A well-known saying is “history repeats itself” often suggesting that we have learned little from the past.

But often we cannot really see the bigger picture clearly until we zoom out enough.

And only then do we sometimes see that there are much larger cycles of development at play.

If we zoom out very strongly on the development of our Universe, we can see that there are two major currents running through the two Galactic Family lines from which all the “humanoid” civilizations arose.

One family line is that from the Lyra system, which includes known civilizations from the Pleiades, Orion and what we call the Annunaki and has chosen a path in which mental and intellectual evolution has been more central.

And the other family line is that from the Vega system, which includes known civilizations from Sirius and Zeta and has chosen a path in which spiritual and emotional evolution has been more central.

Some of these civilizations has achieved a kind of completion in the integration of both aspects and are on the threshold of moving into another phase of evolution.
Just like the humanoid on Earth, meaning us.

We are an interesting mix of these two galactic family lines and one of the reasons there is so much viewing from the galaxy is because we are on the threshold of a long period of integration and balancing of both aspects.

Not only are we at a nexus point in our earthly evolution, but it is a nexus point of many galactic (and karmic) cyclical histories coming together in a vast crucible of connections.

Let's for a moment look back at our own recent history and recall a little bit from an important period of time ... the Age of Enlightenment.

THE AGE OF ENLIGHTENMENT

The Age of Enlightenment, also known as the Age of Reason, was an intellectual and philosophical movement in Europe during the 17th and 18th centuries.
It was characterized by a focus on reason and individualism that promoted ideas of progress, freedom, and equality as well as challenged traditional authority in those days. 
But unlike what you might think today, the Enlightenment thinkers of that time sought to apply scientific methods and rational inquiry to all aspects of human life, including politics, religion, philosophy, and social organization.

Central to the Enlightenment was a belief in the power of human reason to understand and improve the world.

Philosophers such as John Locke, Voltaire, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and Immanuel Kant emphasized the importance of critical thinking in the pursuit of knowledge. 

They advocated religious tolerance, political reform, and the separation of church and state, challenging the authority of monarchs, aristocrats, and religious institutions. 

Enlightenment ideas played a crucial role in shaping the great political revolutions of the late 18th century, including the American, French (European) and Russian revolutions, which sought to establish democratic governance based on the principles of individual rights and popular sovereignty.

The Enlightenment had a profound impact on Western civilization, laying the foundation for modern liberal democracy with its emphasis on reason, analysis, and logic. 

While the Enlightenment was not without its contradictions and limitations, its legacy continues to shape our understanding of the world and our aspirations for a more just, rational, and enlightened society.

It coincided with the Scientific Revolution, which refers to a period of major scientific advances and changes in thinking about the natural world that occurred roughly between the 16th and 18th centuries. It was a time when traditional beliefs and theories about the universe, nature, and the human body were challenged and replaced with new ideas based on empirical evidence and observation.

Several key features characterize the Scientific Revolution:

• Shift to Empirical Observation
  One of the defining features of the Scientific Revolution was the increasing emphasis on empirical observation as the basis for understanding the world.
  This was a move away from philosophy and intuition to defining existence based solely on sensory observation of physical reality.
• Development of new Scientific Method:
  During this period, there was a systematic development of the scientific method, which emphasized experimentation, observation, hypothesis formation, and testing, with important figures as Sir Francis Bacon. 
• Huge advancements in Astronomy:
  Perhaps one of the most famous aspects of the Scientific Revolution was the revolution in astronomy, with figures as Copernicus, Kepler, and Galilei making groundbreaking discoveries that laid the foundation for the modern heliocentric model (Earth moving around the Sun).
• Huge advancements in Physics:
  The Scientific Revolution also saw significant advancements in the field of physics, with figures as Isaac Newton defining the laws of motion and universal gravitation, revolutionizing our understanding of how objects move and interact with each other.
• Spread (and containment) of (Scientific) Knowledge:
  The Scientific Revolution was also characterized by the dissemination of scientific knowledge through publications, spreading new ideas among scientists within the confined establishment of scientific societies.

Overall, the Age of Enlightenment as well as the Scientific Revolution marked a transformative period in human history, laying the groundwork for modern science and shaping our understanding of the (natural) world in profound ways.
While the Scientific Revolution and the period we know as the Renaissance partially overlapped most of the Renaissance predated the Age of Enlightenment. 

THE RENAISSANCE (14TH TO 17TH CENTURIES)

The Renaissance was a cultural and intellectual movement that began in Italy in the 14th century and spread throughout Europe in the centuries that followed.

It was characterized by a height of interest in classical art, music, literature, architecture, and philosophy based on ancient Greece and Rome.

The Renaissance saw advances in many fields, including art, music, literature, philosophy, and science.

Key figures of the Renaissance include Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Niccolò Machiavelli.

Summary

Where the Renaissance was more focused on cultural developments (intuitive-emotional), the Age of Enlightenment followed by Scientific Revolution was primarily concerned with the advancement of science and the development of the scientific method (intellectual-mental).

Despite the dominant emphasis on reason and rationalism, there were some individuals and movements within the Enlightenment era that explored mystical or spiritual dimensions of human experience.

