The Aztecs were a powerful empire that flourished in Central America between the 14th and 16th centuries. This civilization left behind many mysterious artifacts and symbols that still arouse interest and are studied by researchers. One of these artifacts, the “Sun Stone” (or “Sun Stone”), inspires many to speculate about the future of humanity and our planet. In this article we will look at how the Aztecs predicted the end of the world using the Sun Stone.
The Sunstone is a huge basalt disk, weighing more than 24 tons, 3.6 meters in diameter and about 1 meter thick, on which a complex system of circles and symbols is depicted. This stone was created by the Aztecs in the 15th century and is believed to have been used to observe the position of the Sun and other celestial bodies, as well as to tell time and create a calendar.
One of the most interesting aspects of Sunstone is its predictive potential. Some researchers claim that the stone allegedly contains predictions about the end of the world. The Aztecs believed that the world went through several eras, each of which ended in a global catastrophe. In their opinion, each era lasted 52 years, after which a new one began. The images on the Sun Stone show the end of the last era, which occurred in 1519 when the Spanish conqueror Hernán Cortés invaded the Aztec Empire.
The stone contains a whole system of symbols and images that the Aztecs used to monitor the position of the Sun and other celestial bodies. The images on the stone are also associated with astronomical events such as solar and lunar eclipses. Studying the stone and the images on it allowed researchers to draw a number of interesting conclusions regarding how the Aztecs predicted the future and the end of the world.
According to research, the Sun Stone contains information about the cycles of the Sun and planets, as well as predictions about the ends of the worlds that should occur in the 13th, 14th and 15th periods. Each of these periods is 52 years, and according to Aztec ideology, each period ends in a global catastrophe.
Thus, according to Aztec ideas, the world has already experienced several eras, each of which ended in a global catastrophe. The last era ended in 1519, when the Spanish conqueror Hernán Cortés invaded the Aztec Empire. The next end of the world was supposed to happen in 2027.
Some researchers claim that the predictions on the Sun Stone may be related to astronomical events. For example, a recent study conducted by Joshua Vincent of the University of Arizona established a connection between solar flares and the ends of eras in Aztec culture. Solar flares are bright flashes on the surface of the Sun and can affect our planet, causing geomagnetic storms and other phenomena.
However, it is worth noting that the Sun Stone is not the only source of Aztec cosmology and doomsday predictions. The Aztecs had many other symbols and artifacts related to astronomy and cosmology that can provide more insight into their worldview and predictions.
Thus, the Sun Stone is a unique artifact that allows us to more deeply understand the Aztec worldview and their ideas about the end of the world. However, it is worth understanding that the Aztec prediction of the end of the world in 2027 has no scientific basis and should not be taken as fact. At present, we do not have sufficient data to assert that the events described on the Sun Stone are directly related to modern astronomical events and the future of our planet.
