Tomorrow, January 17th 2008 is a very significant day in the Mayan long count calendar.
It is exactly 1800 days to the end of the cycle on the most commonly agreed correlation date of December 21st 2012.
This means that it is exactly 5 Tun (a cycle of 360 days) or one Holtun (5 tun).
The day sign is 11 Ahau or Sun. This is significant as the end of Tun and Katun cycles always fall on this day sign and the last day of a cycle is considered the name bearer after which the cycle is named. For example, we are now in the Katun 4 Ahau which is named after the last day of the cycle on 21.12.2012.
The Maya, as is recorded in the Books Of Chilam Balam, associated these days with particular prophecies.
Each Katun has its own energies according to the prophecies associated with these day signs.
We are now shifting into the last Holtun, which means we will be in the last quarter of the last tun of the whole long count- a cycle of 5200 Tun! I think it would be reasonable to say that the jaguar priests of the Chilam Balam would view this as being very significant indeed.
There is also a nice piece of mathmagic that appears in the day count, if we translate it into decimal numbers.
Tomorrow will be 1870200 days into the cycle.
The cycle completes at 1872000.
It will be interesting to observe how we experience this shift energetically.
What we can definitely say is that we are now living in the very end days of the great long count cycle.
