Thus, in the same sense, Arrival energy is the newly emerging form of humanity’s agreements for life on Earth. Ancient Wisdom is the energy and understanding available on Earth prior to the emergence of Departing energy. We live in a time of great shift and the following explains the basis for the change we all experiencing.
