what the Mayans taught me about 2021 (and what we must do)

In this episode of the "Into the Vortex" podcast, Aaron Doughty frames the coming year as a pivotal shift in planetary consciousness, drawing on Mayan calendar cycles, the Law of One’s “harvest,” and the concept of parallel timelines popularized by Bashar. He argues that humanity is moving from a third‑density, dualistic reality into a fourth‑density, vibrationally aligned state, and that individuals can influence which timeline they experience by raising their own vibration. Doughty weaves personal anecdotes—living in Tulum, feeling a deep connection to Mayan ruins, a visionary experience with San Pedro in Costa Rica, and an anticipated trip to Machu Picchu—to illustrate his intuitive link to ancient wisdom. Throughout, he promotes a 21‑day "Raise Your Vibration" challenge (starting Jan 21, 2021) that includes video lessons, homework, a High Vibe Tribe Facebook group, and several bonuses. He also critiques current power structures, suggesting that entrenched elites will resist the energetic shift. The episode blends spiritual teaching, esoteric references, personal storytelling, and a clear call‑to‑action for listeners to join the challenge and collectively co‑create a higher‑vibration reality.
Chapters
There was a call that was put out from Mother Earth herself, which, as the Law of One talks about, as many other material talks about, Earth herself is an actual being of energy we are all connected to. At the greatest level, we're all connected. We're all one consciousness. And what was happening is we were literally destroying Mother Gaia. Welcome back. Another episode on Into the Vortex with Aaron Doughty. For those of you that don't know, we recently changed the name to Into the Vortex. It's the last time we're ever changing the name. I've been rebranding a whole bunch of stuff I'm doing right now, and that's it. It's Into the Vortex, which I think is very synchronous because I live in Sedona, Arizona, which has a whole bunch of vortexes. Vortexes represent high vibrational energy, and the whole entire intention of the podcast and all the content I create is to help you raise your vibration. So Into the Vortex with Aaron Doughty is it. It's your place to go to listen to high vibe information to elevate your level of consciousness. That's the intention at least. And in this episode, we're gonna be talking about the Mayans and 2021. We're gonna be talking about what I think will happen in 2021 moving forward. I'm also gonna be cross-referencing like 3 or 4 different philosophies and books that confirm what I'm about to share with you. 'Cause I know some of it will sound kind of out there to some of you. But I believe right now we're going through a shift in consciousness on the planet, energetically, literally, in very powerful ways. And I think the Mayans knew about this. The Mayans were astrologers and astronomers, and they were able to see these different time vortices and these different time cycles. And they knew that this was a time when everything collapsed, the time literally collapsed, and now anything can happen. And this is what a lot of other ancient civilizations talked about. Literally moving into a new era. I think it's called Kali Yuga, the Age of Aquarius, whatever we wanna call it. Now is one of the most exciting times to be alive ever on the planet. And as I record this, we are getting ready to move into 2021. And I think it is more important than ever for us to raise our vibration. One thing that Bashar said recently, I had a session with Bashar with my buddy Victor at the beginning of the year, and he said there's many different timelines that exist, parallel realities that exist. And as time goes on, these parallel realities are gonna be splitting And the idea is to get on the parallel reality you want, which means being the energy you want. Because as time goes on, they're gonna, it's kind of like train tracks that were together that begin to veer off. And you wanna make sure that you're on the timeline you want, because if you're not, as time goes on, it's gonna get further and further for you to hop train tracks. And eventually you're just gonna, that's the idea is that we wanna be on the train track that we really prefer to be in. Now, With that philosophy and me understanding, you know, life is honestly, I know there's a lot of craziness in the world, but life can really continue to get better for you if you're on that energy stream. And you realize a lot of the fear, a lot of the stuff being projected out in the world has an agenda. And even though some of this stuff is actually happening, there's people actually getting sick and all of this stuff, realize that a lot of it is being even more accentuated to keep you in fear, to keep you afraid and to increase your belief that you can even get this. And belief has a very powerful effect on our immune system. And if we're in fear, guess what? Our immune system's even weaker. And it's important to be aware of all of this. But the main thing that I think we can do is to raise our vibration. That's why if you're listening to this right now, then the very first 21 days of 2021, we're gonna be doing the 21-day Raise Your Vibration Challenge, which is where me and thousands of other people are gonna be going through this process together, where we create a container where we raise our vibration. There's 21 lessons. And with these lessons, there's homework where you do and you're held accountable for it by posting in a High Vibe Tribe Facebook group. And you'll have access to this High Vibe Tribe for life. There's people all over the world, many people that actually meet up and are friends now. And so if you felt like you've been missing like a high vibe tribe and you wanna be a part of that, if you want to go through a process for letting go, not just YouTube videos, but a process for letting go of the past, letting go of, attachment, letting go. I teach you step-by-step how to do that. And we go through this process of letting go together to really let go of the pain and craziness of 2020, to wire in the highest vibrational versions of us. So it's 21 Days to a New Higher Vibrational You, and you can join right now. It's one of the last days to join. That's when I'll have this episode go up. You can join, go to aarondoughty.com/21days or raiseyourvibrationchallenge.com. Or click the link below, join the 21-day Raise Your Vibration Challenge for the first 21 days of 2021.

