Doing some quick reading it seems that the "safe mode" boot has this effect.
The Raspberry Pi will boot into "safe mode" if pns 5 and 6 on the GPIO header are connected together,
See this page for a picture: http://elinux.org/RPI_safe_mode
I would try unplugging things one at a time until the Raspberry Pi boots up correctly to see if I can find out which is causing the problem.
Since the problem is recent I would start with things you have connected recently.
This could be a simple case of connecting a device / cables backwards, or it may be soething has a problem.

It could be GPIO related