A few Enlightenment thinkers, such as Emanuel Swedenborg, delved into mystical experiences and spiritual realms, blending scientific inquiry with mystical insights, alchemy, and esoteric traditions, but for the most part it was kept outside of mainstream philosophical discourse.

The Enlightenment critiqued traditional sources of authority such as the monarchy, the Church, and aristocratic privilege, advocating for greater individual rights and freedoms.

It challenged the authority of established churches and religious hierarchies, promoting a more personal and direct relationship with God/Source.

These movements contributed to significant social and cultural changes in their respective contexts.

The Enlightenment laid the groundwork for huge political revolutions around the world, demanding democratic reforms and the spread of scientific knowledge.

American Revolution (1775-1783)

The American Revolution was influenced by Enlightenment ideas about natural rights, representative government, and the social contract.

Many of the founding fathers of the United States, such as Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin, were influenced by Enlightenment philosophy and scientific thinking.

The success of the American Revolution against British rule served as a model and inspiration for later revolutionary movements.

French Revolution (1789-1799)

The French Revolution was deeply influenced by Enlightenment ideals of liberty, equality, and fraternity, as well as by social and economic grievances.

Enlightenment philosophers like Voltaire, Rousseau, and Montesquieu critiqued the monarchy, aristocracy, and Church, laying the groundwork for revolutionary change.

The French Revolution aimed to overthrow the absolute monarchy and establish a republic based on principles of popular sovereignty and citizenship.

Russian Revolution (1917)

Although it occurred much later than the American and French Revolutions, the Russian Revolution was also influenced by the Enlightenment, as well as other things related to power and economics.

The Russian Revolution of 1917, specifically the Bolshevik Revolution led by Vladimir Lenin, sought to overthrow the Tsarist Empire and establish a socialist state based on Marxist principles.

Thus, while the Scientific Revolution and the Enlightenment indirectly caused the political revolutions in America, France, and Russia, they contributed to a different intellectual way of thinking that fostered a revolutionary new way of thinking for social change.

This revolutionary shift in thinking, in turn, reshaped political, social, and economic systems and had a lasting impact on modern history.

Both movements emphasized the importance of individual rights and the capacity for personal growth through reason, education, and spiritual experience.

Both movements challenged established structures of authority, whether political, religious, or intellectual.

And now, as we look at the state of world affairs today, it looks like we've entered the next cycle!

EVOLUTION VS REVOLUTION

The signs are all too clear that humanity is on the brink of a great transformation that will bring about huge changes in our world at an enormously high pace.

Although evolution and revolution are two different concepts, they have a similar outcome ... systemic changes in various contexts including biology, sociology, economics, technology, politics, spirituality (religion) and more.

The big differences between them are the way the changes present themselves, the speed at which they come, and the amount of resistance that the process receives from the various opposing stakeholders.

Perhaps it could be said that Revolution is the process of Evolution making its way through Resistance.

Although it is becoming easier to see and feel where we are going, it is not so easy to put a time or date on it, as these changes are more about timing.

In general, it's been said that this year 2024 is about preparing for what's coming, (re-)placing the 'nodes' in the crucial places of the network so to speak, as well as many changes and preparations on a social, economic, political and legal level.

This will continue into next year, 2025, which is also a wonderful year for forerunners and precursors, as every major change is always first adapted by a few who bring it to the forefront.

This year will also be a year where we can expect a lot of big changes and big new things to be announced or introduced, a lot of things in the pioneering phase, the start-up phase, so that it becomes visible in our physical reality and the process of adaptation can begin.

The idea is that in the year 2026 the major changes will come to the majority of Earth's population, accompanied by the idea of contact with extraterrestrial civilizations and 'proof' that it is real, followed by major sightings in 2027.

But everything changes, so this is a very dynamic time, including its timing, but even if things would take a year or two longer, the changes are still coming in an incredibly short period of time.

On a cosmic scale, 250 Earth years is like the blink of an eye.

Even though the amount of change is huge, the process feels like an evolution, mostly because it feels like the future is extremely bright for us, for humanity.

And we can't wait for these things to appear in our physical reality.

Much love

THE RUBBER BAND ANALOGY

We have used, to describe this transformation on your planet, what is called the rubber band analogy. 

If you take one of your rubber bands and draw it very far back, let us say into negativity, as you have in the past, you will recognize that the farther back you have drawn into negativity, when you finally decide to let it go, it will snap that much farther and that much faster into the positive side.

And therefore we see your civilization as truly being on the brink, truly being on the threshold of monumental and instantaneous and inspirational change in a positive direction.

Much of what you may now perceive to be the violence that is escalating on the surface of your planet, from our perspective, is simply your civilization getting the last vestiges of its, shall we say, tantrums out of its system before you make the change.

You are now bubbling all this negativity up to the surface. 

No longer is it being covert.

No longer are you pushing it down into your subconscious and being secretive about this idea. 

You are bringing it all out into the open, so that you can display before everyone these ideas.

And so that everyone can truly see what is going on and say to themselves ...

"Is this the type of world we really desire, or do we desire something else? 
Perhaps a world of harmony, a world of peace.”

And reclaiming your birthright of creator hood, of ecstasy. 

Because you are made in the image of the Infinite. 

And what that means is that you are an infinite creator as well.
