Armageddon 2012 or the 2012 phenomenon is composed of various catastrophic or trans-formative incidents that will occur on December 21, 2012. That date is also said to be the finish of the 5,125 years in the Mayan Long calendar.

According to New Age believers, the world is about the experience a spiritual transformation during this time and therefore interprets the 2012 predictions as the introduction, instead of the end of the world. Meanwhile, others say that this date marks the end of the world based on the Book of Revelations. Among the possible situations that would end the world include the planet’s impact with another planet (called Nibiru), black hole explosion, or the coming of the next solar maximum. In anticipation of the advent of that day, some people even launched 2012 official countdown.

The Mayans, an complex civilization during the early times, made their calendar around 250-900 AD. The Mayan civilization was outstanding during their times because they were skillful in writing, construction, and urban planning. Mayans are also famous for their pyramids and intricate buildings. In addition, the Mayans were avid users of calendars and considered time as spiritual cycles. Most of their calendars were short, but they combined their different calendars until they developed their Mayan Long calendar lasting 5,125 years. How does the end of their calendar connect with the end of the world? According to scientists, there is not enough bases that something bad, or Doomsday, would occur when the long calendar runs out of date.

The coronal mass ejection from the sun is one of the predictions that might occur on December 21, 2012. In 1859, the same catastrophe happened, when a solar storm occurred, which brought about failures in the telegraph systems in North America and Europe. The same incident is predicted to occur in the year 2012, along with huge massive power blackouts and destruction of satellites.

Explosion from the black hole is another likelihood that is expected to occur. Accordingly, such incident will bring about cosmic ray waves that can cause massive destructive tsunamis in the planet.

Will the world end on Doomsday? When something ends, many people assume the extreme possibilities of ending. Converse to what many say, the Mayans actually predicted an enlightenment happening when 2012 comes. Large-scale destruction, Aztec end of the world, and Mayan Long calendar prophecy have no real basis. The Mayan never mentioned that Doomsday would happen on 2012. In fact, scholars from various disciplines have already dismissed the concept of cataclysmic events happening in 2012. NASA meanwhile has compared 2012 anxiety to the Y2K bug in the late 1990s.

The Doomsday 2012 prediction has been talked about for decades. One side views it positively while the other side interprets it into large-scale devastation. No one can really know what will happen until that day arrives.
