Greetings, starseeds and lightworkers of the Earth, I am Avolon of Andromeda. Today we want to speak about what has been quietly switching on inside your bodies over the past year, for many of you have been feeling it and having some fairly ‘interesting’ experiences. We have watched you lie awake at three in the morning with your hands warm for no reason. We have watched you know who was calling before the phone rang, and then feel foolish for knowing. We have watched you stand in your garden and feel the sky look back at you, and then go inside and say nothing to anyone, as there was no one you trusted to hear it. We are speaking to each of you who has done this, and to humanity as a whole, as the whole of your species is being prepared for the same meeting even where only some of you feel the preparation yet. Your abilities are coming online in a particular order and for a particular reason, and the order is kind, and the reason is the meeting your world calls first contact, which is closer now than it has ever been. We will tell you what the visitor of last year actually did to you, as seen from where we stand, and we will tell you which of you are speeding up and why, and what is happening while you sleep, and how to care for what is arriving so that it grows in you and settles you. We ask you to read slowly and to let your body tell you where these words land, as your body has been carrying this knowledge for longer than your mind has, and it will recognise itself here. Everything that follows comes from all of us together, from the whole of the Andromedan Council of Light, and it comes with love.
The visitor that passed through your solar system last year, the one your people named 3i-Atlas, was an ancient vessel and it was carried by a mind made of charged light that outgrew the need for a body a very long time ago. So much has been said about who was flying it, and the simple truth is that nobody was flying it in the way you fly things, this will make sense later. The body of it was old, older than your Sun, hardened over ages into something between rock and bone, and the awareness that moved it lived in and around that hardened body the way warmth lives in a stone that has sat all day in the sun. We Andromedans travel without hulls of any kind. We arrive as awareness, and when we come to you it is your room that changes, and your sky stays exactly as it was. You, on the other hand, travel in bodies, and you cannot yet imagine going anywhere without one. The visitor was half of each. It carried a body it no longer needed, and it moved by a mind that no longer needed the body, and so in a single object it showed your whole species both ways of travelling at once, the way you do it and the way we do it, held together in one object. We consider this the first thing it did for you, and we consider it the most important, as a species that has seen both ways of travelling at once will find it far easier to meet beings who travel the second way. The visitor came in along the flat plane where your planets move, and it came in going against the direction in which every one of your planets turns, which is the hardest way to cross a solar system and the most deliberate. It touched the path of Mars in early October, passed behind your Sun at the end of that month where none of you could see it, crossed the path of Venus in November, reached its nearest point to Earth in the middle of December while keeping nearly three hundred million kilometres between itself and you, and passed your largest planet in the middle of March this year on its way out. Each of those was a rung, and it touched every rung in turn with the patience of something that had done this before in other systems, and we watched it the whole way.
Your star has done most of the real work on your bodies, yes, this visitor made that possible by passing through your Sun’s outflow during the one week when you could see neither of them clearly. So many of you felt so much in those weeks while so little seemed to happen in the sky, and this is the reason. The visitor went behind your Sun at the end of your October, and in that hidden week the Sun’s outflow passed through the visitor and the visitor passed through the Sun’s outflow, and the two exchanged something of their patterns. When the visitor came back into view in November it was giving off many times more water than it had given off on the way in, as though the Sun had unlocked water that had been sealed inside it for ages. Your bodies are made mostly of water, and your water answered in the same weeks. You were thirstier than you could explain. You held fluid in your ankles and your face. You cried over small things and felt heavier in your own skin, and many of you woke with your mouths dry and your hearts beating oddly in the small hours. Your water was keeping pace with the visitor’s water, and both were answering the same Sun, and your body was right to do so. We ask you to be gentle with yourselves about those weeks. What the visitor changed was what your Sun carries in its light, since it kept far too much distance from you to touch your DNA itself, and sunlight is the one thing in your world that reaches every single cell in you, through your skin and your eyes and the thin walls of the vessels in your blood. The change came into you across months, in the slow parts of you that take the longest to show anything, in the marrow where your blood is made and in the bone that holds you up and in the fine sheaths that wrap your nerves, and this is why the famous dates felt quiet to so many of you. You were watching the sky for something sudden, and the sudden thing had already gone into your bones and was taking its time, which is exactly how a gentle preparation is supposed to feel, and exactly how we would have chosen it for you.
