The Mysteries of the Great Cross of Hendayereveals one of Western occultism's deepest secrets: The alchemical transformation of base metal into gold is also the transformation of the current Iron Age into the Golden Age. Based on the work of the enigmatic 20th-century alchemist Fulcanelli, authors Weidner and Bridges show how the greatest alchemical secret is that of time itself and that coded into an obscure monument in southwestern France--the cross in the town square of Hendaye--is the imminent date of the apocalypse. The authors' explorations of this symbolism lead them from the cross of Hendaye to the western facade of the cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris, the Pyrenees, ancient Egypt, and the secret origins of Atlantis in Peru, to reveal that we are indeed living in a ""fatal season"" and that this season is intimately connected to our solar system's alignment with the galactic center. The authors' in-depth examination of alchemy's connection with the coming end days also reveals that this astro-alchemical knowledge was part of the sacred science of the Egyptians and the Atlanteans, whose coded messages are, at last, deciphered to guide humanity to its future destiny.

Reviews
"Fascinating detail . . . a truly groundbreaking work." * Moira Timms, author of Beyond Prophecies and Predictions *
"The authors, by their brilliantly derived mix of alchemy with astrophysics, have breathed new life into the Fulcanelli enigma." * Joscelyn Godwin, author of Cosmic Music *
"A brilliant deductive revelation." * John Major Jenkins, author of Maya Cosmogenesis 2012 and Galactic Alignment *
"It would be impossible to describe or even summarise the staggering amount of information in this book. The material covers vast areas of Western occult knowledge, some parts of which have almost been lost to the genuine seeker. . . . A highly recommended book." * Jennifer Hoskens, New Dawn, May-June 2005 *
". . . [This book] is packed with very clear 'indications' towards the secrets of life. . . . concise expressions of the significance of alchemy and cosmology. Anyone who is interested in the Knights Templar, Holy Grail, Christian Mysticism, Immortality and being alive in the first place should certainly read this book." * Oliver Perceval, Light, Summer 2005, Vol. 125, No.1 *
"A good book, worthy of reading, and if the authors are right, either sell your bonds, or don't worry about peak oil, credit card rates, or terrorism, as the End of Time is near." * Institute for Hermetic Studies, Oct 2006 *
