Most of us are obsessed with and controlled by time.
- What’s the time?
- I’m running out of time
- Time has flown by
But what is time, and why does it seem to be speeding up?
Feeling like time is flying by isn’t unique to me, so I’m researching why it seems that way.
Why does it feel like time is speeding up and the days are shorter?
I remember being in elementary school in the 80s, and it seemed like the Summer Breaks would go on forever.
I mean so much, so I looked forward to returning to school in the Fall.
Each year, however, especially by the time I reached High School in the late 1980s, it seemed to pass more quickly.
In 2026, it seems like time is going by at a breakneck pace.
Remember to research and draw conclusions about any topic you read or hear about.
Is Time Speeding Up?
Is our perception of time changing, or is something more fundamental at play?
Have you ever felt like the moment is slipping through your fingers like sand?
Days blur into weeks, months into years, and the once-distant future seems to be hurtling toward us at an alarming pace.
This feeling, often attributed to the busyness of modern life, may have a more profound explanation: time itself may be accelerating.
The time-speeding-up phenomenon is nothing new.
Think about how fast a month goes. It was just winter, and now we are in the middle of spring. Time or perception was moving faster and faster and charging up.
More light is entering our realm, and light is information, and this causes the Quickening and the Ascension Process.
It sure seems that way to everyone I have spoken to about it. Einstein concluded that the faster we move, the slower time appears to pass; conversely, the slower we move, the faster time appears to pass. Time is a perceptual experience.
Time Speeding Up Phenomena
This time speeding up phenomenon, known as “The Quickening”, has been the subject of much debate among scientists, philosophers, and everyday people.
While there is no single, definitive explanation for time speeding up, several intriguing theories attempt to shed light on this mysterious experience.
One possible explanation for why time appears to be speeding up is that our perception of time is changing.
As we age, our brains process information more efficiently, making time seem to pass quickly.
Additionally, the rapid technological advancements and information overload of the 21st century may be causing us to pack more experiences into each day, making time feel compressed.
Another theory of time speeding up suggests that the fabric of spacetime itself is undergoing some subtle shift.
This could be due to the expansion of the universe, the influence of dark matter or dark energy, or an unknown force altogether.
If this is the case, the Quickening would be a subjective feeling and an objective change in how time flows throughout the cosmos. (1)
The implications of Time Speeding are vast and far-reaching.
If time were to speed up, it could significantly affect our understanding of physics, our relationship to the past and future, and even our sense of reality.
Accelerating time could also pose practical challenges, such as adjusting our calendars and clocks to keep pace with the changing flow.
While the Quickening remains a mystery, its potential consequences are too significant to ignore. Scientists continue to investigate this phenomenon, and discoveries may one day provide us with a definitive answer.
We can only ponder the implications of a universe where time is no longer a constant but a variable in the grand equation of existence. (2)
Here are some additional thoughts and questions to consider:
- If the Quickening is real, what are the ethical implications of manipulating or controlling it?
- Could the Quickening signify something even more profound, such as the approaching end of days?
- What does the Quickening mean for our individual lives and our place in the universe?
The Quickening is a complex and fascinating phenomenon that challenges our understanding of time and reality. As we learn more about it, we may unlock some of the universe’s deepest secrets.
In addition to the theories mentioned in the article, here are a few other ideas that have been proposed to explain the Quickening:
- Some people believe that we live in a computer simulation, and the Quickening may indicate that the simulation is accelerating.
- According to this theory, there are infinitely many parallel universes, and the Quickening could result from our universe interacting with another in which time flows more slowly.
- The Quantum Zeno Effect: This phenomenon suggests that observing a system can affect its behavior. Our awareness of it may be accelerating it.
(FYI: Snopes debunks this theory.)
Space-Time Continuum
Is time simply information encoded into the fabric of reality’s waveform?
This idea may seem a bit ‘woo woo’ for some, but go with me on this.
The way our body/ mind decodes time dictates how fast or slow it goes.
Have you ever heard of the space-time continuum?
So, what exactly is this “space-time continuum” everyone in sci-fi movies yells about right before the spaceship explodes?
Back in the day, everyone thought space was just a giant, empty room where stuff happened, and time was a completely separate cosmic clock ticking away reliably in the background.
Then Albert Einstein showed up, looked at the universe, and essentially said, “Hold my hair gel.”
Einstein proved that space and time aren’t separate at all; they are woven together into a single, seamless, four-dimensional fabric called space-time. Think of it like a giant trampoline.
If you drop a heavy bowling ball (like a planet or a star) onto it, the fabric warps and stretches.
That warping is what we experience as gravity.
But here is where it gets trippy for our daily commutes: because space and time are joined at the hip, stretching space also stretches time.
How This Connects to Your Missing Afternoon
If space-time is flexible, then time isn’t a rigid, universal constant—it’s entirely relative. It changes depending on how fast you’re moving and how much gravity is pulling on you.
While physicists use atomic clocks to measure these micro-adjustments, our minds and bodies might be doing their own version of cosmic decoding.
If the frequency of our environment is shifting, or if we are packing a metric ton of digital information into our brains every second, we are fundamentally changing how we move through that space-time fabric.
Essentially, your brain is a biological clock trying to read a universe that refuses to stay static.
So the next time you look at the clock and wonder how a “five-minute break” turned into three hours, don’t blame your poor attention span.
Just blame Einstein. You weren’t slacking; you were merely experiencing the fluid, warping nature of the continuum.
