All You Wanted To Know About Year Of 2012

There is scarcely a person these days that isn't aware of the end of the world that is prognosticated to occur on December 20, 2012. People from all over the world are anxious about what is going to happen on this particular day. Some of them take the forecasted end of the world seriously, others are more skeptical. Fatal prognostications were done several times before and still nothing happened. Then why is so much fuss about the year of 2012? Does it somehow differ from what we experience before? The most evident explanation why the year of 2012 is so much talked about is provided by historians. The fact is that the famous Mayan calendar that is regarded as very precise ends on December 20, 2012. There are some thoughts why the calendar ends on this day, but the version of the end of the world is the most popular amongst public at present time. Let us think of this issue from the standpoint of scientists in other spheres.

For instance, ecologists observe evident changes in the climate on the globe. These changes are referred to as global warming. The greenhouse effect of the atmosphere is definitely observed and brings to some considerable climate changes. So there is an opinion that some ecological catastrophe is about to blow up. Taking into consideration that there are a number of places covered with snow and ice on the Earth some specialists suggest that extensive melting of the snow is rather possible. Another interpretation that seems the most credible is the astrologers' theory concerning the changing of astrological eras. In accordance with astrologic cycles December 20, 2012 is the last day of the era of Pisces that has continued for two thousand years. Then comes the Aquarius era. It is supposed that in the Aquarius era the humankind will enjoy mutual understanding and harmony. Experts declare that it will be the era when all the people in the world understand each other and all the frontiers will be removed. The humankind will reach high level of spiritual development. So the versions are numerous. We'll see which one proves to be correct in future.