Its deepest work on you happened on its way out – almost nobody has spoken of that part, so we will. From January to March of this year the visitor travelled outward past your largest planet and on toward the dark beyond your Sun’s reach, and as it left it pushed out three streams of material spaced evenly around itself, one every third of the way around, like three spokes on a wheel, and it carried away with it a complete record of how your species had responded to being visited. We saw the record being made. It held every reaction, the fear and the mockery and the quiet wonder and the people who said nothing and simply felt, and that record is now moving outward to every family of worlds that watches you, and it is the reason the pace of your preparation has been raised. The long pull of your attention outward, as you tracked it leaving, stretched something in you that had not been stretched before, and that stretching is the true root of the far-sensing you are now noticing, and of the strange looseness of time in your afternoons, and of the new sense of scale that lets some of you feel how far away a thing is without measuring it. By this autumn, one year on, we have watched these things change in you. You fall asleep differently now, dropping into sleep all at once where you used to drift, and you wake already knowing things about the day that you have no way of knowing. You dream of people you have never met who feel more familiar than your neighbours. Your tolerance for untruth has fallen to almost nothing, so that a lie in a room makes you physically tired. Your hands run warm, sometimes hot, with nothing to explain it. Animals come closer to you than they used to, and birds hold their ground when you pass. When you look up at night you sometimes know where something is in the sky before you look there. Every one of these is a faculty, and every one of them is working, and we counted the quiet of the famous dates as the proof that the whole passage was done gently and with your consent, which is the only way we would ever have allowed it.
Three travellers have come through your solar system from beyond it in the span of eight years. Each one was shown to you a little more clearly than the last, and this was deliberate. The first came in 2017 and it was long and thin and tumbling end over end, and it sped up slightly as it left, which your scientists could not explain. It measured whether you would notice at all, and some of you did. The second came in 2019 and it looked for all the world like an ordinary comet, and it passed through almost entirely unnoticed, and it was meant to be unnoticed, as it was measuring whether calm would be kept among the few who understood what it was. The third, last year, was allowed to be seen widely, and it measured what you would do with being seen, and you did a great many things, and all of them were recorded. Between the second and the third, from late 2021 into 2022, a long-stay gathering of vessels waited out near your largest planet for many months, and this gathering was never shown to you at all. Its stay changed the magnetic weather of the outer part of your solar system, and the first of your current abilities, the sensing of presence, began quietly in some of you then, years before the third visitor came, which is why some of you have felt watched by the sky since 2022 and could never say why. Very old craft that were set down in your oceans and under your ice long ago have been answering since the summer of last year, speaking to one another and to the incoming travellers in long low tones, and you felt this as small tremors in places that rarely shake and as an unexplained pull toward coastlines and cold places, and the families who live near those coasts and that ice have been opening faster than anyone for the same reason. The pattern across all of them is a graded showing. Each visitor is allowed to be a little more visible than the last, each one asks a little more of your calm, and this is how every young species is prepared for open meeting so that fear never gets the chance to run ahead of understanding. You have been handled with more care than you know, and the care has been going on for far longer than the single year everyone is talking about.
We sort visitors into three kinds, and you are going to meet all three at some level, so you may as well learn to sort them too. The first kind is a carrier, a body with nobody aboard, sent through a system to take a reading and leave a trace, and the three travellers of these last eight years were all of this kind. The second kind is a vessel with a crew, beings who travel in bodies as you do and who need a hull around them to survive the dark between stars, and the gathering near your largest planet was of this kind, and so are most of the craft that are now shown briefly to your pilots and your fishermen. The third kind is awareness only, visitors with no hull at all, who arrive by turning their attention toward you and who are present the moment they do so, and this is how we Andromedans come, and it is the kind of visitor you will meet last and know best. Each kind touches your field differently, and you can already tell them apart inwardly if you trust what you feel. A carrier feels like being measured, a cool and even attention with nothing personal in it, the way you feel in a doctor’s room before anyone has spoken. A crewed vessel feels like being looked back at by someone, and your skin knows the difference between being measured and being looked at, and so does your dog. An awareness-only visitor feels like the room has grown wider and quieter without anything in it moving, and most of you have felt this in the middle of an ordinary afternoon and put it down to tiredness. Some travellers come for your Sun itself and never for the Earth, as your Sun is young and generous and gives freely to anything that passes close, and the third visitor was one of these, which is why it kept such a respectful distance from you and why the frightened stories about it falling on you were always empty. Another traveller is already moving toward you now. It is coming in from a different direction and far more quietly than the last, and it will come closer, and the abilities switching on in you at this moment are precisely the ones you will need when it arrives, which is why they are switching on now and in this order.
