In popular culture and in our personal lives we are increasingly terrified by threats of danger and catastrophic destruction. We are entranced by annihilation and dystopian voids. Why do apocalyptic endings in story, film, drama and dreams increasingly command our attention? What is the impact this assault has on each of us and what might we be trying to face in these images of disaster and death?

The meaning of the word \u201capocalypse\u201d is \u201cuncovering what has been hidden, revelation of a new truth, rebirth,\u201d bringing a new stage of psychological maturity and development for the whole earth.
