CRITICAL ALERTS [Earth Week Summary]

[April 21, 2008 ECB; MWM] "Current Week's Summary"

MAY 1, 2008:  National strike to demand rapid withdrawal of American troops from Iraq and the impeachment of the Cheney-Bush Junta.  Be there.

COSMIC FACTORS:  

The Sunspot Count  rose to 12 on April 14/15 in a minor spike and then dropped to zero for the week, rising again April 19/20 to 12 and 11 with a Flux at 21.  This minor rise in activity has not brought much impact on the Earth in the form of flares, auroras, and magnetic storms and none are very likely during the coming week.  A coronal hole is sending a solar wind into the Earth's atmosphere but magnetic disturbances are not evident.  Alaska's Fluxgate Monitor Graph  shows  not much.   This is not likely to change much during the next few weeks.  The Planetary A Magnetic Index (upper atmosphere field strength) rose during the week to 15 but  fell back to its low average at about  5 a few days ago.  More stormy solar weather is possible at any time but probably not very likely during the coming week.  For the next 48 hours, NASA predicts a 1%  or less probability of major explosive or flare events on the Sun with a 10% to 40% probability of major magnetic disturbances in the Earth's atmosphere in the higher latitudes.  For more details on current sun go here.   For Daily Sun, go to Spaceweather.

The planetary alignments of Mercury  and the other planets are generally widely dispersed. April's solar activity should remain low until just after the beginning of May to greet the planetary alignments on May 11.  However, the next round of planetary alignments in May will not produce as much Sunspot Activity as during March (approx. March 25).   Accordingly, is likely that the next several weeks will see a less energetic Sun and conditions will coast moderately into June to produce a more much normal  late Spring.  Watch for June 6, when Mercury | Earth with Mars still closely aligned with Saturn.  This double header likely will spritz up considerable Solar Activity about the beginning of June and this activity may be on par or even more energetic than this most recent surge of 67 Sunspots.  Then, Mercury and Jupiter align about June 17 with Earth in near alignment with both.  The middle of June should easily exceed March in overall storminess and the weather may not "normalize" until July.See Planetary Alignments for longer range forecast.  

ATMOSPHERICS:    All weather patterns are normalizing and are presently little influenced by Solar Activity.  La Nina has dissolved,  ditto the North Atlantic Oscillation.  Weather during the remainder of April should be more and more normal temperate and stormy as is typical during this time of year.  El Nino may form up during the next several months and some advancement into El Nino may have occurred during the past 14 days.  This El Nino may be longer than normal and it may be stronger than average.  In the meantime blame all the rest of "non-normal" on Global Warming.  Hurricane and tornado season is now predicted to be substantially greater than last year but that will not require much, given the collapse of Atlantic Hurricane phenomenon during 2007.  Most likely Atlantic hurricane seasons will not become record-makers again until 2010.

 GEOPHYSICAL FACTORS:    No new news on the Wobble this week as it continues to expand.   No major change from prior weeks, but there remains some apparent tendency to truncation of the spiral track on the Y Axis. Movement up and down the X Axis appears slightly easier for the Earth's crust than movement on the Y Axis.  The result is a track slightly more oblong than circular.  This pattern we have been observing since the wobble "freeze" of January 2005. See Polar Motion for additional information.  The Moon is now Full and is approaching its Apogee (this one is very modest) on April 24-26.  It will take up its Extreme Southern Declination at the same time.  Since the Lunar Cycles are "out of phase" with each other during the next couple of months, the Moon influence on quake activity is somewhat diminished.  At the current time, earthquake activity Class 4+ is a little above average in frequency and perhaps in magnitude as well.  Quake activity surged briefly April 18/19 and we are likely to see another surge in the higher magnitude quakes during the next few days.  See Lunar Schedule for more details.  For quakes go to Earthquakes. 

VERY INTERESTING PATTERNS ARE SHOWN IN TODAY'S IRIS SEISMIC MONITOR CHART.   DON'T MISS IT.