I talk about Peru. I talk about ascension in 2012. I talk about what's really happening, I think, in 2021, the potential, I think, of the energy we're gonna be feeling. I talk about the sun and how the sun is changing our consciousness. I talk about the Dolores Cannon material. We get into it, we go deep. So almost an hour-long episode, and I'm super excited to get into it with you. So with that being said, let's get into another episode of Into the Vortex with Aaron Doughty right now. The Mayans knew about what is happening right now in the planet, and they knew about 2021 as well. In general, this timeframe that we are in, We are going through a similar process that the Mayans went through many, many years ago. And what the Mayans were really good at is they were really good at studying astronomy and astrology. And that's why they have the Mayan calendars. And what they were able to do is map these different time vortexes, these different time cycles. And they were able to see that at this time we're in right now, this is where a big pivot happens. This is where a big shift in energy happens. And they knew about this, and that's why their calendars, that's why this is something that normally we feel, and there's a lot of hype around when it comes to the Mayans. I remember back in even 2012, there were many people that believed that 2012 was literally like the ending of the world. Almost like some type of rapture or something. And if you've listened to some of my earlier episodes, I talk about how both my buddy Victor Otto and I were in a similar camp with this. We were very ungrounded, went through a spiritual awakening, and we were convinced that we were all as a collective going to be moving into a higher state of consciousness. But the challenge was, is we thought because we were so spiritually ungrounded, And there were actually millions of people in the world that believe the same thing, but believe that it was an actual physical thing. Like one day it's gonna be moving into a higher state of consciousness. And then you look around and it's like, we're all in like 5D or something like that. And what we didn't realize at the time, many of us I think, is this is actually more of a metaphor of the energy of what was really happening. We really are moving into a new era of energy, But in this episode, I wanna explain to you some of the different facets of what I believe is going to happen in 2021 and what the Mayans believed was gonna happen in 2021. I feel a deep connection to the Mayans. Let me just kind of say that as well. I've spent a month last year in Tulum, Mexico. I've always, you know, the Mayan ruins that is on the beach in Mexico, Before I even knew what it was, there was an old iPad. I have a new iPad now, but I have an old iPad that I had from like, I don't even know when iPad came out, but like 10 years. I still have it. It's not here right now, but I still even have, it's in Vegas, but it still has the same photo that has been the background for like 10 years now. And the photo, I never knew what it was. I just felt gravitationally like pulled into it. It was the photo of the Mayan, like the Mayan ruins on the beach in Tulum, Mexico. I never knew what it was. I just felt connected to it. Then what happened is last year I traveled for a month, lived there for a month, and I just felt such a calling there. I felt such a connection there and I didn't really understand it. But then I remembered the wallpaper. And when I saw the ruins, I was like, holy shit, this is the same wallpaper that's been on my iPad that I felt so connected to. And then there were different synchronicities where there may be past life connections there, or parallel, whatever we call those. And I just felt such a connection to Mexico. I've also, I'm gonna get into this in a little bit, but felt such a connection to Machu Picchu, Peru. Even in the room I sleep in, there's literally, I feel very at home with this huge canvas of Machu Picchu. I've never been there yet, but I feel such a connection to it. And I never really knew why, but I'm gonna kind of explain the whole connections that I've been making recently. However, one of those connections is I was actually recently in Costa Rica doing plant medicine. And I did 2 nights of ayahuasca, 1 day of what's called huachuma or San Pedro, which is like my favorite medicine. It's the San Pedro cactus. And we do it in a very shamanistic ceremony. It's like literally a 12-hour day. And it was like one of the most magical days of my life. And it was in Costa Rica where it's legal and all that stuff. And doing it, I didn't understand why I felt such a connection to Machu Picchu, but then it made sense because the huachumero, the guy that served the medicine, served or spent 10 to 15 years studying with the tribes and the people in Peru to do what he does. And in that moment, I realized that I also had a connection to Huachuma and, or San Pedro, and that of Machu Picchu. So for me, there's, I think a lot of people as well that went through and believed maybe we were going to ascend in 2012. I think a lot of those people may actually have parallel connections. You know, all time exists now, but we all have parallel connections to different time streams, I think. And in the Mayan civilization, maybe many of us have a connection there, 'cause I definitely feel a deep connection or reflection to that of the Mayan civilization. And then also Machu Picchu and the people of Peru. And even though I haven't been to Peru yet, I know that when I go, it'll be very, very spiritually activating for me, I guess I could say. But in general, when we talk about what is happening right now on the planet, we are shifting into a higher state of consciousness. And this is also something that was talked about in the Law of One material. So the Law of One are channeled books from the '80s, and they are some of the most profound channeled material of all time. There's 5 different books. And it's a physicist that's asking questions and the answers are coming through his wife who is the one channeling the information. I know to many of you that might sound very esoteric, but with a lot of channeled information, what I recommend is you read it, you listen to it, and you see if it resonates. Not necessarily that you have to believe the whole story, like is this really the whole entire dynamic of it coming through a person, but does the information resonate with your heart, not just your mind? And that's been a powerful way of kind of discerning between some of this, because I think in the physical reality that we're in, the way that we communicate or the way that we connect to higher consciousness in the earlier stages of human