Mayan Calendar

Description

The Mayan Calendar is much more than a system to mark off the passage of time. It is a prophetic calendar that may help us understand the past and foresee the future. It is a calendar of the ages that tells a story of how the progression of heavens and underworlds conditions the human consciousness and thus the frames for our thought and actions within a given Age. To some people it was predicting the end of the world in December 2012. For others the calendar is forecasting the start of a new era. This game incorporates both views.The object of this game is to create a physical vehicle like a pyramid to focus and spread universal spiritual power. For this task we will need builders, materials, equipment and money. We must work together to build 11 spiritual centers around the planet to ward off the many destructive perils entering from many directions. How much of the Earth did we allow to be destroyed? How much new spiritual consciousness did we bring into being? Includes: 13"x18" board, 4 movers, 2 dice, sheet of 55 diecut pieces (13 building equipment, 13 building materials, 16 building personnel, 13 building finances), 8 player roles, 6 centers destroyed, 11 spiritual power markers, 12 destructive perils markers, 1 of which is used as a calendar marker.Play as friends, not as enemies! Family Pastimes games foster the spirit of cooperation. Players help each other climb a mountain, make a community, complete a space exploration... They never play against each other. At Family Pastimes we believe that people of different ages and abilities should be able to play side by side, each making their best contribution. We are all there together when we finish the game to take joy in our successes and wonder how we might work together even better the next time we play. Thus, Family Pastimes games will prove to be a friendly form of fun.
