The Mayan calendar made an amazing prediction in the 8th century A.D., it was about “white skinned, bearded gods” coming from across the sea and landing on March 5, 1519. It was on that exact date that the Spanish explorer Cortez and his conquistadors arrived in the New World at the shore of Tabasco.
The most startling calendar prediction, is the Mayan 2012 end of world prophecy. The Mayan calendar says that when the winter solstice occurs on December 21, 2012 the sun will rise in the dark rift of the Milky Way galaxy. Astronomers explain that this means the earth will be in exact alignment with the sun and the center of the Milky Way galaxy. This is an event that happens only once every 25,800 years. It is now nearly time for it to happen again. The Mayans predicted this cosmic alignment with their calendar many, many centuries ago.
