The Mayan Calendar

The Foundation of Time

The Mayan civilization, renowned for its advancements in astronomy, mathematics, and architecture, created one of the most intricate and intriguing calendar systems in history. The Mayans developed several calendars, but the most famous is the Long Count Calendar. This calendar, carved into stone monuments and used across Mesoamerica, tracked time in cycles known as baktuns, each lasting approximately 394 years. The precision and complexity of the Mayan calendar system showcased their deep understanding of celestial movements and the passage of time.  

The structure of the Long Count Calendar

The Long Count Calendar operated on a hierarchal system of cycles, with each period representing a different unit of time. The calendar began with the mythical creation date of August 11, 3114 BCE, marking the start of the Mayan era. The Long Count consisted of various cycles: the k'in (day), winal (20 days), tun (360 days), k'atun (7,200 days), and b'ak'tun (144,000 days). The completion of a baktun cycle held significant importance and was often associated with prophecies or the ending of an era, although Mayan inscriptions do not predict cataclysms or apocalyptic events.  

Legacy and interpretations

The end of the 13th baktun cycle on December 21, 2012, sparked widespread fascination and interpretations worldwide, as some believed it heralded an apocalyptic event. However, scholars clarified that this was merely the completion of a cycle in the Mayan calendar, similar to the transition from December 31st to January 1st in the Gregorian calendar. Modern-day interpretations vary, with some viewing the Mayan calendar as a cyclical representation of cosmic energies or a guide for spiritual growth rather than a predictor of doomsday.  

Cultural significance and continued reverence

Despite the misconceptions surrounding the 2012 phenomenon, the Mayan calendar remains a testament to the ingenuity and intellectual prowess of the ancient civilization. It not only served as a timekeeping tool but also played a vital role in religious ceremonies, agricultural practices, and governance. Today, it continues to be a symbol of cultural heritage and inspiration, preserving the legacy of the Mayan people and their remarkable understanding of time, astronomy, and the cosmos.

#angrybikemechanic #jra #mayancalendar I can't imagine what could be wrong. I take it in for service every b'ak'tun and then go back to doing all the stuff that broke it. https://www.instagram.com/p/CmaJOW4OVWR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

January 1, Day 1

1 day 2015

I've stared at that card for the past 7 months wishing the new year would get here already & it finally has. I have kind of a big resolution that will probably take all year but I want to get off all the medications I'm on, get myself healthy & back to living and enjoying life! #wishmeluck #newyears #resolution #goodbye2014 #hello2015 #project365 #day1

I started project 365 because I needed something to keep me going. I was bed ridden at the time due to medication induced vertigo. It was awful and I wanted to die. It lasted months and my doctor was no help. I was hopeless. I starred at this card that a friend of my mom had made her for months just wishing for a change. That change was me.

1 day 2016

Today was a nice chill day! (January's theme is blue!) #shadesofblue #chill #relaxed #january #hello2016 #picoftheday #project365 #day1

By the time I hit the second year I was ready to mix things up and add a theme each month. Each month in 2016 had a different color scheme, starting with blue!

1 day 2017

Happy New Year!��
