The Times They ARE A Changing.......

“The times they are a changing. And not everyone’s ready for the fall.”

Just as the leaves release their hold on the branches that once nourished them, we too are witnessing the release of old systems, and those who clung too tightly to them.

Nature does not apologize for her cycles. When something no longer serves the whole, it must return to the soil to feed what’s next.

We watch as leaders, once high among the canopy, begin to tumble, police chiefs, politicians, senators, congressmen (and women) stepping down, facing scrutiny, or standing trial for choices long buried beneath the mulch of time.

And it’s not just the halls of government that tremble. The spotlight now turns toward the world of wealth and fame, where celebrities, CEOs, and those who once shaped culture from behind their velvet curtains are also stepping down, called out, or quietly removed from their thrones. Their departures echo through boardrooms and studios alike, as if the great tree of society is shedding its uppermost branches, no longer able to sustain the weight of excess and illusion.

For some, it’s exposure. For others, perhaps, it’s redemption — the chance to step away before the wind grows too strong. Either way, the clearing is underway.

A light is being shone in the deepening darkness of the season, illuminating the rot that has lingered too long among the roots. Yet in that same light, tiny green shoots already stir beneath the fallen leaves. This is the rhythm of renewal — in the world below and in the heavens above.

A New Object in the Heavens

Above us, a new celestial visitor moves through the heavens. Some call it 3I Atlas, a mysterious wanderer reflecting sunlight but revealing little else. With all our advanced telescopes and orbiting eyes, why is its image kept hidden?

Perhaps it’s coincidence, perhaps not, that as of September 2025, NASA has been folded deeper into the cloak of national security. Intelligence, counterintelligence, investigations — words that now define what was once humanity’s public window to the stars.

By executive order, NASA’s focus has shifted toward national defense, removing its employees from union representation and placing discoveries under tighter control. What new truths might now be deemed “too sensitive” for the collective eye? And what might we not be shown — not just about the cosmos, but about ourselves?

Beyond the silence, stories and visions ripple through the field of human consciousness. Remote viewers have described 3I Atlas as being “pulled”, guided, not adrift in space. Some see it as an empty vessel, yet not lifeless, a craft imbued with awareness, here to assist in the awakening of humanity through higher frequencies. Others warn it could be a prop in a grand illusion, the centerpiece of a long-predicted “false flag” invasion.

But as the weeks unfold, more and more souls are feeling its presence, not as a threat, but as a herald. A signal of renewal. A sentient messenger moving in harmony with the coming shift, encouraging us to rise above fear and open our hearts to transformation.

For in the end, what matters most is not what the object is, but what we believe it to be. Are we feeding the frequency of fear, or nurturing the vibration of opportunity — the same energy that fuels those new shoots and buds that emerge after fall and dark winter?

The Season of Shedding

Change, it seems, is descending from every direction, political, planetary, personal. Our weather, wars, earth changes… our very way of thinking — all are trembling at the edge of transformation.

The question remains: are we ready for the fall of the old and the rise of the new?

Because the fall isn’t failure. It’s nature, inevitable change, surrender. It’s the sacred letting go and clearing that makes rebirth and new growth possible.

Closing Reflection

Change rarely asks permission.

It arrives like autumn — uninvited, breathtaking, and necessary.

Each falling leaf is a whisper from the universe reminding us:

nothing truly dies, it only transforms.

The trees do not mourn their leaves.

They trust the renewal that follows.

So as old systems crumble and veils lift,

may we remember —

the fall is not the end.

It’s the clearing that makes way for the spring.

And here’s a reminder from Bette Midler…

Just remember in the winter

Far beneath the bitter snows

Lies the seed that with the sun’s love

In the spring becomes the rose
