This musing – part 1 of 2 - explores collective change, uncertainty, and choice. If you notice emotional activation while reading - pause, breathe, and reconnect with your body or surroundings. Clarity arises most easily from a regulated nervous system.
The hardest part of waking up isn’t seeing the truth —
it’s seeing how many will fight to defend the illusion.
This sentence from last month’s musing stayed with me because it captures the essence of where we now stand. We are here. At a choice point.
2025 gave us little flashes of what’s still to come. Those delays, setbacks & plot twists were to help us embody the lessons and closure of the 9-year cycle, ending the year of the wood snake (shedding, metamorphosis & introspection). I have mentioned the snake archetype many times with its serpent energy of shedding its skin/shedding our illusions, its belly being connected/grounded to the earth, a symbol of death and rebirth. Did you know 2025 was the 7th most seismic year in 105 yrs of tracking? Well, we are coming into the FIRE horse year so watch for more eruptions both solar & seismic.
The Annular Solar Eclipse or “ring of fire” arrives on February 17th. February 17th also kickstarts the Chinese New Year (lunar calendar), shifting into the year of the fire horse which symbolizes fast energy, freedom & growth. Where the snake encourages stillness & inner clarity, the horse urges us to move forward. As I mentioned last month, 2026 will be the intensification of information and exponential revelations. This year’s shift in energy – from introspection to movement - will ask you to shift into higher realities (i.e. higher vibrations/ frequencies) or descend into denser drama. There is often an accounting of where you are energetically and how far you need to shift in order to step up to this numerological 1 year. This is a good time to RE-view how well you are coping with the chaos on Earth. Remember, your soul knows why everything is happening. 2026 is going to be a bit bumpy until the captain turns off the seatbelt sign sometime in the Spring.
The theme for 2026 is expect the unexpected so be flexible with your expectations. It promises to be a volatile & urgent year so be mindful of your nervous system. There is not just an internal restructuring, it’s also outward reform to all our institutions and systems. Every form of institution is collapsing and that’s exposing not just the wizard/lizard behind the curtain but the veil itself.
This is not a year of passive observation. It is a year of movement and movement always reveals where we are out of alignment.
Humanity is not facing an ending; we are facing a decision point. Ancient cycles, mythic timelines, and astronomical rhythms are converging into a narrow window of participation rather than prophecy.
The 2020 Pandemic was a trigger point in human consciousness. Many experienced existential questionings for the first time. In March 2024 Musings about the Great Gaslighting, I said 2020-2024 was a “preview” and 2024-2028 is the “opening act.” Now, 2026 is the ignition point. It accelerates and reveals what has already been collapsing. Humanity is not facing an ending; we are facing a decision. We are being asked “What frequency will you feed?”
Bifurcation: Two Worlds
The Solar System is not static: it breathes, it shifts, and now it resonates. Earth has become the point of bifurcation. The bifurcation refers to the division of Earth into two distinct parts or pathways – high vibration & low vibration; an energetic division between those who anchor the love-light above and those who anchor fear.
In science, bifurcation is a well-defined mathematical concept where a small change in a system’s conditions leads to a sudden change in behavior. In spiritual language, the term is used metaphorically to describe a time “splitting” of trajectories rather than a literal split of the planet; the theoretical idea of a “temporal bifurcation”. Earth has become a point of bifurcation – a division of pathways.
There is a lot of talk about 2026-2030, and the outcome of humanity depends upon our free will choices. (Re-read my musings on Sovereignty & the Great Awakening.)
Dr. Samuel B. Lee says: “From 2025 to 2030, humanity faces a monumental spiritual split—two timelines, two spirals, one planetary choice. 2030 is not the end, it’s the frequency lock-in. This isn't a metaphor, it’s a literal divergence of frequency paths.” This is not good people versus bad people. People experience different realities based on what they feed. It’s always frequency and resonance.
Those 2 timeline possibilities are:
Coherence, remembrance & integration - where all people awaken to fully understand they are divine Consciousness (all ONE) and soul remembrance. This is organic life. Our Christic Spiral DNA is re-encrypted & activated which means eternal life & living in love-light systems.
Fragmentation, fear & control – the false matrix and continuation of old belief systems (BS) of control & chaos – political, financial, educational, religious, institutional, and so on. Where infringement from other-worldly entities (i.e. negative alien races) who wish to use hybrid robots/clones to control humans (Artificial Intelligence & transhumanism). This is a finite time of inorganic life and spiritual entropy (consumes itself) like the infinity sign or Fibonacci spiral.
Descent
Every species has negative beings that defected from the light (i.e. Lucifer, Satan, Enki, Nephilim, etc). These Fallen Angels reflect the descent to the dark ages; also called the demiurge reality of fear & deception. Many believe this archonic influence has created spiritual amnesia using advanced AI technology. Our DNA & chakras were tampered with as well as our pineal & pituitary glands were deactivated, cutting off our DIRECT connection to God/Goddess. However, the illusion is breaking and collapsing. The pineal & pituitary are coming back online making it easier to discern and “see” the divine. Gnosis means connecting with Source/God/Goddess and it is predicted to lead us into the golden age by 2028-2030.
