EARTH CHANGES BULLETIN Weekly Update


A great many elements of the Anglo-American establishment are now clearly warning the American people that the Cheney/Bush Junta is out-of-control and is a clear and present danger to the world.  Russia's President Putin is now warning the entire world that the escalation of the military occupation in Iraq is a fatal mistake and that the Cheney/Bush Junta will end up destroying America if it endeavors to expand its demented war plans against Iran.  Inside Washington DC, intelligence "flies on the walls" of the corridors of war and peace are telling Seymour Hersh, one of leading journalists of this time whose expertise spans the entire cold war from Vietnam to Iraqnam, that THE WAR PLAN IS ALREADY SET.

The 911 Deception, an article by MW Mandeville, appears in the December-January copy of Nexus Magazine.

CRITICAL ALERTS

(July 2, 2007 ECB; MWM) 

 

STILL PLAYING AT THE SKYVIEW DRIVE-IN off Horizon Blvd: Venus and Saturn are very close to each other tonight, both visible in the sunset sky in the gathering dusk.  Jupiter shines brightly on the eastern half of the sky.  This conjuction of Venus and Saturn gets closer and by the end of June the two planets will shine nearly within half a degree of each other.  Use the light as your guide, all three are brighter than almost all the other stars out there so by their brightness you can easily pick them out.  Make some special tea, ice it, and drink to this natural phenomenon as you tune into closer experience of the actual flow of cosmic events.

 

TWO NEW GREATLY REVEALING GRAPHS TO LOOK AT:

 

See Earthquakes In Eurasia

See Earthquakes in the North Atlantic
 

COSMIC FACTORS:  Sunspots were at zero the previous week and the Flux dropped to 65, the lowest Flux in several years.  But as hinted here last week, another minor peak formed up. Currently the planets are now drawing apart for the most part and thus Solar Activity in general should decrease during the next two weeks, perhaps stirring again to life around July 14 in time for the next alignment of Mercury with Mars. In the meantime, no serious magnetic disturbances are in the solar wind and upper atmosphere this day and NASA predicts uneventful solar sailing during the next few days. What ever we are experiencing this July is primarily "Global Warming" and extra-dimensional, it has little to do with the Sun or its various cycles.  La Nina in the Pacific held up and in fact may be growing again. In fact the entire Eastern Pacific is cooling noticably, leaving only a small patch west of the Yucatan area and another warm "track" adjacent to the Pacific Northwest.  Northern Chaos is still on track and these are the two tracks.  San Francisco to Seattle will host a wet summer provided by an Hawaian PIneapple Express, Alaska will dry up, Southern California will dry up and blow into the East, and the rest of the play will be managed by the Atlantic air mass movements.  Expect the Jet Stream to be highly variable, riding atypically to the south.  Many great floods in the Plains and Mountain states are possible.  Near hurricane strength winds possible in Northern Mexico, New Mexico, Arizona.  These may blow in the wet remnants of both Carib and Pacific tropical storm fronts.

AS ADVISED LAST WEEK:   At the same time the "North Atlantic Oscillation" is maintaining considerably higher than normal temperatures off Newfoundland, once again, and also in a broad sweep across the Atlantic into the Gulf and Carib Basins, with a strong mirror of warmer than normal water on the Pacific side of the Yucatan.  This may "funnel" this year's strong hurricane season into Mexico and Central America, and these storm fronts may over-ride the La Nina Pacific and feed large amounts of "reverse flow" moisture into Texas, New Mexico, and even Arizona.  So WATCH OUT for NORTHERN CHAOS  this Summer.  All in all, MORE THAN EVER, this looks like a year of somewhat fast-paced cosmic chaos, making all results very difficult to predict.  Already there are good indicators of vicious hurricanes soon to come this year and if sea surface temperature trends hold, the hurricanes and tropical storms likely will tend to strike the lower Caribbean and the Yucatan region of Central America more than the Gulf States and the Atlantic Seaboard. 

GEOPHYSICAL FACTORS:  Polar Motion - the wobble spiral track continues to expand as it should.  Seismic activity 4+ is running about normal and nothing dramatic is apparent.    We are in Full Moon at near extreme declination in the South (erroneously called the North in last week's update), though both are out of phase with a small Perigee which will follow on July 9, suggesting a lack luster syzygy for earthquakes.  