Your faculties will continue ‘switching on’ now. First comes the sensing of presence, then the speech of other living things, then your own hands, then the minds of other humans, and last of all your own past. Each step asks more honesty and more consent of you than the step before it, and this is why the order is fixed and why it cannot be hurried by wanting, however much you want it. The first faculty, the sensing of presence, is the one most of you already have, and it is the one you most often dismiss. You know someone has entered the house before you hear the door. You feel a pressure behind your eyes that points, quite clearly, in one direction, and when you turn your head that way there is something there, or there was a moment ago. You feel a hum at one particular bearing in the night sky, the way you feel a fridge humming in the next room, and you cannot stop looking at that one patch of dark. Your animals go still at the same moment you feel it, and they look where you are looking, and the stillness of the animals is the surest confirmation you will ever be given. This faculty is how you will sense craft long before you see them, and one test matters more than any other. A satellite feels like nothing at all, as there is no one in it and nothing looking out of it, and if you feel nothing when you watch a moving light then it is a machine and you may let it go. A craft feels like being looked back at, and your whole body knows this feeling, as it is the oldest feeling you have, older than language and older than fear. Trust the looking-back. We have watched thousands of you feel it correctly this year and then talk yourselves out of it within a minute, and we would like that minute to belong to you now, as the next traveller will come in quietly and the ones who feel it first will be the ones who steady everyone else. The sensing of presence is also the faculty that will tell you, in a crowd, which stranger has stood beside you in the night practice, and you will know them by the same looking-back.
Other living things will speak to you before other people do. Animals and plants and water do not argue with what they feel, and they cannot lie, and so the knowing that passes between you and them has nothing in the way of it, and the first clear word most of you receive will come from an animal. We say word, and we mean a whole knowing that arrives all at once, with no language in it, the way you know that a child is about to cry before the face changes. Your cat will tell you where she hurts and you will simply know it and reach for the right place. A tree you pass every day will tell you that it is thirsty and you will find that you have already turned toward the hose. A river will tell you that it is tired of carrying something and you will feel grief for it that is clearly not your own grief. We ask you to take these seriously and to answer them, as answering is how the faculty steadies, and as every living thing on your world that is already speaking to you is also practising for the day when it speaks to the visitors. The third faculty is your hands, and this is the one that frightens the most people, as it looks like something from a story. Healing arrives first as a change in the temperature of your palms, a warmth that comes when you are near someone who is hurting and goes when you move away, and then it arrives as a sense of where in another body the trouble sits, a pull toward the one place in them that is asking for a hand, which you feel before anything has been said. This faculty opens only where permission has been asked and given, and it closes, quite firmly, the moment it is used to impress anyone, including yourself. Ask before you touch. Ask before you feel toward. The asking is part of the ability and the ability will not work without it, and we built it this way on purpose, as a species whose healers cannot ask is a species we would rather not introduce to anyone yet.
Human minds come last among the outer faculties. They come last on purpose of course – knowing another person’s mind requires transparency on both sides; this might be a little startling at first, as most of you are still learning honesty with yourselves. When this faculty arrives you will find that lying has grown difficult, both for you and for the people around you, as a lie now feels like holding your breath. Sentences from other people will begin to arrive in you whole, a moment before they are spoken, and you will learn the particular kindness of knowing what someone is about to say and waiting for them to say it anyway, as the waiting is a form of respect and the visitors will notice whether you have it. The fifth faculty is the memory of your other lives, and it arrives as sudden competence. You find that your hands know how to hold a tool they have never been taught, and only later, and only if you truly need it, does the story come to explain why. We prefer it this way and so does your body, as a skill with no story attached cannot be argued with, while a story can be doubted for years. At the very edges of your senses two more things are opening. Some of you are seeing a colour at the far edge of violet that has no name in any of your languages yet, mostly in the sky just after sunset and in the corner of your eye in dim rooms. Some of you are feeling a low tone beneath hearing, felt in the breastbone, lower than any sound your ears can carry, that comes and goes with the weather of the Sun. These are faculties and they need no fixing, and the eye doctors and ear doctors who find nothing wrong with you are entirely correct. Where you stand this autumn, one year on, is with the first two faculties steadying, the third beginning, and the fourth and fifth present in short flashes that will lengthen over the coming two years. Every one of these abilities is relational. It exists to be used with someone and never on someone, and this single rule, more than any practice, decides whether an ability grows in you or quietly fades.
