Synchronize With Sacred Time
Join us for an Exploration of the Mayan Calendar & 2012
with Carol Ann Ciocco
3 Thursdays: September 27th; October 11th & 25th
From 7:00 to 10:00 PM
At The Open Mind Bookstore, Sewickley PA

Classes are $40 each or $105 if you pay for all 3 in one payment.
Classes cannot be taken individually as they build on each other.

We have 5 years left until December 21, 2012 and many of us are wondering what the Mayans saw when they ended their calendar (which dates back to “The Big Bang”) in our lifetime. What does this end-date mean? What can we learn from the Mayan Calendar about our present-day situations, both personal and collective? Join us for a lively interactive discussion and exploration of the Mayan Calendar with Carol Ann Ciocco.

Class One – September 27, 2007 – What is the Mayan Calendar? We will explore the origins of the Calendar, the different types of calendars created by the Mayans, and the basic theories of the major modern Mayan Calendar authors and the 2012 end-date.Why does it seem like Time is Speeding Up? In this class, we will explore in detail the theories of Mayan Scholar Carl Johann Calleman, and his book “The Mayan Calendar: The Greatest Mystery of Our Time.” We will study the 6 days and 7 nights of the Galactic Underworld and the Mayan Calendar as a Map of Creation. We will also look into the ‘speeding up of time’ and how the Mayan Calendar explains this phenomenon. This class will culminate in a Meditation uniting us with the Global Brain and the Heart of our Galaxy (Hunab Ku). (Handouts and information will be provided.)

Class Two – October 11, 2007 – What is Sacred or Holy Time and how can we Synch-up with it? In this class we will explore the unique creative energies of each day as described by the 20 Tzolkin and the 13 Tones. We will look at our own personal Day-Sign and discuss ways that we can plug into the cycles of Sacred Time, personally and as a culture.

Class Three – October 25, 2007 – Looking ahead to 2012 – what is ahead for us in the next 5 years? We will look at ways we can successfully work with the intense energies of this time, and will experience a special Guided Meditation where we explore the Hunab Ku - the Heart of our Galaxy and the place where Time originates, according to the Mayans.

Classes are $40 each or $105 if you pay for all 3 in one payment.
Classes cannot be taken individually as they build on each other.
