This is a time of a New Mysticism when prophecy and predictions emerge in many communities - both inside and outside the conventional religions.
The Christian church senses the maelstrom of prophecy about the Return of Christ but seems too shackled by conventions to meet the challenge of the present. In Islam there are miracles as a new prophet brings revival. He proclaims revelations from the Angels about an imminent Return - perhaps of the Twelfth Iman or Mohammed or even God.

In Israel a young Cantor is recognized as a Prophet from the great traditions, like a new Samuel, and reminds the Jews of a promised Divine Intervention at the time of their greatest need.
Outside the great religions, psychics and prophets in other cultures sense a new influence: an Extraterrestrial presence.
But in common among all those communities and cultures is a rampaging conviction: Prophecy is about to be fulfilled! The Return is imminent!
There are those who know that Planet Earth is a Barometer of Balance - that it bears the consequences of Humanity's behaviour and demands resolution. Its predicted convulsions affect many countries as earthquakes, volcanoes and solar storms seek to readjust the pressures and tensions which the Earth carries. Not even the solar system is free from the destructive energies which threaten the planet. Amidst the world's catastrophes, major political players seek to outmaneuver one another and seize the opportunities created by crises. Move and counter move centre on The Middle East - and Israel.
In the emerging crises, psychics cooperate withscientists, preachers and politicians who search the meaning of the Rocks of Testimony which arrive like so many tablets of stone throughout the Earth. The time is ripe for intervention: but who or what is the prophesied Return?
