Mayan Prophecies and Calendar

The Maya kept time with a combination of several cycles that meshedtogether to mark the movement of the sun, moon and Venus. Their ritual

calendar, known as the Tzolkin, was composed of 260 days. It pairs thenumbers from 1 through 13 with a sequence of the 20 day-names shownbelow. It works something like our days of the week pairing with the numbersof the month. Thus you might have 1-Imix (similar to Sunday the 1st) followedby 2-Ik (just as you would have Monday the 2nd). When you get to 13-Ben,the next day would start the numbers over again, thus 1-Ix, 2-Men etc. It willtake 260 days before the cycle gets back to 1-Imix again (13 x 20).

The symbols shown below represent the 20 day-names and are identified withtheir Yucatec names, pronunciation and approximate translation. The name,meaning and symbol can vary in different Maya languages. Also, each day

can be represented with more elaborate glyphs known as "Head Variants" - aformal writing system which can be loosely compared to our script alphabetversus our print alphabet.

The Classic Mayan civilization was unique and left us a way to incorporatehigher dimensional knowledge of time and creation by leaving us the Tzolkin

calendar. The Mayans invented the calendars we use today. The presentcalendars ends in the year 2012.

By tracking the movements of the Moon, Venus, and other heavenly bodies,the Mayans realized that there were cycles in the Cosmos. From this cametheir reckoning of time, and a calendar that accurately measures the solar year to within minutes.

The "Calendar Round" is like two gears that inter-mesh, one smaller than theother. One of the 'gears' is called the tzolkin, or Sacred Round. The other isthe haab, or Calendar Round.

The Tzolkin consisted of 13 months each 20 days long, and the Haab of 18months each 20 days long, and five rest days, thus making 365 days. Thedate was written using both rounds. For example, "6 lk 10 Camber" might bethe same as if we wrote "20 June 30 Gemini." (Haab - Calendar round / 20June, and Tzolkin - Sacred round / 30 Gemini.) As both thesewheels turnedso passed the Mayan years. Every 52 years the cycle began again. It was onone of these auspicious years that Cortez landed, thus giving credence to hisgod image.

Archeologists - claim that the Maya began counting time as of August 31,3114 B.C. This is called the zero year and is likened to January 1, AD. Alldates in the Long Count begin there, so the date of the beginning of this timecycle is written 13-0-0-0-0. That means 13 cycles of 400 years will havepassed before the next cycle begins, which is December 27, 2012. The new

cycle will begin as 1-0-0-0-0.



A day was called a "kin", and still is today. A 20 day month was a "uinal", onesolar year was a "tun", 20 tuns a "katun", and 20 katuns were a "baktun", 13of which take us back to the August 13, 3114 B.C. date.

Another notable date is 9-9-2-4-8 or July 29, 615 AD when the great King of

Palenque, Lord Pakal ascended to the throne.

These dates are carved in stone throughout the Mayan territory, and thenumbers can be seen by anyone. Using a vestigial system (they counted allthe fingers and toes) and only three characters (we use ten) the Maya couldstring together very large numbers, these were read from the bottom up. SoPakal ascended on 9-9-2-4-8, that would read:

9 baktuns - 3600 years9 katuns - 180 years2 tuns - 730 days

4 uinals - 80 days8 kin - 8 days

These numbers, if we begin at August 13, 3114 BC, will give us a date in the7th century that corresponds to the date Pakal took the throne in Palenque.

The Maya also understood the concept of zero, and wrote it like a shell.

With the new century almost upon us time takes on more meaning. January 1,2000 would be written 12-19-6-1-0 in the Long Count. The Sacred Round

would be 9 Ahau and the Haab designation would be 8 Kankin. Thus theCalendar Round would be 9 Ahau 8 Kankin.

So for the Maya there was a time for everything and every thing had it's placein time. The priest used this to their advantage; due to their abilities tointerpret the heavens and calendar, they could control the daily activities of the populace. Knowing when to plant, when to harvest, the rainy and dryseasons, etc. gave them total power and control. Their comprehension of time, seasons, and cycles was immense. If the reader is interested in further studies in this (admittedly, complex!) area, I recommend Linda Shele's finebooks, A Forest of Kings and The Blood of Kings.

