My opinion about the Mayans is that it was very different before than now since before it was not a president who ruled but a king and over time everything was modernized as well as the name of the powers.
Not everyone had these kinds of views. Normal didn't have this kind of view. It was the power and greedy hungry leaders. The kingmen, the leaders. Those people had this view. But normal people and citizens did NOT> They were manipulated. I feel this needs to be stated. And it would help natives to see that most people don't want to bother them or harm them. it was the greedy leaders only and their propaganda. You can work with the others and help them see you can respond to kindness and warmth. Don't look at everyone as an enemy. Just those that harmed you.
It's so wild that schools refuse to teach students about the Genocide in this country of the Native People that lived here for thousands of years. Absolutely vile.

This is a great effect. However it is not true that it occurs only at the equinoxes? It happens at other times. I believed for years it was an equinox event but sadly it is not.