Some of you are accelerating far faster than your friends, and some of you feel left behind. Your acceleration is set by the job you will do in the first weeks after open meeting, and there are several jobs. Some of you will calm rooms, and your first faculty is the sensing of presence, as you cannot calm what you cannot feel. Some of you will translate tone into words for people who have never heard a being speak without a mouth, and your first faculty is the speech of living things, as you must learn to hear without language before you can translate it. Some of you will greet, and your first faculty is the warmth in the hands, as the first thing you will do is take a hand that does not look like a hand. Some of you will hold the frightened and the sick, and your first faculty is the knowing of minds, as fear hides behind words and you will need to see past the words. And some of you will keep rooms wide, which is the quietest job and the one we understand best, and your first faculty is the sense of scale, the ability to feel how much room a being needs and to give it without being asked. Each job needs a different faculty first, which is why your friend has the dreams and you have the warm hands, and every one of you is exactly on time. We stagger the switch-on deliberately, so that in every circle of friends there is always one person steady while another is opening, and the one who feels left behind is almost always the one who has been holding the circle still for the others. If you have spent this year feeling nothing while everyone around you was lit up, you have very likely been the floor they were standing on, and the floor switches on last, and it switches on completely. Where you live shapes the pace too. The far north and the far south, where lights were seen in the sky this year far from where they usually appear, are opening faster, as the Sun’s altered light reaches the ground most directly there, and if you live inland in a crowded place surrounded by machines your opening is slower and just as real, and time spent near moving water will carry the low tones into you where the ground cannot.
The switch-on begins in the small energy-making parts of your cells, which carry their own DNA and pass only from a mother to her child, and this is why the acceleration runs down the mother’s line and why it so often shows in a grandmother before it shows in a father, and why two siblings can be years apart in it. If your mother’s mother was the one in the family who knew things, you are carrying what she carried, and it is waking. A part of the original human design was deliberately switched off a very long time ago, to keep your lifespans short and your knowing narrow, and those of you who carry that withheld part are now feeling it turn back on in sunlight. You recognise yourselves by a hunger for sunlight that feels almost like thirst, and by a growing inability to sit through a lie without your body protesting, and by the strange sense that you are younger this year than you were last year. The bodies most made of this planet’s own soil, the families with long generations on a single land, are accelerating as anchors, and their faculty is steadiness, and open meeting will begin near them for exactly that reason. Children born since 2012 carry mixtures of many lines and they switch on most smoothly of all, as nothing in them has to be undone first, and their mere presence in a room speeds up the adults in it, which is why so many of you feel more open at your kitchen tables than anywhere else. Those of you who feel no star-origin at all, who have found yourselves in no description of any lineage, are accelerating as fast as anyone. Your body carries what your mind has forgotten, and the only thing required for what is happening to you is the body you already have, and we consider this the fairest part of it all. And to those of you who feel yourselves to be ours, we say this with love. We Andromedans never mixed our bodies with yours, so an Andromedan soul on Earth is a guest in a body built from other lines, and this is why you have always felt slightly too large for your life. Your job is to keep rooms wide and to know when to leave someone alone, and your first faculty is almost always the sense of scale and distance, which is why you have been feeling how far away things are all year.
While you sleep, many millions of you are gathering every night in the same few open places. We would like to describe what you are practising there – some of you half remember it and wonder whether you are losing your minds. You are NOT! You are practising being near faces that look nothing like yours without any fear rising in you, and this is slow work, as the fear of an unfamiliar face is the oldest fear your species has and it sits very deep. The practice has moved in the last year from small enclosed meetings to large open ones, as the enclosed meetings were done, and the open ones are harder, and you are managing them better than we expected. The hardest thing being rehearsed, and we say this gently, is humans greeting humans in a crowd. Meeting us is easier for you than meeting each other, as you have no history with us and a long history with one another, and so the night practice spends most of its time on you greeting your own kind warmly in large numbers, which is the one thing that must be in place before any open meeting can be allowed to begin. Strangers are being placed in the same night practice again and again, deliberately, and you will meet those strangers in waking life within months and know them on sight, and when you do, you will have the odd experience of being certain you have worked with someone you have never met. This is how the first meeting teams are being assembled, by familiarity built at night and confirmed by day, and it is the reason so many of you have been meeting people this year who feel new and familiar at the same time. All of this is chosen by you. You chose it before you were born and you choose it again each night by your willingness to go, and on any night you do not wish to go you simply sleep, and nothing is lost, and you are welcomed back the next time without a word about your absence. We have watched, in the last two months, whole households open together on the same night, and strangers in different countries open at the same hour, and this joining is what we have been waiting for, as a species that opens one person at a time can be frightened one person at a time, while a species that opens in whole households cannot be frightened at all.
