If you are reading this, that means you have survived to live another day, which is just as I suspected and found to be the case during my 2 years of research on the Maya calendar. As most of you have figured out, the Maya did not predict the end of the world. My research of the Maya and their ever mysterious calendar that we all have been told was the meaning of the end of the world, was not only a misinterpretation of the date the Long Count Calendar ended (just as our Gregorian calendar ends every Dec 31), but also a misconception of the meaning of end of the Long Count Calendar days.
If you are still curious as to why the world did not come to end and why fire and brimstone was not sent to destroy us all, it's not too late to order my book and learn the facts behind the myths. Just click on the links to order your copy today! If you did believe the hype of the end of days, and wake up tomorrow feeling slightly foolish that you were hoodwinked, purchase a copy of my book and learn why you really had nothing to worry about in the first place. Happy Winter Soltice everyone!

Only a couple of days until the so called "Maya Doomsday" and frankly, I just roll my eyes when people talk of it. December 21, 2012 will be a busy night for hotels, casinos, bars, restaurants, ect... Everyone is having a Doomsday party. Except me... I may go out & join the people in the festivities, but only to educate them on the reality of it all, not to celebrate a Maya prediction that was completely misinterpreted.
December 21 is fast approaching! Will perpetual doom arrive? Will the world as we know it really end? With the economy still in recession and political parties clearly divided, it may seem like it.
For answers to this question, you will need to read my book on the Ancient Maya and find out! :) I was granted a second interview with Spiritually Raw TV and internet TV show. The hosts April and Ajay are great. You can watch my second interview here.
Spiritually Raw TV - Episode "Hookwinked" This is your new blog post. Click here and start typing, or drag in elements from the top bar. Earlier in August I gave my presentation "Unlocking The Mysteries of The Ancient Maya" to the University of Minnesota Rotary Club. So far this was the smallest rotary club I've presented, but yet again I was not disappointed with the warm reception that I received from the audience. After my presentation I was presented with a donation of a children's book in my name to the Jeremiah Program from their rotary group. The Jeremiah Program is a great program that the University of Minnesota Rotary Club supports. It is a program that helps single mothers conquer poverty. My interview is airing now on Spiritually Raw TV. Listen here! And don't forget to vote for me so I can get an extended interview with them at a later date. Feel free to share with your friends. I hope you enjoy my interview. April & AJ were great hosts.
This is the 3rd Friday the 13th in 2012, which is apparently mathematically the most that can happen in one year. To read the full accounts of where Friday the 13th became an unlucky day you can read what wikopedia has to say about it. Friday the 13th superstition
The Maya considered the number 13 to a sacred number. The Maya had superstitions just like every culture does. Both good and bad, but the number 13, was a good number and Friday the 13th didn't exist in Maya culture as their days and weeks were not labeled or equal to the days and weeks we use of the Gregorian calendar. I have been sending media pitches for a while now, and I finally landed an interview to discuss my book. My first interview takes place tomorrow am for an internet TV show called Spiritually RAW TV. I couldn't be more exited.