 

 Meanwhile volcanic activity is simmering about the same as last week with 33 volcanoes still on the active list.  Many ash emissions  continue along with some lava extrusion.  But our herald in the Pacific, Kilauea, has, like Soufriere Hills and Etna suspended its active lava flow.  We have probably passed the high water mark for volcanism in 2007. 

SPIRITUAL FLUX  -   FIRE IS COMING IN THE GRID JULY 17 2007

Let's do it:  http://www.firethegrid.com/  In the meantime, the Warcast Media will work assiduously at shilling the expansion of militarism in the Middle East.  The Imperial Faction is not noticing that no one is paying any attention to their vain efforts...the flood of deceptions, denials, and rationalizations which continue to pour out are simply draining away into the sand of time. Truly, the incubus of imperial ambition is dissolving everywhere even in this moment of its highest elevation, even as it crows about its apparent dominion over the world, the world turns away.  

GEOPOLITICAL FLUX:   

CONCERNING THE BRITISH TERROR ALERTS AND OTHER RUMORS OF BOOGIE-IRAN:   No one but no one has any inkling left that any of these people who shout  and shill about the Boogieman of Terror have any remaining credibility or moral legitimacy...  The Anglo-American regimes have completely lost it in the thickets of lies which has grown up during the past eight years...indeed a great many people around the world now openly discuss what to do about  the terrorist regimes which control the U.S. and Britain.

STANDING REAL TERROR ALERT:  Meanwhile in the U.S., political fractionalization is increasing and an exceptional breakdown of the two party electoral system is already well underway.   The Imperial Faction will drive the degeneration, inadvertently, by forcing increased synthetic terror in various forms and by playing out a serious covert campaign to incite a war with Iran.  It is the last strategic piece which extreme Zionazi's want to suck out of the of the dying Bush regime.  It is not likely they can do so without creating extreme controversy and agitation in the U.S., BUT IT IS NOW OVERWHELMINGLY OBVIOUS THAT THEY INTEND TO TRY.  A very sick core of manipulators fully intend to trash out the remaining vestiges of constitutional rule in the U.S. by using international violence and Zionazi "emergencies" to diktat the rise of a Globalist Aristocracy, cloaked in "corporatism", to rule over much of the world.  Iran is now the emerging foil by which they intend to induce the "emergencies" to complete the militarization of the U.S.

GEO-ECONOMIC FLUX: No change.....Eurasia up, Latin America  up, U.S./Mexico down.

 

CHECK OUT THIS INTERESTING GRAPH OF EARTH CYCLE CORRELATIONS:

This graph of earthquake activity in Eurasia is only one among dozens of graphs I am working on which detail how the Earth really works tectonically.  It demonstrates how deep you have to dig to get to the basics.  Only partially complete, this graph at the moment displays only 2.0-2.99 quakes on Eurasia, from Spain and Norway to most of Siberia and down into India and SE Asia to encompass the entire Mideast and Saharan Africa as well  Excluded is Japan and Eastern Siberia.   Many zones and some sizes of earthquakes do not show a correlation worth talking about with orbital factors, which keeps the entire topic somewhat confusing.  But in this graph of the regular daily small grinders, you can see a very close parallel with the average declination angle of the Moon's orbit (how far it goes in any given year to the north and south of the Equator) up until 2004.  Then the level of quake activity in this category falls off (it increases in the larger magnitudes).  Look at the BLACK LINE and the BLUE LINE and see how they parallel their trend.  Observe how the lowest total for average daily quakes corresponds dead on with the lowest lunar declination angle in 1987.  Observe as well that the Seven Year Wobble Cycle is clearly "reflected" in frequency of change in the up and down waveform of average daily quakes, but the "alignment" or "phasing" of the two activities is partially offset, leaving us to "guess" crudely at what is coming next.  Observe also that in the small quakes (this chart shows only 2.0 to 2.99 quakes) THERE IS NO TREND.  However, for quakes above 4.0, Eurasia shows a very strong trend of increase.  This chart I will show you very soon.

