Thanks Darrell.
According to Fr Malachi Martin who had read the Third Secret of Fatima the Secret is embedded in the Holy Virgins formal Messages delivered to the seers at Garabandal. Extract from Fr Martins interview with Art Bell:
Quote:
"..in 1961 there was a second appearance, this time in Spain, in Garabandal. And the opening words of that revelation were: 'Because my sons have not listened to my orders, my mandate, here is what is going to happen...' and the message was very dire, a repetition of the Third Secret in brief form...."
End Quote.

I've studied Garabandal and the evidence convinces me that it has a preternatural origin, i.e. from the devil, who can cause what looks like miracles but are just false manifestations of the supernatural, such as manipulating the laws of physics ,as when the girls walk backwards over stones and stuff.

Anyway we have enough approved private revelations that we don't need to take the risk of believing in and promoting unapproved ones. Fatima is what needs to be promoted. Another thing, why would none of the girls enter religious life, and why would Joey L die still blind, and then there are the words about Paul VI being a good pope (he was a NWO Globalist asset and an unchaste homosexual: More evidence that Giovanni Battista Montini, the future Paul VI, was homosexual @ TraditionInAction.org
(and 2 other short related articles there) ) and JP II was supposed to be the last pope if the messages were correct. We must be very cautious and discerning. Jesus said even the elect would be deceived in the last days. Look at the harm Medjugorje has caused. Did you ever see E Michael Jones on youtube about that, or his book, The Medjugorje Deception: Queen of Peace, Ethnic Cleansing, Ruined Lives?

Fatima is of utmost importance, so important in fact that the enemy colonizers of the Vatican "disappeared" Sr Lucia and replaced her with an impostor, now proven with absolute certainty, as sisterlucytruth.org details. Sr Lucia had to go (probably murdered) since the Fatima Message needed to be distorted and a false "Third Secret" revealed to the world in 2000. The real Secret, from what we know from Pius XII's 1957 reading of it (which hardly anyone knows about), as well as what Ratzinger apparently told a close priest friend, has to do with a false Vatican II Council and the almost universal loss of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Besides the link above, and the interviews at its channel (where you'll hear about the dark side of the double agent Malachi Martin in the service of the enemies of Christ, esp. toward the end of parts 2 and 3, see Cardinal Ratzinger: We Have Not Published the Whole Third Secret of Fatima - OnePeterFive

St John of the Cross wrote: "The devil rejoices when people seek private revelations."

I've studied it too for over 40 years and have a different opinion. Time will tell who is correct. Until then I respectfully suggest you Live the Messages which have ecclesiastical approval:
Statement by Bishop Aldazabal of Santander (Spain) who, in a nota dated July 8, 1965, had to admit:

"We would like to say, however, that we have found no grounds for an ecclesiastical condemnation, either in the doctrine or in the spiritual recommendations that have been divulged in the events and addressed to the Christian faithful; furthermore, these recommendations contain exhortations to prayer, sacrifice, devotion to the Holy Eucharist, and devotion to the Blessed Virgin under traditional praiseworthy forms; these are also exhortations to a holy fear of the Lord, offended by our sins..."

You would have a hard time convincing me the Bishops declaration was conceived under demonic influence.
