                                              THE MAYAN CALENDAR MYSTERY





Kathie Garcia

How is it that we have lived in a kind of veiled ignorance for millennia, our books speaking of a history which is hardly ancient, but rather a drop in the bucket of time, accepting simplistic stories of creation and evolution and isolated from other life within the galaxy, barely learning with crude ships how to cross our own seas some few hundreds of years ago? And yet, here and there we have been able to pick up the pieces of lost civilizations whose people somehow seemed to be more in touch than ourselves with origins and endings and with the cyclical nature of time. Such a people were the Maya, whose astoundingly precise calendrical achievements brought them to calculate actual dates going as far back as 90 and 300 million years and into the future soon to be our present!

The Mayas believed, as did the Assyrians and other ancient peoples, that time was a way of measuring the soul of the Universe. The universe breathed in and breathed out. Life was created, destroyed, created anew. One cycle of "inhalation and exhalation" was called a "Great Cycle." The last Mayan "Great Cycle," 4 Ahau 8 Camku, began on August 13th, 3113 B.C. 4 Ahau Cambku is currently in a final phase called "Katun 19, 13 Ahau," which begun in 1992 and ends, with a prophecy of world destruction, on Dec. 23, 2012.

As Graham Hancock reminds us in Fingerprints of the Gods, "It’s been a good deal less than two centuries since the majority of Western intellectuals abandoned Bishop Usher’s opinion that the world was created in 4004 B.C. and accepted that it must be infinitely older than that. In plain English this means that the ancient Maya had a far more accurate understanding of the true immensity of geological time, and of the vast antiquity of our planet, than did anyone in Britain, Europe or North America until Darwin propounded the theory of evolution."

The current revival of interest in ancient civilizations is to be expected at the portals of a new age. Like returning to a childhood neighborhood that once encompassed the child’s world but now seems small, our concept of time and space is destined to change rapidly as we enter the Aquarian Age. Uranus in Aquarius will awaken us even as Neptune, which will enter Aquarius in 1998, will jostle our memory of a past long buried, not only in cities beneath the oceans, but in the collective unconscious.
