One of the first things I noticed about Diana Cooper was her gentle and loving energy. She laughed easily, and (I swear) I could feel the angels surrounding her.

Diana Cooper is one of Great Britain's most popular authors on spirituality, and has been writing about angels since her first angelic encounter many years ago. Now she believes that the angels want her to spread hope about the coming year, 2012, and indeed she is filled with hope when it comes to the possibilities that lie ahead. The rumors and stories surrounding the most controversial time period since the Y2K fiasco range from the dooms dayers, who are positive it’s the end of the world, to the other end of the scale, where many new agers believe we’ll simply ascend into beings of light.

So I was more than delighted at the opportunity to ask her, for myself, what she, and the angels, saw coming for us, for humanity, in the next couple of years.

2012 heralds the most exciting opportunity for spiritual growth that there has ever been in the entire history of the planet. It’s the end of a 26,000 year period. It’s also the end of a 260,000 year period. And so it is the end times. But when you have an ending you have a beginning, and massive new energies are coming in 2012 to push us forward into a much higher frequency so the whole planet is starting to ascend.

If all the frequencies are shifting, has that already started?

It certainly has already started, and it’s going to accelerate in 2011 when there is a cosmic moment. A cosmic moment is an instant in time when the Universe is totally still and the portals of heaven open. The first cosmic moment will be at 11:11 on the 11th of November in 2011.

Now 11:11 is a very special number. Every number has an energy, and 11:11 was set in the collective consciousness eons ago, before many of the ancient civilizations that we know of, and it heralds the beginning of the new as a level higher than before. And so it’s heralding a huge shift, and great light is coming in and the highest possibilities for that time are that those in the 3rd dimension, those who only believe in what they can see and feel and touch, they are going to move up to the 4th dimension and open their hearts at which point they will want to bring peace into the world.

Those currently in the 4th dimension will move into the 5th dimension, when they will want to eradicate things like poverty throughout the world and help everyone. And those in the 5th dimension will move into ascension, which just means that they will be bringing the light of the “I Am” presence down into their physical body, so their cells will carry more light, and they’ll radiate like beacons and be able to help everybody.

And that’s just for 2011.

There is also a cosmic moment in 2012, and this is the one we’re all expecting. It takes place at 11:11 on the 21st of December 2012. This is the one predicted by the Mayans, the Aztecs, the Incas, all the ancient civilizations. And this is when much, much higher energy comes in. And at this point a whole lot of things happen throughout the universe. The spiritual chakras, which are the energy centers of the planet, are going to open. And this is why the Olympic Games are in London, because London is the earth star chakra of the planet. When the earth star chakra opens, then the higher ones, including the stellar gateway, the very highest which accesses Source, open too. And so the spiritual hierarchy have planned that all the focus of excitement and celebration and excellence will be on London, and that will bring about the opening of that chakra, and then all the other ones throughout the world will open, including the stellar gateway, which is in the Arctic, and has been purified over hundreds and hundreds of years being covered in ice, and then pure source energy, the energy of God, will come through into the planet for people to access.

That’s just one of the things happening.

At the same time, 33 cosmic portals throughout the planet are opening, and they bring in the Christ Light of unconditional love, plus the light of the 12 rays and the divine feminine. And so they are coming in, and in those places where the portals open that light will spread out around the land. Now these portals are spread out evenly throughout the planet. So there are two in America, and one just over the border in Canada, and of course there’s Hawaii, and so these are going to impact hugely on the world.

One of the crystal skulls is also going to be released. The crystal skulls have been programmed with extraordinary cosmic information, and information about how humanity began, and all the incredible wisdom of Atlantis. So far the crystal skulls which originally came from Atlantis, and at the fall of Atlantis where taken out into the world. So far only one has been revealed, which is the Mayan skull, but now they are going to reveal the Incan Skull which contains all the wisdom of Thoth, and the wisdom is about how everything is connected, how everything is harmonically interconnected so that we start to learn how to make this connection and it’s going to be the healing of the future. Now this skull is going to be released to its keepers, it’s not going out into general view, but its influence will still be felt everywhere.

We know about the Mayan pyramid and the Egyptian pyramids. Well, pyramids are cosmic computers and it is intended that the light coming in during 2012 will trigger the energy within them to be released. At the end of Atlantis there were six pyramids built; so there was the Mayan one, the Egyptian one, one in Mesopotamia, one in Peru, one in Tibet and one in Greece. The four of them have been demolished, but the energy is still there and they will make their cosmic connection and then they will light up and also start to raise the frequency of the planet.

In addition, the moon will be exceptionally bright around that time, and that’s bringing in the Divine Feminine. It will also bring higher waters, naturally the moon always does, especially when it’s very strong, and that will bring about some flooding in places that need to be cleansed. And so the cleansing will take place, and so many places that have been very “yucky” will be released at that time.

So those are just some of the things that are forecast to happen around 2012 that will make a big energetic shift on the planet.

And people will be picking them up, but won’t necessarily understand it. They will just start to feel different and open up to see spirits and angels, which will shift their religious understanding into a more spiritual understanding.

In part two, Diana discusses what our culture faces, and how mankind will grow through the process.