World volcanism plateaued during March and has not increased much if at all during the past week.  A surge began after the Full Moon in March but this settled down.  We are likely to see a repeat of this pattern during the next week.  Currently the Active List is at 31, the Restless List is at 3, and the Alert List rose by one over a two week period to 77.  Two new eruptions were recorded but there was very little change in most volcanoes during the past month.  Kilauea STILL remains incredibly productive of lava flowing into the ocean and sulfur dioxide emissions are a serious issue near the volcano.  Etna, an important herald, is snoozing lightly while Popo and Colima, along with most of  the regulars of last year on the Carib Plate, are just hanging in there.  Erebus, Stromboli, Yasur, and Arenal continue their long ever-lasting eruptions.  (These typically produce lava lakes, lava fountains, and strombolian explosions).  Click here for more details on this Volcano Season.   January's Volcano prediction looks pretty good:  "In accordance with past wobble cycles and the general average trend of increase in volcanic activity, I expect that volcanic activity during 2008 will be about the same as 2007 or abate by a small percentage."

GEO-ECONOMIC FLUX - -  INFLATION IS SOARING....AS PREDICTED HERE SINCE 2004. Have no doubts it will continue to soar as will the level of world rioting. Congratulations your leaders have kindly stepped up to the table of international settlements and you are now paying for the Tragedy in Iraq (and Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the Travesty in Washington DC and New York).  Vat good Germans you are. The silver lining in all this?  Iraq is bankrupting the Empire.  Oops.  All falls down.  In four to eight years the Imperial Faction will be permanently out of power in North America, sixty years of rotten politics and stinking lies will finally be lifted from the souls of the Americans.  But in the meanwhile, make sure your family is ready to ride out two to six years of hard economic times.  The slide from this point will keep on going in a downward direction.

For the latest summary of the banking crisis and the long term context, as seen by Mike Whitney, go to the Geoeconomic Update to catch his latest brilliant article. Essentially, after a lot of huffing and puffing, Whitney (a profoundly informed eco-political guru) argues that the U.S. Banks have failed, the financial sector is bankrupt, and an elaborate game of charades is now being played to pretrend that the elite can simply ignore the obvious waiting for Godot to revive the economy or for Darth Cheney to rain Star Troopers on Iran to divert attention from  the growing legions showing up to live in Tent Cities.  Since writing his article, more Banks have been added to the ignoble list of Bear Stearn. As previously stated, the next eight years will accelerate change at all levels, not least with escalating conflict and struggle between and within the power elites. The old games, the old consensus, the old economics are dying and cannot be made to work again.  The Cabal has made the critical move, long predicted by a long list of  Bears, to rescue the sinking ship with precisely the same strategy which sank the system in 1929.  Rather than risk implosion of the "bubbles" of privilege which have inflated uncontrollably during the past 25 years, the Bankster Cabal has moved to inflate the dollar rapidly with abandon.  Prime interest rates are now well below inflation rates, which few of the PTB will admit, and the rates are expected widely to be lowered again by large amounts. This will hasten the decline of the dollar against most other currencies and send inflation soaring for all commodities, most especially for oil and gas. A growing convergence of opinion is crystallizing around September/October as an extreme peak moment for the meltdown of the imperial (globalist) economy.  But this Bear position does not reckon with the obvious and inevitable counter-move which is sure to come in the Fall (AS IT ALWAYS DOES IN A MAJOR ELECTION YEAR):  a major lowering of energy costs to create the illusion of a crisis which is "passing".  As previously advised, ABOVE ALL REMEMBER ROOSEVELT'S ADVICE:  THE MAIN THING WE HAVE TO FEAR IS FEAR ITSELF.  As previously advised,  don't expect 12,000 on the DJI to hold well.  THE PANIC is ever greater and in full force and a substantial sag yet will be seen during the following days and weeks in the U.S.  The rest you already know the essence. It will be a miracle if they can hold the line at 10,000, some extreme Bears are predicting something in the range of 6000.  Cayce gave the formula for predicting what is happening some 70 years ago and once again is RIGHT ON THE MONEY. Start focusing on the real opportunities which are coming.  SOLARIZE AMERICA is the industrial redevelopment scheme for the next 30 years and it will drive a great wave of prosperity once the War On Terror Scam and the dying hands of the Globalist Cabal are removed from the backs of the North American peoples.  For additional details go to Geo-Political - Economics.  

