That's intentional if you read the text. When you start the process, think back to AC's transcendence: as the planet moves towards consciousness, it becomes confused and destructive. That's just how it's intended to work.
Right, wasn't sure. They got so crazy I did not think I could get them back green. How long does it take of sucking it up before they become friendly again? They were a big part of my defense, aliens all over the place and miasma everywhere made it difficult for anyone else to move around my territory. I was using minimal units and keeping a big force at bay so obviously it reversed the effect when that kicked in. I will be ready for it now if I know it can pass soon.

Since you're going harmony (ergo Level 1 perk) and the hostility drops fast as is, you should be fine with just a few Ultrasonic fences. Not too hard a storm to ride out.
Here an explanation, straight from the civilopedia:
This is the special victory for Harmony. In this victory, the Harmony player triggers the merging of the consciousness of all living things with the latent sentience of the planet itself, resulting in a mass enlightenment and the end of all autonomous, individual identity. All beings are united in “planetary nirvana” to live forever in perfect harmony.
There are three steps to a Transcendence Victory: contacting the Planet’s Consciousness, creating the Mind Flower, and merging consciousness.
The first step for the Harmony player is to establish communication with the integrated consciousness of the planet. This is achieved by unlocking a series of technologies that lead to the Mind Flower wonder.
The Mind Flower is a Planetary Wonder unlocked by a late-game technology. It is buildable in any of the player’s cities.
Once a Mind Flower has been constructed, it will immediately begin a consciousness merge between the planet and the life forms that inhabit it. This takes some number of turns during which the indigenous life of the planet reacts to the process in dramatic, sometimes destructive ways.
The speed with which the Mind Flower can accomplish the victory can be enhanced by building Mind Stem and Xeno Sanctuary buildings in the player's cities. Each building built adds to the Mind Flower's completion rate.
As long as the player can protect the Mind Flower until the process is complete, the victory will be achieved.
If the Mind Flower is destroyed during the merging, the victory attempt fails. The player must construct another Mind Flower and restart the process to complete the victory
