How could there be such speculation of the 2012 Mayan Prophecies?
The event that occurs on December 21st 2012, is considered the 2012 alignment, the winter solstice. At exactly that date a major galactic event will occur causing the earth and the sun to be completely in line with the centre of the Milky Way. This event only occurs every 25,800 years and is believed by the Maya that earth enters the cosmic womb. Here is where the speculation arises. The cosmic womb can either mean, the place of dead, rebirth and generation or transformation. Now you can see where the debate begins, some argue that the Maya didn’t mean the end of the world is going to occur on December 21st 2012, but rather a rebirth of earth or transformation into a new cycle. Since the calender is made of cycles, astrologers and scientists believe that the end of the calender means a new cycle will occur on the calender. I like optimism, but the problem with this theory is the fact that the cosmic womb also means the place of dead. Astrologers have recognised that a black hole exists
