2012 Galatic Alignment
I've been doing a lot of research on ancient Mayan culture and astronomy/astrology. When the galactic alignment occurs, what will the environmental changes that will occur?
Will they be as drastic as an Ice Age? Will waterways redirect and change the waters again? Thanks - Pieceofthestars!

please stop............. your going to get a list printed off by some guy with numbers in his name in a bit with loads of 2012 topic links on it. he loves doing it!!! mwor ha ha ha ha ha! your part of his collection now...... i can feel it heading this way. Delete the post before much like the borg you will be assimilated.... well I suppose they do the assimilating...... well actually most of the borg have been assimilated i suppose... I dont know i prefer Doctor Who..... anyway lets start again he is the borg and your a star trek extra about to get assimilated.... or something like that... anyway its all good in the hood baby!!! Oh before you get all the responses a quick answer is that nothing will happen and don't worry we are not going to die in a horrible way.

And, as reported by Gillianren elsewhere:
Straight Dope: Does the Mayan calendar predict the end of the world in 2012? Quote:

Hi Pieceofthestars, welcome to BAUT.
One other thing. On top of the nonsense that there is "an end" to the Mayan calendar, there also is no "galatic alignment", and such a concept is close to nonsense.

According to a lot of these 2012 guys, the Schumann resonance is shooting up and all our brains will enter a new state in 2012. Funny thing though, all the sites that actually measure the Schumann resonance show none of the changes claimed by these people with big imaginations. The Mayan 2012 is nothing different to the clock ticking over from 1999 to 2000 in the Christian calendar. About all that will happen is that a bunch of people will do some silly things and then the world will go on as before. The computers will keep working too unless there is a Y2.012 K bug.

Science History and 2012
Just as scientists can see/predict when an asteroid or comet is heading in our viewpoint, they can surely use computer models to predict galatic alignment, and it is indeed probable and likely.
the mayan calendar doesn't predict the end of the world, it talks about the end of one era into another, a new beginning. the mayans accurately predicted astrological/astronomical events before they occured. How is this possible, cycles! Everything is a cycle. Approximately every 25,000-26,000 years this alignment occurs. so instead of turning my hypothetically and realistic questions into a mockery, do some research. thank you to those who gave me useful information.

pieceofthestars,
You are correct that the Mayans could predict some astronomical events, such as lunar eclipses. Anyone with good record keeping, math, and a good calendar can do that. There is absolutely no evidence that they even knew what a galaxy was. Quote:
But, if you have any evidence to the contrary, we would be more than happy to take a look at it.

Second, there will be no "galactic alignment" or any other sort of thing on the date specified. Please see my prior post on this subject. If you are familiar with such things as the ecliptic and the galactic equator, then it will be obvious there will be no "galactic alignment" in 2012, except perhaps in the minds of some folks who really need to learn more about astronomy (we're here to to help with that), or who are trying to make a buck off deceiving the public (see The List above).

Please define galatic alignment (and assuming you meant galactic), and explain the mechanics.

It does pop up here quite often and so for someone new it may be a bit of a shock but don't let that put you off science ... welcome to BAUT pieceofthestars. There are some lively discussions going on right now about this topic in other areas of the forum and one in the CT section with one of the co-authors of Planet X. Perhaps it is one of those things that will be more apparent on the day after it has happened. I have my reasons for being interested too.

Anybody remember the "Harmonic Convergence" that was supposed to occur on 1987 August 16? Lots of new age suckers standing around on Macchu Pichu and other "spiritual" sites. (Don't forget Graceland!) I feel so much better looking out at the world and seeing what the Harmonic Convergence has wrought! A quick note: I did a brief Google on "Harmonic Convergence" just to make sure I remembered the name of this non-event correctly. The Google summary lists on the first page a site (I won't give a link to it, I won't waste my time there) that claims that this "Harmonic Convergence" won't be complete until some 26-year cycle has passed. And 1987 + 26 years is, you guessed it, 2013, after this "galactic alignment". All old superstitions are new age now.
