Mayan Calendar







Our calandar had to be “adjusted” in the year 1752, ‘disposing’ of 11 days in September … they were not sure just how many days they neded to “jump”, but it was obvious that after 1,750+ years, the dates had “drifted” off of accuracy

Why Our Calendars Skipped 11 Days in 1752










Review. First, the linear calendar which we refer to, which points out the doomsday event as 12/21 (or 23)/2012, WRONG.

Gregorian calandar adjustment in the year 1752, got rid of 11 days in September, but it was obvious that after 1,750+ years, the dates gradually became inaccurate.  There should be 360days ina year, as well, corresponding with the circumference calculations of the Earth. 




The Maya year was divided into 18 months of 20 days each. This left five days without names or unlucky days at the end of the year. Each of the 18 uinals was dedicated to a specific deity and his corresponding festivals which related to the season of the year, the work to be done during the season and the nature of the season itself.

During the five useless or unnamed days, the Spanish chroniclers wrote that no action of any importance, even of sweeping the house or combing one's hair, was undertaken. It was believed that if one quarreled during those days, one would be destined to do so for the rest of the year! Woe to the poor person who happened to be born during one of the nameless days! His life was fated to be one of misery and unhappiness!


The days were designated in groups of 13. Each day had its specific omens, used for astrological divination. Twenty-eight of these 13-day weeks equals 364 days leaving an extra day at the end. When 13 years had elapsed, the number of these extra days would equal 13, called kin katun, the katun of the days.

The Tzolkin, the sacred year calendar, used for ceremonial and ritualistic purposes, lasted 260 days. The Tzolkin consisted of a smaller wheel of 13 glyphs rotated with a larger wheel of 20 days, resulting in the 260-day sacred year. Any given day represented a particular intermeshing of the HAAB Solar Year and the ritualistic Tzolkin resulting in a specific forecast. Jose Arguelles believes that through the Tzolkin the Maya were able to track and interpret sunspot cycles. He also claims that the Tzolkin provided the means to connect with two star systems, specifically the Pleiades and possibly Arcturus as well.



The two cyclical calendars, the Haab and the Tzolkin intercalibrated together created the Sacred Round of 52 years called the binding of the years. For only once in 52 years or 18,980 days could the combination of 13, 20 and 365 repeat itself. The 52-year cycle was sacred to all ancient peoples of Mesoamerica and a key factor in their understanding of past and future events.



Moira Timms sums up Jose Arguelles complex speculations: The Tzolkin can be regarded as a periodic table of galactic frequencies, because it is a fractal of the vague count of the 26,000-year precession of the equinoxes. The 26,000-year cycle of the sun's revolution around the Pleiades, the 26,000,000-year periodicity of extinctions reported in an extensive literature related to comet showers, and possible pole shift, as Earth recurrently passes through the Oort cloud, and other celestial cycles related by periods of time, the factor of which is 260.



The Spanish chroniclers called these kin katuns indictions. When four indictions have passed, in other words, 52 years, the year would begin with a year bearer of the same name. This cycle of 52 years was reached by the Aztecs and other peoples of Mesoamerica in the same manner. Five cycles of 52 years is 260 years, a Great Cycle, also reached by 13 x 20 and called Ahau Katun. Ahau is the word for chief, king,ruler. The Ahau was the key to the nature of the cycle.


 we are at the 270° point in Earth's precessional cycle, This harmonic transition point in our evolutionary cycle, the erect cross occurring now, has a similar characteristic as the last quarter moon in the lunar cycle. It is the "turning" that creates an "inner need to initiate change." In the agricultural cycle, this is where we plow under the crops and prepare new ground. Here we relinquish the stage setting we participate upon, to step from the facades and masks we hide behind, and look at and reveal our true selves, and embrace our commonality, our essence, our primordial spiritual origin. It is the resistance to this relinquishment and need to change that humanity currently fights. Fighting against this natural evolutionary transition is that which creates our current turmoil on Earth. Relinquishment of the false barriers, the externalized beliefs (manifest as political, religious, and financial structures) that perpetuate separation an subsequent anarchy is essential for us to make harmonious passage through this evolutionary portal. However, to assume this is going to occur in an instant or that all people will by some miracle acquiesce is, in my opinion, naiveté. More likely, many will continue to defend their separatist beliefs to a conflictual crisis point. As always the inner creates the outer and in this case our inner conflicts express as the conflicts in our external lives, even for those who do not realize this natural law. There will be some people who embrace their experience and resolve their inner conflicts moment-by-moment and create a harmonious change in the world, and there will be those who continue to defend their separatist beliefs / inner conflicts and dramatize them as discord in the world—the epitome of separation. The choice, as always, is ours.source
"...if you realize that the eventual human goal is to transcend the world of relativity to play in a realm of freedom, then plodding along attached to a theory is unfortunate. When the individual is able to enter a world in which the two aspects of yin and yang return to their original unity, the mission of these two symbols comes to an end." ~Masanobu Fukuoka