 

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS:

A major collection of graphs, charts, and links to information and databases is nearing collection. It more or less represents my  collected "notes" and analysis of Earth Changes (including Global Warming and climate change phenomenon) for completion of a new verification of Edgar Cayce's Earth Change Prophecies and analysis of how the "shifting of the poles" is likely to take place.  This has taken enormously more time than I originally anticipated for the revision of the Trilogy (like over an extra year) because of the explosion of research data about the Earth which the Global Warming scare has "induced" through liberal funding.  These "notes" would take hundreds of pages to publish, hence very little of it will appear in the final book of the Trilogy.  The resulting verification will be many more times powerful and thorough than the work in the first edition of the Trilogy.  Based on the new material I can provide a disciplined set of exact criteria and time windows for the lead-in phases, crescendo peak, and down-slope of the Event Horizon of the Fifth Phoenix (we are in it now and we have **perhaps** another 20 years before we hit the other side) .   Some of the background material will appear in a follow-on book which is titled "The Nine Trends Which Are Changing The Earth".  Because my collection is so powerful in demonstrating a completely new perspective about the Earth and its history, all of it will be made to appear on the web or on CD for subscribers during the following months, to be known as "The Earth Changes Gallery".  The Gallery will never be complete in the sense that this will become a growing collection.  The existing collection still requires more organization and editing of the explanations and concluding points, perhaps another three weeks of work.  At the moment I am completing one of the major "floors" in the Gallery - the "Solar Activity Cycle" and how it does and does not connect with the major trends.  Check out these two charts in which everything comes together and the logic of my arguments  "turn" with the changes in the "trends".

 

Correlation of Solar Activity Cycle With XY Plots of the Earth's Wobble 1890-2006.  When it loads, click on the image to make your browser enlarge it to the correct giant size. Scroll across it.  Notice Sunspot Cycle 19.  What happens thereafter to the Earth's Wobble which is distinctly new?  Why has nobody put this together yet?  This is one of a dozen profound connections I have made in the past few months. Notice the date of Sunspot Cycle 19 MAX.  Where else have you seen this date?  Ah yes, Edgar Cayce....in 1934 or 36 describing the advent of Major Activities in the Earth Changes --- 1958!

Correlation of Solar Activity, World Termperature Trend, and Heat Gain Trend In The World Ocean 1867-2004 This is deliberately small so you stare with a 150 year vision all at once.  Ask yourself, what connects with what?  What REALLY connects with what?  Then connect the critical transition dates with the first chart which has the XY plots in it.  Then, if you are familiar with the graphs on world volcanism which I have produced, you will realize that WHILE the XY Plots "separate" in the graph, world volcanism and earthquake activity trend lines begin to accelerate manyfold, the oceans warm, and Global Warming becomes the fourth place topic on the news (after war and corruption and sex).

 

I have DOZENS  of supporting graphs which I have collected from other researchers which prove the reality of these "connections".  Many of these will be posted within the next couple of months.

You should see what I can do with the Phoenix 4 Event Horizon 12,500 Before Present.  The Global Warming paleo researchers are not proving up their favorite theories about CO2 but you should see what they are doing proving up Edgar Cayce's comments about the past.

The Prophecies, Book Three: 

on the lead-in for this Update

 

  1. The revised Prophecies book is still several weeks away.

  2. As already discussed I am paralleling a fourth book to work tightly in tandem with the revised Prophecies book.  The working title of this fourth book is:  "The Nine Trends Changing The Earth 1875-2025" - How Global Warming Is Caused By Underwater Volcanism & Why Greenhouse Gas Is Just Hot Air.  A review draft of nearly four chapters is available for paid subscribers with password at http://www.michaelmandeville.com/ebooks/ebookaccess.htm

  3. About 15 pages of this material, plus a couple of graphs, will be condensed into Book Three of the Trilogy to present a summary but complete logical argument to finish the verification of Edgar Cayce's long range prophecies.  The few left outstanding will not be verified until the other side of the Phoenix Singularity, which is called Phoenix 5 in the Prophecies and in the Earth Changes Bulletin.  As you should know by now, the Earth Changes Bulletin is monitoring the Earth's progression into chaotic motion and crustal breakup on the way towards an "avalanche of the crust" over the spin axis.

