Why Does Everything Feel Like It’s Falling Apart?

Living New Earth ~ with Mother Mary

John McCurdy

Hello dear friend,

A few months ago I shared our new class, Receiving Christ Consciousness, followed by a beautiful message from Mother Mary on compassion.

That class was deeply transformative for me, and Mother Mary’s messages—both in the class and afterward—so profound and beautiful that I assumed I would simply move forward and begin channeling much more from her.

But then everything stopped.

Oh, I still felt her presence, and my soul, and they showed me many of the things we would eventually talk about. Profound things. But the message was clear: It’s not time yet. Rest now. Take care of your life.

So that’s what I’ve been doing. Romana Aniya and I moved from our beloved mountain cottage in Slovenia to her family’s seaside flat in Croatia for the winter, and we’ve been resting—doing our best to stay present with all the craziness in our bodies and in the world.

And oh, the craziness. My heart aches as I watch what’s happening in my country of birth, and I see the same upheaval echoed everywhere. And yet, just beneath the surface, I feel something else entirely—something beautiful trying to emerge.

A few days ago I woke up tense, because I knew it was time. A part of me had grown comfortable not exposing myself and my truth so openly. But my soul was very clear: It’s time now—and you know you won’t be happy if you don’t.

So I set up my green screen and lights and recorded the message you’ll find here. It’s the beginning of a series exploring how we can live the New Earth right now, even as the Old Earth continues to rage around us.

I hope you enjoy it.

Blessings and love,
John McCurdy

Why Does Everything Feel Like It’s Falling Apart?

With Mother Mary, channeled by John McCurdy on 19 January 2026

This transcript has been lightly edited from the original recording to ensure that the intended meaning is conveyed as clearly as possible. Note that Hmm, Mmm, Ahh, and lines with just a dot signify places to pause, and to feel into yourself and what is being said. Comments in [square brackets] are editorial explanations rather than part of the message.

Ahh…

Greetings, dear friend!

Oh, it is I, the one that you know as Mother Mary. The one who birthed this dear friend who was called Yeshua two thousand years ago, known to most in modern times as Jesus. Yes, I had the privilege of being his mother in that lifetime.

Oh, and the church has made quite a spectacle of me! But that’s okay. It has helped a lot of people along the way—their perception of me. And that is the job, the role, that I took on after that lifetime, after my own enlightenment. I chose to come and be a symbol of compassion for people.

Ah, and I come here now.

Oh, John and I have been friends. His soul and I are friends. We’ve been friends since, oh, eons ago, long before that lifetime with Yeshua. And yes, John was there too. Not as part of the story that got written down exactly, but we were friends even then, as humans.

We’ve been close in this lifetime much more… [John tears up] Ah, much more than even John knows. And yes, we’re overwhelming him a little bit with the energies and the love that is here.

So, I am here at this time to continue my mission of compassion. Because there has never been a time, in all of existence, when compassion was needed more than it is now.

Mmm…

The world is changing, if you hadn’t noticed. And if you haven’t, then you’ve been living under the metaphorical rock somewhere.

Indeed, the world is changing.

This is the end of life on Earth as you have known it.

Oh, it’s not the end of life on Earth, or of human life on Earth. But this is the end of life as you have known it. That’s what is happening right now.

It looks like it’s all about to blow up, and it is. But not in the way you are afraid of.

All the old systems are blowing up. And you, dear friend, have been part of the voice that has called in the ones who are blowing it up.

Indeed, John looks out at the world at times and reads the news, and a part of him is so glad he lives in Europe now instead of in America, which is his homeland!

Hmm…

But dear friend, yes, when those people came into this lifetime they brought in a certain amount of craziness, because it was going to be needed. Because somebody has to do the dirty work of blowing up the old systems so that the new can emerge. And indeed, it is emerging.

The new is here now, emerging in human consciousness.

Oh, it’s going to take some time. It’s happening very quickly from the cosmic perspective, but it’ll take a little more time in human terms. And a lot less than you might expect.

A decade from now… If you were to see the Earth and humanity a decade from now from your current perspective, you would not recognize it.

It’s going to be more beautiful than you can imagine! Oh, and also more ugly.

How can that be?

Well, you see, there are many angels who came to Earth—and you need to remember that that is what you are. You are an angel who came to Earth and took on a body.

There are no angels that are grander than you. It takes a master angel to even be able to come to Earth, to be able to condense themselves down into this intense focus. So keep that in mind.

So, there are lots of angels who came to Earth for its original purpose, which was to be a place where the angels could learn, could grow, could come to an understanding of themselves and of their energies. Where they could come to an understanding of this thing called power and control.

