[@guidedmeditation2396]

Our magnetic poles have been migrating at an ever faster pace in recent years. For a while the magnetic pole was traveling towards Siberia at 3 kilometers per year but it is now traveling at 32 kilometers per year and speeding up. Why? And what does it matter? As you know the Galaxy is like a flat disc. The billions of stars around the central black hole in the middle of our galaxy operates on the very same principle as Saturn's magnetic field which creates its rings along a flat disc of gravity at its equator. Our solar system moves as a single entity as the galaxy spins around and our entire solar system goes up and down like a carousel horse traveling up into the positive side of the galaxy and then down to the negative side of the galaxy. The Mayan calendar refers to the point when the solar system is at the exact center of the galactic plane which is what all the fear around 2012 was about when we were exactly there. This flat disc of gravity created at the dielectric inertia plane of the black hole is something all planets in our solar system have. Even the earth has an asteroid belt just not as pronounced as that of Saturn. All of this leads to the fact that the earth with its bipolar +/- energy field will float in space one direction when it is on the positive side of the Galaxy, and flip when it goes to the other side. We have been traveling to the other side of the galactic plane for 9 years. Our earth's magnetic molten core can move independently of the outer crust but like the viscous coupling in an automatic transmission, when it speeds up it slowly moves the crust as well thereby causing a pole shift. In this model it has been estimated that China with its billions of people will be under ice and snow in the coming decade while the USA will migrate towards the equator as the earth tilts on its axis. CLIMATE CHANGE ANYONE? None of this has anything to do with God being mad or anything done by mankind. The Global communists have just been trying to coopt the coming changes and harness them for their political advantage. This is a lot to take in so don't try to believe or understand it all at once. But keep it in the back of your mind as events unfold and as volcanos wake up, strange extreme weather occurs and crops fail, and as bizarre things like the Overthrow of America happens right in front of us. We have lived in the greatest time in human history. Hang on to that. We may have another great flood as the earth swaps poles too fast and displaces water. And there will be huge volcanic eruptions. It is not God being mad. God loves all his creations and as you witness the wonders of the world and fight to survive God is right there with you experiencing the event along side you.

Without volcanoes, most of Earth's water would still be trapped in the crust and mantle. Early volcanic eruptions led to the Earth's second atmosphere, which led to Earth's modern atmosphere. Besides water and air, volcanoes are responsible for Land formation, another necessity for many life forms.

Sir Attenborough is my hero now since 35 years when i started to study biology. I suppose, over decades he influenced generations by the way to look at things on that planet, on the planet itself. Planet Earth, Life, Sir Attenborough, they form a trinity for eternity. Many things he presented are now gone, sadly enough. His work should be truly part of the world cultural heritage. Guys, it is not just his voice! His scripts need not fear the comparison to high literature, his presentation not the company of pieces of classical theater. He is for Planet Earth and Life what Sir Gilgud has been for Shakespeare. ♥️♥️♥️
