Hi, I call myself Ignatz after Dan Herriman's character in the old "Krazy Kat" comic strip. I'm 44, father of 3, husband to one, crazy about music and books and food and movies and history and martial arts. I've had some wild and crazy times in my life, and I figure I might as well put in some of my perspective.

I promise not to talk down to anyone or make fun,and I promise not to BS anyone. If you're old enough to ask a frank question, you're old enough to get a frank answer. Oh, and if you ask me a question directly, please be patient. I'll get back to you as soon as I can. My life's a bit hectic. :-)

Can someone link dreams, parallel universes, and the 12.21.12 Mayan prediction? I've read online about how when one dreams, he or she enters a parallel universe and sees through the eyes of a different version of him- or herself.

However, I read somewhere about the "energy" changing in 2012. What is this "energy" and what is the connection between parallel universes and 2012, if anything?

Please only answer if you genuinely care about this topic and have done research. I don't need a long answer, but this topic blows my mind and I'm very curious. (link)
Supposedly, the end of the 13th baktun of the Mayan calendar signals a new cycle of creation. Depending on your prophet of choice, this can mean everything from worldwide catastrophe to a fundamental change in the way people think. Of course, according to people who actually study ancient Maya culture and cosmology, the date 13.00.00.00 is something like December 31st - the end of one cycle and the beginning of another. Here's an article in Archaeology magazine about it. http://www.archaeology.org/0911/2012/

It can be very dangerous to draw connections across unrelated cultures in an attempt to predict the future or prove some theory. Most of these doomsayers are just trying to sell books.

Hope this helps.
