Well, not exactly now. Unless you're reading this on November 13th, 2008. Because that's when it starts.
The Mayan Calendar can be thought of as a consciousness calendar; it tracks the psychological evolution of our species as a collective. As a refresher, I'd recommend checking out
our previous article on this topic, as well as
our article on Mayan Calendar and warring dualities.
During the sixth day, we are set to come out of the darkness of the previous year (the fifth night). During the fifth night, we saw the collapse of major institutions; the sixth day is when we will begin to see the emergence of what will replace the fifth night. It is expected to be a renaissance of sorts.
There are many opinions on how this will play out. My personal opinion is that we will see the collapse continue and deepen, but we will also see the resistance flourish, and make real cultural changes, which will serve as the foundation for our post-2012 reality.
Here are some excerpts from what others are saying:

What does this shift into the 6th Day mean for us who are holding consciousness of the Mayan Calendar system? Having just returned from the 2012 Conference in San Francisco, I can tell you that the upcoming 6th Day energies of the current Galactic Underworld are closely connected to the Hippie Movement of the 60’s and 70’s. The 6th day energies of the Planetary Underworld (1952-1972) flow through this upcoming 6th day in this Galactic Underworld. Stepping back to the 6th day of the National Underworld (829 AD - 1223 AD), there was the “Awakening” from the Dark Ages influenced by the expansion of Christianity to Northern and Eastern Europe to add to these energies.
If you lived through the 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s, you can remember the giant step that was taken in our consciousness during these three decades. Well, hold on to your tye-died t-shirt because we are moving into the new “Renaissance of Advanced Unifying Synthesis” brought forward by the Goddess, Yohualticitl, or the Goddess of Birth (Calleman, The Transformation of Consciousness). This 6th day brings the energy of Flowering, (remember Flower Power??) and it heralds blooming or vast advancements of the intent of the cycle. Consciousness is getting an up-grade and we will be able to watch it happen and participate fully.

The Sixth Day (2009) we return to a period of "Enlightenment." This is the time of flowers for the plant. For you personally, it was adolescence. In human history this was the creation of the first tools, the first attempts at agriculture and constructed shelter, the Renaissance and, most recently, the Flower Children Movement of the 60's. The Sixth Night (2110), one last period of Dark in the cycle follows. In the plant's life the flowers wilt and die setting the stage for fruit development or of seedpods that will dry. This is what happened to the Maya civilization right on queue. Throughout human history there have been conflicts and revolts during this period, the most recent of these having been the Viet Nam War.

Following the Fifth NIGHT large groups of people will in the Sixth DAY break away from hierarchical control and guided by their intuition find a path towards increased wholeness. This is when the hierarchies will really start to break down, probably largely in a chaotic way. Yet, this is exactly the kind of chaos that is needed for the recreation of an Enlightened world.