This is an organic, living, conscious, sentient galaxy and we are reintegrating with a higher octave of Earth (not leaving it). And many believe divine order will be restored within a few years. Therefore, humanity is going to begin learning their lessons in more dramatic ways and at a much faster pace. Events will transpire on the planet requiring people make the biggest choices of many Lifetimes.
Earth cannot hold both fields simultaneously. Earth Mother can no longer tolerate the type of separation that has transpired on her body. Cataclysms are nothing more than nature's way of cleansing the imbalances and toxicity created by the consciousness of the collective. Too many people no longer honor the earth (ayni). Many trash her body, create increasingly more pollution, and use her resources unwisely. As a collective, we have created places on Earth with pockets of unbalanced energy that must be released.

If you feel overwhelmed here, you are not alone. Heightened polarity often amplifies awareness unevenly. There is no required pace for integration. Clarity and truth are arising alongside uncertainty. Peace is emerging in parallel with conflict. This amplification allows all layers in between to be seen, confronted, and ultimately integrated.
Where you find yourself now is largely where you will remain energetically into 2026. This moment reflects a stabilization point rather than a passing phase. A pause for integration.
Your response to this message may offer insight into your current state:
If you feel grounded, expanded, or calm, you are likely flowing with the acceleration rather than against it.
If you feel neutral, you may be observing from a threshold; aware, but not yet fully engaged.
If you feel fear, resistance, or agitation, the ego may be responding defensively, often through projection, denial, or cognitive dissonance.
Your own energy is revealing where accountability is now required, and these signals are arriving faster than ever before.
Many are experiencing emotional clarity and a sense of internal release, similar to a deep exhale after long tension. Others are encountering varying degrees of cognitive dissonance. For some, this conflict is now being consciously recognized. For others, it remains unconscious until it can no longer be contained.
Over the past year, energetic recalibrations have driven hidden distortions to the surface with unique intensity. This period of heightened polarity has felt unbearable for some, while for others it has marked a clear transition into greater coherence, alignment, and inner stability. In the same way chaos often precedes reorganization.
Some are able to embody these frequencies and ground them into daily life. While this acceleration feels exhilarating to those in alignment, it can be overwhelming for those whose consciousness is being pushed to reconcile conflicting timelines, beliefs, and identities at an unfamiliar pace. This acceleration may feel overwhelming and come faster than the nervous system can comfortably process.
For those unable or unwilling to release rigid egoic structures (often due to fear, conditioning, unresolved trauma, or avoidance of their shadow side), this period may be experienced as chaos or suffering, sometimes described as “hell on earth.” In these cases, the ego struggles to maintain outdated beliefs and learned behaviors that no longer align with present conditions. When integration fails, psychological and energetic extremes can emerge. In the most severe cases, this collapse can manifest as profound delusion, including the belief that external violence can resolve internal chaos (i.e. Bondi Beach, New Orleans truck attack, Pahalgam attack in India, and even more school/college shootings).
Events that appear unjust or unfair often reflect the collective consciousness. Systems of governance, institutions, and public talking heads mirror the awareness of the populations they serve. While suffering is real and should never be dismissed, these experiences also interact with collective and individual accountability (karma). As collective consciousness evolves toward principles of truth, responsibility, harmony, and compassion, it naturally ceases to sustain corrupt or distorted systems.
Patience, discernment, and self-responsibility are essential now. Balance is mastery.

The Matrix Mirror
Last month I explained propaganda as “emotional”. Mainstream media rarely tells us what to think outright. Instead, they tell us how to feel by focusing only on certain narratives. Propaganda works by repetition, selective framing, and emotionally loaded language. They literally have their own hidden language to get their messaging across to you. I joke about starting a news network called NAN – No Adjectives News – facts only, no emotional messaging required.
Rather than provide unbiased reporting where you can come to your own conclusion, their goal is to evoke emotions to distract you or get you to believe something that’s just not there or not true. For example, Dan had the news on, and we noticed a tractor trailer driving forward across train tracks to avoid a collision, yet the reporter was stating the truck was trying to BACK-UP before being hit by the train. This is the perfect example of gaslighting, the practice of mental manipulation. Once you begin to notice this, it becomes impossible to unsee.
The “Matrix” is made of thoughts and beliefs, especially the ones that are never questioned. Rather than asking whether we are trapped in a matrix, what if we are participating in it? Beliefs repeated without inquiry become structure. Assumptions accepted as fact become blocks. Freedom does not come from escaping reality; it comes from recognizing the mirror.
Life begins open & curious. Then, slowly, through brainwashing & predictive programming, ideas about how things “are” start to appear. Every “this is just how life is”, is now lived in reaction instead of creation. Experiences are accepted as fixed instead of seen as feedback. Every belief repeated without inquiry becomes a line of code. And the Matrix is born.
It’s like watching a movie and forgetting the remote is in your own hand. What you see on the “screen” is a convincing story. Remember you are the author of your story!
