December 21, 2012. 12:00 Central Standard Time.
the solstice sun (the cosmic father) will super-occlude the galactic center buldge near Saggitarius (the cosmic mother). the buldge is the dark spot you see when you look up at the Milky Way. to the Mayans, it was a big vagina in the sky.
this event is a rebirth, and not an end to the universe, but considering the Mayan's love of blood and death, it sure doesn't look peachy.
Quetzalcoatl is supposed to return at this time, however, the Mayan's thought that Cortez was Quetzalcoatl also, so who knows.
by the way, I plan to be at Chitzen Itza when this happens.
