"The Event", or "oops I did it again". Don't be gullible.
Add just a pinch of discernment.

Here's how this kind of thing works:

The main people putting this out are sharing a theme for gaining attention and amassing followers. They are piggy-backing to create a sense of consensus. That's one major form of marketing within the "truther" and "new age" demographics.

When March and April come and go, and the world is still crazy, the people pushing this will say "the event is real, and it's happening right now. It's been happening. It's a personal process, individual to each of you". Well yeah. No shit. It's called living life and personal development.

Those who afterward remain and continue listening will be their little tried and true cult followers, "part of the tribe" who will continue believing the bullshit. The cult leaders will gain enrollments into their hypnosis and channeling "training courses" or consultations, for a fee "representing your side of a necessary exchange of energy required by the universe... It's not about the money".

Got it?

Now look, I'm all about spiritual development. If their suggestions ("The Event" is a hypnotic suggestion in itself) cause some people to start assessing their own attitudes and way of life, great. On the other hand, taking advantage of and capitalizing in some way on other's spiritual needs and yearnings is sad but nothing new. It's been going on since the dawn of mankind.

I'm not trying to be cynical or a downer, just trying to keep it real.

Don't be gullible. You can thank me for this post later. You'll find this kind of thing occurs often.

Somehow you pulled that I "don't want to love" out of your ass. If I don't jump on the band wagon and believe in The Event, it's because I'm "the problem" who doesn't want to love. Sounds like the beginnings of some third-rate cult. I guess you'll make a good follower.

Re: "The Event", or "oops I did it again". Don't be gullible.
So I watched this:



and this...



Allegedly two independent sources claiming a March this year date for 'The Event'.

I have my own history about 'The Event' that I won't go into, however either: a) Both of these people are in it for personal fame/money, or they are plain deluded new age idiots, or b) The core of what they are saying is true, i.e. by the end of March Earth would have gone through a dimensional shift.

From my logical perspective, I have heard all of this type of information before, from people who sound, and behave as if they are genuine about what they say, and then soon realized through experience that most of these 'new age' people are BAT SHIT CRAZY.

The kernel of what I think is truth which this only remotely resembles is: our possibly helical solar system might be moving toward a region of space that has an energetic quality we aren't accustomed. That probably isn't something abrupt, and I don't have a timeline. I would guess "soon" in terms of known history.

I actually believe in "The Event", and much of the general cosmology that underpins the idea. I even give some credibility to these recent reports it may be imminent. It's intriguing!

But even so, I'm still working hard on my very "3D" programming project, even though it would be a completely wasted effort if the event were to occur very soon.

The event is very welcome to swipe our feet off the ground and transmute reality as we know it any day it pleases, and I'll be ecstatic when it does! But until then, this is the reality we live in, and I for one intend to make the most of it while it lasts.

"If you are sure the world ends tomorrow, plant a tree today."

(Or implement a compiler for a programming language, if that's more your kind of gardening.)

How will you even realize it did or didn't happen? Most will have no recollection of 'the event' and life will go on. I expect we'll see many more Mandela Effect threads and many more people calling bullshit.

"The Event" is just a transition to what some call a "Buddha-Land", don't worry, it will all work out just fine.
