On Prophesies of "The Great Change" of 2012

Some while ago I came across a website called survive2012.com (I think). As someone who, in their everyday self, has some interest (albeit small) in the London Olympics, I thought this website might be something to do with a local protest group concerned with the impact of this event on East London. However, it turns out that some much greater event (or more likely many events) is prophesied for the year 2012 : the so-called "Great Change". I propose to explore what this might consist of in future blogs - not just this one (see links) - and thereby offer a number of possible scenarios, positive and negative, for The Great Change.

Incidentally, if anyone wants to send me any material relating to The Great Change of 2012, please do so.

Blog resumes with the Problem of Perelandra

Readers of my blog @ http://www.witchofworcester.wordpress.com/ (where I have been for several months now) will know that I am a great fan of C S Lewis's "The Cosmic Trilogy". However, whilst I veritably raced through the final volume, "That Hideous Strength", first, and then fairly swiftly followed this up with the first volume, "Out of the Silent Planet", I now find myself stuck on "Perelandra", (incidentally, the planet Venus in Lewis's cosmology), the middle volume of the trilogy. Central to this book is an encounter with "The Green Lady", but try as I may, I cannot "bond" with her or the book. Perhaps not all Green Ladies (amongst whom I would like to count myself) are from Venus : personally, I much preferred the Malacandrans (or Marsians) of the first volume.
