Its ironic that the Mayan Calendar is often called the "sun stone." While the calendar does have "solar" days, acknowledging the 365 days it takes for Earth to rotate around the Sun, it is also true that the Sun plays a key role in the final day of the "long count." The date December 21st, 2012 A.D. (13.0.0.0.0 in the Long Count), represents an extremely close conjunction of the Winter Solstice Sun with the crossing point of the Galactic Equator (Equator of the Milky Way) and the Ecliptic (path of the Sun), what that ancient Maya recognized as the Sacred Tree. This is an event that has been coming to resonance very slowly over thousands and thousands of years.
Our solar system is part of a huge disc shaped collection of stars and planets called the Milky Way. Were located somewhere on the edge of the disc, slightly on top of the narrow disc. But very soon well be moving to the bottom of the disc. This change, from top to bottom, begins on December 21, 2012.
