Will 2012 Actually Arrive Sooner Than We Think?

By Kris Sherwood

While watching a History Channel program on the life of Jesus which examined, 
among other things, questions about the actual year Jesus was born in relation 
to the calendar most commonly used to mark time by: the ‘Christian Era’ 
calendar, a startling question arose as Ed (husband and research partner Ed 
Sherwood) and I discussed it. Based on various inconsistencies in the 
chronology of events and dates, as well as mistakes made by the monk, 
Dionysius, in the creation of that calendar, I realized the date of 2012 is our 
interpretation, or assumption, of the corresponding year in the much longer 
time span of the Mayan Calendar that predicts the ‘end’ of our present world or 
cycle on December 23rd of its own prophesied year within its calendar, but 
doesn’t relate to or take into account the discrepancies in the conversions to 
the newer calendar, and the corresponding date may not actually be 2012 by the 
Gregorian Calendar! It may actually be years sooner! After further
 research it seemed to me that at the very least, and based on historical 
facts, our present calendar does not account for at least one year, to a 
maximum of seven years, in the chronology of events and the conversion of the 
Julian Calendar to the Gregorian!  This means 2012 actually may correspond to 
one of the years from 2011 to as soon as 2005, depending on how you interpret 
the evidence. 

The Christian monk, Dionysius, was commisioned in 525 AD by Pope St John I to 
create a new calendar which was decreed by the Pope to begin with the birth of 
Christ as 1 Anno Domani (1 AD: the first year of our Lord). This date 
corresponded with 754 of the Roman calendar (which predated the Julian calendar 
that was replaced by the current Gregorian calendar), and year 753 of the Roman 
calendar became 1 BC. This sequence ignored the year ‘0’ throwing off the 
counting of BC years by at least one. For example if you were born in 10 BC, in 
10 AD you’d be 19, not 20. Other errors and compensations were made in the 
conversions from earlier calendar systems that could make the discrepancy even 
greater. 

It is recorded that Herod died in 4 BC, directly contradicting the Gospel of 
Matthew which has the Holy family fleeing to Egypt with the young child, Jesus, 
until after Herod’s death. Herod’s death follows a time consuming sequence of 
events described in Matthew following the birth of Christ that include: the 
journey of the ‘three men from the East’ following the ‘star’ to Bethlehem, 
presumably a long journey; then their return travel home that avoided Herod, 
now realizing the potential danger if they had to answer more of his questions 
about Jesus; then the angel’s warning to Joseph, and the Holy family’s flight 
into Egypt; Herod’s subsequent order to kill all children two years old or 
younger in the region, carried out and based on the estimated age of Jesus from 
what the three men had told Herod when they first met with him on their way to 
Bethlehem; Herod’s death then follows the mass infanticide, but it’s not clear 
by how long; finally the Holy family is told, again by
 an angel, that the coast is clear and they then travel back to Nazareth. If we 
can believe the chronology of Matthew, it seems that Jesus must have been born 
at the very least a couple of years before Herod died, giving him a birth date 
of as early as 6 or 7 BC, or maybe even earlier. If Dionysius compounded his 
error by counting 7 BC as 1 AD this amounts to a nine year discrepency, meaning 
2012 could have aligned with 2003! We’ve passed December 23, 2004 without a 
world transforming event, so it could be considered if an error was made by 
Dionysius it was by less than 8 years, and if it was by seven as the evidence 
suggests, 2012 might actually be 2005! Interestingly, Ed has had a strong 
feeling 2005 would be a very significant year to the changes culminating at 
these potentially ‘prophesied times’.

While this might allow for a wide range of interpretation, if the end of the 
Mayan calendar corresponds with any type of ‘shift to a new order’ (which Ed 
and I certainly see the Crop Circle phenomenon as an indicator of), or the ‘End 
of Days’ as we know it, and that has been widely conjectured about, knowing 
that it may arrive a year or more before anticipated might get some of us up 
‘off the couch’ and re-evaluating priorities.

Whether ‘2012’ means an actual date that brings with it a profound 
manifestation of prophesied Cosmic Destiny; a cataclysmic backlash of mass 
spiritual decadence through violent natural forces, as the current Mayan Elders 
warn; or if it’s only revealed to be mass fodder for self appointed prophets, 
doom mongers, and New Age ‘Carpetbaggers’, that bursts like an empty Y2K 
balloon, ‘2012’ might just be scheduled to arrive a lot sooner than we think.