  4. It remains that all those who subscribed  with donations beginning in September 2005 in order to have access to the Phoenix books will have their subscriptions renewed at no charge to run through June 2007.   I may extend this further. This will give you plenty of time to download the finished Trilogy ebooks, the final set of which will be made available some time in January.  You will also get a fourth book, free, which will be a world class document, highly controversial.

THE WAR PLAN

"...in recent months, the former intelligence official told me, a special planning group has been established in the offices of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, charged with creating a contingency bombing plan for Iran that can be implemented, upon orders from the President, within twenty-four hours..."

"the current contingency plans allow for an attack order this spring..."

Seymour Hersh, in the "The New Yorker" Magazine, Posted February 26, 2007 for the March 5, 2007 Issue. Article citation: "The Redirection: Is the Administration’s new policy benefitting our enemies in the war on terrorism?"

MWM: Such a plan is not a contingency plan.  It is a war plan.


MWM:  MOST LIKELY THE COOKY WING OF THE CABAL IS NOW BLOCKED FROM BROADENING THE WAR INTO IRAN.  BUSH IS A DESTROYED PRESIDENT WHO NO LONG COMMANDS SUFFICIENT CREDIBILITY TO SUCCESSFULLY CONDUCT WAR EXPANSION. THE MAIN THREAT OF WAR FOR THE REMAINDER OF 2007 IS A FALSE-FLAG OPERATION CONTRIVED BY THE MOSSAD TO WHICH ISRAEL RESPONDS DIRECTLY WITH A BOMBING ATTACK ON IRAN.

Visible Sun Of July 2, 2007:

[7-2-07 ECB]  Solar Activity rose from ZIP during the past seven days to a high of 36 on June 30 and then sagged July 1 to 30. A low  Flux at 67 as of June 24 rose to 74 on June 29 and held in there at 73 on July 1.  As suggested last week, this peak was modest and quickly dissipated.  Since the planets are now drawing apart, solar tension should be dropping and thus Sunspot Activity should be minimal during the next two weeks. About the 14th, however, this will begin to change.

[7-2-07 ECB]  NASA reports no significant sunspots on the farside.  [Holographic image credit: SOHO/MDI] 

[7-2-07 ECB] Quick Solar Activity Forecast From Planetary Alignments:  We are in the middle of a complex set of rapidly changing planetary alignments involving Mercury which will persist through the first few days in July..  It is very difficult to predict anything from this pattern.   Expect nothing, be not surprised by anything.

[5-21-07 ECB] Passage To Solar Cycle 24:   We may pass into Solar Cycle 24 at practically any time during 2007, though we may not know it completely officially until six months after the fact. (The MINIMA is calculated as a running 12 month average and so our definition of the event always lags for several months until the numbers work themselves out. Note to astrophysicists: we need a better method of calculation which can spot the passage within 90 days).

 

Pix of coronal holes[7-2-07 ECB]   NASA reports no significant coronal hole.  NASA predicts a 1% to 1% probability of solar flares (X to M, respectively) during the next 48 hours.  NASA predicts there is a 1% to 20% probability of major magnetic disturbances in the high latitudes during the next 48 hours. Pix Credit: NOAA GOES-13.  

 

[6-4-07 ECB] Average Solar Counts for January - April 2007:  Flux:  83 in January, 77 in February, 72 in April, 74.4 in May.   Spots: ISSN - 16.9 in January, 10.6 in February,  4.8 for March, 3.7 in April, 11.7 in May, a little above the prediction  THE MARCH AND APRIL AVERAGES WERE SEVERAL POINTS  BELOW NASA'S PREDICTED LEVEL, MAY SLIGHTLY ABOVE.  Solar Sunspot Cycle 23 may be mostly gone but it looks like Sunspot Cycle 24, as predicted by the European scientific consortium (Belgium) is not likely to happen until latter in the year, perhaps not until early 2008.

