With the passing of the Mayan Calendar's end date, we can now focus on the true significance of what the Maya and their predecessors were trying to convey to future civilisations. Frank Joseph reveals how the Mayan prophecy, symbolised by their calendar, was created through the combined genius of Atlantis and Lemuria and predicts an eternal cycle of global creation, destruction and renewal. He shows how this cycle correlates precisely with scientific studies on glacial ice cores and predictions from the Hopi, the Incas and the Scandinavian Norse, as well as the visions of Edgar Cayce. He links the demise of Atlantis with the birth of the Olmec civilisation in Mexico (the progenitors of the Maya), the beginning of the first Egyptian dynasty and the start of the Mayan Calendar. Drawing on the latest climatology studies and papers from Pentagon and NASA analysts, he reveals that we are on the brink of a destructive phase in the global cycle of change as predicted by the Atlanteans and the Maya. The world's current political, economic and cultural deterioration is paralleled by unprecedented storms and record temperatures, massive solar flares, tectonic disturbances and fissuring sea floors that could release dangerous reservoirs of methane gas into the environment - all of which signals we are headed into another ice age. Despite the Atlanteans' greater understanding of the cyclical nature of catastrophes and of the human role in them, Joseph reveals the mistakes they made that played a crucial role in their civilisation's destruction. By recognising the self-destructive patterns of Atlantis in our own civilisation, we can learn from their mistakes to re-establish civilisation's cosmic balance before time runs out.