consciousness shifting, which is what we're going through right now, is it literally comes through the people and that's one of the first ways of contact before then it moves into different avenues to where maybe it comes through or maybe one day we have face-to-face contact with ETs or something like that. So it's kind of an interesting dance or dynamic, but one thing that the Law of One series talked about is how in this lifetime, there's something that is called the harvest. The harvest is where we have the potential as a collective to go from what is called a third density state of consciousness into a fourth density state of consciousness. Now, the third density state of consciousness is a lot of what we've experienced in the past. The duality, the sense of control, the good, the bad, the light, the dark, the dream of separation. And what happens is this dream of separation that we may feel with everybody else when we move into fourth density, we more so realize things are about vibration. We realize that it's about alignment, synchronicity. We realize more about our own energy. We find that we're in the right place at the right time. Things become more flexible. Life becomes more dreamlike. And what is happening and what the Law of One books talk about is that in this life, there's seeds in a way that are planted to where we can move into a higher state of consciousness which is considered going from third density state of consciousness into fourth density state of consciousness. And that's what it talked about in the Law of One. And in a way, it kind of gave this barometer that said that if you want to move from those different states, from third density to fourth density, the key was to be 51% or more service to others rather than being 51% service to self. Now in general, I think that those terminologies, I think that the percentages, I think they're not irrelevant, but I think that people get too hyped up about it. Like, am I 49%? Oh my goodness, if I'm not 2% more, I'm not gonna ascend or something like that. I don't think it's like that. I think it's when you have the awareness that we're all connected and you realize that what you put out is what you get back, you treat people a little bit different. You don't treat people in narcissistic ways because you realize that when you are gaslighting someone else or you're making someone else feel less than, you're doing that to another version of yourself. And when you move into fourth density, that's kind of what you realize. And just in general, that's kind of what the prerequisite is. And I think many of you listening to this content right now, if you're hearing this, then you're most likely of that ascending, you know, the ascending train. The challenge is that people on the planet are going to want to retain the power with the old vestiges of energy. So the old ways of energy, of manipulation, of control, of the media, of a lot of the stuff going on right now. You know, there's people that have and have had power that are losing their power right now behind the scenes that we're not really aware of in the media necessarily, 'cause the media is controlled. There's a narrative there. And what is happening is some of these narcissistic people do not want to give up that power and control. Doing everything they can, including the last cards up their sleeve to retain that power, which I think is what is happening right now. And what I think will happen is the energy's gonna continue to shift. The energy that is here now is so much higher than it was a couple years ago. And the energy being higher means that there's a certain amount of integrity, there's a certain amount of energy that is necessary for things to move forward in a certain way. And I think that the old energy dynamics are falling apart and they'll continue to, but in general, the thing that I really wanted to share is, you know, this is something that the Law of One points to. The Mayans were big into astrology and astronomy, and they talked about cycles of time and how this was gonna be a huge pivotal moment of shift in energy. There's the connections that I think many of us have, you know, I'll transition as well to different teachings just so you guys can see the parallels here as well. But I believe there was a civilization in Peru, Machu Picchu, that may have also ascended into a higher level of consciousness. Here's the difference. When the people of Machu Picchu did it, When the people of the Mayans did it, they may have actually done it in body, meaning in body they transitioned to a higher state of consciousness where they were not physically here anymore. They say that the Mayans had utensils, had structures, had a lot of things left, and they moved into a higher state of consciousness. And back in the day, that was a template that I think was maybe laid or All time exists now. So as we're going through the shift in consciousness, we're connecting to a parallel time stream when the Mayans ascended into a higher state of consciousness and Machu Picchu, Peru civilization there. However, the difference is that they did it in body and then went to a higher state. I believe that we as a collective consciousness will do this in body and we are not necessarily leave this reality and then go into like some 5D wispy, you know, like flowy, we're now just energy forms. I think that we're doing this in body. And I think that this lifetime can literally be one of the most magical lifetimes that we've ever had in physicality. However, the 21-day challenge starts on January 21st for the first 21 days. And what we're gonna be doing is going through, there's different video lessons with that of accountability for step-by-step how to let go of the old, of all the 2020 craziness. A lot of it's shadow work, but a lot of it's like 21 days really of letting go of the old to then wire in the new. And what makes it unique is that there's accountability involved with a high vibe tribe Facebook group where you do and actually post photos of you doing different things. And there creates a container where thousands of people are letting go of the old, and it is one of the most magical things I've ever launched. Over 3,500 people joined in August, and now we're relaunching it. And you could join to wire in the highest vibrational reality in 2021. And the first 21 days of 2021, we're gonna be wiring in with the 21 Day Raise Your Vibration Challenge. I know it's a lot of 2021s, but if you're seeing this right now, then now is one of the last days you can join. So what you can do is you can go to aarondoughty.com/21days, aarondoughty.com/21days, 2-1-D-A-Y-S. Join, or you can go to raiseyourvibrationchallenge.com, I believe as well.
