I began my research into the phenomenon of 2012 in the year 1998 when on August 27th the earth was suddenly jolted by a neutron star for five minutes knocking out satellites and power stations throughout the earth. In the Hebrew calendar the date was the fifth day in the month of Elul when the sun is in the constellation of Virgo. Later I would connect this five minute interval one the fifth day to the time when Mars made its closest approach to the earth precisely five years to the day—August 27, 2003.

The years 1998 and 2003 are both years in the Hebrew calendar with significant hints of cabalistic meaning. The year 1998/5758 divided by three renders 666 and when the letters used to produce the number 5758 in Hebrew are spelled out the name Nochus/Serpent appears with the same gematria as Moshiach/Anointed. The following year, 1999 which is 666 upside down spelled out Satan/Oppose. The year 2003 in the Hebrew calendar 5763 was indicative to the culmination of the sexual strength of the animal. It was the year in which America launched their war against the world in Iraq while Mars, Roman god of war came closest to the earth.

The end of the Mayan calendar is also directly connected to the number 666 by virtue of its beginning and end. According to the ancient Babylonian calendar, from which the 6000 year old Hebrew calendar stems and still to this day sports those ancient names familiar in the time of Gilgamesh, the Mayan calendar began in the year 666 from the creation of the first human upon planet earth and ends 106 years after the last occurrence of the 666 in the Hebrew calendar which was 1906.

Many great things happened in the year 1906: the San Francisco earthquake, the largest earthquake ever recorded; Einstein publishes E=Mc2; Picasso discovers Cubism and the Zohar-Book of Secret is first translated into Hebrew from Aramaic. Contrary to common opinion the number 666 is not a number of destruction, but a number indicating vivacity: together they make up the number 18—Chai/Life and in general is indicative of sexual energy.

The year 2012 comes 106 years later conjunct to the number 72 related to the essence of the human being derived from the cube as explained in the Zohar Book-of Secret; in the year 2012/5772, which is a mere 228 years from the end of the Hebrew calendar, the Mayan calendar ends. The meaning of these intersecting numbers and dates is directly related to the phenomenon of Moshiach/Annointed and the new light being conveyed to the earth through the sudden occurrence of the 1111. In the year 5666/1906 a great teacher asked his students to drink four glasses of wine because the Four Alephim/1111 was descending upon the earth.
