The Mayan Calender, What are your thoughts on it? Options

I've known about it for years but only actually looked into it recently.

I was born under the Red Rhythmic Serpent an the little bio of it's influence is very me,
I didn't know this at the time of changing my avatar btw.

It's early days for my own opinion on the subject, still researching.

It looks an feels very positive so far, has anyone researched it much?
the historical accuracy seems like some pretty compelling evidence.

What impresses me is 'effort' an the Harmonic convergence was a big world wide event in the 80's that seems to tie in with the Mayan calender,
so i expect something, not the end of the world though.

Hello:

In my opinion there wont be literaly an "end of the world", no more than what has already been with us destroying this planet. Still, maybe the planet as a living being will someday defend itself against us, just like if we where an infection in its body. So the "end of the world" would not be the end of the planet or nature, just of human beings that cant align with natural forces. Still, this is a very literal interpretation. The "end of the world" could also mean a shift in consciouness, the end of the one and only perspective, the born of new ideas wich means the death of old idols. The brake of the Unity of the world and of Identity and the income of multiplicity, plural tought.

But I ask myself something else ¿why do we expect something to happen? Are we so tired of living and so hatefull to this life and to ourselfs in order to have this cathastrophic fantasys? If magick combines desire and beliefe, arent we provoquing an end to happen? And this colective desire to die, proyected in the doomsday movies (sigils) doesnt come from those who are too week to say Yes to this life as it is? Seems to me that the whole idea of the end of the world was constructed in minds that felt self pity of themselfs. They put their hope in the "end of days" because lamenting to be alive and here. They think, "life hurts, lets end it". I believe a more couragous attitud would be closer to Nietzsches tought on eternal return...something like.... dont wish something else, "wish this very instant to repit as it is forever" (this is not a an exact quotation)

Thats to me saying Yes instead of No, loving and not hating things because ugly. I say, we, as femenine souls, lets love the Beast (as a beast, with no expectations) and it will (as a secondary matter) transform into a prince: The Prince of this World. Thoose who want an end will end, and then earth will be free of all the negative nihilists, and then we shall seed and work this world joyfully with creative magick. Oh pale angels quickly go to heaven (nothingness), and leave us deimons (with inner strenght) this world (sustance) for our artistic pleasure! And lets even help the ascention procces of the weak, we want this world only for us, the enthusiastic! ( word wich paradoxly means "with god inside") I must add: the god of the living ones, not the crucified.
