2014: The life and adventures of an incarnated angel   "Many Terrans are still approaching the year 2011 with fear and trepidation. It is not too late to realise that our past, our present and our future are of our own creation, at every moment and through each thought, action/non-action and word spoken ....we can, in fact, determine our present and our future ... both individually and collectively. “2014: the life and adventures of an incarnated angel” is a work of fiction, depicting one possible reality that we can create. It is not meant to be a prophecy that we should self-fulfil, nor is it written for entertainment value alone. It is designed to provoke reflection. The solutions are only to be found in each and every one of us – beyond the illusions and distractions of individual and collective separation ..."

2012: Crossing the Bridge to the Future   " ... The book begins in August 1987 on the slopes of Mount Shasta in Northern California as Borax witnesses the Harmonic Convergence, a spiritual and astrological event sparking a 26-year countdown to 2012, the year that marks the “end of history” in the Mayan calendar. Signs indicate that a “major energy shift” is occurring, a turning point in Earth’s collective karma powerful enough to change the global perspective of humankind. Borax’s mountaintop experiences compel him to seek solutions to his personal turmoil. He meets Lonsdale and together they launch a mystery school to study how the twenty-five-year period between 1987 and 2012 can be used for a cosmic purging of negativity to release humanity’s core forces and restore universal balance ..."

Serpent of Light: Beyond 2012  "According to the author, just as our bodies have a kundalini energy, so does the Earth. The "serpent of light" is the earth's kundalini energy. Once at home in Lemuria, this energy moved to Atlantis and then Tibet. From there, it followed the Dalai Lama out of Tibet to journey to its new location in the Andes Mountains. Edgar Cayce tells us that the Andes Mountains were once a part of Lemuria. What does it mean that this energy has “come home”? The author reveals stunning information in this book including that, according to the Mayans, the important date to watch is not December 21, 2012, but February 19, 2013." arebookstore.com (site accessed Apr 2008)

The Mayan Prophecies by Adrian Gilbert and Maurice Cotterell  "The authors demonstrate how the Mayan Holy Number 1,366,560 days, known as the birth of Venus and the basis of their calendar, indicates ancient knowledge of sun spot cycles and their effect on the human race....Examining the archaeological record, they find further evidence for linking the origins of Mayan civilization with the mythical lost continent of Atlantis, which according to Plato was destroyed in a series of catastrophes. They reveal that the Mayan calendar prophesies the end of our own "Age of the Jaguar", the fifth and final "sun" in 2012 AD. This, according to Cotterell's sun-spot theories, will be brought about by a sudden reversal in the earth's magnetic field. knowledge.co.uk (site accessed May 2007)

Apocalypse 2012 by Lawrence E Joseph   "If there were a chance that opening this book could set off a chain of events that would lead to Apocalypse, to the end of Life as we know it, would you be tempted? Finger poised uncertainly above the flashing red button? How about if the Apocalypse promised to result in a new age of enlightenment, a Heaven on Earth like never before?

Personally, I’ll take the security of my cozy life over a chance at nirvana. But status quo may no longer be an option, for any of us. This book will convince you that there is a nonnegligible chance that the year 2012 will be more tumultuous, catastrophic, and, quite possibly, revelatory, than any other year in human history ...."
