Duran describes discovering that two major U.S. crop circles from 1993 formed a perfect triangle with the Sun and Moon Pyramids near Mexico City, with each leg measuring exactly 2,160 miles. She connects a 52-day cycle to lunar eclipses, earthquake patterns along specific longitude lines, and the Shoemaker-Levy comet collision with Jupiter. Duran shares predictions she made for storms, volcanic eruptions, and power failures that she says came true on the dates specified.
Art Bell connects Duran's theories about magnetic and electromagnetic shifts to his own observations about what he calls the quickening. They discuss increasing UFO activity over Mexico City dating to the 1991 eclipse, the HAARP project, and the calendar's end date of December 2012 when all numbers reset to zero.
Key Moments
Duran's 1993 crop-circle/pyramid triangle: Duran maps the 1993 Kennewick, Washington and Herkimer, New York crop circles as forming a perfect triangle with the Sun and Moon Pyramids near Mexico City - each leg 2,160 miles, the same number as years in a celestial age. The two circles were found 52 days apart.
Predicted Mexico City volcano evacuation: Duran says she predicted in November 1994 that the Popocatepetl volcano near Mexico City would erupt; on December 21, 1994, authorities evacuated 30,000 people. She faxed the predictions to Magical Blend magazine editors two weeks before the events.
July 11, 1991 Mexico City eclipse and the Mayan prophecy: Duran ties the start of Mexico City's mass UFO sightings to the eclipse of July 11, 1991, citing a Mayan prophecy from 577 A.D. that the 'galactic ancestors' would return on that date and begin the era of the Sixth Sun. Hundreds of thousands recorded the eclipse on video; a UFO appeared.
Mayan calendar zeros out December 23, 2012: Duran explains why Jose Arguelles became obsessed with the calendar: after 5,000 years as the most accurate calendar on the planet, every one of its seven major number columns reads zero on December 23, 2012, and then the cycle starts over.
Duran's on-air prediction window: April-June 1996: Duran makes a live, dated prediction: the April 3, 1996 lunar eclipse plus 52 days reaches May 25, beginning a 13-day window of magnetic storms, power failures, and earthquakes or volcanoes on longitude lines marked by crop circles.
