Product Description

Synopsis

Presents the author's argument that according to the Maya calendar, the fourth world age will come to an end on December 21, 2012, and with this change a large chapter in human history will come to an end.


From the Author

In a nutshell summary of my book: transformation now
The Maya were aware of our impending alignment with the Galactic Center and intuited that it will catalyze consciousness transformation for life on earth. Ancient knowledge speaks to our immediate future. The ancient site of Izapa is identified as the source of the Mayan's Galactic Cosmology, of the Long Count calendar and the Hero Twin Creation Myth. The true meaning of the shadow-serpent that appears on the Pyramid of Kukulcan at Chichen Itza every equinox is also decoded. Based upon nine years of intense research, my book presents a detailed and honest reconstruction of the lost cosmology of ancient Mesoamerica. See my Four Ahau Press website for other publications and upcoming event info.

5.0 out of 5 stars DiaGnosis: 2012 research starts here, 19 Feb 2007
By G. Stray "Geoff Stray" (Glastonbury, Somerset, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
John Major Jenkins has looked into the question of why the Maya ended their 13-baktun cycle in the Gregorian year 2012, and has researched the matter in incredible detail, and comes to conclusions that result from detailed study of many archaeological and specialist works. His study shows that the Maya deliberately targetted this point in time as the end of the cycle, and the evidence is found in king-accession rites, mythology, architecture, and the ball-game.

As you will know if you've read other reviews, the reason is the alignment of the winter solstice sun with the galactic equator - an event that happens only once in a cycle of precession - around 26,000 years. This IS NOT the "alignment of the solar system with galactic centre" or any of the other misrepresentatations of his work that have appeared.

This work stands whether or not anything noticeable happens in the years around 2012 - the fact is, that the Maya predicted that something would happen around 2012. This has become evident since the publication of this book, since the Tortuguero prophecy entered the public domain. In April 2005, the existence of Tortuguro monument 6 was revealed, (though known to a few specialists before that). The stela gives the end-date 4 Ahau, 3 Kankin, 13 Baktun (a combination of 3 calendars that gives the 21 December 2012 date) and gives an accompanying prophecy of the return of the Nine Gods.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not for the novice., 17 Jun 1999
By A Customer
This is an excellent book on the formation of many of the Maya ideaologies. The Maya calendar, Popol Vuh, astronomy, and even some interesting predictions about the future, namely Dec. 21, 2012. This is not the usual doom and destruction but rather an indepth look at the Maya vision. Jenkins has presented many facts to substantiate his ideas. This is a very detailed explanation on the Milkly Way galaxy and how it may relate to Maya art and culture. I highly recommend this book for anyone truely interested in learning more about the Maya.

5.0 out of 5 stars With his better than academic decoding..., 12 May 1999
By A Customer
With his better than academic decoding of the mysterious Maya glyphs that incorporate both their colorful mythology and sophisticated astronomy, John Major Jenkins has validated that shamans, with their out-of-body clairvoyance, were responsible for the amazing accuracy of Mayan and other Mesoamerican calendar systems that cover thousands of years of earthly, planetary, and galactic motion. That Mayan deities represent astronomical bodies, as did the pantheons of Egypt and Mesopotamia, is equally validated by Jenkins. His emphasis on the famous Long Count calendar shows that when the rising sun on the December solstice of the year 2012 conjuncts with the Milky Way's galactic center - or birth canal of the Great Mother of us all - a new age is expected, one in which humanity will mutate spiritually into a new relationship with space-time and the material universe.
