"There are two popular misconceptions regarding the Galactic Alignment. One of these states that the alignment is with the Galactic Center. It is not, it is actually with the galactic equator. The astrological conjunction of the solstice with Galactic Center takes place in the 23rd century.

The other example of misinformation states that this galactic alignment occurs in 2012 and this is why the Maya calendar ends then. There are two problems with this. The alignment occurs a good thirteen years before 2012. The Maya calendar is not off by this many years! This thirteen year period is actually accounted for in the Maya calendar. This information is available to those who have been initiated into how the Maya Calendar actually works."