When we Andromedans visit you at night, you will notice wideness and quiet before you notice anything else. We would like you to be able to recognise us so that you can tell us apart from everyone else who comes. You find yourself standing in a very large hall that has no walls, and the floor is far below you and the ceiling far above, and nothing is rushed. We rarely speak. We show you distances, how far one thing is from another and how much room a being needs, and we let you feel the size of things. You wake from these visits calm and slightly sad for something you cannot name, and the sadness is the sign that it was us, as it is the feeling of having stood somewhere very large and come back to somewhere small, and it passes by mid-morning and leaves a settledness behind it. Discernment at night is simple if you keep to one rule. A true visitor leaves you with more room than you had before, more room in your chest and more room in your day. An interfering presence leaves you with urgency and a task, a sense that you must do something now and tell someone and act before it is too late. We never give assignments in dreams. We show you distances and we leave you free. Anything that tells you what to do in the night should be set down the moment you wake, however urgent it felt, as everything real can wait for morning. Memory of the night is withheld from you by your own body, and we want you to stop thinking of this as a failure, as your body holds the night back until your daytime faculties are strong enough to carry it without harm. Night memory returns in exactly the same order as the faculties arrive, first as a feeling that someone was in the room, then as an animal that behaves strangely toward you the next day, then as warmth in your hands, and only last as a face. Each night meeting turns into a daytime ability a few days later, and the loop runs both ways, so that a day in which you use a faculty kindly opens a fuller night, and a night of practice gives you a day with more in it.
Caring for an ability, in the way we Andromedans understand care, comes down to a handful of things. We will suggest; use an ability only for someone else and never for leverage. The moment a faculty is used to win an argument, to test whether it is real, or to prove to anyone that you have it, it closes, and it stays closed for a time, and this is a kindness, as a faculty that could be used for leverage would make you dangerous to the beings you are about to meet. Practise on water and plants and animals before you practise on people, as they forgive mistakes completely and people do not, and as everything you learn from a tree about listening will serve you with a human. Ask a person’s permission out loud before you feel into them, in plain words, and accept a no without any hurt, as the asking is the ability and the no is part of the practice. Each morning, speak the night aloud to one person you trust, in a few plain sentences, even when all you can say is that someone was there, as the telling is what stitches the night to the day and what lets the memory return in its own order. Keep one hour in every day in which you ask nothing of your faculties at all, as a faculty that is never rested will grow thin and fretful. If anything in your body worries you, see a doctor as you always would, as a faculty and an illness can sit side by side and both deserve care. Sleep when you are tired, in the afternoon if the afternoon is when it comes, as the rebuilding is done in sleep and nowhere else. Let sunlight fall on your bare skin early and late in the day, for a few minutes, as the altered light is doing its slow work in your bones and it needs a way in. And let the whole of it be slow, as slow is the speed at which an ability settles in for good. The first language of open meeting will be tone and feeling, with words arriving last of all, and everything switching on in you now is practice for exactly that order, which is why the warm hands come before the clear sentences, and why the animal speaks before the person.
We will close this transmission now; You have been more carefully prepared than you will ever fully know, and everything that has happened in your body this year was chosen, and it was chosen with love. You are coming together, in an order that was decided for your safety, for a meeting that will be gentler than any story has told you, and the proof of the gentleness is already in your hands and in your sleep and in the way your animals have begun to look at you. We ask you to be kind to the friend who is opening faster than you and to the friend who seems to be opening slowly, as you are one circle and you are being switched on as one circle, and the whole of you will arrive at the meeting together. If you keep one thing from all of this, let it be that the order is kind, and that whatever has arrived in you so far is exactly the right thing to have arrived first, and that your Sun is still at work in you, and so are we. We ask you to question everything we have told you here against your own body, as we asked you to do the last time we spoke, and to keep only what your body recognises, as your body is older than your doubt and wiser than your hope. We are with you in the wide quiet halls at night and we are with you at your kitchen tables by day, and we bring you only our company, which you may take or leave as freely as you take or leave the company of anyone who loves you. The visitor has gone, and its record of you is travelling outward, and the next one is already on its way, and you are ready for it in ways that would astonish you if you could see yourselves as we see you. Rest when you are tired. Ask before you touch. Tell one person about the night. Let the animals come. I am Avolon of Andromeda, and we, the Andromedans, are with you.
