Doomsday 2012 or the 2012 phenomenon is composed of various catastrophic or trans-formative events that will occur on December 21, 2012. That date is also said to be the finish of the 5,125 years in the Mayan Long calendar.
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 establishment, instead of the end of the world. However, based on the Book of Revelations, many people understand that this date is the end of the world. Among the possible events that would end the world include the planet’s collision with another planet (called Nibiru), black hole explosion, or the development of the next solar maximum. Some people even created 2012 official countdown, in anticipation of what will happen to the world that day.
The Mayan Calendar was constructed around 250-900 AD by an complex civilization called the Mayans. They were considered advanced because they exhibited exceptional written, construction, and urban planning skills. Intricate buildings and pyramids made Mayans very famous. 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. Is there a relationship between the end of their calendar and the end of the world? The Mayan forecast is based on the assumption that something bad will happen when the long calendar runs out on what many people call Doomsday, December 21, 2012, scientists say.
An additional prediction about December 21, 2012 is the coronal mass ejection from the sun. In 1859, the same catastrophe happened, when a solar storm occurred, which brought about failures in the telegraph systems in North America and Europe. The same incident 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 likelihood that is expected to occur. Accordingly, such incident will bring about cosmic ray waves that can cause massive destructive tsunamis in the planet.
Will the world end on Doomsday? When something ends, many people assume the extreme possibilities of ending. However, according to archaeologists, the Mayans predicted an age of enlightenment when 2012 comes. The tie between global catastrophe, Aztec end of the world, and Mayan calendar-based prophecy is largely fiction. There was no mention of Doomsday in any Mayan literature. In fact, scholars from various disciplines have already dismissed the concept of cataclysmic events happening in 2012. This is just comparable to the Y2K fear that occurred in the late 1990s according to NASA.
For many years now, the Armageddon 2012 prophecy 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 Armageddon is for real until such time that the day occurs.