The Wheels of Time ground exceeding fine for the Maya. To be able to predictthe seasons for farmers and astronomical events for religious rites, theyutilized a calendar of two meshing, repeating cycles. Maya mathematicianscould project this calendar millions of years in the past and the future, timehad no beginning, no end. The Mays recorded numbers with a system of barsand dots. a dot equals one, a bar stands for five. The smaller wheels together represent the 260-day Sacred Round; the inner wheel, with the numbers oneto thirteen, meshes with the glyphs for the 20 day names on the outer wheel. A section of a large wheel represents part of the 365-day year - 18 months of 20 days each (numbered 0-19). The five days remaining at year's end were

considered evil. In the diagram, the day shown is read 4 Ahua 8 Cumka. Asthe wheels turn in the direction of the arrows, in four days it will read 8 Kan 12



Cumku. Any day calculated on these cycles would not repeat for 18,980 days- 52 years.

A steadily quickening flow of earth changes has become so apparent in 1995that even traditional media are paying attention. Earth transformation was thecause of celebration of the Harmonic Convergence initiated by Jose &Lloydine Arguelles in August, 1987, and the Time Shift on July 26, 1992. TheTime Shift marked the time in history when the planet entered a newsequencing of energy that after a magnetic pole shift in 2000, will be completein December, 2012. With the energy sequencing complete in 2012, TimeshipEarth will launch her voyage into fourth dimensional time in 2013.

The map of planetary transformation into a new dimensional time stream wasplotted in the Mayan calendar and interpreted by Jose & Lloydine in theDreamspell. In the 1950s, Euro-American astronomers ran headlong into thestunning reality that Native Americans were masters of a sophisticatedastronomy previously unrecognized. Since the New World was conquered,the Europeans had believed that Native Americans were ignorant of astronomy. In fact, the Native American concept was completely different thanthe European and thus not recognized. Where European astronomers tracked

large objects, such as the sun and moon, in direct courses, the Native Americans tracked small objects relative to large objects, a far more complexand accurate system. The two systems perceived the heavens from suchradically different view points, that the Europeans did not recognize the Native American system as astronomy.

THE MAYAN CALENDAR



The Ancient Maya, and the remains of their cosmic culture, are stillenshrouded in mystery and confusion. To this day, much of whatarcheologists base their findings upon is founded on guesses, not facts.Theories and speculations fill the history books. It looks like we may never understand what the Maya are saying to us. Like a giant cosmic joke, theriddles and puzzles left behind by the Maya are still as much of a mysterytoday, as they were when they were first discovered by the Spanish.

Maybe understanding the Tzolk'in with only the mental body was not theapproach the Mayas themselves intended. As we can see, the archeologistsare still guessing, with decades of research behind them. If the Maya intendedus to understand their knowledge of the universe, they would have to leaveremains behind that would bridge all cultures, languages, and all levels of education. This is what the Maya have done. Without a doubt I can tell youthe knowledge of the cosmos is available to all. It is available to those whocan open their hearts to the wonder and curiosity of the universe once again.The encoding of the calendar is intuitive and is remembered with feelings. It isalso very mental and can be learned with study. As daykeeper, Hunbatz Menhas told me, we need to use all our bodies to remember everything. Thephysical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies are needed. Without desire,

wonder and curiosity there is no intention to remember. Without study there isno understanding. To reconnect to the cosmos and receive information from



the Sun, as the Maya do, one must not only place intention by physical study,but desire to remember! As we move our physical bodies into action to study,the intuitive side will just kick in, but desire is most important and quiteessential. That's it! This is what the Maya intended.

The calendar with it's twenty Sun/glyphs are cosmic memory activation toolsthat intuitively interacts with your body's memory, your DNA. The calendar isnot only an incredibly accurate map of the cycles of the cosmos, but is also atool to accelerate and activate your memory into recalling the truth behind themystery of the cosmos. Each glyph is charged with precise information in theform of feelings or emotions to help active you in a very personal andindividual way. Each person will remember their own personal perspective of the truth based on their place in the calendar system. This is not somethingyou need to learn, it is something you will remember.

So here we are, all of us just itching to remember. We have a haunting feeling

of something forgotten looming just out of reach, lying just beyond the veil of our own created, limiting reality. I am asking you to have to courage to plowthought this barrier of limitation and remember the totality of who you are, tolive in your own personal integrity.

