About this title

Synopsis

Book Description According to the ancient calendars and mythology of the Maya, the world as we know it ends in 2012. What are these prophecies, and how reliable are they? How many other cultures share the predictions? What should we really expect in the year 2012? The answers to these questions and more can be found in BEYOND 2012, the most comprehensive guide available to the theories behind what many believe could be the most pivotal time in modern history...

For over twenty years, Geoff Stray has been investigating the year 2012 as a time of potentially massive significance for humankind and planet Earth. This investigation has revealed that several civilisations across the world have calendars, myths, prophecies and visions connected with 2012. Will it be global catastrophe or spiritual transformation? Discerning and detailed, BEYOND 2012 is a must-read for anyone striving to understand the predicted transition, the importance of our times and what it all means for humanity.

With a foreword by John Major Jenkins, BEYOND 2012 includes over 200 illustrations, plus a selection of colour plates, and it is arranged in four parts: Ancient Calendars and Prophecies; 2012 Theories; Beyond The Veil; and Diagnosis. With 22 chapters, a large notes and references section, bibliography, index and three appendices, this is a thorough investigation into the meaning behind the year 2012, which is the time when the 5,125-year 13-baktun cycle of the Maya comes to its conclusion.

About the Author

Geoff Stray has been studying the meaning of the year 2012 since 1982. Around 1996, he started to compile the information into a booklet called Beyond 2012. In September 2000, he made it available on the internet via the website Diagnosis2012.

Since then, Diagnosis2012 has become renowned as the most comprehensive database available on 2012, and has gathered input from every corner of the globe. Geoff has given presentations on the topic across England and in countries as far afield as Belgium, USA and Peru. He has written articles for SC Magazine, Salvia Divinorum magazine, Kindred Spirit, and Avalon Rising. In his spare time, he makes handmade footwear.

Geoff currently lives in East Sussex, in the UK.
