Predicting Baby Gender With The Chinese Pregnancy Calendar

For many parents expecting their first child, the idea of having all nine months of patience to find the baby's sex is not one that can be considered. It seems that many cultures around the globe have perfected various methods for predicting the sex of a baby, apart from the scientific ones. In fact, it is estimated that 50-70% of the parents know how to find out whether their baby will be a boy or a girl.

Some use the needle trick- hold a needle by a thread and ask someone to keep it above your head; if the needle swings back and forth a girl will come, if the needle is spinning, prepare for a boy.

Others read pregnancy signs as morning sickness- if this symptom is a problem during pregnancy you're expecting a girl. The premise that supports this theory is based on the idea that during pregnancy a woman's body is 'flooded' with auxiliary hormones that come from her daughter. These hormones aggravate this symptom, while the body tries to get used to it.

The Truth About the Mayan Calendar Doomsday Prediction

Everyone seems to be worried about the recent prediction that the world will end in 2012. Some doomsday writers are using the Mayan calendar to support their claims. However, you should be aware of a few facts, before you start planning for Armageddon.

The Mayas studied astronomy and had a complicated mathematical system, but they were not able to predict the future. If they had that ability, they would have taken measures to prevent the collapse of their own civilization before the post-classic period. By the 1000 A.D., the Great Maya system had collapsed, and peoples migrated outside the city centers. Historians, anthropologists and archeologists still debate over the cause. Some claim it was a result of warfare, while others believe it was a direct result of environmental changes and land overuse.

The Mayas used several different calendars, not just one. The Tzolk'in calendar is based on a cycle of 260 days. One interesting theory is that it is based on the female gestation period, if it is counted from the first missed menstrual cycle to the birth. The days in the cycle are numbered from one to thirteen, starting over again at one. This calendar tracked religious ceremonies.

The Therapeutic Effects of 2011 Calendars

The power of the printed image is one that many people around the world rely on in many ways, and one of the most important benefits derived from the image is that of therapy. Many of us live our lives surrounded by mundane things, and sourcing images of beauty or splendour is something many of us do in order to combat this. As part of this therapy, 2011 calendars have formed a key part of this for many people.

The calendar is an ever present item in many people's homes, and while it is relied upon primarily for keeping tabs on the date, one of the real draws of the calendar is the fact that it provides the owner with stimulating visual material. 2011 calendars, like the calendars that have come in previous years, give people the opportunity (and indeed excuse) to have a new image on their wall every 30 days. While many of us have art of photos on our walls - we seldom change them. The calendar therefore, allows us to have fresh and exciting imagery on our walls.

What we choose on our 2011 calendars really depends on what kind of person we are. These items often provide us with a way to express our ambitions or desires. For example, someone who has a calendar of dramatic cityscapes may be a highly ambitious person, who does not live, perhaps, in a dramatic city.

Similarly, for those who do live in heavily built up areas, their 2011 calendars provides an outlet to express where they may rather be - on holiday in the wilds of Scotland, perhaps, or in some other beautiful, wide open space.
