Primary School Advent Calendar researchers predict Armageddon on December 25th

Careful study of a Gruffalo-themed chocolate calendar has led many 7-year-old researchers to forecast ‘the end of the world’ on December 25th.

‘The Chocolate just runs out on Tuesday,’ commented Haruki Noonan, who has been studying advent calendars for weeks. ‘After that – who knows?’

Not all primary school children are taking the prediction so seriously though, and playgrounds up and down the country are filled with tiresome tongue-in-cheek references and lame jokes based on pretending to believe the world will really come to an end on December 25th, with the upside of not having to come back to school in January a common theme.

Your celebration of a new age might be a little premature monkey boy!  ;)

The slow wobble of the earth's spin axis on the celestial sphere is independent of the diurnal rotation of the Earth on its own axis and the annual revolution of the earth around the sun. Traditionally this 25,800-year-long cycle is calibrated for the purposes of determining astrological ages by the location of the sun in one of the twelve zodiac constellations at the vernal equinox, which corresponds to the moment the sun rises above the celestial equator, marking the start of spring in the Northern hemisphere each year. Roughly every 2,150 years the sun's position at the time of the vernal equinox will have moved into a new zodiacal constellation. However zodiacal constellations are not uniform in size, leading some astrologers to believe that the corresponding ages should also vary in duration. This however is a contentious issue amongst astrologers.

In 1929 the International Astronomical Union defined the edges of the 88 official constellations. The edge established between Pisces and Aquarius technically locates the beginning of the Aquarian Age around 2600 AD. Many astrologers dispute this approach because of the varying sizes of the zodiacal constellations and overlap between the zodiacal constellations

So I think we will be putting up with fish people celebrations for some time yet...  :)