You will need to commit to this for a while. Memory activation does not createinstant results. Activation takes place in stages and layers. At first you will findthe sacred calendar quite mental. If you find yourself mentally fuzzing outwhen you begin to place your attention on these teachings, understand thatthis is a common problem. You are just coming face to face with your ownpersonal limitation program. You are hitting a time/space dimensional barrier and your body is saying ôI can't do this, I can't remember everything. I can'tbe limitless." I say you can, and you will. It is you destiny to do so.

This is a new year challenge. Commit yourself to remembering the totality of who you are by following these calendars for one earth cycle, just a short 365days. Place your intention for just a few minutes every day on the Mayan dayinstead of the linear Gregorian day. Get your body cycling with the cosmosagain, instead of the ticking clock. Move into the undulating, spiraling,ascending energy of the cosmos. Watch the sun rise and set. Watch themoon rise and set. Soon you will begin to dream with more detail. You will feel

more deeply. Understand more clearly. You will feel a part of a much bigger whole. You will remember little pieces of information. They will just pop intoyou head. If this sounds good to you, lets get started.

The Basics of the Mayan Calendar

The Maya understood 17 different Calendars based on the Cosmos. Some of these calendars go back as far as ten million years and are so difficult that

you would need an astronomer, astrologer, geologist, and a mathematician just to work out the calculations. Lucky for us we only need to work with three



of these calendars. The calendars that are most important to beings of earthare the Haab, the Tun-Uc and the Tzolk'in. The Tzolk'in is the most importantand the one with the most influence.

The Haab is based in the cycles of earth. It has 360 + 5 days, totaling 365

days. The Haab uses 18 months with 20 days in each month. There is a 19thmonth called a Vayeb and uses the 5 extra days. Each month has it's ownname/glyph. Each day uses a sacred sun/glyph.

The Tun-Uc is the moon calendar. It uses 28 day cycles that mirrors thewomen's moon cycle. This cycle of the moon is broken down into 4 smaller cycles, of 7 day each. These smaller cycles are the four phases of mooncycle. Portal days (p), on the calendar provided marks days usingmathematics of 28 and their fore have a connection with the moon cycles.

The Tzolk'in is the Sacred calendar of the Maya and is based on the cycles of

the Pleiadies. The cycle of the Pleiadies uses 26,000 years, but is reflected inthe calendar we are using by encompassing 260 days. It uses the sacrednumbers 13 and 20. The 13 represents the numbers and 20 represents thesun/glyphs. The Tzolk'in has four smaller cycles called seasons of 65 dayseach guarded by the four suns of Chicchan, Oc, Men and Ahau. There arealso Portal days within the Tzolkin that create a double helix pattern using 52days and the mathematics of 28. This sacred calendar is still being used for divination by the traditional Maya all over the Yucatan, Guatemala, andBelize, and Honduras.

The Tzolkin calendar was meshed with a 365-day solar cycle called the"Haab". The calendar consisted of 18 months with 20 days (numbered 0-19)and a short "month" of only 5 days that was called the Wayeb and wasconsidered to be a dangerous time. It took 52 years for the Tzolkin and Haabcalendars to move through a complete cycle.

These are the Mayan words for periods of time: Day = Kin (keen)Month of 20 days = Uinal (wee nal)Year of 360 days = Tun (toon)20 Tuns = K'atun (k' ah toon)20 K'atuns = Baktun (bock toon)

During their stay on Earth the Cosmic Maya carried the burden of time.Cosmicly aware of the cycles of time, they were bound, as we are, by walkingthrough time in a linear fashion. They were aware that beings of Earth hadlost the natural ability to ride the cycles of time/light/energy, to time travel. It isalso known by the Cosmic Maya that this present linear fashion of time willtransform into multidimensionality, and will not be limited to linear time onEarth much longer. Isn't this the reason we came here to remember and towitness this event? Do you remember?

Mayan Calendars



Maya priests observed the positions of the sun, moon, and stars. They madetables predicting eclipses and the orbit of the planet Venus.

The priests also used mathematics and astronomy to develop two kinds of calendars. One was a sacred almanac of 260 days. Each day was namedwith one of 20 day names and a number from 1 to 13. Each of the 20 daynames had a god or goddess associated with it.

The priests predicted good or bad luck by studying the combinations of godsor goddesses and numbers. The Maya also had a calendar of 365 days,based on the orbit of the earth around the sun. These days were divided into18 months of 20 days each, plus 5 days at the end of the year.

