Some of you may have heard of this prophecy that has a lot of people in the mystical fringe buzzing with certain anticipation.
Briefly using sophisticated mathematics inspired by their equally sophisticated astronomy the Mayan sooth sayers of South America have made significant predictions for the time period of around the 21st of December 2012. As we reach the end of a 36000 year galactic cycle. In other words on this date as the sun reaches mid-day the earth, sun and galactic center line up in a way that occurs only once every 36000 years. [ or so I think I have understood this to be]
Their use of a galactic calenda instead of just an Earth based calenda is rather intriguing to say the least.
I find the whole thing facinating, and wonder if others share a similar enthusiasm. Sure like all prophecy it is easy to debunk and ridicule however I wonder if one can be impressed by the profound use of mathematics that this race of ancioent times has used and the apparent accuracy of it´s other predictions.
NB. Please if I have made incorrect statements on the detail let me know...
