You must have probably heard about the “December 21, 2012 - Doomsday” the day when the world is prophesized to come to an end. In fact, you will find it amusing that this December 21, 2012 - End Of The World prophecy has been backed up by so many religions, calendars, and prophecies. So, is this another theory of Apocalypse that will come and go like the ones we have been seeing or is it the one that we should pay attention to? After digging for several hours through the Internet in this matter, I came up with the following worthy information regarding “The End Of The World.”
Mayan Calendar: The ancient Mayan calendar states that the world will end in December 21, 2012. The Mayan civilization flourished in Central America from the 6 A.D. to 9 A.D. They were obsessed with time-keeping, and in fact, their calender were so incredibly precise that its interlocking time scales of lunar, solar, and planetary cycles could accurately predict solar/lunar eclipses thousands of years into the future. This accurate calendar however mysteriously ends on December 21, 2012!
It states that on December 21, 2012, the sun rises on the dark rift of the center of the milky way which is referred to as a black hole. In the last five years, the western astronomers have in fact discovered that there is in fact an enormous black hole at the center of our milky way galaxy. The contemporary astronomers concur with the Mayans. On 21st of December, 2012, the Earth will be in exact alignment with the Sun and the center of our milky way galaxy, a galactic event which takes place only once every 25,800 years! No one knows what effect this extraordinary alignment will have on our planet, but the Mayans believe it would be terrible!
The Polar Shift Theory: Geophysicists have a theory that is strikingly similar to the events predicted by the Mayan alignment. The phenomenon is called the “polar shift,” in which the entire mantle of the earth would shift in a matter of days or perhaps hours during such galactic events, causing positions of the north and south pole to change, further causing worldwide disaster, earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, and other natural disasters.
Accordingly, several eclectic authors claim that a major, world-changing event will take place in 2012!
Even the book “The Orion Prophecy” claims that the Earth’s magnetic field will reverse, which further supports the Polar Shift Theory besides the prediction of Merlin that also suggests a polar shift. NASA predicts that during 2012, as the Sun reaches the end of the current 11-year sunspot cycle, it will reverse its own magnetic poles, which may further amplify the effects of magnetic field on earth as harmful charged particles blast away from the sun (also known as solar storming).
Planet Eris/”Nibiru” or Planet-X and the Global warming: This theory suggests that the real cause of climate changes, volcanic activities, and intensification of the seismic activity etc. is the planet Eris’s getting closer to our solar system once in 3600 years, named as 2003-UB-313, which ultimately results in the melting of the glaciers! This Planet Eris or so called “Nibiru” was first observed in October 21, 2003, using 1.22 m Oschin telescope at Mount Palomar Observatory (California). It is said to have passed between Mars and Jupiter some 7200 years ago, which most probably had triggered the cataclysm “Noah’s flood” and again this will be at the close proximity to Earth between 2010 and 2012, which can cause massive melting of the glaciers, causing huge tidal waves and ultimately, the return of the Noah’s flood!
I Ching: Another sets of factors backing up this December 21, 2012 Doomsday is the I Ching prophecy. Despite the views of skeptics, the 5000 years old I Ching has become an oracle of the doomsday. The highs and lows of the I Ching graphs seems to have accurately corresponded to the fall of the roman empire, discover of the new world, and world wars of the 20th century, and the strangest things of all was, the time line came to an end to the exact specific date, December 21, 2012! Is it a coincidence that both prophecies of I Ching and Mayan Calendar came to the same exact date and time? In fact, many world’s religions and most famous prophets reference that something cataclysmic will happen around December 21, 2012. The medieval predictions of Merlin, The Book of Revelation, and the well-known Chinese Oracle of the “I Ching” all point to this specific date as the end of civilization.
The Bible Code & Nostradamus Prophesies: According to the certain algorithms of Bible code, a meteor,asteroid, or comet will soon collide with the Earth.
