So It's Dec 21st 2012 in part of the world now, any signs of the end of the world?

Just wondering if anything funky has been going on today so far. I haven't heard anything.

It's been raining for hours!

Disclaimer: I live in England.

we should be more concerned when it is not raining...that would be strange!

i live in North Carolina and same here!

Spooky!

no, just a cold front lol

11:11 (UTC) approximately 17hours away. http://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/maya

whether or not any "disasters" take place, i do believe Anonymous will deliver the previously announced "Vital Information" at this time. Which, to me is much more intriguing.

Link?

Why 11:11?

I think that's when the winter solstice is.

It's when the winter solstice is, and also 11:11 is a very important central number of "time". At least as far as numerology is concerned.

This year (and ONLY this year) , the exact time of the winter solstice is 11:11gmt.

Weird! Last year it was at 5:30, the year before it was at 23:58, it's always different. http://www.rmg.co.uk/explore/astronomy-and-time/time-facts/equinoxes-and-solstices

So it's pretty weird that this particular special day has that particular special time gmt. 11:11 make a wish, geez. It is spooky.

It's just what has been passed around as knowledge, it is supposedly when many various celestial bodies all line up together.

So when is it "Dec 21st 2012" according to Mayan Star Calendars?

Not quite sure as I have not cared enough to look into it.
Just going into an aquarius age, from what I understand. Whether or not anything happens, I do not know. Exiting the 13th baktun cycle and going to a new one.

Now, here is an interesting thought. There is a case for stair step evolution. If stair step evolution is true, then maybe something interesting happens with our genetics. I think that the most likely outcome, as we would end up with 44 and 2, as opposed to 42 and 2. Our ancestors were also shorter than us, and I wonder if they were 40 and 2, or malnutrition was limiting, which I think is odd because everything they ate would have been organic.

Now if that does happen, I imagine we may gain new intelligence, senses, heights, sizes...

Maybe humans will have a better consciousness. as a result. Especially if we could tap into each other's consciousness, or universal human truths. Maybe like "Oh, these really mean and fucked up people have been controlling humankind into an eternal fucked up state" or "We really need to stop fighting amongst each other or we will all die".

I think the aquarius definition would be serendipity and surprise... That's what I am hoping for.

Relevant, sir. Relevant.

Organic doesn't mean more nutritious. It's just means no GMOs or pesticides. Conventional produce and organic produce are practically identical in nutritional value.

Also, this whole consciousness shift idea. Don't get me wrong, I wish that this was the actual case and we all had some amazing shift but..Idk, that seems like a farfetched fairytale. I mean, damn, consciousness is so complicated. There's so many factors from our subconscious that go into creating our conscious. Watch these videos about consciousness. They're long, but, given the subject, not even close to long enough.

Organic does equate to more nutrition. I mean if you are feeding a cow grass it will have omega 3 fatty acids in it. If you feed it corn, it will have much fewer omega 3 fatty acids.

The earth would have been more nutritionally dense as well a few hundred years back, maybe a few thousand. As all the ecosystems would have still been intact.

Maybe I am wrong, not sure but that's how I'm thinking about this.

Organic just means it was grown naturally--both the grass and corn that you're feeding the cow could be organic, or they both could not be. Also, any sort of validation for your claim that the earth would have been "more nutritionally dense", whatever that means?

I would think that because the Mayans were in the northern hemisphere that it would be tomorrow.

I wouldn't know =(. Might have to do with alignment to other particular things, might not. I wish I had a high powered telescope to see for myself though. With some awesome star maps to see if this adds up or not.

Winter solstice. So 11:11 am universal time. 5:11 am cst.

Edit: winter solstice seems to be the relevant time, not the actual start of the 21st in the Mayan time zone (cst).

Re-edit: oops, above already said in thread.

Just an earthquake. Some birds and snakes and airplanes.......but Lenny Bruce is not afraid.

But seriously, no. No apocalyptic signs.

LEONARD BERNSTEIN

I have listened to this whole thing (2 hours of him explaining the "evidence" behind a polar shift, and the end of the world as a result), and the primary evidence that he presents for the "end of the world" theory, is that as we cross the galactic plane (the closest we get to the center of the galaxy), the gravitational pull and magnetic pull by the SMBH at the center of the galaxy will be so strong that it will move our magnetic poles, which will tilt the planet (with the new poles, say being at the equator) with it now spinning on the new poles. Apparently there is about 40KM of water rising around the equators, so when the poles move to the equator (or wherever they go) you can expect that water to rush to the new equator. That is essentially the gist of the the "legitimate" evidence behind 2012 being the end of the world. I've also watching/listened to many many documentaries regarding the consciousness shift.

