Catastrophobia

En savoir plus sur le livre

In "Catastrophobia," author Barbara Hand Clow explores legendary catastrophes and posits that we are on the brink of a remarkable era of creative growth, despite prophecies of impending doom. Recent discoveries of prehistoric settlements buried beneath the Black Sea contribute to a growing body of evidence that many "mythical" disasters—such as the fall of Atlantis and the biblical flood—actually occurred. Clow describes how a series of major catastrophes, resulting from a massive disruption in the Earth's crust 11,500 years ago, shook the world and left deep scars on the collective psyche of humanity. We are a wounded species, and the unprocessed fear passed down through generations has led to a persistent expectation of apocalypse, whether through Y2K or the famed end of the Mayan calendar in 2012. "Catastrophobia" reveals the dark global forces that have exploited hidden fears to control humanity. However, we are amidst a significant shift in a 26,000-year precessional cycle, suggesting that the changes in consciousness over the past thirty years mark the beginning of a collective healing and an era of active creativity.
