Bestselling author, James Redfield, knows about timely intuitive guidance. He self- published and sold 100,000 copies of his first book, ‘The Celestine Prophecy’, out of the trunk of his car before Warner Books finally agreed to publish it.

Redfield followed up his 1993 adventure with ‘The Tenth Insight: Holding the Vision’ in 1996, and ‘The Secret of Shambhala: In Search of the Eleventh Insight’ in 1999.
After almost thirteen years, the fourth and final installment of the Celestine Series was published last month. ‘The Twelfth Insight: The Hour of Decision’ is perhaps Redfield’s most clear and engaging work to date.

MP: There are many prophecies about the year 2012. How does this book clarify this discussion?
JR: There is a confluence of prophecy about this time period and the Mayan Calendar is one of them. The best scholarship shows us that this calendar is indeed prophetic, but it's not forecasting the end of the world.