Everybody knows the Nostradamus prophesies, that have very accurately predicting many world leaders rising to power and major events in the past. His prophesies were accurate in predicting the demise of the World Trade Centers in 2001 as well.
Even the book “The Nostradamus Code” further speaks of a series of natural disasters caused by some kind of a “comet” and those studying the Prophecies of Nostradamus states that he might have further indicated the possibility of a “Third World War” where nuclear wars can create “comet-like” mass destructions everywhere.
So are we going to have a Third World War? At the current scenario, it seems we might have - proving the Nostradamus Prophesies.
Even the high-tech oracles which is not even human, i.e., “Web-Bots” are predicting the end of the world as December 21, 2012, besides the Mayan, I Ching, Merlin, Book Of Revelation, etc. Is it just a coincidence or a meaningless pattern of random events?
DO YOU BELIEVE IT?
There have been hundreds of “End Of The World” predictions in the past and none have come true till now. So, is this just another attempt to sell various stuffs related to Doomsday - December 21, 2012? Many people are in fact interested in knowing more about this.
The book, “Beyond 2012? reviews several theories, prophecies, and predictions related to this December 21, 2012, and in fact, the author has found that various authors have used “faulty information” or have “bent the truth” to fit their theories into this December 21, 2012 Doomsday.
It is a fact that the Mayan calendar ends on December 21, 2012, but should not we also consider that the initial date of the start of the Mayan civilization was 3113 B.C. and one complete cycle of the Mayan calendar would be 5,125 years in the future, i.e., Dec. 21, 2012, hence explaining why the Mayan calendar mysteriously ended on December 21, 2012! Even the Mayan priests who are currently living and working in Guatemala state that the so-called “Mayan Prophecy for 2012?, as stated by the new agers who have absolutely no idea of Mayan culture and religion, is a complete nonsense!
So why these touts and publicity of the End Of The World In December 21, 2012? Well, I’d like to ask you one thing: Doesn’t these “End Of The World” predictions sound interesting and curious enough for you to consider buying a book worth $20? Exactly! This is what I think these are targeted at!
All the oracles try to be as vague as possible, and even Nostradamus was right a lot of the time because whatever he predicted was so vague and so unclear that it could possibly mean millions of things. It is up to us how we interpret these vague prophecies, so it does not necessarily mean we are interpreting exactly what the oracle meant!
And yes, there are wars and rumors of wars, disasters and destructions, but this doesn’t mean the world will come to an end on December 21, 2012. Various calamities and natural disasters might come as they had been in the past, and if they again come in the future (which they will) we’d survived and we will survive! Various terrorist insurgence and major terrorist attacks may trigger another world war and hence numerous disasters may follow, but hey, doesn’t this sound like the world that we’re currently living in?
Throughout history from time to time, people believed that the end was near, and they were always wrong. The fact, however, remains that we can’t foresee the future, but what we can do is live with hopes of the future and optimism. We can only watch it with curiosity and skepticism and hope that all the oracles’ prophecy of doomsday are wrong.

Interesting article here. This news is old, but nice presentation of the facts. I don’t believe that our time here on Earth will end in 2012. If we push for positive change here on Earth (i.e. stop war, clean up the environment, create peace, etc.) - I think the “end of the Earth” may be pushed back to a much later date
Yes Exactly.
And if we cannot save our Earth from these ongoing war/terrorism and destructions by humans themselves, we may not even have to wait for December 21, 2012 for the end of the world!
Israel is attacking Iran! Iran will be attacking US! We’re gonna have World War III. Anti-christs are emerging. Oracles are TRUE!! The world’s gonna end…we’re all gonna DIE!!
@Fman:
LOL. So enjoy the rest of your time then dude instead of panicking and making others panic!
mmmmmm….. chocolate calendars
After reading through the article it seems so very near the same as the “History Channel” day of the Apocalypse. As was said earlier, old news.
Supplemental : I would rather like to wait for the proposed passing of the asteroid Apophis in 2036 ,which could come as close as 40,000 km ,within satellite orbit.
