Accoring to the Mayans, what will happen or 21-22-23 December 2012?
Will it be the day that Planet X will be between the Sun and the Earth and all the catasrophies will start to happen and the earth will stop spining for few days and so on ...

Nothing. The year 2012 is just when their calendar rolls over (sort of like our new millennium). Did global catastrophe strike when the numbers on our calendar rolled over? Why should it do so when the Mayan calendar does?Originally Posted by username24
I don't think the Mayans ever talked about Planet X at all, but regardless, the answer is no. What information led you to the idea that it would?

Nope. The Mayan Calendar doesn't "end" in 2012 any more than ours ended on December 31st. No relation to "Planet X" or any other sort of catastrophe... much ado about nothing.
Edit: doh, Grey beat me to it.

You can also use the search function and look at threads in the PX forum on the Mayan Calendar as we see posts every now and then on it. The 2012 date appears to be a favourite for the doomsday crowd (except for those who predict our demise in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, or 2011).

I studied this a few years ago, but I can’t remember the exact numbers. The Mayan calendar rolls over to a new major number about every 600 or so years. I’ve seen some articles that say the calendar works much like a geared series of wheels with numbers on them, something like an odometer. So every few hundred years it rolls over to something like 11000000, 12000000, and the next rollover will be (I think) 13000000.
This is like our calendars rolling over from December 31, 1999 to Jan. 1, 2000.

There is no such thing as “Planet X”. I think this story got started with some old science fiction tale, with the fictional idea being that there is an earth-sized planet in orbit in the same orbit and with the same revolution rate as the earth but on the opposite side of the sun, so that we can never see it. However, any space agency would have seen it by now if it existed, and any astronomer who is good with math could calculate perturbations of the orbits of Mercury and Venus and detect a mass on the opposite side of the sun as the earth. In fact, astronomers several hundred years ago could have detected this if it existed.
What is far more of a reality is guys on the internet making up science fiction and calling it “real” and making up as many disaster stories as they can. They seem to be competing with each other to make up the most outrageous types of stories.

I'm really, really curious as to what's up with all of the questions all of a sudden. Is someone stumbling across the ZetaTalk archives for the first time? If so, you should try to understand that Nancy Leider's first language is English, and that jibberish she spouts is not due to an imperfect translation from her mother tongue. She just doesn't know what she's talking about, is all.

I'm curious myself. username24, it might help if you could let us know what the motivation is behind your questions. Did a friend tell you about planet x? Did you stumble across the zetatalk site? Or have you been visting the GLP website to much?
(I refuse to link to GLP BTW ](*,) )
Don't just post questions and run, chat with us.
But to some up briefly what I know about anything planet x related:
1) The claims of Nancy Lieder (and any other px'r) can be and have been easily disproved.
2) Earth will not stop rotating due to planet x.
3) Earth's axis will not flip, tilt, topple, or any other thing due to planet x.
4) The planet x that is supposed to cause such massive destruction does not exist.
5) Earth and it's inhabitants have nothing to fear from planet x.

The relevant quote from Wolverine's link (which is an excellent description of the Mayan calendar system in more detail than I've ever seen before) which directly answers the OP's question:
Does the Mayan calendar actually end in 2012?
No, it doesn't. The Mayan LongCount 13.0.0.0.0 translates to December 21, 2012. The next day will be 13.0.0.0.1. The "13"s position (called the "Baktuns") can go as high as "19". After that, add another digit. The Mayan Age for the earth for example was extremely long.
This business of the calendar "ending" is based solely on hysterical nonsense. December 20, 2012 will be 12.19.19.17.19 the next day will be 13.0.0.0.0 -- its an odometer change, nothing more.