The Maya considered these last 5 days of the year to be extremely unlucky.During that period they fasted, made many sacrifices, and avoidedunnecessary work.

The Maya Indians of southern Mexico and Central America used mathematicsand astronomical observations to formulate two kinds of calendars--a sacredalmanac of 260 days and a solar calendar of 365 days.

Jose Arguelles

Born of Mexican-American descent, the Mayan calendar became a childhoodpassion for Jose Arguelles in the 1950s during the decade in whichastronomers began to realize that Native Americans practiced a sophisticatedastronomy. After more than 30 years of research, he is known by many asone of the world's foremost authorities of the Mayan calendar. Theoverwhelming evidence of Mayan prophecy in the last decade of the millennia

supports the accuracy of the calendar and the Arguelles' interpretation of theDreamspell and Time Shift of July 26, 1992. After perceiving the final



sequencing of the Mayan calendar in 1987, the Time Shift in 1992 was anadjustment of the annual calendar's be ginning to July 26, so that theDreamspell New Year falls on that date each year.

Since the codices of the Maya were destroyed in the European Conquest, the

tables of dates and interpretations of codes were mostly destroyed. The fewsurviving codices are still "owned" by European museums and removed fromthe Maya, who have the cultural framework for interpreting them. During the500 years since the Conquest, various Mayan tribes have adopted variousnew- year dates and interpretations. In 1992, the University of Guatemalaidentified the July 26 date based on an eclipse of July 11, 1991 and theDresden Codex. The Arguelles' interpreted that date as the new beginning of the solar year. The month of July has heralded major earth changes andastronomical events since 1992. The most devastating storm season inhistory started with Hurricane Andrew immediately after the Time Shift in1992.

The flooding of the American Midwest broke all records in July, 1993. In July1994, the Comet Shoemaker -Levy collided with Jupiter. In July, 1995, theComet Hale-Bopp became visible near Jupiter on amateur telescopes.

Photographs of this comet reveal a spiral formation at times and a square inthe comet at other times. Reports of this comet were rumored as far back as1985 from military sources, that it came close enough to be seen by amateursin July may be a measure of a larger timing cycle. The sheer weight of physical evidence leans heavily towards the accuracy of Jose and Lloydine'sJuly 26, 1992 date as the point when a new sequencing of planetary time and,therefore events, accelerated.

Equating an end-date for the Mayan calendar round with a date in theEuropean-based Gregorian system has been a heartbreaker for astronomers.Since the European and Native American systems are so different, the onlytruly accurate method of synchronizing the two was to identify a significantastronomical event, such as an eclipse, recorded on both calendars. This hasbeen impossible due to differences in locations and calendars until July 11,1991. "In 755 A.D. Maya Priests prophesied the total solar eclipse of July 11,1991 would herald two life altering events for humankind: Cosmic Awareness

and Earth Changes. Shortly after 1:00 P.M., on July 11th, the prophecy beganunfolding.

Beneath the eclipse of the century, that Mayas had labeled 'The Sixth Sun', asilvery disc shaped object hovered silently above the world's larg est city. 17different people, unknown to each other, in deferent locations of Mexico City,videotaped the structured ship - Cosmic Awareness had begun.

The wave of UFO activity continued in the skies over Mexico and, due to thevideo camcorder, became the most documented mass sighting ever.

For months, a team of international investigators from the U.S., Mexico, andJapan followed the trail of the UFO sightings through the volcano zone to



Mount Popocateptl, the fourth largest volcano in the world... Once dormant...Now awakening...' (Messengers of Destiny Video, Genesis Ill).

Based on the July, 1991 eclipse, Jose & Lloydine identified the July 26, 1992,Time Shift. Using a day-by-day count, Euro-American astronomers could

finally synchronize their calendars with the Maya Priests. The visitors from thesky that Jose called the Galactic Maya in 'The Mayan Factor', had made goodon their promise to return on that date and evidenced the reality of galacticculture that Jose prophesied in his 1988 letter to the World Community after Harmonic Convergence.

December 2012 is the end-date projected by Jose & Lloydine for the Mayancalendar. With many astronomers and scientists now paying attention to theMayan calendar, much debate has brewed over its end-date; this deservessome explanation.