 

 

Magnetic Disturbances: (As Shown By Fluxgate Monitor at the University of Alaska )

[7-2-07 ECB]  Fluxgate Monitor is showing almost no magnetic activity in the upper atmosphere.  Activity may be fairly uneventful through the remainder of this year however keep in mind that even during a Solar Min period, intense X class flares and CME's occasionally occur.

Solar Cycle 24 Predictions: 

[4-30-07 ECB]  Another round of predictions for Solar Cycle 24 is now being tendered through NASA and other sources.  Using more traditional statistical methods, dates for the beginning of the next cycle have been pushed back to Spring 2008. We now have predicted dates ranging from NOW through to April/May 2008.   

[2-12-07 ECB] There are now three major focal points for predictions of the beginning of Cycle 24.  One cluster is for March 2007.  Another is for Fall 2007, which is probably NASA/NOAA's most prevalent opinion.  A third is January 2008.  I personally lean toward January 2008, which is the official prediction of the EU's apparently most prominent solar group. 

[3-26-07 ECB] Conservative predictions shown in red by Hathaway, NASA/NOAA, 2007, uses an older statistically-based model. Other predictions using Solar Dynamic Models indicate a higher peak for Cycle 24. Cycle 25 "seems" too low in this chart when compared to the past nine Activity Cycles

The Phoenix Five Revised Scenario will be based on the following logic:

These projected Solar Activity Cycles are of immense importance because of the impact of Cycle 19 on the shifting of the Spin Axis in 1958.  Cycle 24 may be as large as Cycle 19 and this may bring enough new shifting and tectonic motion in the Earth's crust to initiate major tectonic ruptures around the Pacific Rim.  From now through to the MAX of Cycle 24, increasing break up in the crust may be evident through a variety of increased tectonic activities.  During the MAX years of 2011-2014, the ruptures may begin the long predicted destructions in the Western U.S.  The final breakup of the crust may occur during the MAX period of Cycle 25, which is not likely to be so small as shown here.  In all cases we will be watching the Great Rift for the auguries.  Always, the windows of greatest danger will be the combination of the "whammies", New Moon or Full Moon, Perigee, Perihelion, Mercury aligned with another inner planet or even Jupiter, during the peak years of the Solar Cycle.  Add as well the Eclipse Nodal Cycle (18 years) to find the extremes in the Lunar Sygygy, the next of which occurs in 2022.   It is the splitting of the Great Rift which is the key to the entire Earth Changes phenomenon, including the current waves of Global Warming and acidification of the oceans.  The Wobble pumps the Great Rift and the Great Rift spreads the tectonic plates and forces the motions which cause them to buckle and grind against each other... and every once in a very great while the tectonic plates avalanche together en masse to redistribute their mass to achieve a better condition of balance in the spinning vortices of the Earth-Moon-Sun System.

 

SOLAR OUTPUT 1975-2005

This chart of the last three Solar Cycles is profoundly important for many reasons.  First, it demonstrates that scientists have learned in just the last 30 years that gross solar output is almost precisely parallel with the output of Sunspots. In other words, the Sunspot Cycle is actually the Solar Activity Cycle.  Secondly the chart demonstrates that Sunspot numbers define the amount of actual irradiance (also called luminescence) which strikes the top of the Earth's atmosphere. This measure in turn is telling us how much "heat" energy is being delivered to the Earth.  As we can see, the total energy has been declining in average since 1975.  With less primary heat, there is also less "reflected" or "green-housed" heat. To make a long story short, this chart demonstrates that neither the Sun, nor all its cycles, nor all the Greenhouse Gases, nor all the inflated academic claims concerning them, have much to do with the obvious warming of the Earth.  Ignorance is a wonderful thing.  It frees the mind to seek the right answers.  Go seek, find the real cause of Global Warming.

PLANETARY ACTIVITY: Skywatching, Planet Alignments, Moon, Asteroids

 The Inner Four Planets set inside the ring of the asteroid belt and the orbit of Jupiter. Each point of light is an actual representation of a planet, asteroid, or comet (plus the Sun of course), set within a true scale of distance as of April 1.   The positions of all numbered asteroids and all numbered comets in JPL's small-body database are shown (as of April 1, 2007 ).  Asteroids are yellow dots, comets are the pale blurry smudges.  We are looking down on the Solar System, overlooking the "North Pole" of the Earth.  As can be seen, our Solar System is a pretty busy place.

