Mayanism





DECEMBER 21, 2012

Its popularity in the New Age movement stems from the ending of the current ''baktun'' cycle of the Maya Calendar in 2012 , which many New Agers believe will create a global "consciousness shift" and the beginning of a new age. The relevence of this modern belief to actual traditional Maya beliefs is strongly debated.
