A Novel by Catherine BARBER
Is December 21, 2012 the end of the world? Everyone is talking about this watershed date.
Everyone is looking to the ancient Mayans for answers. Why?
During the time that Pacal Votan ruled the empire of Nah Chan Palenque, he spoke of the Closing of an Age Cycle that will take place on December 21, 2012. He spoke of how Mankind are collectively in a transition phase of the old world dying and a new world being born. Votan talked about how Humanity would become disconnected from the laws of the natural world and fall ignorant of their sacred interdependence with nature. Pacal Votan was known by his people as the Magician of Time. His prophecias spoke of Indigo Children, a Polar Shift and the growing evil that would do its best to prevent Man from connecting to the New World on December 21, 2012.
Books about 2012 are popping up everywhere; everyone trying to explain and give scientific insight about this date. I have done something differente: Inspired by a real-life soul-snatching table (yes, a table!) that is chained inside a missionary church in the Andes Mountains, I have created an epic adventure, and ancient yarn that takes us back to the bygone days of tall ships. The haunting carrack, Stellar Wind, governed by evil, sails around the world to places like Haiti (with its Voodoo), Chile (with its infamous table), the Pategonia and the Chesapeake Bay. Pacal Votan comes to life with his teachings and prophecies and warnings.

The soul-snatching table in Paranicota, Chile...It's for real!!!
At sunrise on December 21, 2012, for the first time in 26,000 years, the Sacred Tree will form as the Sun arises to conjunct the intersection of the Milky Way and the plane of the ecliptic. It is believed by some that this alignment with the heart of the galaxy in 2012 will open a channel for cosmic energy to flow through the earth, cleansing it and all that dwell upon it. It is said that Humanity will continue, but differently. All the prophecies of the world, all the traditions, are converging now. Many powerful souls, from both sides, the light and the dark, have reincarnated in this era. Our world of polarity: day and night, man and woman, positive and negative, light and dark need each other. It is a balance. However, Econtra Lumen is getting stronger, growing, and trying to make it impossible for Humanity to connect to the Fifth World in 2012.
At this time, the realm of darkness is organized to block ether, the celestial element of the Fifth Sun, and has the power to do so. BOLON TI K'U, or, Lords of the Night, seek to take over the Earth, and even today are preparing for the alignment in 2012. Nevertheless, there is a way to stop the dark power of the declining Fourth World. With help from the spirit of a Maya god, Pacal Votan, love, friendship and the Heavens above, there is a tiny, shiny ray of hope for Humanity.