ALL THIS WEEK !!!

GET OUT AND WATCH THE SUNSET

(just turn off the Warcast Media & go catch the real cosmic drift).

 

VENUS:  Still a great and bright first star you see every nite in its annual appearance as the Evening Star. Look for Jupiter on the other end of the sky (on the eastern horizon).  Both of these two planets are very bright at this time and appear very early in the Sunset.  The half-moon will be nearly half way between them.  THEN, CHECK OUT THE BRIGHTEST STAR NEXT TO VENUS.  That is not a star, it is the planet Saturn, who are in what earth-centric perspectives call a conjunction.

 Then check out directly overhead at the top of  the vault of the heavens, just a little to the off-center to the South.  At nearly that point is Arcturus, an enormously huge star (100 times the size of our Sol) which outshines everything else up there in that portion of the sky.  Cayce predicts that we will discover that our sun is revolving around Arcturus as part of a complex system of many stars.  Notice, if you can see the stars clearly enough, the relationships of Arcturus with the Milky Way (Nun), with the Great Bull (the cow which jumped over the Moon), and with the zodiac path of Venus and Jupiter, which are roughly on the Earth's "Celestial Equator" (which is the Earth's Equator extended out into the Universe).

 

NIGHT SKY FOR July 2, 2007:  Click for full screen sky map

IMAGE PRODUCED BY MICA, software & data from the JPL & U.S. Naval Observatory

If you want to learn how to follow the stars at night and get deeper into the cosmic scene of the planetary alignments, how the solar system actually works, and so forth, start using this.  It is centered for 5 AM Greenwich Tuesdays (the map is changed for each weekly update) for Arizona Mountain Time (no daylight savings) at 2000 meter elevation on approximately Black Mesa, Hopi Land.  This projection is produced by U.S. Navy Observatory MICA software and Ephemeris (Ephemeris is maintained on line by JPL).  It is more or less the world standard of algorithms for precisely tracking the cosmos and the software is such a snap to use to create powerful results, I cannot resist using it.  With this you can stand on the bridge of a vessel at sea and navigate like they used to do (but no longer, its all satellite positioning now, but old habits die not at all in the navies of the world).  Hopi Land was selected as the focal point because this provides the same approximate night sky to New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, and California (with a little time delay).  Sorry, you folks in the Pacific Northwest will not be able to use this very well, you need your own projection. As a rough and ready make-do, just face the South and look for the relevant items about 10 to 20 degrees lower than indicated in the chart.  Like California, expect events in the chart to be one hour earlier than your time.

PLANET ALIGNMENTS:

ALMANAC  |  BACKGROUND  |  EARTHMONITOR LINKS  |  LATEST

 

[5-07-07 ECB] Welcome to Solar Minima, which is the point when one Sunspot Cycle ends and another begins during a month when very little sunspot activity will be recorded.  We won't know the official "point" of the transition for many more months yet, perhaps not even until near the end of 2008, but frankly it sure feels like 2007 is the transition year.

 

SOLAR FORECAST:

[5-21-07 ECB]   June will have several episodes of modest planetary alignments.  They begin with an Earth | Jupiter Alignment on June 1 which is closely coupled with an alignment between Mercury and Venus.  The inner planets will remain closely coupled with each other and with Jupiter for a few weeks, not really completely breaking apart until July.  All this should produce a responses in the Sun with several modest peaks of Sunspot activity and many waves of stormy summer weather flowing unto the continents, beginning the beginning of June and extending through to the middle of August, when planetary induced solar influences will disappear for a few weeks.  Except for the June 1 double-header alignment, these peaks in activity should be mild compared to years past.  If this were a Solar MAX period, Sunspot Counts could easily soar to past 400 during this alignment.  But during this MIN phase, they are likely to remain under 50.

The height of the hurricane season of 2007 may emerge about September 10 in connection with the alignment of Mercury | Jupiter on September 18.  This season may extend through to the end of October while Mercury completes another series of fast moving alignments with the inner planets and two more of the outer planets.  

