21 December 2012 marks the start of a new 20-year transition period that takes us to 2032, when the new Golden Age truly begins. On the winter solstice of 2012 the planets Neptune, Pluto and Uranus are configured to interact. In Transition to the Golden Age in 2032: Worldwide Forecasts for the Economy, Climate, Politics and Spirituality (Findhorn Press $14.95), her sequel to 2012 & Beyond, Diana Cooper guides us through the changes we are likely to experience in this 20-year period. With specific information for each country and many cities this is the definitive guide to assist the reader in moving through the potential pitfalls of the transition years to reach the Golden Age.

What follows is the true story of an experience I had while participating in a shamanic ayahuasca ceremony. I believe that the visions and information I received at that time have extreme importance for humanity as we approach the event horizon of 2012 and a planetary alignment with the galactic center. As with all information of this kind, I suggest that you weigh it on the scales of your heart and higher self. If it resonates, you can use it to better prepare yourself for a possible future scenario. If not, let it go and continue your search for truth elsewhere.

I would like to share a bit about who I am. I am best known for my healing angelic harp music, which I have been playing around the world ever since I was contacted by a group of angelic beings and taught to play the harp by them while living in the solitude of the Sedona canyons. I was given this mission some 20 years ago, and it continues to be a great honor to share the angels’ music with receptive souls the world over during this time of great planetary awakening.

Publisher's Description: Explaining what will happen after the spiritual changes predicted to occur in the year 2012 according to ancient prophecies, this handbook shows how to tap into the energies of the universe to gain understanding of the changes taking place.

Exciting new spiritual energies will be coming into the planet and influencing specific areas, and economic, political, and climatic shifts are also predicted to occur. Renowned cosmic scholar Diana Cooper includes a time frame for this massive transition that is anticipated to last until Earth moves into the fifth dimensional frequency in 2032.

From what to expect to how to prepare, the teachings in this book serve as guidance for the next 20 years, so that people will be able to attune themselves to the spiritual forces that are coming.

2012 is here. Finally. After many years of anticipation, sensationalism, foreboding, titillation, and wild prophecies, we’ve reached the end of the Mayan calendar. The era of momentous astrological configurations. World upheaval. Apocalyptic destruction. Dissolution of the world as we know it. Mass landing of UFOs. The spiritual ascension of humanity. The dawn of a new age. And on and on and on. . .

Prophets, authors, soothsayers, shamans, and Hollywood have had a field day predicting, explaining, and dramatizing the events to come. Will this year be a turning point in human history?  Massive suffering leading to spiritual resurrection? The annihilation of evil and the restoration of virtue? The second coming of Christ? A redux of the Y2K dud?  Just another year?

Humanity's Great Shift to the Age of Conscious Evolution

Publisher's Description:

Explaining how the planet’s myriad crises are actually the birth pangs of a new Earth, this inspired exploration is Barbara Marx Hubbard’s prophetic call for a planetary shift. It explores the aftermath of the coming planetary renaissance that she has heralded for decades, and introduces an established popular global movement to cocreate a massive transition around a symbolic “Planetary Birthday” event on December 22, 2012. 

This volume features 12 evolutionary pioneers’ commentary on the author’s key themes of collective birth and conscious evolution, aiming to foster the emergence of a sustainable planetary civilization. Featured contributors include Ervin Laszlo, Michael Beckwith, Jack Canfield, Jean Houston, and Neale Donald Walsch.

We have arrived at December, 2012, the month prophesied as a turning point in human history. Much ado has been devoted to the December 21st solstice date. The Mayan calendar is said to end here; some soothsayers predict the end of the world; others predict the beginning. Groups are gathering at the Great Pyramid in Egypt, Machu Picchu, and sacred sites around the planet. All year people have been asking me, “What do you think will happen on December 21st?” I recently picked up a hitchhiker who asked me this very question. Millions of people are wondering, some are fearing, and others are hoping.

I believe there is a core of truth to the import of this date, sprinkled with a generous helping of bunk. Perhaps the date is less about cosmic significance, and more of a seminar in which we face the hopes and fears we have projected onto it. To those who have asked me about it, I suggest that we take our power back from externally-issued predictions and astrological configurations, and tap into a place of choice within us. What would you like to happen? How can you participate in making it happen?  Are you waiting for God or the planets to change your life, or a savior to descend from a cloud and rescue you from hardship?  Or are you willing and ready to build the life you would choose by elevating your consciousness and actions to match the circumstances you desire?

If anything cosmic occurs—and I certainly hope it will—it will not be because someone out there is doing it to us or for us. It will be because humanity (or at least a portion of it) has evolved to the point where we are ready for it. The planets, E.T.s, and the Mayan calendar do not create our experience. They reflect it. Over millions of years of reaching for more, the human race has arrived at a point where we are ready for better. A positive turn of events accompanying the solstice represents the culmination of that growth and awakening. I personally don’t believe anything dramatic will happen on that date, unless people create something dramatic. I believe that we will enter a new season of humanity. Just as the spring equinox signifies the gentle entry of spring, and the temperature does not automatically rise to seventy degrees just because the calendar says so, I expect a gradual turning toward more good. The more you expect drama, the more you will get it. The more you move gently and firmly ahead, the more solid will be your growth and experience.
