That reminds me of a dream i had once where I was stuffed into a big terracotta jar while still alive and buried in the corner of a pyramid as a consecration rite and then there was the dream of the smoking black round concave mirror which was dorian gray like, reflecting what my persona looked like. Or the one of flying over the avenue of the dead at teotihuacan and looking down on a spectacle of lavish colour reflected in the pools of the flooded avenue.
Well I have nothing to add to those weird-ass dreams except to say you're quite mental.
Although once the missus did make a chocolate cake and forgot to put in any sugar. She couldn't stomach it but I was like, "mmmm... no its good, its just got a reeeal dark flavour". And then I realised it was AZTEC POWER in cake form and no wonder cocoa was sacred to them.
According to wikipedia 2012 is one of the lesser demarcations of time...
This is confirmed by a date from Palenque, which projects forward in time to 1.0.0.0.0.0, which will occur on October 13, 4772 (a Friday). The Classic Period Maya likely did not believe that the end of this age would occur in 2012. According to the Maya, there will be a baktun ending in 2012, a significant event being the end of a 13th 400 year period, but not the end of the world.

Also... my 38th birthday (23-12-2012) is:
the alternative date for the completion of the thirteenth b'ak'tun cycle in the Maya calendar, using a version of the GMT-correlation based on a JDN of 584285 (a.k.a. the "Lounsbury correlation"), which is supported by a smaller number of Mayanist researchers."
And the Kyoto Protocol expires on 31st December of that year.
There is still a part of me that thinks there is a shift in human consciousness going on, with all the attendant New Age bells and whistles, but I try not to get too caught up in it because a lot of the hippies I've known who were into that stuff were pretty hopeless for anything but crystal-gazing and soap-dodging. Going into a new age bookstore is like walking into the twilight zone. The last time I visited the one in Wellington I got talking to the old woman working there and she began conflating Jung with Christ. It was mildly terrifying.
Anyhow - 2012 Dissensus Mexican Meet-Up... who is keen?