MORE OR LESS AS PREDICTED, February and March were extremely stormy months in North America and in many other parts of the Earth, this coming on top of an intensely cold January during which the Artic was freer of ice than it has been in at least several generations.  Welcome to Global Warming Syndrome, which is produced by the warming of the Artic ocean, not the atmosphere. 

These alignment points for the planets doubtless  will influence the Earth's weather patterns to some extent, but if the pattern of the past 90 days holds, this influence will be small compared to previous years. Keep in mind that over-all, weather patterns should be about the same as last year or reduced in strength a little if the only factor is the Sun.  However, Global Warming is providing enough votive force to surpass the influence of the Sun.  

Sunspot and solar activity should peak generally 8 to 3 days in advance of these alignment dates but keep in mind that some times the solar peak comes in on the day or the day after the alignment.

 

 

June 15, 2007 Five And A Half  PLANETARY ALIGNMENTS

Mercury, still very close to Venus,  now moves into a close threeway alignment with Jupiter and Earth.  Mercury is about as close to the Earth as it can come obitally, pulled out into its Aphelion no doubt by the combination of Jupiter and Earth and Venus.   Meanwhile Mars | Uranus.  All this ought to produce a greater round of sparks than May's planetary alignments.  Expect solar activity to begin to pick up by about June 7 and persist modestly with a few peaks in the 15-50 range through to nearly the end of June.

June 25, 2007 Five And A Half  PLANETARY ALIGNMENTS Still Strong

The three inner planets are still very close to each other, all pulling on Mercury with Pluto near the end of the four-way close alignment.   THIS COULD PRODUCE SOME HIGH ENERGY RESULTS

July 4, 2007 Venus | Jupiter PLANETARY ALIGNMENT

This should bring in another modest rise in solar activity, no doubt more modest than the activity brought by Mercury's passage.  This activity should be seen in a narrow peak during the last few days of June.  This may give rise to greater energy for the marine air masses which flow onto the continents to feed summer fog banks and storm fronts.  There may be enough stimulation in the storm fronts from this and June's Solar Activity to cast rain clouds over the July 4th Holiday in many areas.

This is a highly focused alignment with Mercury on the other side of the Sun in nearly perfect opposition.  This may produce a brief flurry of Sunspots, perhaps a count as high as 35

HURRICANE SEASON SUNSPOT ALIGNMENTS:  The next most interesting moment in the planetary alignments will come a month later near September 18 when Mercury moves into alignment with Jupiter. This pass of Mercury will be posted in a few weeks.  Thus from about September 12, we may see the beginning of the height of the Hurricane Season and it may persist for a couple of months while Mercury passes by in alignments once again with all the inner planets along with Neptune and Uranus.

 

December 22 , 2007 Six Bodies In A Straight
Mars | Earth | Sun | Mercury | Jupiter | Pluto

There are significant alignments in September, October, and November but the charts have not been added yet. A spectacular "bunching" of the inner planets will be seen as "morning stars" during early November, Mercury, Mars, and Venus should all be viewable together at dawn in a very rare conjunction.  I am guessing that this confabulation of the inner planets will mark the beginning of Solar Cycle 24.

Most important for Solar Activity is the six-way alignment in December on the Solstice.  This next chart is added because it far outclasses all else during 2007.  On about December 18/19, five planets will align in a straight line with the Sun.  Earth and Mars will align on the top of the chart, while  Mercury, Jupiter, and Pluto align on the almost exact opposite side of the Sun. Off to one side, Venus will align with Saturn.  On December 22, Earth's Moon will be Perigee at the peak of its North Node and on December 24, the Moon will be Full.  Talk about a syzygy window!!!

[7-2-07 ECB]   We are now at the peak of the Full Moon in very nearly its most extreme South Declination.  (the graph is confusing, I got the description wrong last week). A small Perigee will follow in about seven seven days.  This gives us I suppose nearly a full week of "syzygy" but I suspect it will be a weak seismic period rather than an active one.

STANDING PREDICTION:  In general, I believe that the danger of major quakes in North America is actually receding at this time.  Heightened danger zones will not return until the Fall.
