The Mayan and Other Ancient Calendars by Geoff Stray: (at Amazon.com)

or from Amazon.co.uk

Book Description
The only small, popular book on the important subject of ancient calendars.

This book contains updates to Beyond 2012!

The study of heavenly cycles is common to most ancient cultures. The ancient Egyptians, Chinese, and Babylonians all tried to make sense of the year. But it fell to the later Mesoamerican Maya to create a series of calendars that could be cross referenced. In doing so, the Maya discovered many strange numerical harmonics. Their lunar calendar was extremely accurate—far more so than the Greek Metonic cycle; they tracked Venus to an accuracy of less than a day in five hundred years and their tables could have been used to predict eclipses seven hundred years in the future. This book will provide a much needed compact guide to the Mayan calendar systems as well as covering the essentials of calendar development throughout the world.

What the 2012 researchers say:

John Major Jenkins, author of Maya Cosmogenesis 2012 and Galactic Alignment:

"!It looks great. Nice quality designs and art, this book should really move things forward on the 2012 discussion. I'm also happy that you allowed me to contribute the preface. I'm intrigued with your concluding chapters, a synthesis of the most cogent theories to arrive at a compelling meta-view of the entire field."

Vincent Bridges, co-author of The Mysteries of the Great Cross of Hendaye:

"Dude, what an incredible piece of work... Definitely worth many doffings of the old Phrygian cap...over all it is an honest masterpiece. I've read it twice straight through, and some portions several times more, and I must say that you are about as right as it is possible to be on this subject. Simply and overwhelmingly impressive. Everyone, all the damn whackos, need to read your book..."

Zyzygyz, moderator and owner of Time Wave Zero 2012 discussion group:

"...BEYOND 2012 is a virtual Ph.D. dissertation on just about every subject related to 2012 - written in layman's language with lots of illustrations, and even plates (one of my charts even made it as a color plate!) for easy and entertaining reading. I'm familiar with Geoff's dedication to "getting things right", but still I'm amazed that he was able to put this kind of comprehensive knowledge together, and to present such a cogent argument that there seems to be something special about 2012 that warrants close attention...." read whole review here.

Jonathan Bethel, webmaster of Omega Point Institute and 2012eschaton.com: 

The book is fantastic, man!!! Unbelievable!!! *applauds* *applauds*. I just started it and from leafing through it, I love it already!!  In fact, I came to a knowledge of 2012, first thru McKenna and later through the Maya Calendar....P.S.  On further perusal of your new book, I love it even more…  Great Book!!!!  My friend David is waiting in anticipation.

Joel Keene, author of Cosmic Locusts, The 2012 Convergence of Nostradamian, Mayan & Biblical Prophecy:

"...your book is blowing me away.  I will have to read small bits at a time to keep from being overwhelmed."

DUTCH INTRODUCTION NEW!!

Introduction:

This website has been set up as a data-base for information about the year 2012 ( not including Olympic games and political candidates for elections and similar trivia). In the next few years, there is bound to be speculation over the possible meaning of the so-called "end of the Mayan calendar", and there are already various theories circulating, from the catastrophic to the ecstatic. In 1999, I started circulating a booklet called Beyond 2012, listing  information, theories and ideas from diverse sources which predict 2012 as an evolutionary pinnacle; a leap in consciousness; a dimensional shift; an end of linear time; an encounter with an asteroid; mass genetic mutation from solar or cosmic rays; etc. The ideas come from scientists, artists, mystics, alternative Egyptologists, prophets, divinatory systems, shamanic psychonauts, mythology, and Mesoamerican research. It was designed to be a brief, easy-to-read summary, with references, to promote more research.

Although much of the information collated in Beyond 2012 has been produced to try and explain the Mayan end-point, some of it originated before the Mayan Long Count was known about, outside archaeological circles. For example, the McKenna brothers, who found a complex fractal "timewave" encoded in the ancient Chinese I Ching oracle, discovered its 2012-termination point several years before they heard anything about the Mayan Long Count. I had read and studied the McKennas' work several years before I had heard that the Mayan Long Count ended in 2012, and it was this synchronicity which made 2012 an area of urgent research for me. Here is a more detailed account;

 

                                            2012:  THE EMERGENCE OF AN ENIGMA

 

I first became fascinated with 2012 in 1981, when I heard about a book by Terrence and Dennis McKenna, called The Invisible Landscape. It took me 10 months to get hold of the book, and I had to read it twice before I began to understand it, after becoming more acquainted with advanced neurochemistry.
 