Why Could Time be Speeding?
The global electromagnetic resonance phenomenon is named after German Physicist Professor Winfried Otto Schumann, who, in 1952, calculated that electromagnetic standing waves are formed in the space between the ionosphere and Earth’s surface.
This was confirmed in 1954 with resonance detection, with an overall global frequency of 7.83 Hz.
This electromagnetic pulse is generated mainly by the combined effect of worldwide lightning discharges, which release very high-frequency (VHF) radiation between 1 kHz and 30 kHz, followed by a shallow-frequency (VLF) band below 2 kHz.
Their combined effect produces electromagnetic waves, which circumnavigate the Earth.
In addition to the average very-low-frequency constant of around 7.83 Hz, there are frequency harmonics of 14, 20, 26, 33, 39, and 45 Hz, known as the “Schumann Resonances.” (3)
According to Wikipedia, Nikola Tesla was the first to research this fundamental frequency in 1899. For thousands of years, the Schumann Resonance, also known as “the pulse of the Earth“ or the Earth’s heartbeat, has been steady at 7.83 cycles per second.
It is not strictly accurate to call Schuman Resonance the Earth’s heartbeat. It is more like the pulse on the surface. This manifests as the heartbeat, which originates in Earth’s electromagnetic iron core.
The Schumann Resonance is so consistent as an accurate measure of time that the military uses it as a reliable reference point.
Time Is Going By Faster
“The Quickening” is an unrivaled opportunity for humanity to evolve and spiritually awaken at an unprecedented rate, consciously.
Everyone and everything is vibrating at a faster pace. Accordingly, time will pass more quickly. It is at the point that it is physically affecting your body. You may be doing less than before, but you can’t keep up.
However, according to Gregg Braden, a geologist, author, and researcher, this pulse has accelerated since 1980 to more than 12 cycles per second, twice what it was in the mid-1980s.
Instead of the 24-hour day to which we are accustomed, we are now experiencing a 16-hour day. Every cell in the physical body is trying to synchronize with this accelerated pulse to keep in time with Mother Earth.
This explains why we experience days, weeks, months, and seasons that seem to “fly by.”
This may also explain why so many people always seem to be in a hurry. Are they just reacting to their own body’s attempt to synchronize with the accelerated pulse of the Earth?
At the same time, according to Gregg Braden, the Earth’s rotation is slowing. His research shows that the Earth’s electromagnetic field has declined by 40% over the past 2000 years, with 6% of that decline occurring in the past 100 years.
He suggests that we will be at a zero-point magnetic field when the Earth slows its rotation to a near-standstill and the resonant frequency reaches 13 cycles.
The Gothenburg Flip
At this point, the Earth will stop rotating and, following 2 to 3 days, will begin turning again in the opposite direction. This will produce a reversal in the magnetic fields around the Earth, after which they will start to grow stronger.
The endpoint of the Mayan calendar may well be connected to this next magnetic pole shift. Most sources agree that the last complete reversal was about 780,000 years ago, although the average time between reversals is only 250,000 years.
Thirteen thousand years ago, a magnetic field shift known as the Gothenburg Flip occurred. This was not a total pole reversal, so we are overdue for another one at any time. (4)
Scientists have calculated that the poles will not reverse for another 2000 years; however, they measure time linearly. Time is not linear; it is cyclical, which means this date is inaccurate.
This declining magnetic field results in global warming and erratic weather patterns worldwide. If we could accelerate Earth’s rotation to match the declining magnetic field, we would observe significant changes in the planet.
So are our bodies because we are made of the same matter.
Whatever the earth experiences within her body, we also experience in ours. Metaphysicians and Quantum Physicists acknowledge this, and the term “ascension symptoms“ refers to our growing physical challenges.
Scientists tell us that the Earth’s frequency is identical to the alpha-wave rhythm of the human brain.
Our bodies must adapt to the Earth’s lowered magnetic field. This will make it more possible for humans to access altered states of consciousness naturally.
Others believe that this frequency is also the human body’s resonant frequency. As this frequency changes, so too do consciousness and evolution.
What Can You Do About Time Moving Faster?
We have to adjust to this new reality. We must ‘trim the fat’ from our lives and focus only on what is truly important. Trying to keep up with the apparent time reduction will ‘burn you out,’ so I have suggestions below to help you adjust.
- Eat healthy, natural foods and drinks.
- Drink plenty of water.
- Get good sleep every night.
- Let go of toxic relationships.
- Stay spiritually and physically grounded.
- Rest and relax more.
- Stop multitasking and focus on a single task.
- Spend more moments in nature.
- Meditate daily.
- Learn to focus your mind on the present moment.
- Stop listening to mainstream media.
- Collaborate with like-minded people.
- Build a community where you help one another.
Conclusion
Whether it is a byproduct of our aging brains processing information more efficiently, the relentless clip of the digital age, or deeper cosmic shifts like “The Quickening,” the sensation that time is slipping through our fingers is a profound, universal experience.
From the steady pulse of the Schumann Resonance to the micro-adjustments of atomic clocks, science and metaphysics both hint that our relationship with time is evolving.
Ultimately, we may not be able to slow down the rotation of the Earth or halt the influx of modern distractions, but we can control our response to them.
By grounding ourselves in the present moment, prioritizing what truly matters, and giving our minds space to rest, we can find our anchor—no matter how fast the world appears to spin.