Freedom comes from noticing the Matrix. From seeing a belief and asking, “Is this actually true, or is it just familiar?” The moment you recognize this is an outdated belief, the code dissolves. And then the Matrix becomes a mirror, reflecting what is assumed to be true.
For the past couple of years, Dan & I have watched every movie as if it were a documentary – symbolic reflections rather than entertainment alone. This way of watching will change the way you “see” things.
When you start asking questions like:
When you start asking questions, you gain clarity. You stop sleepwalking and wake up. You notice that so many are completely oblivious to the manipulation. Going down the rabbit hole – a phrase now used to describe getting trapped in a senseless world - has its rewards, but the majority of the population will call you crazy because of it. Call me crazy!!!!
Speaking of rabbits…rabbits have been used as symbols of innocence in various narratives and usually add depth to stories. For example, the white rabbit in Alice in Wonderland initiates Alice’s adventure into Wonderland and stimulates her curiosity.
Next time you watch The Wizard of Oz, consider it not just pure entertainment but from a big picture perspective with its hidden symbolic messages. Many interpretations suggest this classic children’s story served as a political allegory for the economic struggles of the 1890s in America.
The significance of the rabbit in The Matrix movie is that it symbolizes the choice to explore deeper truths beyond reality; to follow one’s curiosity and intuition. The phrase “follow the rabbit” is a catalyst for Neo’s journey of awakening, a journey into the unknown and self-discovery. Neo had no clue what the rabbit meant but he followed it anyway and it leads him to Morpheus, who ends up revealing the truth behind the matrix.
This is often the point where division intensifies. When one person asks questions, another feels threatened. History shows us that the phrase “Why can’t you see the truth?” has been used by fanatics as often as by mystics. Waking up is not equivalent to possessing “the truth.” In reality, nobody really knows the truth. We all hold A TRUTH, filtered through belief, experience, and worldview. The question to ask is “whose truth?”
Even though there are plenty of people who still trust whatever they’re told, more are starting to notice the patterns and see through the illusion. Once that happens, there’s no going back. And…we shouldn’t!
The real foundation of WISDOM is not holding onto ANY perspective with too much attachment.

Two Paths: Predictions & Prophecy
Across cultures, prophecy traditionally functions as guidance rather than fixed outcome. These stories repeat the same core message – humanity reaches moments where paths diverge. These stories are not predictions carved in stone. They describe patterns of choice and humanity has faced this choice before. We are in a transition window. The question is not what will happen. The question is how will you participate?
In Northern Arizona is a petroglyph known as Prophecy Rock. Etched into the giant rock is a path that splits into two – one path is straight & simple and the other fractured & ends abruptly. The path of the Two-Hearted man follows a way of life with materialism, technology, greed, corruption, and forgetting the sacred. The path of the One-Hearted man is a simple path of gratitude, growing food, connecting & respecting Earth/Nature (ayni), guided by Spirit, and performing rituals to honor the Earth and the Source Creator. The message is clear: one path continues, one does not. The two paths of Prophecy Rock symbolize choice of consciousness.
The materialistic path ends in a jagged line resembling chaos and a destructive cliff. When we live with two hearts, we are pulled in two directions. Our thoughts and emotions often contradict our deepest aspirations.
However, the nature and spirit path continues on for eternity. The prophecy speaks of the return of the “True White Brother” who visited from the stars in ancient times, taught the Hopi about the source of creation, and gave them instructions for their way of life, for ceremonies, and kachina dances. Kachinas are believed to have come here long ago, from the stars.
The Book of the Hopi by Frank Waters, describes kachinas as spirits from other planets and stars; that star people are both interdimensional and extraterrestrial. The kachinas in the painting are dressed in various costumes and masks, giving the impression of a variety of appearances or races amongst the star people. Could the True White Brother be one of many races or star nations?
The Phoenix’s Descent of Light
Chosen long before human memory, the desert name Phoenix was once an area or portal between Earth and other realms. Is it an accident of geography or timing?
Many spiritual traditions describe Source/God/Goddess as unity consciousness, infinite awareness longing to know itself. In this telling, creation begins as fragmentation – sparks of Source experiencing form, density & duality. Some became stars, galaxies, and elements. Some became animals, plants, and the hidden folk of Earth. Many became human (on Earth and elsewhere).
The Oversoul sends fragments – infinity sparks – across time, space, and dimension to gather experience. Descent into density is about learning, not punishment.
“The stars include us, they do not bind us.”
~ Nostradamus
We needed to contract to evolve. It is like the painful contractions before birth. It is not about the downward descent (the literal birth canal) before expansion. This descent into density (matter) marks the awakening and RE-membering of our divine connection to all that is. The ascension upward into a multidimensional embodiment is like the phoenix rising where descent precedes ascent.
Many people are intrigued by the idea of ascension and that we are now at a nexus point for RE-connecting with this enlightened, divine aspect of ourselves – the OverSoul.
“Time is the moving image of eternity.”