For those of you who may not know the story: In 1971, the McKenna brothers went down to a remote part of the Amazon jungle to investigate rumours that the shamans performed magic using a "violet psychofluid" - a kind of ectoplasm which pours from all orifices and the skin, following ingestion of a hallucinogenic brew called   ayahuasca (only visible to others who've taken the brew). They ended up taking a different combination of sacred plants, but which contained the same active ingredients as ayahuasca - dimethyltryptamine, and harmine (a beta-carboline) - both of which are closely related to the natural secretions of the pineal gland (especially in advanced meditators).
 
After a shared hallucinatory episode, the brothers returned to the USA to develop the insights they had in the Amazon. They were convinced that the ancient Chinese oracle - the I Ching, or Book of Changes - worked because it was a mathematically coded form of the time wave system that underlies change in the universe. The I Ching is a group of 64 six-line structures called hexagrams, which show all combinations of Yin and Yang (like + and - ). Another researcher - Martin Schonberger, in 1973, found an exact correspondence between the 64 hexagrams and the 64 codons in our DNA, at the same time as the brothers worked on advanced neurochemical theories to explain how the chemistry system worked, by which they had accessed knowledge stored in their nuclear DNA.
 
Eventually, they found a complex fractal wave, where each level is 64 times greater than the one below, consisting of 26 levels, which describes all change in the universe, from sub-atomic event durations, up to a universe-length time-span. When they analysed the peaks and troughs of history, and lined up the Timewave over the wave of history, they found that the end of the wave, when all the sub-waves peak together, will be in the year 2012 !! At the time they discovered this, THEY KNEW NOTHING ABOUT THE MAYAN CALENDAR, or that the Long Count ends in 2012. The Invisible Landscape was published in 1975, and knowledge of the Mayan calendar did not become widespread until 1987, when Jose Arguelles published The Mayan Factor. Having heard about this later, the McKennas published a new version of the Invisible Landscape in 1993, in which the Timewave was refined to end on the winter solstice, along with the Long Count.
 
The Timewave ("Timewave Zero") was criticized by a mathematician called Watkins, and then checked and corrected by a nuclear physicist called John Sheliak, so that the new "Timewave One" fitted history even better (see Hyperborea  for more details).
 
More recently, it has been discovered that the Mayan shamans actually used the same mushroom which the McKennas took, leading to knowledge of 2012 in both cases.
 
The end of the wave shows "ingression of novelty into spacetime" or change, accelerating to incredible levels. To paraphrase Robert Anton Wilson's summary; the last 384-day cycle contains more transformations than in all previous cycles - below that is a 6-day cycle, when things accelerate even faster, and in the last 135 minutes, 18 barriers comparable with the appearance of life, or the invention of language, will be crossed - 13 of these will occur in the last second.
 
At this point, since McKenna had demonstrated that the I Ching was once actually used as a calendar, I began to wonder if there were any other ancient calendrical systems, or knowledge systems which also encoded the knowledge, and began writing reams of notes, which developed into essays - (must be careful this doesn't become one!) Megalithic sites were used for calendrical purposes, and several, such as Newgrange in Ireland, are aligned to the winter solstice sunrise....then there's the Tarot, from which we get our 4x13=52 packs of playing cards (4 seasons of 13 weeks = a 52-week year) - some say it has Egyptian origins - could that have encoded 2012 too?
 
When the Bible Code was published - apparently a third independent ancient encoded source of 2012 info (Earth meets shattered comet), I condensed my "Omega Pointers" into summary paragraphs, with references, and started getting the information out there for others to get their teeth into. In 1999, the handouts had become an A4 booklet, "Beyond 2012 - a Convergence of Eschatological Information". In Autumn 2000, I added a "Pre-millennial Supplement", and did a couple of presentations on the material.  

In 2000, the internet  really started kicking off, and this is the obvious place to share information, so  2012: Dire Gnosis will be the morphing, on-line version of BEYOND 2012, (though Beyond 2012 is now available in book form). A version you can interact with. YES, please donate your info., and I will give you the credit, as I add it to the data-base. You MUST see the 2012 Links page - a guide to  over 300  internet sites, all 2012-related !

Remember (to paraphrase Wilson again), in order to keep an open mind, and not censor any information to bolster our favorite theory, we should, once a week, seriously consider the most absurd and preposterous theories.
 

There will hopefully be no bias here; all ideas will be reported, though opposing viewpoints may also be quoted.
