The Aztec Calendar Handbook
A manual for the Aztec calendar that explores the myths, legends, and history behind the ancient calendar, and includes technical drawings, a glossary, timeline, and an extensive bibliography.
Time, History, and Belief in Aztec and Colonial Mexico
Based on their enormously complex calendars that recorded cycles of many kinds, the Aztecs and other ancient Mesoamerican civilizations are generally believed to have had a cyclical, rather than linear, conception of time and history. This boldly revisionist book challenges that understanding. Ross Hassig offers convincing evidence that for the Aztecs time was predominantly linear, that it was manipulated by the state as a means of controlling a dispersed tribute empire, and that the Conquest cut off state control and severed the unity of the calendar, leaving only the lesser cycles.

The Real Toltec Prophecies
This moment has been prophesized for thousands of years. Learn how to heal, thrive and embrace a new, awakened reality with Toltec wisdom. The Aztec calendar is divided into natural time cycles known as Suns, each lasting 6,625 years. We're undergoing the shift from the Fifth Sun to the Sixth Sun, a 29-year transitional period that is both challenging humankind and offering new opportunities for healing and realignment. In this book, Sergio Magaña (Ocelocoyotl) explores the ancient Toltec wisdom and insight around this long-anticipated transition, outlining the global events already evidencing change and highlighting the significance of the years 2012, 2021, and 2026. He offers guidance through the movements of the Suns, the underworlds, the collective unconscious, and the unresolved imbalances we're currently navigating, and shares ancient breathing practices and lucid dreaming exercises to help us reconnect with our true selves. Through embracing this vital inner work, we're taking the first steps toward dreaming our waking world into existence, a world in which we can heal, thrive, and look within to create a new stage of collective consciousness.

The Aztec Calendar and Other Solar Monuments
A unique book that brings together two of the most important expressions of the pre-Hispanic era: The Aztec Calendar and the solar symbol Nahui Ollin . Time has transformed the Aztec Calendar into a symbol associated with ruthless human sacrifices performed by the Mexicas. Well-documented studies by these two talented scholars uncover the true purpose of the stone and the historical events which resulted in the creation of this marvelous monolith. This is the only book that brings together photographs from other important solar monuments from multiple private collections and various museums around the world. To date, there is no other book that provides such a precise and fascinating description of the meaning of the Aztec Calendar and of Nahui Ollin. The book includes a unique booklet with six transparencies which in full colour highlight each of the six concentric circles of the Aztec Calendar.
Western Mesoamerican Calendars and Writing Systems
Mesoamerica is one of the few places to witness the independent invention of writing. Bringing together new research, papers discuss the writing systems of Teotihuacan, Mixteca Baja, the Epiclassic period and Aztec writing of the Postclassic. These writing systems represent more than a millennium of written records and literacy in Mesoamerica.