Without diverting to the many internal flaws and confusions of the EuropeanGregorian calendar, neither of these issues are relevant to the Mayancalendar, seventeen solar years on the Mayan cal-endar is seventeen solar years, no matter what name is given the year in the Gregorian calendar.

No matter what the number of the year on the Gregorian calendar may be, aday-by-day count references real astronomical events in solar days,bypassing the problem of year names in the Gregorian system. The only truepoint for correlating the two calendars is an astronomical event, which wasidentified by the July 11, 1991 eclipse. It is a fact that major discrepancies inyear counts exist in the Gregorian calendar due to its overlapping the Juliancalendar. But this has nothing to do with the internal functions of the Mayancalendar.

CALENDAR SPIRALS

Sequences and cycles are readily described as spirals in the Dreamspell andsacred geometries. The numbers of the Pythagorean Lambdoma are 1, 1, 1, 1an 1, 2, 3, 4. This is an obvious sequencing that can be understood in cycles.The Fibonacci spiral is fundame tal to all life forms. The Fibonacci is a simplematrix that starts with 1 then adds 1 to get a sum of 2 the adds the previousnumber back into itself to get a sum of 3 (I +2=3) then repeats that sequenceto get a ne sum of 5 (3+2=5). Primary numbers of the Fibonacci on thenumber 1 carried to 13 places are: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233.

Solar systems are designed by nature in Fibonacci spirals as are humanhands, sunflowers, and shells. This sequencing is a fundamental design tool

of Creation Spectacular patterns are found by applying the Fibonacci spiral tokey numbers of the Mayan calendar: 20, 13 and 18. The sacred calendar



(Tzolkin) uses 20 and 13 The civil calendar (Haab) uses 20 and 18. Thecommon denominator of both is 20. 1 applied the Fibonacci sequence to thenumber 20 and carried the sequence out to 26 places. Then I multiplied eachnumber of th sequence by 13 then divided it by 18 and discovered that theresults of these factors shifted and started new internal sequencing at the

13th place in each sequence. The 12th place completed a sequence and the13th started a new sequence internally.

The 12th glyph of the Dreamspell is 'Human' and the 13th glyph is"Skywalker". The sacred calendar is 260 days and the civil calendar is 360days with 5 unlucky days that are not counted. The Maya were well awarethat a solar system is 365 days but chose to memorialize the number 360.Their simultaneous use of two calendars with astrology arrayed sets of ratiosand sequences yet accounted for each day of the year in a way utterly foreignto the European calendar. The number 360 symbolizes space in a 360-degreecircle or sphere. When a 360-day civil calendar symbolizing space is arrayed

with a 260-day sacred calendar symbolizing fourth dimensional time, time-space ratios (coordinates) are discovered. The civil and sacred calendarssynchronize every 52 years, so 52 is a central fractal of the calendars.

The number 20 used in a Fibonacci matrix and factored with 13 and 18produces internal sequences and cycles in the 12th and 13th places. With 12solar months to 13 lunar months, the 12:13 relationship is part of nature'splanetary design.

END DATES

There have been many projected dates for the ending of the Mayan calendar,ranging from 1957 to 2050. The 2012 end-date was defined by the ThompsonProjection. Thompson's projection used a day-by-day count to cross-reference the Mayan to the European calendar rather than a count of years.This bypassed the problem of year names in the Gregorian system. Jose &

Lloydine agreed with Thompson's 2012 date. More importantly, the 2012 dateworks with the hard facts evidenced by the accuracy of the July 26, 1992Time Shift. Terence McKenna and Peter Meyer's Timewave Zero softwarethat graphs time as a fractal demonstrates by graph the accuracy of thewinter solstice (21.12) of 2012 as the correct end-date of the Mayancalendar with graph anomalies appearing in the months of July.

Beyond the stargates of this planet and solar system lies a cosmic scheme of underlying order in which the earth's flow of history unfolds in patterns of time.Galactic travelers have long traversed the corridors of time and space, andperi odically visited this solar system. The evidence of archaeological ruins on

Mars and the moon are mute testimony to the presence of intelligent buildersin now ancient history. The evidence is clear. Someone with advanced



knowledge of astronomy has visited peoples of this planet and left calendarsas a signature note. This is discovered in correspondences of worldcalendars: Mayan, Tibetan, African, Vedic, and Hebraic. Similar calendar schemes are found in each of these cultures.

