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

Product Description

According to Mayan & Egyptian prophecy, the earth awaits a super catastrophe in 2012: its magnetic fields will completely reverse in one agonizing shift. Devastating earthquakes and tidal waves will completely destroy civilization as Europe and North America are pulled north to polar latitudes. Almost all the earth's population will perish. These predictions stem from the sophisticated astronomy of the Maya and Egyptians, descendants of the legendary original Atlanteans, whose island, in this theory, is now buried under the South Pole. The Atlanteans predicted the world-wide flood in 9792 BC. In 2012, according to several 10,000 year-old star codes, Venus, Orion and several other stars will take the same 'code-positions' as in 9792 BC. There is also a forgotten and massive labyrinth, created by the Old Egyptians, of secret chambers filled with artifacts and documents about the previous flood.

1.0 out of 5 stars Cataclysmically dismal!!, March 8, 2006

By	J. Chasin (NYC, NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase

This book is essentially a self-important book report! The auuthor has perused several touchstone books in the realm of alternative science, specifically those having to do with end times prophesies, cataclysms, and pole shifts! Notable among these are works by Hapgood, Bauval, and Flem-Ath!

Do yourself a favor, read the originals! This book adds nothing new to the discussion! Rather, it serves as a "book report" on the work of others, presented in breathless style, with 15 exclamation points on every page! What is up with all the exclamation points?! I could have lived with less punctution and more, I don't know, ideas! Since I've read most of the books this reports on, it was ultimately pointless!

Start with Charles Hapgood and the Flem-Ath book, When the Wky Fell!

3.0 out of 5 stars It's Better Than Nighttime Tylenol, January 28, 2005

By	An Amazon Babe - See all my reviews

In The Orion Prophecy Patrick Geryl & Gino Ratinckx deal with Maya & Egyptian prophecy. Looking over of these reviews, some of these folks must not be well read. These authors have not made any claims that others have not from today's Hal Lindsey, Gordon Scallion, Art Bell, to yesterdays Edgar Cayce, Nostradamus, Mayans......

The point being if your new to the thought of massive earth changes this book is an OK place to start. However, if your familiar with that train of thought I would suggest skipping it because I really did fall a sleep several times reading it. I didn't even need any Nighttime Tylenol last night. So for that it gets three big yellow yawns (Stars) from me.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Illuminating, December 6, 2005

By	Mario Crespi - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you will notice the rating in the reviews of this book will either be 1 or 5 stars but no in-betweens. THis is perhaps do to the polarizing nature of the subject and the many fears that people tend to harbor. I found this book to be very illuminating and a confirmation to something that I already knew from either other sources or from pure insight. But regardless of the numerous reviews here nothing can take away from the fact that the Mayan calendar ends in the year 2012? Coincidence? THe book was not written for a scientific journal, so it does sound speculative at times, but once you read and understand the implications and the sources from which the authors have drawn their data, it is highly illuminating.
