There are lots of dates to choose from. Why pick the Mayan date?
Is there a numerological reason?
Is there a connection claimed between the Mayans and something?
Is this just a piling on of more unrelated material to 2012?

So if we enter a golden age again I presume there was a golden age before. Any idea when this golden age existed?

from indigos, opening chakras, and Dec 21 2012, and how its all supposed to tie together.
Great! I somehow missed the 2012 connection. Can you tell me why this is connected to 2012?
As far as the current (p)age is concerned it seems to be that its an anything goes guess. When situations like this occur it certainly suggests that the "age of (whatever)" is not real. Rather it seems that the claim of an age is made up.

Well you could explain this connection to 2012, but here you chose not to. Why?
It is well known that the Earth has a wobble... this is called the Precesion of the Equinox. This takes about 26,000 years to complete. What isn't as well known is why... The supposed meaning behind this, as I have read is that this is our solor systems trip around the galactic center. It would seem to me that this should take a lot longer, but... that's the explination we have so far. At certain points throughout this journey, the solor system goes in and out of a cosmic dust called the "oort cloud" (it has other names also). During these alignments, there is a supposed time of "enlightenment"... maybe a "time of no time"... I'm not really sure as I can't remember the last time we were in one of these alignments (the beauty of "veil of forgetfullness").
The Mayan visitor went by the name of Queztocoatl
but the end of the 26,000 year precession as the Mayan calender is cyclical.
That does not mean that there won't be death and destruction... as if the Earth is birthing a 4 or 5D version of herself, there may be flooding, fire, etc, etc... nobody really knows./quote]
This too is Aztec. The Mayans only had a single creation, no restarts so to speak.
If you are getting this so-called info from youtube or wherever then you need to find better sources.

So you are simply saying that there is no connection to 2012. Was that hard to admit?
The precession of the equinoxes is due to a wobble. It is not related to the Sun's rotation about the galaxy. The Oort cloud is a part of the solar system. We do not go in and out of it.
Actually Quetzalcoatl was an Aztec deity, not Mayan. The long count calendar was used by the Mayans, not the Aztecs. So Q would not have given the Aztecs the date which was from a Mayan Calendar. There is something wrong here. It sounds like a mix up with Mesoamerican civilizations.
The long count is not a cyclical calendar. It is an unending linear calendar such as ours. The long count is also not related to the precession. It appears that the Mayans did not known about the precession.

The notion that Quetzalcoatl is Satan is another New Age myth that has appeared. It seems that the idea comes from Marantha who mixes up the feathered Q with the notion that Q had wings. Marantha compares the Mayan deity Q with the 2012 Chinese calendar which is the year of the dragon. Marantha makes some claims about the appearance of Satan and Q being the same which is not true. It is at best a few slight similarities. Then Marantha goes on to claim that Q is the same as a number of deities from other parts of the world as well such as some Eguyptian gods and some Greek and Roman gods.