The European calendar mandated by Pope Gregory in 1583 is the only worldcalendar that did not intercalate at least two celestial cycles. The Hebraiccalendar acquired by Enoch after he was translated in a beam of lightintercalated solar and lunar cycles in a fashion similar to the Maya. TheDogon in Africa were given four calendars by visitors from Sirius B: Solar,lunar, Venusian, and civil. The Tibetan calendar is so similar to the Mayanthat traditional scholars now speculate that they share a common origin. TheVedic calendar is based on cosmic cycles, or Yugas. An ancient Hinduastrology used 27 houses of 13 degrees 20 minutes, which are key numbersin the Mayan calendar.

These calendars provided a time management tool that synchronizedplanetary cycles with visits from the stars. The Dogon calendar identified the12 or 13th Century as the date of last visit; the Mayan calendar identified July11, 1991, as an upcoming date of visit. Both of these dates coincided withsignificant planetary cycles.

The cultures visited by the Galactic Maya were shamanic. Ancient Hebraicinstructions for building altars and using precious and semiprecious stonesare identical to those used by Native Americans. The ancient Tibetans wereshamanic. The Dogon and Maya are shamanic. The Galactic Maya wereshamanic.

Ancient Hebraic instructions for building altars and using precious andsemiprecious stones are identical to those used by Native Americans. Theancient Tibetans were shamanic. The Galactic Maya were shamans of planetary sciences, Cosmic Shamans who understood and utilized the cosmicflow of events. Their secrets were left with shaman in cultures who held thekeys of their sciences. Until now the shaman's craft has appeared assuperstition that scattered before the power of European-based science. Butthat same science has now brought planet to her knees in destruction of thebiosphere.

NOW IS THE TIME

The Cosmic Shaman of galactic culture returned from the sky on July 11,1991 to signal the time. Dialogs with extraterrestrials and those they came toawaken contain many keys that unlock the calendars and heal the planet.

One of the keys came out of an extraterrestrial contact when the contacteeasked how the craft operated. He was told that the extraterrestrial craft



operated on the principles of sequences per cycle. That's a pretty gooddefinition of time and ties into the reports that many ETs are time travelers.

The premise of the Mayan calendar was sequences and cycles in planetaryand galactic events. The Dreamspell is a galactic-solar calendar of cosmic

relationships as they relate to planets and life forms. The Mayan concept of time was radically different than the European and particularly the Euro- American with its growing perception of time as a digital readout. The Mayancalendar was a self evidencing model of reality that encompassed an array of sequences and cycles. The Dreamspell, evolved from the Mayan calendar,crests the timewave in a magniflcent solar spiral Timeship Earth 2013.

Ancient Maya Knowledge for This Prophetic Time

Date: November 2, 2002

Place: American Museum of Natural History, New York CitySpeakers: Mayan Mam Elders from the highlands of Guatemala - Keepers of Records and Time



Gerardo Kanek Barrios

Mercedes Barrios Longfellow

Who are the Elders?

The Elders are the people who hold the knowledge and the prophecies. Theycan be children or adults. They can be born into any family. They were notallowed to comment on any of their prophecies until now. They know how togather the knowledge in the pyramids which are on a vortex.

Over 20 years ago, Gerardo Barrios began a quest to compare the ancientMaya calendars. He traveled to different villages in Guatemala, Mexico,Belize, Salvador and Honduras searching for the most traditional Maya eldersof the different nations of the Maya people. These elders have retained

knowledge of the calendars since the beginning of their history. Some of these elders live in remote, isolated villages that required days of walking



through the woods on footpaths. Some are still living in caverns. Gerardowanted to know if their calendars were all using the same count. With minor variations for language and names, he discovered they were.

As a part of this search, in 1984 he and 9 other Maya Elders traveled to the

Cuchumatanes Sierra of Guatemala to a village where the traditional MayaElders have dedicated their lives to keeping the sacred Nimajay (house of prayer) fire for over 1000 years. They maintain this fire 24 hours a day as aprayer of peace to the earth and its inhabitants. After five days' walk throughdeep forest, they reached this village. The Elders there had known throughtheir own visions that this group was coming and greeted them. Of the tenmen who had journeyed there, five were called into the Nimajay. Gerardo wasone of these.

