Product Description

Review
"An Earth-shattering prophecy..." -- Nexus, February 2002.

Product Description
In the year 2012 the Earth awaits a super catastrophe: its magnetic field will turn over in one go. Phenomenal earthquakes and tidal waves will completely destroy our civilisation. Europe and North America will shift thousands of kilometres northwards into polar climate. Nearly the whole earth's population will perish in the apocalyptic happenings. These dire predictions stem from Mayans and Egyptians -- descendants of the legendary Atlantis. The Atlanteans had highly evolved astronomical knowledge and were able to exactly calculate the previous world-wide flood in 9792 BC. They built tens of thousands of mandjits and escaped to South America and Egypt. In the year 2012 Venus, Orion and several other stars will take the same 'code positions' as in 9792 BC, the year of the previous cataclysm! For thousands of years historical sources have told of a forgotten time capsule of ancient wisdom located in a mythical labyrinth of secret chambers filled with artefacts and documents from the previous flood -- this book gives one possible location.

2.0 out of 5 stars Great topic, not so great book, 1 Dec 2005
A really interesting topic has been taken by two self-proclaimed geniuses and turned into a book that reads as though it has been written by a child who wasn't paying attention in English class - besides the spelling mistakes, much of the book is so poorly written that you will find yourself revising something two or three times to try and figure out what the authors are trying to communicate.

While there seems to be evidence pointing to something happening in 2012, this book offers lots of circumstantial evidence which doesn't really prove anything. One point in case is that the Mayans plotted the movements of the planets, moved to Egypt and built the pyramids to warn us about 2012. The authors keep telling us how advanced the Mayans were, but the so-called code which they left "had to be fairly basic, as they couldn't multiply." (No, really, it gets better!!)

Then they travel to Egypt and, unbelieveably easily, find something which has been lost for 3,000 years. Of course, they can't prove this as they are not allowed to dig, but they are sure it's there, as the mother of one of the authors had a dream that when they found a hole with two sticks beside it, they were in the right place. Lo and behold: THEY FOUND A PLACE WITH A HOLE AND TWO STICKS!!! Come to Ireland, lads - we've holes and sticks everywhere!! And no-one seems to mind how much you dig - infact, they'll even pay you for it...

Any time something has to be found or calculated the answer comes far, far, far too easily to them - it's like watching a rerun of Millionaire - you know the answer before the options come up. It's as though they are the ones hiding the objects, or encoding the information. All this from someone who writes like a five year old.

Much like the Bible Code by Michael Drosnin, a deeply interesting topic has been hijacked by incompetant money making opportunists.

The bulk of this book is actually quotes from another on the topic - so much so that you frequently find yourself thinking, "I should have got that one instead."

Will something happen in 2012? After reading this book I'm none the wiser and neither will you be.

By the way, I haven't read the sequel (I'm not sure what more has to be said) but I'm sure it's more of the same.

2.0 out of 5 stars DiaGnosis: Checking the facts destroys the thesis, 19 Feb 2007
By G. Stray "Geoff Stray" (Glastonbury, Somerset, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Briefly, the authors claim that the Egyptian Book of the Dead contains information concerning a catastrophe that happened in 9792 BC, when the earth stopped its rotation and started to rotate in the opposite direction, causing the tidal wave that swamped Atlantis. The knowledge was carried to Egypt, where the Atlantean kings became the gods of Egyptian mythology. The knowledge of the catastrophe, and how to predict its future arrival, was encoded into the texts which were included in the collection known as "The Book of Coming Forth by Day" (the Book of the Dead), but it was primarily guarded for posterity in The Labyrinth, which was purpose-built by the Atlantean descendants as an astronomical observatory. The authors claim that the Labyrinth was not destroyed, as claimed by the Egyptologists, but lies buried at a location they discovered by laying a sky-map over a map of Egypt, (with Giza as the belt of Orion), and projecting the Hyades star-group (known as "the labyrinth") onto the ground.

They also discovered that there was a retrograde loop of Venus in the year 9792 BC, that matches another one in 2012, and after finding it, discovered that the phenomenon was encoded into the Book of the Dead, as an astronomical signal that the catastrophe is at hand...so the forthcoming loop signifies a coming Atlantis-like flood in 2012!

However, their claims don't hold up to investigation! When the constellation of Orion is overlaid on a map of the Giza pyramids, the Hyades are not even in the same direction as the pyramid at Hawara, where the authors say the Labyrinth building is located.

What is more, there are actually 12 retrograde loops of Venus over the Orion constellation, between 1924 and 2012, due to the fact that a loop happens in a different place around the horizon over a period of 8 years, forming a pentagram if the points are joined up...but the start-point of the pentagram moves by about 2.4 degrees each revolution. So, when the 12 loops are compared to the one in 9792 BC, it turns out that the most accurate repetition of the 9792 BC loop is the one that occurred in 1948...with no Atlantis cataclysm just after it!

These facts destroy the whole thesis of the book!

1.0 out of 5 stars The Orion Dogma, 15 Oct 2006
By J. D. Shailes "JDS" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book states one conclusion after another with no supporting evidence. You read about one tale after another, but the reader cannot assess the potential vailidity of the conclusions for themselves because there is no reasoning given. The mathematics appears to me to be simply playing with numbers until a pattern emerges, which anyone can do if you divide, subtract and multiple something by some chosen numbers enough times.

I hoped I would be enlightened after reading this book, but sadly I am more perplexed by this mysterious subject matter than ever before. My advice would be to try other authors on this subject.
