The “2Ø12” theory is based on the tradition of the Mayan Long Count Calendar, in which the Lunar and Solar Years routinely and predictably coincide every XX years; The last time it did was February 1519, which happened to coincide with the landing of Hernán CORTÉS in present-day Mexico.
There are several issues with the 2Ø12 theory, however; First and foremost, historical. While there does appear to be a correlation between , the reality is that these events impact the Mayan World alone; Even España (Spain) wouldn’t have cared, had gold not come out of this land.
Secondly, it assumes the Earth was created on 11 August 3114 BC, and therefore is only 5,124 years old (she’ll turn 5,125 on 11 August). Considering that Humans have been around since for around 5Ø,ØØØ years (that’s 5Ø millennia), one could safely assume the Earth is much older than that.
More pragmatically, the Mayan Long Count Calendar is based on a Base-19 counting system; Where as most of the world uses Base-1Ø (the numeral Ø, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9), the Mayans used 19 symbols (I don’t know what they were). Exactly why this system should be used, or how they even came up with it (being an odd number, which is inherently more difficult to use) is unknown.
The theory of 2Ø12 as the end of the world really comes form Michael COE’S claim in The Maya “there is a suggestion that Armageddon would overtake the degenerate peoples of the world and all creation on the final day of the thirteenth B’ak’tun, thus our present universe will be annihilated when the Great Cycle of the Long Count reaches completion.”
There are some predictive models that have shown potential for measurable results (for example, the aforementioned “Bible Code” did in fact reveal several events beforehand, even the event of Yitzak RABIN’S assassination in time to give warning to the late Prime Minister’s security staff, who summarily dismissed it), the Mayan Long count’s applicability outside the former Mayan World (parts of Central and South America) is null; It should be acknowledged only as a counting system.
So to ease your troubled mind- Stay out of South and Central America from roughly Mid 2Ø12 to roughly Mid 2Ø13 (even Mexico ‘should’ be safe, though I usually say stay out of that country as well just because most people really are pretty stupid and need simple answers) and you should be fine.
