The Mayan Calendar has taken on special prominence with the imminent arrival of 2012, a date that many claim is the end of that calendar. However, as Mayan elder and daykeeper, Hunbatz Men, shows, the cosmological understanding of his ancestors was so sophisticated that they had not one, but many calendars, each based on the cycles of different systems in the cosmos. In this book, he reveals, for the first time, the Tzek'eb or Pleiades, Calendar of 26,000 years, which charts the revolution of our solar system around Alcyone, the central star of the Pleiades system. He, also, discusses the K'uuk'ulcan Calendar of the 4 seasons of the solar year and the wheel of the K'altunes Calendar, which is composed of 13 cycles of 20 years each that form a calendar of 260 years. In traditional Mayan culture the computation of time was not determined by simple economic or social motives. The calendars served the higher purpose of synchronising the lives of human beings and their societies to the great cosmic pulsation, to the rhythm of the annual seasons and to the other cycles that dictate changes upon Earth. Mayan understanding of the cosmic cycles was so exact that this knowledge could be used to influence all stages of life - from planning when to conceive (parents could choose not only the sex of their child but its vocation and future destiny) to plotting out the course of the entire society. Pyramids played a crucial role in applying this wisdom because, as Hunbatz Men shows, they were able to produce and transform energy in accordance with the cosmic cycles charted by the calendars. This book reveals for the first time the wisdom of the multi-calendar Mayan system and how it can help guide our modern world. · The first book to reveal the secrets of the Mayan Pleiades calendar: the Tzek'eb · Explains how the Maya used their astronomical knowledge to guide their lives on Earth

Here, in this sequel to their best-selling underground classic, The Pleiadian Agenda, the Clow's outline their theory of nine dimensions of human consciousness and how those nine dimensions have become essential to our evolutionary survival. In this new edition, the Clow's incorporate the insights of the Swedish biologist Carl Calleman, demonstrating how recent scientific discoveries validate their theories. They also explore and offer startling insights into the Mayan Calendar and crop circles and offer new insight into the 2011/2012 prophecies.

Among the many controversial theories in this book is that December 21, 2012 is not the date of the new era, as previously thought. The real date, based on a re-examination of the Mayan texts and new scientific research, is October 28, 2011, at which point, the Clows assert, an era of a new and expanded consciousness will be ushered in.

For millennia the development of humanity showed a consistent homogenous pattern. Then suddenly around 5000 B.C. great civilisations sprang up around the globe. All the creation myths of these civilisations tell of gods who came down to Earth and fashioned man in their own image teaching them the arts of agriculture and civilised life. In addition the dominant architectural design in Egypt Sumeria Peru Mexico and China was the pyramid though science has never been able to explain why or where these peoples obtained the advanced technological knowledge to construct such edifices. The abruptness and similarities of these evolutionary leaps calls into question the Darwinian theory of evolution given that there are no traces of any intermediate evolutionary forms. Now using the most current research on DNA Will Hart shows that these gods were actually visitors from other worlds who genetically engineered modern humanity from the beings that then inhabited the planet. He also suggests that the Bible and other creation stories have been interpreted falsely as myth when they should have been read as history. The structures left by our ancestors were designed in accordance with precise astronomical and geodetic alignments to make them visible from outer space and to survive for thousands of years with the intent of communicating information relating to physical and temporal events. Humanity's current stage of development has finally reached the point where the secret messages of these structures can be decoded to reveal the fate of humanity in the coming Earth changes.

This groundbreaking new book from the author of THE STONES OF TIME cracks the code of the ancient Maya glyphs. From his research of Plains Indians' handsigns author and artist Martin Brennan shows that the hand gestures in Maya artwork are at the very roots of their language. In more than two hundred drawings he deciphers these handsigns and brings us to a new understanding of the soul and spirit of the Maya.

The ancient Mayan civilization had one of the most advanced understandings of astronomy and their calendar reflected this sophistication. But the Mayan calendar is not simply keyed to the movement of planetary bodies. It functions as a metaphysical map of the evolution of consciousness and records how time flows spiritually as well as materially - providing a new science of time. The calendar is associated with nine creation cycles which represent nine levels of consciousness or Underworlds on the Mayan cosmic pyramid. Through empirical research Calleman shows how this pyramidal structure of consciousness development can explain things as disparate as the common origin of world religions and the modern complaint that time seems to be moving faster. Time in fact is speeding up as we transition from the materialist Planetary Underworld of time that governs us to day to a new and higher frequency of consciousness - the Galactic Underworld - in preparation for the final Universal level of conscious enlightenment. Calleman reveals how the Mayan calendar is a spiritual device that enables a greater understanding of the nature of conscious evolution throughout human history and the concrete steps we can take to align ourselves with this cosmic evolution toward enlightenment.

Many researchers have investigated the science of time cycles by using the Mayan Calendar, which tracks the 5,125-year Long Count ending in the year 2012. History shows that civilizations suddenly appeared around 3115 B.C. in Egypt, India, and Sumer that used calendars based on systems similar to the Mayan Calendar, reflecting what was once a universal and sacred understanding of time. In The Mayan Code, Barbara Hand Clow draws on the work of biologist Carl Johan Calleman and many other New Paradigm researchers to unearth the deeper meaning behind the calendar and its message for modern civilization, especially during its final five years. As we approach the end of the Mayan Calendar, time and consciousness are accelerating. Working with Calleman's time-acceleration theory, Barbara Hand Clow shows how the cycles of time marked by the calendar match important periods in the evolutionary data banks of Earth and the Milky Way Galaxy and that the calendar describes the evolutionary stage to come. She explores how our own personal healing is the most important factor as we prepare to make this critical leap in human evolution--now referred to as the awakening of the World Mind. · Unearths the meaning behind the calendar, its message for modern civilization, and what will happen when the calendar ends · Reveals how time acceleration is a manifestation of the acceleration of consciousness · By the author of The Pleiadian Agenda

As the Mayan calendar comes to a close, we are entering into a time of great opportunity for spiritual growth and higher planetary consciousness. The ancient Maya foresaw this awakening and thus embedded within their archetypal symbols instructions for harnessing the energies activated during this transformational period. Forming a “language of light” that represents a bridge between physical and spiritual realities, these ancient symbols have the power to catalyse growth, change and awareness.

Interacting with these glyphs establishes a personal “resonance” or direct communication with each of the symbols, creating a conduit through which to receive their galactic energies.

Conceived in a prophetic dream, THE MAYAN ORACLE is composed of 44 cards - 20 Mayan star-glyphs, 13 numbers and 11 “lenses of the mystery” - along with an in depth guidebook. Providing divinatory spreads, poetic meditations and exercises for insight and intuition, the guide explains each symbol's Mayan usage, divinatory meaning and the attributes, elements and items associated with them - from colours and herbs to ritual movements. Designed to stimulate the intuition, this oracle offers a way to interact with the Mayan archetypes in order to elevate your consciousness to a higher dimension and transform old ways of seeing, doing and being.

SECRETS OF MAYAN SCIENCE/RELIGION reveals the sacred teachings that were hidden by the Mayan priesthood shortly after the Spanish Conquistadors landed in Mexico in 1519. In this spiritual text Hunbatz Men explores the metaphysics of ancient Mayan glyphs and the esoteric significance of the letters G T and O. He concludes with an explanation of the secret path to illumined consciousness of the feathered serpent Quetzalcoatl. Hunbatz Men is a Mayan daykeeper - an authority on the history chronology and calendars of Mayan civilization. He is also the founder of the Mayan Indigenous Community near Merida Mexico and a respected ceremonial leader.
