Armageddon 2012 or the 2012 phenomenon is composed of various catastrophic or trans-formative events that will occur on December 21, 2012. The said date is also the end of Mayan Long calendar’s 5,125 years.
According to New Age believers, the planet is about the experience a spiritual transformation during this time and therefore interprets the 2012 predictions as the start, instead of the end of the world. Meanwhile, others say that this date marks the end of the planet based on the Book of Revelations. Among the possible scenarios that would end the world include the planet’s impact with another planet (called Nibiru), black hole explosion, or the development of the next solar maximum. In anticipation of the coming of that day, some people even launched 2012 official countdown.
The Mayans, an sophisticated civilization during the early times, made their calendar around 250-900 AD. The Mayan civilization was superior during their times because they were skillful in writing, construction, and urban planning. Mayans are also famous for their pyramids and elaborate buildings. In addition, the Mayans were avid users of calendars and considered time as spiritual cycles. Most of their calendars were short, but they combined their different calendars until they developed their Mayan Long calendar lasting 5,125 years. How does the end of their calendar connect with the end of the world? The Mayan foresight is based on the notion that something bad will happen when the long calendar runs out on what many people call Doomsday, December 21, 2012, scientists say.
The coronal mass ejection from the sun is one of the predictions that might occur on December 21, 2012. In 1859, coronal mass ejection occurred that affected the telegraph system in North America and Europe. The same event is predicted to occur in the year 2012, along with huge massive power blackouts and wreckage of satellites.
Explosion from the black hole is another possibility that is expected to occur. When it happens, the cosmic ray waves from the black hole may cause vast and destructive tsunamis on the planet.
Will the world end on Doomsday? When something ends, many people assume the radical possibilities of ending. Contrary to what many say, the Mayans actually predicted an enlightenment happening when 2012 comes. Worldwide destruction, Aztec end of the world, and Mayan Long calendar prophecy have no real basis. There was no mention of Armageddon in any Mayan literature. The theory of a cataclysm happening in 2012 has been dismissed by scholars from various disciplines since no predictions are found in classic Maya accounts or in astronomy. This is just comparable to the Y2K fear that occurred in the late 1990s according to NASA.
For many years now, the Doomsday 2012 prediction has been in the topic of many conversations. There are two sides of the coin- one says there will be global destruction, while the other says there will be enlightenment. The people may never know if Doomsday is for real until such time that the day occurs.
