1. The Mayan Calendar
The ancient Mayas of central America created the calendar so precise that it could predict lunar eclipses literally thousands of years in the future. Yet the Mayan calendar mysteriously ends on one date, December 21, 2012. The date December 21st, 2012 A.D. (13.0.0.0.0 in the Long Count), represents an extremely close conjunction of the Winter Solstice Sun with the crossing point of the Galactic Equator (Equator of the Milky Way) and the Ecliptic (path of the Sun), what that ancient Maya recognized as the Sacred Tree. This is an event that has been coming to resonance very slowly over thousands and thousands of years.

2. The Web Bot Project
Ancient predictions might seem hard to believe but what if the prediction is done by modern science technology which most of us are not aware of. The newest version of the 2012 dooms day prophecy comes from oracle which is not even a human. Its designers call it the web bot project. It is a program to predict possible futures. It predicts future events by tracking keywords entered on the Internet.
The Web Bot has gained most of its notoriety for contributing to the 2012 phenomenon by predicting that a cataclysm will devastate the planet in the year 2012, possibly a reversing of Earth’s magnetic poles or a small series of nuclear attacks leading up to a major attack during the year.
But once again should we believe such an internet based program predicting end of the world?

The identical dooms day date can be found in the one of the China’s oldest text called I Ching or the Book of changes which is approximately 5000 years old.
Terence Mckenna studied the fascinating numerology behind the I Ching The 6 lines and 64 possible combinations was expressed as ratio of change in each hexagram and plotted on a graph. Then he mapped that graph over a time line. The graph would fit perfectly over the timeline and in doing so, the end of the graph lined up upon December 22, 2012.
Does the ending of Mckenna's time line mean the end of the world?

Before she gave her prophecies, gods of Apollo use to take over her body. “The god possessed the Sibyl. She made utterances in the altered state. Sibyl’s prophecies where collected in series of scrolls and housed in the temple of Jupiter. They were considered the most important books of the ancient Rome. Among the Sibyl’s prophecies, it was a distant apocalypse. She predicted that the world would last for 9 periods of 8 hundred years each. The 10th generation would begin approximately 2000 AD and it would be the last.
“These things in the 10th generation shall come to pass.
The earth shall be shaken by a great earthquake that throws many cities into the sea.
There shall be war. Fire shall come flashing forth from the heavens, and many cities burn.
Black ashes shall fill the great sky. Then know the anger of the Gods.”

Some fear that the lineup will somehow expose Earth to powerful unknown galactic forces that will hasten its doom.
