planetary changes

I don’t what Michael was thinking of specifically, you’d have to ask him.
However, let me say a few things that I think are true, which may or may not be connected . . .

It’s clear that things are evolving faster and faster on the planet. Think about how many centuries we were in feudalism and agrarian times, and then how in the 20th century we got rapid technological advancements. Faster and faster each decade! Whole computers now in the size of an I-Pod, with enough storage space to record many full-length movies, and super-fast internet connections that allow us to connect with any individual across the planet almost instantaneously. Just 100 years ago was World War I! The amount of change in the last 100 years is astronomical as compared to those century segments previous.

This phenomenon has been observed in many outlets. Just one example was a famous 2012 pop culture “speculation” writer Carl Calleman. For instance, in his case, he observed this acceleration as something that has taken place through all of human history (we just didn’t notice it before) and he predicted an evolutionary acceleration factor of 20x, as seen in the following photo:

Although he incorrectly–tapping into 2012 pop culture fears about Mayan apocalypse–predicted some end-time (as seen in the photo), I think the overall observation of acceleration of changes is an accurate one. Whether this phenomenon that we are pointing to here via different avenues is what Michael was alluding to or not, this phenomenon certainly constitutes
“rapid energetic changes taking place on a planetary scale”,
as per his comment,
and I think most of us would agree there is some energetic truth beyond it all, even if we can’t really pinpoint the source.

In any case, regardless of the underlying nature of the rapid energetic changes, if we take this as a given, then the result is immediate:

When changes start occurring very rapidly, one right after another, faster and faster so that it is harder and harder to keep up, what occurs is that it breaks your outer earth, so that there is very little “too hold onto”. It means that it becomes increasingly difficult to live your life by playing out habitual patterns and unconscious automatic behaviors.

Note: often we play out such habitual patterns so that we can avoid dealing with reality and avoid dealing with deeper issues . . . it’s a form of procrastination. So if that is taken away, if you are *forced* to deal with new changes coming (whether you like it or not), it makes it much more difficult to run and hide from stuff you got buried. It doesn’t matter that you’d rather deal with it next week, as it is here now, and you are forced to deal with it NOW.

The ultimate reason for all of this, is that when your outer earth is broken and there is nothing to hold onto, the only permanent ground you have is your own inner earth. This forces you to become authentic and start embracing who you truly are. No more running and hiding. All of your unconscious patterns, bubble up to the surface . . . and it happens whether you are ready for them or not.

Just my take,
