    Synopsis

    What Will Happen in 2012?

    Are we truly coming to the end of a cosmic cycle? Will there be an age of awakening, a new step in human evolution, or even an end to the world we know? For years, archaeologists have known the Mayan calendar predicts this date as the end of an era on Earth. Yet today, more and more researchers, spiritual explorers, and even scientists are witnessing signs that 2012 will mark a critical shift in the history of our planet. Now, for the first time, the leading authorities on the 2012 phenomenon present their insights about this enigmatic date in a single book: The Mystery of 2012.

    Featuring articulate and lucid essays from dozens of renowned experts on the question of 2012, this invaluable anthology offers all the information necessary to examine the mystery from every angle—spiritual, economic, ecological, and scientific—and to decide for yourself whether 2012 will end with a whimper or a bang. In The Mystery of 2012, you will discover the startling predictions and revelations of prominent thinkers, including:

    • John Major Jenkins’ journey to the source for answers—the original Mayan calendar and the perennial wisdom it embodies

    • Gregg Braden’s examination of the scientific evidence for a shift in the Earth’s magnetic field, and how it will affect all life

    • Barbara Marx Hubbard’s and Peter Russell’s explorations of the accelerating pace of evolution—why we may literally be transforming into a new species

    • Ecologist Joanna R. Macy’s vision of “The Great Turning,” and how we can take part in this shift to a life-sustaining culture
    • Daniel Pinchbeck’s investigation of the shift of consciousness that will be necessary for humanity to survive 2012

    • Jean Houston’s predictions on the coming “Jump Time,” and her practical advice for dealing with the impact it will have on your life

    • Corinne MacLaughlin's discussion of using spirituality and consciousness to influence business and political trends, how these arenas are already shifting and what we can expect in the next decade

    • James O'Dea's inquiry into the rich time of healing ahead as humanity responds to an overtaxed Nature's "wake-up call"- the time for which we each were born

    What, if anything, is in store for us in 2012? Whether you are a skeptic, a true believer, or simply “2012-curious,” The Mystery of 2012 offers you a thought-provoking and comprehensive exploration into the possibilities of this approaching landmark in human history.

    The Go-To Book for All Things 2012by Cynthia_Sue_Larson

    12/04/2009: THE MYSTERY OF 2012 enlightens us with essays written by 26 leading luminaries in the field. While some books feature just one model, framework, or theory, this one invites the reader to explore a vast panoply of varied perspectives. Curious about ancient Mayan prophecies? Interested in alchemy? Wondering about the Bible Code? All this and more is described in fascinating detail in THE MYSTERY OF 2012, along with a rich variety of information on sacred timekeeping, prophecy, and visions of what we may find on the other side of 2012.

    We are approaching the end of a 26,000 year precessional cycle in which the Earth has been revolving around the center of the Milky Way galaxy, and the wonder of this extraordinary event in human history is that we are alive during this magnificent "New Year's Eve" on such a scale that affords us a glimpse of the great scale of this beautiful world in this amazing universe.

    I am particularly inspired by Meg Blackburn Losey's essay on awakening to the greater reality, as she describes how we are already witnessing signs and evidence of the evolution of human consciousness. Some of these signs include deja vu and something she calls "reality glitches," which others refer to as reality shifts. Such shifts include increased evidence of differences between what we remember happening and what actual evidence shows has occurred: "We enter into another room to do something and find that it is already done, yet we have no memory of doing it." Losey explains that people are peeking into other realities, and some are experiencing dramatic changes in their entire reality, seemingly overnight.

    I recommend THE MYSTERY OF 2012 to everyone intrigued by this Shift of the Ages... this Great Awakening... who feels as James O'Dea puts it they were born for such a time as this.

    I Also Recommend: Mayan Factor: Path Beyond Technology.
