Maya Mystery School

of Northern California

  Welcome

The Maya Mystery School of Northern California is an educational network whose purpose and goals are to relay information about the coming 2012 time shift as recorded by the ancient Mayas, to inform the public as to how the Maya and the Mayan sites will play a key role in the preparation for this 2012 shift, and to network with like-minded organizations and entities that are applying the teachings of the ancient mysteries as interpreted by the Maya. We also provide news links to information pertaining to both Mayan and related civilizations, and subsequent lost treasures and archaeological findings.
