traveled four times to the Yucatan and once to Egypt searching for indications that Atlanteans traveled to these locations. She used both her past life regression memories and the trance readings of the American seer Edgar Cayce to guide her explorations. She wrote of her adventures in When We Were Gods and Arrival of the Gods in Egypt.

The recent 8.9 earthquake off the coast of Japan and resulting tsunami could be earth changes predicted by many 2012 prophets.
Interestingly, I gave a date for the end of 2012 earth changes when, in a 1995 hypnosis session, the hypnotherapist asked me for dates concerning the end of predicted earth changes.
I wrote about my experiences and predictions in When We Were Gods.

I’ll be speaking at the Edgar Cayce Forum on Wednesday, October 26, 2011 at Edgar Cayce’s A.R.E. in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The topic:
The Tampa airport articles in which a runway has to be closed so that compass directional signs need to be revised agree with Charles H. Hapgood‘s book The Path of the Pole. They both say that the magnetic north pole is shifting westward. In the articles, the magnetic north pole is described as shifting westward from northern Canada towards Siberia in Russia.
I’ve heard some people voicing their fears that because the magnetic poles are shifting faster recently, this might represent earth changes connected with prophecies about the end of the world on December 21, 2012. However, since Hapgood’s book was published in the 1970s, before the 2012 furor, and since his book has maps showing actual reversals of the magnetic poles in the past, it appears that pole shift is a normal earth phenomenon.
The Tampa articles describe magnetic pole shift as being associated with a floating molten iron core in the earth’s center.

The 1970 book, The Path of the Pole, by history professor Charles H. Hapgood includes maps of the earth showing the many locations of previous north and south poles based on the geological study of rocks. Therefore, it would seem that recent articles about the shifting magnetic pole, and how the shift has lead to the Tampa airport having to close a runway for a couple of weeks to revise that runway’s signs of compass headings, is not a recent phenomenon and therefore a non-2012 event.

According to Charles H. Hapgood, in his The Path of the Pole, the magnetic field of the earth is in constant motion. It always drifts westward, as is the magnetic north pole described in articles about the closing of the Tampa airport runway. Hapgood assumes that the magnetic poles eventually come back to its original position, in line with the earth’s axis of rotation.
There are magnetic poles and geographical poles. They are seldom in the same place.
Is the present pole shift unusual? Will the poles reverse? Are we in the time before the 2012 cataclysm?

The recent articles on the Tampa airport needed to change their runway signs because of the magnetic pole shift leads a person to wonder: Could the present shift in the poles be connected with the 2012 phenomenon in which some people think that with the end of the Mayan Long Count Calendar on December 21, 2012, the world will also end.
According to a Mail Online article:
This could mean that prior to 1904 instruments had not yet been invented that could measure pole shift and that the poles had always been shifting. Therefore, if magnetic pole shift has occurred over the centuries and millennia, it would mean that it would not be associated with the 2012 phenomenon.