In regards to the worlds end, I am confused as, if the SMBH is so strong (as I would assume it is), strong enough to screw up the magnetism of the earth, why would it not happen until we are right on top of it? Why not weeks, months, years before, or after? I mean it's every 13,000 years that we supposedly cross this area of the galaxy, so even 100 years before or after the closest time could be enough to do the damage, right?

Either way, he provides some serious evidence, the only issue of whether it is actually true or not. The way I see it, if he's right, there's really nothing we can do about it, as we're all gonna die. So it's better to just pick holes in his story and not believe it, I guess. There is really no preparation anyone can do, outside of huge underground facilities in the north pole (which still could end up being thousands of feet underwater), if it is true. And if it IS true, it's not going to happen on the 21st, that's just when we're closest. It could be years before or after.

OT: No, nothing strange. lol

Yup.

The gravitational pull depends only on distance, not angle, so the SMBH shouldn't have any unusual effect. I just ran the numbers, and its pull on Earth is about 1 trillion times weaker than the Sun's... this is something that falls off slowly with distance (inverse square law), no sort of alignment could change it significantly.

As for magnetic effects, they're even weaker at this distance, and although they have some angle-dependence it isn't enough for there to be any measurable change in the completely negligible non-effects.

Might have to do with how magnetics and gravity works. Not that I strongly defend the idea. Close magnets are super strong, far magnets are super weak.

New Zealand here. We've had 10 hours and 5 minutes of apocalypse-free goodness today.

Its supposed to start at 3:11 PST

Ah sweet as. I'll let you know how it goes then.

Worlds biggest farce. 2012 is actually the finalization of the NWO. There is no big event, we were slowly transformed from a free people to a one world government.

Everyone wants something to happen. Why not give it to 'em?

Probably.

No one makes it out alive.

Apocalypse will launch when it's the 21st in Eastern Standard Time.

Gotta let those Langley types get their coffee before starting all the chaos, y'know.

A bunch of frats boys are drunk and a lot of sex is being had somewhere.

Other than that all is quiet.

So..uh...where's the sex?

I'll bet there's an app for that somewhere.

My mom baked Pecan pie, so it might be the end of my bowels later.

You drink too much.

We've had 4 tiny earthquakes in NZ since it became the 21st. :O

r/conspiracy is still posting 'Adam Lanza is a plant' theories- I take that as a sign.

Of?

o_O

It is now the 21st here in the UK. Absolutely nothing out of the ordinary has happened. This is not surprising to me whatsoever.

Nothing is supposed to happen till 3:11AM or 11:11 UTC is my understanding.

Cause it's not midnight in Central America where Mayans marked their calendar.

[deleted]

The UTC standard was officially standardised in 1961 by the International Radio Consultative Committee the myans died out 400 yrs ago

I want to report I'm having these ultra high level thoughts of like million of staff, mathematics, physics, quantum mechanics and I can see through clothing. Boy it ain't what its made out to be. There are some sore, hairy pussies out there.

Sorry, I think my consciousness has been reduced, rather than increased due to all this crazy stuff.

The belief I understand is that our planet Earth, our sun, and the center of the Milky Way galaxy will all come into a rare alignment at exactly 11:11AM GMT on 12/21/2012.

This would be 6:11AM Eastern and 3:11AM Pacific. So if anything would happen I am assuming it's around this planetary alignment. But then again this whole thing could be hogwash, guess we'll have to wait and see.

That alignment happens every year. It's roughly as rare as the McRib.

Nice comparison.

Also, the alignment is with the sun, the North Pole, and the "top" of the Earth relative to the plane of its orbit. Also known as the Winter Solstice.

It's currently impossible for the Earth, Sun, and Milky Way SMBH to line up, incidentally. The configuration of Earth's orbit would have to change a lot.

The location of the galactic plane is nearly arbitrary. It's impossible to know exactly what year the solar system would pass through, much less the precise hour and minute. One top of that, the Earth is moving away from the plane and won't pass through it again for millions of years.

As for the galactic equator, it's defined as the path of the Sun's orbit, which the Earth passes through twice a year.