GEOPOLITICAL FLUX - -  AS PREDICTED PREVIOUSLY - WAR RISK IS HIGH AND RISING.  The assessment below stands. KEEP PARAMOUNT IN MIND THAT THE FAILURE OF THE COWARDLY LIONS, AKA THE OIL-SOAKED DEMOCRATS, TO CONFRONT DARTH CHENEY AND REQUIRE AN END TO THE BRUTAL U.S. OPPRESSION IN IRAQ WILL BE, I REPEAT, WILL BE CITED IN THE ANNALS OF HISTORY AS ONE OF THE PRIMARY FACTORS WHICH EMBOLDENED THE CHENEY/CIA/MOSSAD CLIQUES TO PRECIPITATE ANOTHER ROUND OF MILITARY ADVENTURISM AND WAR CRIMES IN THE MIDDLE EAST. It is fully the equivalent of Chamberlain's craven cave-in to Hitler, from which World War II began.   The likely nomination of Obama may be the primary factor which is pushing the Imperial Faction into increasing the destablization of the Middle East at this time - they are going to "do" what they can while the "doing" is good.  The only thing we do not know at this time is the principle target, the actual strategy plan. Don't expect that anybody on the outside has "guessed" what they intend to do.  Supplement the standing assessment below with the latest assessment from:

Paul Craig Roberts: "Petraeus Testimoney Will Signal Attack On Iran"

STANDING ASSESSMENT:  Strategic plans and manipulations are obviously underway to push the envelope on existing conditions. The recent trips by Cheney and Bush-McCain to the Middle East, along with military redeployments, suggest strongly that the Imperial Faction is arranging the stage of history for the next act. The risk of another major False Flag Terrorism incident may be building rapidly.  Some project as early as May 2008, some are more inclined to posit the early Fall, in time to sway the U.S. elections for the "Return of the Gipper" John McCain.  The recent sacking of Admiral Fallon as Supreme U.S. Commander In the Middle East, who is widely known for his belief that increased military activity is not appropriate for U.S. national interests, is the most obvious tip-off.  Many scenarios are possible, but a contrived false flag operation against Israel may be the preferred operation.  Such an operation is far less likely to be scrutinized by hostile eyes because it will be too far removed.  Israel could then rationalize a national war response, recycling all the Bush rhetorical garbage, engage in strikes against its next target (likely the brutalization of Syria), and thus force the hands of all parties into a series of responses which escalate into U.S. and Iranian intervention and mutual war.  THUS THERE IS  A RISK OF FALSE-FLAG TERRORIST OPERATIONS INSTIGATED BY RIGHT-WING THUG ELEMENTS IN THE CIA, MOSSAD, MK5, AND ALLIED MOBS WORKING AS AGENTS FOR AN INTERNATIONAL CABAL composed of Anglo-American-Jewish elements through to Spring, possibly October 2008.

SPIRITUAL FLUX  - -  As previously reported, the power of the Blue Star Kachina continues to grow as a major ingress of higher plane energy expands for those seeking it.  Look for a small blue diamond in the inner most recesses of your mind's eye.  Reach deeply inside your experience of the now.  Seek for the "feeling" of an energy or vibration within your head.  REMEMBER REMEMBER REMEMBER.  Awaken to the higher energy.  Now is truly the time to build an internal link to consciousness of this energy.  As this link strengthens, the internal power of lucid peace will grow, hopefully strongly enough to surmount the highly charged emotional astral chaos of the next Solar MAX, which most likely will be the most chaotic period of human existence in several decades, quite possibly for several centuries.

 HOUSEKEEPING ANNOUNCEMENT:  

Domain names have been added to michaelmandeville.com.   The structure and links of the EC Bulletin and everything under the Earthchanges now operate under www.EarthChanges-Bulletin.com.  MichaelMandeville.com, as personal website, and MetaSynMedia.com as a commercial website, now also operate side by side.  By refocusing all the material into different focal areas and linkages structures, everything is becoming better organized and easier for both the reader and the author to use.  Most of the progress so far is in the michaelmandeville and metasynmedia web domains.  Phoenix Quest is hopefully next.  

The Changes In The Earth - Global Summary

A RECENT CHART DEFINES "THE CHANGE IN THE EARTH". Click to see the threefold trend in world quake activity 4+ for 1973-2007. This increase in seismic energy is signaling all the other Changes In The Earth, including Global Warming.  Daily average frequency of 4+ quakes has risen from 11 in 1973 to about 35 in 2007.  The average rose dramatically during 2005/06 and is currently lower.  The daily average for 2007 will probably rise a little by the end of the year and may rise more slowly during the next few years.  Statistics are tricky master illusionists so be careful with this following thought:  an exponential growth curve can be drawn through earthquake data 4+ to project another DOUBLING of the current frequency by about 2020.
