Mayan Calendar Prophecies: The Complete Collection of 2012 Predictions and Prophecies by Gary Daniels (best color ereader txt) 📗

myths in the Old World and the New World seem to encode a struggle or battle between a comet and the sun in which the final outcome was a breakup and devastating impact event on Earth.

20. Decoding the Aztec Calendar Stone

The Aztec Calendar Stone was carved in 1427. The artisans included a wealth of information encoded on this stone about the Aztec belief in a cycle of cosmic destructions that had befallen Earth four times in the past. They believed we currently lived in the fifth such era or Fifth Sun and that this age would also be destroyed.

At the top of the Aztec Calendar Stone was the date 13 Reed, the date the Aztecs believed the Fourth Sun was destroyed by flood and the Fifth Sun was born. The date 13 Reed corresponded with the year 1011 AD in our Gregorian calendar.

In 1980, astronomer Anthony Aveni noted in his book Skywatchers of Ancient Mexico that there appeared to be star patterns or constellations carved into the flanges (i.e., the rock edges) of the Aztec Calendar Stone. In 1999 astronomer Robert S. McIvor published a paper in the Journal of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada entitled “Star Patterns on the Aztec Calendar Stone” in which he hypothesized that one of these star patterns represented the Milk Ladle asterism (star group) located within the constellation Sagittarius and another represented three prominent stars in the constellation Aquila, the Eagle.

McIvor also noted that according to Chinese records, a “guest star” appeared near the Milk Ladle asterism (known to them as the asterism Nan-tou or the Rice Ladle) in 1011 AD. In Chinese astronomy a “guest star” represented any light in the night sky that appeared and disappeared over a short period of time such as a comet or super nova. McIvor theorized that the carving of both the 1011 AD date and the Milk Ladle asterism on the Aztec Calendar Stone possibly were connected to this Chinese “guest star” event.

What message did the Aztecs intend to send by encoding all of this information (the date 1011 AD, the Milk Ladle asterism from the Sagittarius constellation, and three stars from the Aquila constellation) on the Aztec Calendar Stone? And what type of “guest star” did the Chinese spot near the Milk Ladle in 1011 AD: a comet, super nova or something else entirely?

In 1997, physicist Paul A. LaViolette wrote a book entitled Earth Under Fire. In this book he theorized that the intense radio source at the direct center of our galaxy, Sagittarius A, was a star not a black hole and periodically it had enormous outbursts of energy and matter called a galactic superwave. We know such outbursts occur at the centers of other galaxies. Coincidentally, Sagittarius A and the center of the Galaxy appear in our night sky near the Milk Ladle asterism in the constellation Sagittarius.

LaViolette theorized that these outbursts from Sagittarius A would be devastating to life on earth. In fact, the last such large outburst appears to coincide with the onset of the Younger Dryas climate event and the great mass extinction which accompanied it which included the demise of mastadons, wooly mammoths, saber toothed tigers and more. He theorized that a smaller outburst occurred around 3300 BC which coincides with the date recorded in the Mayan Flood Myth.

LaViolette theorized that when Sagittarius A, which is not visible to the naked eye, experienced one of these outbursts it would appear to persons on earth as the sudden appearance of a new bright blue star. This “guest star” would then fade from view once the eruption was over yet the energy and mass it erupted would be hurling through space directly towards Earth.

Does the Chinese guest star of 1011 AD near Nan-tou, the Milk Ladle asterism, represent such an eruption of Sagittarius A? If so, what effects did it have on Earth? The Aztecs claimed the Fourth Sun, which ended in 1011 AD, was destroyed by a flood. Is there any evidence of such a flood? In fact, there is.

The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle states that in England 1014 AD, on the eve of St. Michael’s day (September 28, 1014),

“came the great sea-flood, which spread wide over this land, and ran so far up as it never did before, overwhelming many towns, and an innumerable multitude of people.”[143]

This is clearly a reference to a tsunami similar to the one that struck Indonesia in December 2004 and killed over 250,000 people.

What could have caused this tsunami? Unlike the Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean is not known for earthquakes since it is located on a tectonic plate boundary that is spreading apart along the Mid Atlantic Ridge not colliding with another plate. Thus what else could be responsible for the flood recorded in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle? Could a meteor or comet impact in the Atlantic Ocean have been the cause?

Researcher Dallas Abbott of the Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory at Columbia University discovered material in a bog at Black Rock Forest in Cornwall, New York that “is difficult to explain except with an impact event.” This material included impact glass and spherules that can only be created by the forces associated with a meteor or comet impact as well as marine sediments and fossils that were determined to have come from the mid-Atlantic ridge, over 3800 kilometers from Black Rock Forest. Abbott noted, “because these locations are so far away from Black Rock Forest, the only viable method for transporting the material to Black Rock Forest is an impact event.”[144]

In other words, the evidence suggests that a comet or meteor slammed into the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and ejected material from the bottom of the ocean, which flew over 3800 kilometers and landed in the bog at Black Rock Forest in New York. The material at Black Rock was dated to around 1014 AD. Abbott also noted that such an impact event would have also created a tsunami that would radiate
