It is all predictable and has been predicted for decades by many people. The underlying imprinting tells a large number of people to suppress free will (including virtually all people in all religions). Only a small percentage of people are doing the self healing needed to be liberated and to survive what is in process.

Instinct is not a tool of liberation. Instinct shuts down free will, it pre-determines a course of action and closes doors. Sometimes the outcome is helpful but sometimes it isn't. One instinct might be to take action to survive and one instinctual program might have you denying reality. Clearing out all instincts and being able to act on real intuition is necessary now.