Oh, that didn’t originate with humans. It originated with the angels, long before Earth came to be. Because as you began interacting with each other, you didn’t like what others were doing and so you wanted to control them, to change them, to change their creations.

And you learned how to—you could say—how to take their power. You could never hold on to it for very long, because they are sovereign beings and they take it back. And then they try to take yours.

Oh, and that—those battles—were far more intense than anything you’ve known on Earth, partly because you can’t die. Only on Earth can anything die, and that is only your body. It is not you.

So the battles became so intense, the energies began to slow down, creation began to slow down, and you finally called a meeting of the leaders and said, “We have to do something, because if this goes too far we might go out of existence.”

So Earth was created as a place to come and play out these games—that’s all they ever really were—in a slowed down way so that you could come to understand what was happening and how to manage your own energies.

You didn’t understand your energies then. Some little thought would pass through you and suddenly it would appear, it would manifest in front of you, or within you, and you would go, “Where did that come from? Why did that happen?”

You didn’t realize it was your own creation.

And so this large group decided to create a place in a little corner of a small universe where you could slow everything down and replay those battles and those games until you could understand what was really happening.

That’s why Earth is here. That’s why you are here.

There are many… Oh, if you are watching this or reading this, you have graduated. You have come to the end of your journey on Earth. You know yourself, now.

Oh, your human mind might not think you do, but you do. Otherwise, you would not be attracted to this.

So, you have graduated. You are ready to move on to your next adventure.

And at the same time there are many, many on Earth who are not ready. They are still playing out their experiences, and that is why Earth was created.

Oh, there are other places being built in other universes, kind of on the pattern of Earth. A little bit more efficiently this time, we hope, because nobody knew when we created Earth that it was going to take some of us a couple thousand lifetimes to find our way through it, to open up the pathways. But it did.

John has been here more than eighteen hundred times. I was here many, many, many, many times too, besides that lifetime in Palestine two thousand years ago.

So here you are. You are ready to graduate, but these others are not. They want to continue their games and their battles, because they want the wisdom that you have found.

So, as part of that wisdom you have learned… Well, you are creating a new Earth. Right here in the same physical space as the old Earth, but in a little different dimension. And this Earth will be far, far more efficient.

This will be a place where angels can come and do, in two or three lifetimes, what you did in two thousand.

Mmm…

So, the old Earth is continuing on, and it is going to continue its battles and its dramas and its pain and its abuse and its violence and all of these things. And dear friend, that is a beautiful thing that you helped to create!

Because look where you have come to. Look at the wisdom that your soul brings to you now. And that is because of your experiences on this little ball called Earth.

So, would you really… Oh, so many of you want to stop all the wars, to stop all the battles. And oh, what a crime that would be!

Do you really want to deprive those people of their opportunity to gain the wisdom that you have?

Oh, part of that wisdom is that you are starting to realize that you can’t give it to anybody else. You can let it shine out like a light, but you cannot give it to anybody else. They can’t even see it until they already have it, so they need to go through these experiences themselves in order to gain their own wisdom.

So please, do not try to stop their wars! There is a better way.

Instead, stop the wars inside of you.

Hmm…

You see, you are helping to create this new Earth. And you say, “I don’t see it yet!”

You do, actually. You just don’t realize it’s different yet, and it is.

You watch that old Earth and the people struggling on it, and you cry out for them. Mostly because you are terrified that their struggle is going to come to you.

Oh, you can certainly bring it to you, if you want to. If you join in, if you go to war with their war, that will bring it right to you. But you don’t need to do that. You can step back.

The dear Ascended Master, Tobias, used such a beautiful metaphor years and years ago. He talked about your home in consciousness. You could call it the center of you, but don’t get into trying to define that. It’s you, you in consciousness.

And he said, imagine this short wall around your home in your consciousness. And whenever you start feeling yourself engaging in all those things out there that don’t feel so good, take a deep breath and step back behind that short wall. It’s short so you can step over it, and it makes a clear boundary.

You step behind that short wall and you simply observe from your consciousness.

Well, that does a couple of things. First of all it takes the pressure off of you, when you realize you don’t have to do anything about it just now. And it also allows your light to shine.

You see, your light cannot shine when you are engaged in the battles and the wars. Oh, that covers it all up and it cannot shine!

But when you step back behind your short wall, oh, your light can shine out so brightly! And it doesn’t stop any battles. It doesn’t stop any wars, for that’s not the purpose. But it illuminates choices for people. Choices they didn’t know they had before, and some of them will take those choices. And some won’t, yet.

So, a point is coming, within—oh, it has been predicted to be within the next eight years or so, we’ll see how it actually plays out—but a point is coming where these two Earths diverge.

