After the last Sun Age, Hunab Ka, Mayan Sun God banished the Death Lords to Xibalba. When the waters receded they plotted their return.
The one thing the Mayans feared most was the end of time. In the hopes of preventing this, they first transferred the observed cycles from the heavens into linear progressions of time, so that time could only stop when the cycles were complete.
The Popol Vuh consists of astronomical and prophetical calculations, which the Mayans did in exacting degree. Explaining these calculations is the story of how the universe came to be created, the failed creations of humanity, the conquest of death, the successful creation of humanity, the weakening of the powers of humanity, the dispersal of humanity.
The gods try four times to create humans and failed each time, so they destroy their creations. In 2012 Eye of the Shaman we must all ask ourselves how we’ve done this time as the 4th Sun Age comes to a close….if we’ve passed the test and make it to the next Sun Age.