Inside the Nimajay, the Chimbam (higher authority) Elder took Gerardo asideand talked to him. In this and two later visits, he introduced Gerardo to the

prophecy of the Feathered Serpent Kukulkan, a snake-like sacred earthenergy that moves through the land. The Maya Elder who had begun to workwith Gerardo explained how this energy arises periodically and showed himon their calendar and on a map that Gerardo had brought with him when andwhere it had appeared.

Later, when Gerardo tracked these times and places through history, he foundevents such as the great spiritual awakening of Tibet in the 50's, the anti-Vietnam War movement of the 60's, and people such as Martin Luther King.These events correlated with the ancient prophecies.

The Chimbam Elder's revelations and instructions would profoundly affect thecourse of Gerardo's life. He began the work assigned to him.

The story continues with a second thread.

As an adult, Mercedes had moved to the United States from Guatemala. After living here for awhile, she heard the call of her ancestry to return to her nativecountry and her roots there. She searched for the Elders she had once knownas a child and young person. After two years' work she met Gerardo. He toldher his story and the prophecy and they began to work together as friends

and colleagues.

Gerardo and Mercedes have devoted their lives to sharing the ancestralknowledge. Part of this is the teaching of the Maya Calendars, of which thereare 20. Only 15 of them may be spoken of at this time.

Mayan Calendars

Mayans track 20 different cycles (calendars) of varying durations, which haveto do with plants, humans, prophecies, numerics, solar system, galaxy,

universe and the divine to name a few. There are a total of 20 calendars. The20 calendars can be used to understand our mission in this dimension.



One of the calendars is the sacred CHOLQIJ - HUMAN - calendar. Gerardoand Mercedes share the commitment to teach this Calendar now, during thiscritical time of change when Mother Earth is cleansing from the damagehumanity has caused.

How can this calendar be of help to us now? This calendar represents 13forces and 20 energies. Each day has a glyph (an energy) and a number (aforce). The glyphs of the 20 days resonate with a particular animal or bird aswell. Studying the energy in association with its force in sequence guides usto a deeper understanding of the different vibration of each day.

The human calendar has 260 day cycles. 13 X 20 = 260 days = 9 months =gestation period for a human being. No two days have the same force or energy. The calendar has a perfect count. It represents the energiesgoverning the human body. It has been in existence for millions of years. It isactually used in glyph form and has been since the beginning of time. The

Elders say that the first wise humans visualized cycles of life that repeat -some short and some extremely long.

The calendar can be used to plan certain activities. Certain days empower acertain energy and other diminish the energy. Some days are good for restingand so on.

We begin to enter into it. Holding awareness of it, we find which times arepropitious to accomplish tasks at hand and which times we need to avoidtraps and dangers. Holding consciousness of the energy of the day deepensour awareness of the Earth and brings us in contact with ourselves as beingsin synchronicity with Earth's rhythms. We sense our place here and the placeof other human beings, other animals and plants, the other living kingdomswith whom we share our planet. We naturally, then, become more aware of ourselves as caretakers of the Earth, in harmony with Her, compassionatelyenvisioning not only what we need, but the balance of needs of all beings inthis and future times.

According to Maya Cosmovision, as we become aware of the differentvibrations of the Earth we will become connected with all Life. Through thisconnection, we have the potential to heal humanity and Mother Earth. The

CHOLQIJ calendar is one of the precious tools we now have to change howwe are dreaming the world and the future.

Examples of the calendar: 9/11/2001 (The terrorist attack on the World TradeCenter) mapped to 6 IMOX which represents change in the physical world.US attacked Afganistan on 6 KIEJ meaning to 'settle' or 'balance'.

The Gregorian calendar is not in harmony with the forces of nature.

The original Egyptian calendar was. But the Egyptian calendar was later modified by the Greeks/Spartan and then the Romans etc. 30 yrs after the

birth of Christ, the calendar was off by 12 days. They had a council to bring itback(Julian). In 1582 it was again out of line and Pope Gregory brought in the



best astronomers to align it once again. It still suffer changes. The RussianOrthodox did not accept this calendar until much later.

The Mayan calendar will need to be adjusted by one day in 380,000 years.

The Aztecs use different glyphs and is basically the same as the Mayan onlyslightly less evolved. Their glyphs are better in their representations of theenergies though.