“Do You Believe December 21, 2012 Is The End Of The World?”
Of course not. In 999AD people panicked because “the world was ending”. Same for 1666 and Y2K. Did the world end? No.
Face it folks, people who want power have long known that if they can get you scared you’ll be likely to give them the authority to do whatever they want. The Hegelian Dialectic. The same new-age buffoons who sell you self-help books about channeling Atlantean gods and the like are laughing all the way to the bank on this one too.
Grow up. Think for yourselves. Remain skeptical of anyone who tries to invoke your fight or flight instinct.
And when 12/22/2012 rolls around, get up and enjoy your coffee like you’ve done every day prior.
We’re all gonna die!…..
You really need to do more research, there is a reason why the Mayan calendar ends on that day, and it does have to do with our alignment of the milky way center. The star system that the Mayan calender is based on, will no longer be a reliable source for a calender. This is because of the alignment. The Mayans knew their star would no longer be available, but they lacked the knowledge of Astronomy to know why. So they figured it would be the end.
Polar shift has happened many times in Earths history. Eris has little effect on us, Earth has dealt with rapidly changing climates all it’s life and will continue to do so. You need to understand that Earth has been through so much activity, and it is completely natural. Humans have just been lucky to live in a geologic down time, but has only been a fraction of a second of Earths life. I suggest you all go read and study Earth geologic time line. Also, Noah’s flood never happened. Go research the science behind what it would take for Noah’s flood to really happen, and you will see why it is not possible.
Funny article, and a very amusing read!
There are some that take this seriously but ultimately it has the appeal every doomsday fantasy has had since the dawn of civilization.
But, a few key notes:
1. The mayans were great time keepers but knew nothing of black holes.
Black holes spawn celestial events near their event horizons, usually in the order of 100s of kilometers (Schwarzschild radius).
We are roughly 26,000 light-years away from galactic centre and the black hole there - a slight bias there.
3. Pole shift has nothing to do with the mantle “shifting”. It is a change of the planet’s axis of rotation. Even if mistaken with True Polar Wander or Geomagnetic Reversal, none of which cause anything cataclysmic, let alone in “days or hours”.
4. Since there is no evidence of Planet X to even exist (or cousins of it), saying it will cause Noas flood II is unlikely, at best.
5. The bible code & Nostradamus:
Anybody who believes that the bible contains “code”, let alone “bible code algorithms”, is every salesman’s wet fantasy. This statement is insulting the intelligence of even idiots.
On Nostradamus. If one predicts an event that is feasible however unlikely, it will ultimately come true. Imagining wars is not stretching the imagination. Especially when it comes to a specific time.
Apart from these small points, it is a most delicious scenario that apart from the appalingly bad science peppered with religious nonsense - a very familiar cocktail.
I give it 6/10.
In grue,
H
I’m pretty sure the Nostradamus “predictions” of 9/11 were actually false and he didn’t predict anything. Not only that, but he’s had way more false predictions than true ones. Not to mention his “true” ones were simply vague statements that could be taken anyway you interpreted them.
Yes. Thank you all for the comments.
And one thing, since we’re talking about the future, i.e., December 21, 2012, we also are unsure if the oracles’ prophecy are 100% untrue and wrong. (If we can predict that all the oracles are 100% wrong, we’ll be the next oracle!
)
So, as I said earlier, we can only watch these things with curiosity and skepticism and hope that all the oracles’ prophecy of doomsday are wrong and hopefully, as Non-Serviam stated, “when 12/22/2012 rolls around, we’ll get up and enjoy our coffee like we’ve done every day prior.”
and “have a good laugh at those who took these things so seriously!”

Based on my knowledge about Astronomy, I honestly believe ‘End of the World’ is probably imminent and inevitable but definitely not as early as December 21, 2012!
@ Govind Sharma:
First of all, a warm welcome to my site.
Yes, I agree that End Of The World is probably inevitable as “nothing lasts forever.” It’s just the matter of time.
