Plot
When archaeologists unearth a 2,000-year-old astrology carving in a Peruvian lead mine, global cataclysms start to destroy the globe: explosive meteor storms, tsunamis, lightning storms, lava geysers and giant waterspouts erupt everywhere, each disaster corresponding to a specific sign of the zodiac. While the artifact discovered in the dig falls into the wrong hands of a government agency that kills to hide the secret, a divorced university professor, his estranged son and two scientists race against time and carnage to decipher the symbols on the artifact as a prediction of the coming of Nibiru, a mythical ninth planet believed to bring the Apocalypse when it crosses the sun. They realize that the only way to avert the end of the world is to recover the object and return it to its rightful place by activating an ancient civilization's Armageddon machine.{{cite web|url=http://www.tvguide.co.uk/detail/2028008/102777306/zodiac-signs-of-the-apocalypse|title=Zodiac: Signs of the Apocalypse (2014)|publisher=TVGuide.co.uk|access-date=August 13, 2016}}
