History has come with numerous prophecies about the Apocalypse that contradict each other, but in recent years a new day has been set for the end of the world, December 21, 2012. The irony is that the date associated with the end of the world is built on the premise that history is cyclical and non-linear. Predicting Judgment Day is a cultural phenomenon that hypothesizes catastrophic and apocalyptic events that will occur. This idea has been spread in countless books, websites, and documentaries. The prediction that the world will end in 2012 is based on the fact that the long-term calendar of the Mayan culture, which ends in 5125 and corresponds to our calendar date of December 21, 2012, warns of disasters that will end the world (Geoff, 38 ). Some apocalypse believers claim that Mayan astronomers predicted the alignment of the earth, sun and the central solstice of the Milky Way on December 21, 2012. According to the prediction, the alignment is related to the procession of the equinoxes and is a sign of transition between two different eras of the universe. One interpretation of this transition, which refers to a new era, believes that during this period the earth and its inhabitants will experience a physical transformation. The year 2012 marks the beginning of this era. Other theories suggest that 2012 will mark the end of the world or a similar catastrophe. Scenarios for the end of the world currently include a collision of the Earth with a wandering planet, or a black hole, or the occurrence of the next solar maximum. In fact, several synopses have been drawn up for December 21, 2012, but the most alarming is the arrival of the apocalypse. Scientists from various disciplines deny the idea of ​​a catastrophe in 2012. ...... middle of paper ..... .Krupp, Edwin. “2012: Is the Fear Justified?” Hinduism today. 32.4 (2010).Joseph, Lawrence.
