In this essay, the celebrated counterculture thought leader Daniel Pinchbeck explores our current world situation through many lenses. He offers a geopolitical analysis, dives deep into popular conspiracy theories around the origins of the Coronavirus, as well as Qanon, the antivaxx movement, and the hidden intentions of Bill Gates. He proposes an occult and shamanic understanding that allows us to make sense of much that seems incomprehensible and overwhelming in the accelerating rush of current events. The goal of the book is to provide a coherent understanding of today's mega-trends which will support the emergence of a new social movement aimed at overcoming the dark and psychopathic agendas possessed by some of our ruling elites.
Nice to see the author's take on certain political events and conspiracy agendas. However, Daniel seems to contradict himself in his own writings and takes a narrow-minded approach, painting others with a broad brush. Compared to some of his other books like, "2012" and "Breaking Open the Head," you can feel his resistance while writing this. I wish he would have waited longer to touch on these topics. Unfortunately, it has diminished my respect for the author, as he comes off as kind of condescending.. I would warn that if you want to continue your joy of Pinchbeck, you shouldn't read this essay. Save your money.
