There are SO MANY indicators of big change going on, at both the individual as well as the mass level; it's not a question of IF for anyone, but WHEN, in stepping into much bigger shoes of one's purpose (and it's VERY often NOT what one "thinks" it is!). Part of the "training" is being pushed to change in any moment, to allow for reality to be completely different in this moment from the last one. The level of "suffering" or "distress" is all about how one acts when faced with change... and how many times the message from the higher self has to hit us over the head! What to acknowledge, see, and shift for flow, flow, flow...
