The Power of Prophecy

Bag om The Power of Prophecy

In the early nineties I endured the visitation of a dream-vision that at the same time was a prophecy. A prophecy is not so much a prediction as an engine that begins to unfold into the manifest world, at first through language and then as various cultural practices, particularly the arts. We can thus begin to see, in hint and gesture, a new world coming into being. For some years I was ruthlessly caught up in the prophecy's unfolding processes, simply struggling to survive. With some hard-won distance I now know my dream-vision is a prophecy for human kind, given its scale, power, wisdom, and love.In this book I have gathered a collection of my essays that circumnavigate the mystery of my 1992 dream-vision and trace the path of the prophecy as it continues to incarnate, slowly becoming our new reality, as expressed in our modern cultural productions.
