What is 2012?

The Long Count Calendar of the Ancient Mayans ends on Dec 21, 2012. There isn't much information regarding what the Mayans thought would occur in 2012, but the consensus of opinion is that there will be great change. To some people this means a positive, spiritual change. Others, like myself, consider that a catastrophic event may have been predicted. people to this day wonder what will happen on December 21 of 2012.There have been many not detected possibilities but many conspiracies and thoughts that may take place on the date which is known to be the end of days. Many scientists have done studies over the past decade or so and our planets in our solar system are suppose to align every 650,000 years. When this is to happen it is to make the magnetic poles in unique alignment which makes all the planets magnetic poles. this would cause a reversal. pole reversals have been happening on average once every 400,000 years, with the most recent one being 730,000 years ago - so we are well overdue. Not only do we not know much about reversals, scientists are still unsure about how our magnetic field is generated. Long thought to be a by-product of the movements of liquid iron in our planet's core, recent studies are suggesting that our salty oceans might be the cause. Scientists suggest a geomagnetic reversal takes thousands of years and does no harm. They are wrong - it could just as easily happen overnight. No mechanism is known for the cause of the magnetic poles swapping places. Our magnetic field is known to be rapidly declining 10% in the last 150 years, and the magnetic North pole is moving around at an accelerating pace - it has been predicted it will move from Canada to Siberia in the next 50 years. These changes could be indicating an imminent reversal. This is just one of the 26 possibilities that scientist have came up with.
