Planetary Alignments

January 7, 2008 - Mercury | Neptune

A relatively minor influence but this alignment induced a Sunspot Count of 26 from the floor of Solar MIN. 

The Jupiter | Pluto alignment will persist for awhile but it is probably creates about a zero influence.

January 11, 2008- Mercury | Uranus

A Sunspot Peak most likely has already formed for this alignment.

February 1 to 5, 2008 - Mercury | Mars and then Mercury | Earth

Mercury will move rapidly through a series of alignments, beginning with an alignment on February 1 and then swing past Earth on February 5 on its way to Saturn a few days later. This should call forth a lot of vigor from the Sun.  A major Sunspot Peak is likely to appear during the last week of January (from about Jan. 21) and persist, with two or three peaks, for a couple of weeks. This should make for a very stormy beginning to the month of February.

February 23, 2008 - Earth | Saturn & Venus | Jupiter

This double-header is probably another potent combination.  Expect a new Sunspot Peak about February 15. The last half of February most likely will be as petulent as the first half.

April 4, 2008 - Mercury | Jupiter & Venus | Neptune

Watch out for Mercury | Venus, with a split tail between Neptune and Uranus.  This alignment may be the most potent yet so far for 2008.

Remainder of 2008 coming soon
