Sometime last year, one of my friends came across the work of Carl Johan Calleman, an independent Swedish researcher who had been extensively studying the Mayan culture and calendar for close to 20 years. In his research, Calleman presents an intriguing and different interpretation of the Mayan calendar that explains the reason time seems to be speeding up. And according to him, the Mayan calendar doesn't end on December 21, 2012 but rather October 28, 2011 (yes, as of this writing that's only 21 days away; talk about these things creeping up on you!).
Interestingly, in Gregg Braden's book Fractal Time, he also mentions about time speeding up. Actually, he focused more on how previous events that needed resolution will have similar conditions repeat themselves in a much sooner cycle than before. He uses the Golden Mean for his calculations although the basis for his end date is still 2012.
At the time we first encountered Calleman's research, it was interesting information but we somehow forgot about it until we encountered his research again in the video The Quickening. I'll write another article about The Quickening, but I'll focus more on Calleman here since his research forms the basis of the video anyway.
I'll try to summarize the message of Calleman's work in as few words as possible, because his research is really quite extensive. The basis of the Mayan calendar is the 9 step pyramid. Each step in the pyramid represents an "underworld" or wave. Each wave is divided into 13 phases (7 days and 6 nights; notice the parallel to the Biblical "7 days"). As you shift upward into the next wave, the next "step" is shorter than the previous one as a representation of the jump in consciousness. However, each wave still has the same number of phases so each phase has a shorter length of time compared to the same phase in the last wave. This is why time seems to be speeding up.
The first wave was billions of years long. We are currently on the 9th wave or last "step" and it only started on March 9, 2011 (a day before the devastating earthquake in Fukushima, Japan). The end date for this particular wave is October 28, 2011. So you can see how much shorter each succeeding wave becomes.
If you want a more detailed look into the particulars, visit Calleman's website and look at the following articles located at the left margin of the page:
1. An introduction to the Mayan calendar
2. The Nine Underworlds and Thirteen Heavens
For a more detailed discussion on the wave we are currently in, you can look at this other article also located in Calleman's website.
If you're reading this, I'm sure one of the burning questions at the back of your mind is: What is supposed to happen on October 28, 2011?
I think the jury is still out on that one. On the one hand, previous shifts in consciousness affected the way we think and the way we lived our lives. Examples of this would be the Industrial Revolution, the wars at the first half of the 20th century, explosion of the Internet and so on. But on the other hand, October 28, 2011 represents the end of the 9 waves of the Mayan pyramid, the culmination of billions of years of evolution. What is it going to be? Your guess is as good as mine.
If there's one thing that's sure, it's that this information will take most people unawares, at least among the believers (makes me recall Jesus' words, that he would come "like a thief in the night"). A lot of people, even me and my friends, have been so focused on 2012, with Hollywood and other media jumping into the hype, that most people probably wouldn't have prepared for something much earlier.
Either way, October 28, 2011 is just around the corner, so there's nothing but to just get right down to it and enjoy the show (if there will be one). Should we start selling our houses and all our possessions to prepare? I wouldn't suggest that. But we should still have some sort of preparation (physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually) within the limits of one's time and resources.