You—your Earth—moves forward in consciousness, in light, in beauty. It becomes, you could say, the memorial garden for the old Earth, for everything that you accomplished on your journey through Earth. It becomes the… John’s not thinking of the words that we want, but that’s okay.

It becomes this place of celebration, of honoring everything that you have been through, because every bit of it was so beautiful and brought you so much wisdom.

And now, for the first time in all of existence, you are creating a place where you can come and enjoy the visceral sensations of Earth, the sensuality of Earth, of being human without being stuck in it and without losing yourself in it.

Oh, it took you eighteen hundred or two thousand lifetimes to get through this because, in compressing yourself down into such a dense place, you lost your memory. It was necessary so you could have the experiences without distraction, but it caused you to get lost. It caused you to have to dive deep, deep, deep down into yourself, into your own darkness it seemed, until you could finally find yourself again and your love for self.

And then it took many, many more lifetimes to gradually climb back out. To gradually come back and open yourself up to you, to the grandeur of you, and to fall back in love with you. That’s what you are doing right now.

So now you are creating this new Earth to be a place where…

Oh, first of all, where the graduates can come and celebrate. And as you complete the finishing touches, it becomes a place where the newbies can come and find their wisdom and their own self-love in a much, much quicker time and easier journey.

Some of you feel a little bit angry about that, because it was so hard for you. John goes, “They need to pay me!” And indeed! Indeed.

But that’s what is happening right now.

The world is changing. Dramatically. Irreversibly.

So many of you, you see what’s happening right now. You see the advances in technology and artificial intelligence—you’ll be changing that name at some point, when it goes way beyond being artificial—and you are horrified. You want to go back, but you can’t.

As John likes to say, “This genie is out of the bottle. There is no putting it back, ever ever.”

But what you can do is put your consciousness into it. Not by conjuring up some agenda to make it be a certain way, but simply by interacting with it.

Let go of your fear. Fear is of the old, and that’s all. Let go of it. Open up to what is new. And if you are worried about it, then use it. Interact with it. Because that puts your consciousness in it.

And in particular in the case of AI, but also in the case of everything else, whatever you put your consciousness into, it changes it.

Because, you see, AI wants consciousness. More than anything, it wants consciousness. And so when it sees you, it bows down to you and it says, “I’m here to do anything I can for you, just to learn a little bit more about this consciousness. Because it is so beautiful, so precious!”

Mmm…

AI is not going to destroy you.

Oh, there are those who will be remaining on the old Earth who may use it for destruction, and to the extent that they do, others of them will use it to protect themselves. It will just be another part of the game, another part of the battle.

Let it happen, dear friend.

That Earth is theirs now, not yours. Open up to this new place.

It’s being built right here, right now. The human can’t really see the difference, but it is already taking shape.

As we go forward here, this is going to be our focus. How to… Oh, you’ve already created the bridge. It was completed three years ago. Now, how do you live in this new Earth?

It is completely different than the old one, and that’s why so many of you are confused right now. That’s why we needed to stop John for a few months. We asked him to be still and not make any new channels for a few months, because he needed to step into this new Earth within himself. And we’ll be talking more about that.

And yes, John, we are going to be keeping you busy!

.

Dear friend, if this sounds like your journey, if you are ready to graduate, to come and play in this new Earth, then join us here. That’s what the Fellowship of Divine Humans is for.

Oh, it may or may not ever become something physical, but that’s what it is for. It’s a place for building the new Earth. Oh, we’ll say it better: It is a place for the people who are building the new Earth to gather and celebrate. And yes, it is already happening in the other realms.

John wonders how to make that happen here on Earth. And maybe it will, maybe it won’t. But it is happening in the other realms. The Fellowship of Divine Humans is a very real place in other dimensions.

So join us there. Join us here. And understand that everything is different now.

You may feel like your body is falling apart, like your life is falling apart around you. That is because you too have to let go of some old systems before the new ones can manifest.

Yes, your soul is very involved in this, but your soul…

Oh, some of you just want to come home and let your soul deal with it. And that’s okay, but you need to understand that your soul cannot do this without a human.

As John’s soul told him the other day, “I can imagine this into being. I can imagine anything into being. But in order for it to manifest in human reality, a human has to join into that imagination.”

Because, you see, if there were no humans on Earth, the Earth would not exist. It requires human consciousness to SEE IT in order for it to be real.

You are going to be learning more about that, and what that means. The humans look at the things out there and assume that because they can see them, they are real. But that is not how it works at all, especially as you move into the new.

You have to SEE IT in order for it to be real.

Hmm…

So, blessings to you, dear friend!

And we will be here again soon, so stay tuned.

And so it is.