The Earth changes will continue until 2012. The Elders say that theprocess can be easy and aligned or can be catastrophic. Human energywill decide this.

Time and the calendar begin on the equinox of 3/21.

There had been a cycle of darkness that lasted 468 years (9 X 52) and ended

on 3/30/1993.

We are now in a transition period called the 'Cycle of the merge of the darkand the light.' During this time humanity is going through great transition.

The cycle of light will come in full force on 12/21/2012.

This is considered the cycle of 13 lights and 13 heavens.

Many cycles begin on that same date.

Mother Earth as a living entity will transcend to another level or frequency or consciousness and a new and special era will begin.

The preparation for this is now in the womb of the Earth so to speak andthe process of change is bringing transendental manifestations.

This new era will be very positive. "Let all beings rise. Let not one or twostay behind".

The times are here for total brotherhood.

The spirit beings, different philosophies, different races must begin toweave together all knowledge to create the tapestry of harmony andbalance. We are all seeing the evidence of this shift in humanconsciousness now.

The spiritual energies/knowledge have been moving from Tibet over to the Americas (not just the US, North and South America) since 1948.

The Elders or many indigenous tribes have been monitoring and assisting it.There has been historical evidence of its movement.



For instance, it left Tibet in 1948 and in 1950 the Chinese invaded. It reachedNorth America in the sixties and we experienced the Civil Rights movements -one pacifist (Dr King) and one more revolutionary (Malcolm X and thePanthers). The 2 processes settled and harmonized into a civil process.

The various revolutions in South America also directly coincided with thepassage of the energies through those areas.

This movement of many energies has provoked earthquakes, civil wars,revolutions.

It moved from Tibet through the mountain ranges of Asia, through Russia,over the Bearing Straits through Alaska, Sierra Madres ... the Andes in South America.

When it arrived in Panama, there was a backlash due to the Panama Canal

(they cut through the mountain to build the Canal) and this caused moreviolence in the area in the early 90's (Sandanistas, massacres in Guatemala,Mexico separatist movement).

The elders ordered much spiritual work bringing together many indigenoustribes from many countries to perform "planetary acupuncture".

In 1997 the energy moved into the Amazon in Columbia.

Its final destination is Lake Titicaca. After which, according to the prophecies,

harmony and unity will come greater to the hearts of humanity.

The ceremonial works have brought together Elders from the Innuits of Alaskaand Elders from tribes in South and Central America.

They now see all of the energies as one and the ceremonial works as beingvery similar. They had never worked together in this way before.

There are physical as well as sacred technologies used in the ceremoniesthat are very powerful. The elders can see the results of this work.

Quetzalcoatl, the feathered or plumed serpent, represents kundalini which isthe movement of energy from the Earth to the base of the spine then up thespine. This serpent/fire represents transendence.

Quetzalcoatl, "The whole American continent is represented by an eagle or condor. It (America) has been called to take the torch for these times. Onewing represents the physical and the other the material. The spiritual wingmust continue to lift. When balance comse of both wings, then America willcome unto it's own bringing the spiritual and material resources together."

Dimensions and Beings:

There are 13 dimensions above us and 9 below. These dimensions also workwith time. Time works at different rates in different vibrations.

If you spend one day in a higher dimension you would come back one year later. If we go lower, time is more dense.

Mayans visit other levels physically. There are physical portals in manyplaces.

Humanoid beings exist in higher dimensions. They are somewhat superior tous. The lecturer has only visited one level higher (in the physical). More

evolved sun systems have more evolved beings. Our sun is in its first stage of evolution. Super beings do not interfere in either a positive or negative way.They allow us to follow our process. There is communication with people thatare very evolved in this dimension but they don't interfere.

Ancient Records

Based on prophecy, the Mayan priests knew the Christians to burn all of their physical records so the most superior Elders hid them. There still exist today,in certain groups with unbroken lineages. Sacred objects, guardians of energy, sacred music, guardians of technological objects etc. Nothing has

been lost.



Ancient Technologies

The Tibetans had advanced technologies. Humanity is still not evolvedenough today to use some of these technologies. The elders have knownabout - magnetic recording, jet propulsion, radar, and television. The Mayans

had radio communication in the Stone Age.

The Future of the Mayan People

We are the Maya of yesterday, the Maya of today and we will be the Mayaof tomorrow.
