December 21, 2012: What Does It Really Mean?
by There are less than three years left until 2012. Is there any truth to the idea that it will be the end of time? This is my take on the spiritual aspect of the ancient Mayan calendar.
The number 21 is in reverse, 12. If you look at the component numbers, 2+1=3, the number 3 is in itself is a magical number. When you add this to the fact that 21 is 3×7, with 7 being one of the most sacred numbers, you begin to understand the significance of this number. In the Old Testament, 21 is the number of perfection, and is the number of the attributes of wisdom. The number 21 is the number of the World in Tarot, and is the last card of the major Arcana. In the Kabala, 21 represent the path of conciliation and the blessings of God.
Let’s not forget the number 20, of course. 20 is the number of man in many civilizations, including the Mayan. In the Tarot, 20 is symbolized in the meaning of the card, Judgement. It stands for awakening, realization, a call to action, and the realization of purpose in life. In the Kabala, 20 represent fundamental wisdom. So you have it, the spiritual wisdom of December 21, 2012. The signs are telling us to open our eyes and look around at the world. The truth is right there for all to see; yet so many are ignoring what is really important. We are so busy trying to perfect our lives with material objects, when in reality the real perfection lays within our spirit. The signs have been here all along; though only at this moment can we actually see a glimmer of the truth. So, the mystery behind the ancient Mayan calendar is not a mystery at all. It is a warning, a call for the people of this world to come together spiritually as a whole. If we do not prepare spiritually today, there may not be a chance for tomorrow.

the number 21 has been in my life for a long time now. In all my years in school i’ve been number 21 and 3 watches stopped either at 21 minutes or a 21st day. and i went to the 21st chapter in the new testament of the bible, and skipped 21 passages and i happened to get the apocalypse. And now this December 21 thing is freaking me out….

The Lord our Jesus Christ coming back very soon… everyone should be ready everyday of their lives. No one knows the time or date he will come back to take HIS children home. We should all be ready No MATTER what time of the day it is or the hour of theday!

ok it bothers me that no one nows whats going on. i have been raises an american but lived most of my life. i am not 16 years old and i have spent 12 years of my life in mexico. around yucatan to be specific. raised with the mayans. yes there is a calender and yes it means there will be a end to something in 2012 but it has nothing to do with the world ening. but everyone jumps to conclusion when they have not spoken with the mayans. the calander or the ruin chitichenitza. sorry if i spelt that wrong. but it states that, right now there are only a hand full of true mayans. yes there are mayans but they are cross breed with the meixican or another race. the calender tells us that by 2012 they true 100% breed mayans will be gone. its funny that everyone knows what 2012 is but they dont really know what it means. thank you.

i don\’t think it\’s the end of the world. that\’s not to say that NOTHING will happen on dec. 21, 2012. it MAY be the apocalypse. generally we think apocalpyse means the end of the world. but when you actually look it up it means \’to unveil\’ or \”revelation\’. and revelation means to reveal something. it\’s said that things will become known to mankind that we didn\’t know before. such as secrets of a \”higher being\” are revealed. whatever might happen is probably bigger than any of us can imagine. anyone interested in this should just look us the word apocalypes-even use Wikipedia. there is alot written about the end of the world but just read deeper into it. it might give you a different way of looking at what could happen in 2012.

@Ricka Mae Hermogenes No it doesn’t mean people will die. In no way am I saying, nor do I know, that the world will end on this day. I am simply expressing my opinion of what I feel is the meaning of the Mayan prophecy and the scientific end of the scope. Please do some research before you come to any conclusion. This is a natural evolution of the planets.
