The planet may sneeze once or twice

Friends,
HPB wrote that the challenges and tragedies of the last centuries in human
soul will be successfully solved "before the end of 21st century".
No easy time up to then.
A friend of mine, who studies the SD since the 1970s as few people may have
done, and who is most interested in the cycles enigma, says at up to 2020 we
will see a lot of things.
USA State Department and USA military experts agree, though they have only
conventional science sources.
I gave the references and details of this in an article already published
in "The Aquarian Theosophist".
The planet is in good health, as cycle-changes are perfectly normal. Yet
the planet may be about to sneeze a few times in the next 'seconds' of its
geological time.
"Important microorganisms" as us better pay attention.
After the sneezes, a sense of relief will certainly follow.
Just before the sneeze, there usually is a sense of anxiety, some blind
impulses.
The sneeze itself ejects lots of useless things at the physical level. Good
for us.
Best regards, Carlos.

Where are the mediums when you need them? Can't get a forewarning on the
land downunder.
