We live in a time of great Earth changes and upheaval which I call End Times in the simulation of reality. As planet Earth destabilizes - climate change and natural disasters are accelerating exponentially including flooding reminding us of biblical flood stories in which planet Earth was overrun by great floods only to begin again as the waters receded. There is no going back. About flooding
Crystalinks Flood Stories (Myths)
A flood myth or deluge myth is a symbolic narrative in which a great flood is sent by a deity, or deities, to destroy civilization in an act of divine retribution. Parallels are often drawn between the flood waters of these myths and the primeval waters found in certain creation myths, as the flood waters are described as a measure for the cleansing of humanity, in preparation for rebirth.
There are many flood myths. It is a theme widespread among most cultures, though it is perhaps best known in modern times through the biblical and Quranic account of Noah's Ark, the Hindu Puranic story of Manu, through Deucalion in Greek mythology, or Utnapishtim in The Story of Gilgamesh which takes us to the beginning - the Anunnaki.

Nepal's devastating floods reveal the danger of 'cascading hazards' in the Himalayas
The catastrophic glacial collapse in the high peaks of the Himalayas has left a path of profound devastation, serving as a visceral awakening to our planet's shifting reality. High along the rugged border zone connecting Nepal, China, and the autonomous region of Tibet, a colossal shelf of ancient ice and bedrock shattered, sending a terrifying wall of water, mud, and debris roaring through the narrow river canyons below. The immediate aftermath in Nepal is a sobering scene of swallowed villages, shattered infrastructure, and displaced communities grappling with a tragedy that struck with almost no warning.
This catastrophe is a severe manifestation of the irreversible climate change and escalating natural disasters that I post about. It represents a threshold that humanity has come to understand is the destiny of planet Earth - unfolding not in some distant, abstract future, but actively and undeniably today. The mountains, once thought to be eternal, are revealing a profound fragility under the weight of global warming, accelerating risks for millions living downstream.
As I watched events unfold, my mind went to the consciousness grids depicting this event as a marker for End Times. The fracturing of these ancient icy monolithic structures feels deeply symbolic, mirroring a larger breakdown within global systems and collective awareness. Our story is just one of many that began in chaos and is ending much the same way as the spiral of reality reverses on an accelerating daily basis - leaving humanity to contemplate the rapid transformation of reality.
Tibet has always been a deeply spiritual region that serves as a sanctuary for visitors from across the globe. In light of the recent tragedy, I wanted to share an image that was sent to me back in the 1990s. It features an unforgettable photograph of Tibetan Buddhist Monk, Choje Ayang Rinpoche, blessing deer at Nara Park on July 26, 1985.
This week I had my own rainbow experience connected to the passing of Dolly Parton. In the end, everything comes together in a universal matrix of sound, light, and color.
In Steven Spielberg's 2026 film Disclosure Day - Emily Blunt's character Margaret Fairchild is triggered when a red cardinal comes through her window and lands on the table in front of her. The rainbow in my Dolly Parton blog caught my attention when a pigeon landed on my railing and telepathically told me to look up at the rainbow. Josh O'Connor's character, Dr. Daniel Kellner, is triggered by a deer staring at him - both as a child, and as an adult. This morning I was drawn to the Tibetan monk picture with the rainbow and the deer. Closure Day and Disclosure Day - it's all connected.
Flood Stories July 2025 - U.S. rocked by four 1-in-1,000-year storms in less than a week. NBC - July 11, 2025
Climate change is making severe storms both more common and more intense. First the river rose in Texas. Then, the rains fell hard over North Carolina, New Mexico and Illinois. In less than a week, there were at least four 1-in-1,000-year rainfall events across the United States - intense deluges that are thought to have roughly a 0.1% chance of happening in any given year.

A disastrous megaflood is coming to California, experts say, and it could be the most expensive natural disaster in history CNN - August 13, 2022
Many Californians fear the "Big One," but it might not be what you think. It's not an earthquake. And it isn't the mega drought. It's actually the exact opposite. A megaflood.
A new study by Science Advances shows climate change has already doubled the chances of a disastrous flood happening in California in the next four decades. And experts say it would be unlike anything anyone alive today has ever experienced.

Greenland Is Literally Cracking Apart and Flooding the World Live Science - March 16, 2018
Visit Greenland on the right summer day, and you could see a 12-billion-gallon lake disappear before your very eyes. Glaciologists saw this happen for the first time in 2006, when a 2.2-square-mile (5.6 square kilometers) lake of melted ice drained away into nothing in less than 2 hours. Researchers now see such events as a regular part of Greenland's increasingly hot summer routine; every year, thousands of temporary lakes pop up on Greenland's surface as the surrounding ice melts, sit around for a few weeks or months, and then suddenly drain away through cracks in the ice sheet underneath. On a recent expedition, however, researchers saw an alarming new pattern behind Greenland's mysterious disappearing lakes: They're starting to drain farther and farther inland. That's because the summer lakes of Greenland drain in a "cascading" chain reaction enabled by a vast, interconnected web of cracks below the ice - and as temperatures climb, the web is getting wider.
Megafloods: What They Leave Behind Science Daily - January 17, 2014
South-central Idaho and the surface of Mars have an interesting geological feature in common: amphitheater-headed canyons. These U-shaped canyons with tall vertical headwalls are found near the Snake River in Idaho as well as on the surface of Mars, according to photographs taken by satellites. Various explanations for how these canyons formed have been offered -- some for Mars, some for Idaho, some for both.
The 20 Cities Most Vulnerable to Flooding Live Science - August 19, 2013
Researchers have just figured out which cities across the globe face the highest risk from coastal flooding. To do so, they compiled data on 136 coastal cities with more than 1 million residents, looking at the elevation of the cities, the population distribution and the types of flood protection they had, such as levees or storm-surge barriers. They then combined that data with forecasts of sea level rise, ground sinking due to groundwater depletion, as well as population growth projections and economic forecasts of gross domestic product (GDP). From there, they used the depth of water flooding a city to estimate the cost of the damage.
