"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed and hence clamorous to be led to safety by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary."

~H.L. Mencken (famous essayist of the 20th century)

[January 12, 2009 ECB; MWM] "Current Week's Summary"

UPDATE TO OVER-RIDING CONDITIONS

The Latest Hobgoblin:  The Palestinians Who Tolerate Hamas Who Tolerate Extremists Who Fire Rockets Sporadically And Without Much Result - the terrorist regime of Zionazi Israel is using this pretext (which is largely instigated and fabricated by Israeli jackboots) to engage in the latest chapter of pogroms of violence against people which exceeds any pogroms by any other people.  Zionocrazy Jews in Israel are putting even World War II Nazi and Russian ruthlessness to shame - now nearly a 1000 dead in one week - several thousand people injured, 500 critically, no food, no water, no sanitation for 1.5 million people (who are a good portion of the remnant of a population which owned the land of Palestine which has been systematically looted from them).

COSMIC FACTORS:  

Sunspot Count -  The Sun responded to the alignment of Mercury | Venus the past three days with a three day rise in the Sunspot Count to 20 January 11 on a falling flux of 70.    There is a coronal hole in the Northwestern Hemisphere of the Sun's atmosphere and Alvestad/NASA predict solar wind from it will strike the Earth about January 14 to 18.  The Planetary A Magnetic Index (upper atmosphere field strength) has fluctuated in the range of about 3-10 for the past month and a half and is now at about 3 (blue line on the graph above). NASA predicts a 1%  probability of solar flares (X to M, respectively) during the next 48 hours.  NASA also predicts there is only a 1% to 5% probability of major magnetic disturbances in the high latitudes during the next 48 hours. Alaska's Fluxgate Monitor (U. of A.)  shows nearly a glass "surface" on the "solar sea" through which the Earth sails..  NASA expects very little of anything for the next few days. The Mercury | Earth planetary alignment on January 19 likely will produce a rise similar to the current rise and it could even surprise us. In the mean time, Solar Activity is likely to cast little influence on the Earth's atmosphere, weather, and climate regimes. For more details on current sun go here.   For Daily Sun, go to Spaceweather.    See Planetary Alignments for longer range forecast.   January's wintry weather is likely to be influenced at least a little by the slowly awakening Sun. 

COMET WATCH BEGINNING:  - Very Interesting

ATMOSPHERICS:  La Nina is clearly in evidence.  This is technically called an ENSO neutral phase year but La Nina is clearly near or in on-set on the Pacific Equator.  Some also are describing this as a MIN period in the Pacific Ocean Oscillation.  What this means is ITS COLD THIS WINTER and global warming has some serious reality issues.  BUT on the other hand, the Pacific Warm Spot has appeared once again in the North Pacific (above Hawaii) and has grown significantly during the past few weeks.  This has created a weather pattern in the North Pacific which looks like a convoluted knot of contending vectors which makes it  impossible to predict how the air masses will flow onto North America.  The North Atlantic Oscillation is also holding in there in the NW Atlantic.  All this has produced incredibly large distortions, or perhaps swings is a better word, in the Jet Stream and air mass flows.  Tear up the professional weather predictions for any time frame greater than a few days, chaos appears to rule.  For the next ten days of  NOAA weather predictions, go to Climate Center Weather Maps.  Expect cold, snow, rain, and slow storms, widely for the next 30 days, pretty much the weather of now and the past two weeks. 

 GEOPHYSICAL FACTORS:     Currently the Spin Axis has passed away from the Y Axis  for this spiral turn (the Spin Axis got as close to Siberia as it gets and is now headed towards Alaska).  The wobble spiral continues to expand normally in its outward track and will reach its maximum SPIRAL size on the X Axis (X MAX of its seven year cycle) during 2009 .  See Polar Motion for additional information.    

LUNAR SYZYGY:  The Full Moon Quadruple Whammy Syzygy is more or less winding up its affairs.  All extreme moments in the orbits of both the Earth and the Moon have been passed and accordingly all stress vectors in the tectonics of the Earth are now relaxing.  This was the Super Moon of 2009 and most likely this past week gave us the greatest seismic surge for 2009.  Not that there will not be more surges from time to time, and of course a single 6.5 quake in the wrong place in Asia any time this year could easily far surpass the human damage of this most recent surge.  It is just that this may have been the greatest surge.  Next week or the following one, a look ahead for the next few syzygies will be attempted. See The Lunar Cycle  for more details. 

 QUAKES: The recently passed Quadruple Whammy Full Moon Syzygy produced a noticeably greater surge than the December Full Moon which produced at least two Class 7 quakes and several Class 6 quakes.. Activity was widely dispersed, the greatest destruction was in the South Seas where the Class Sevens struck in virtually the same place.  Destruction also hit Costa Rica with a 6.5 magnitude quake near the Capital of San Jose.  World frequency Class 4+ fell way below average today to end the surge. For more on quakes go to Earthquakes. 

VOLCANISM:  Not updated Monday.  May get to it on Tuesday, 1-13-09

EARTH CHANGES STANDING SUMMARY -  In accordance with the Cosmic Frame, tectonic activity likely will begin to surge again through to February 09 during the next phase synchronicities between the lunar and terrestrial orbits.  But keep in mind that the Earth's crust is complex, anything can and sometimes does happen at any time, and thus no accurate predictions can be made consistently.  The Earth Changes Global Warming scenario is more difficult to predict and the weather effects are more chaotic at this time.  Solar input is very low this year, about the same as last year, hence Greenhouse Gas effect is zip, if not negative, accordingly Global Warming and all extreme weather patterns are being driven this year almost exclusively by the warming of the world ocean which now appears to have slowed as well.  Human conditions remain confused and contrarian, war and peace trends are unclear but clearly a major push is being made to instigate reasons for imperial expansion.  Economic conditions continue to disintegrate, most prognosticators are now Bearish on most economic issues.

GEO-ECONOMIC FLUX - - NEW SUMMARY COMING SOON

Chaos rules at the moment and a deep panic is rippling around the world.   It will probably take another year or two to fully mature. The Cayce 25 year economic cycle has come to fruition almost a year later than I predicted in 2004, but still very close to Cayce's specs.    Markets will continue to sink but the Fed is pumping a trillion dollars into the system right at this time, as if the bail out plan was already implemented, which it is not.  Money money money everywhere.....in the banks.  Can you see Scrooge McDuck diving into his huge vault of money?  Inflation is sure to roar!!!!  The banksters are attempting to soft land the economic imbalances with a combination of asset depreciation and roaring consumer inflation.

But who has real money to spend?  Jobs are melting faster than ice cubes on Arizona pavements in July. Those still with jobs are desperately trying to drive down their debt loads and get rid of securities with no future.  The banksters have the money and they can't create an economic revival until someone tells them where to dump the dough.

So the question is where to dump the dough down to bake the bread of the next economic real boom (not bubble).

Oil, down.  A personal relief, for sure, I feel like driving again and it now looks like depressed oil prices will be in effect for at least the next six months, maybe longer.  The banksters and oil monarchies will fix a stable price again but it is difficult to guess where this will be at this time, it will take some several months to reel in.  They would much prefer the $100 range but with worldwide depression howling in the wind, not a chance for at least a year.  With depressed oil price, so goes gold for many moons.  

The downside of low prices for oil is the tremendous braking effect this will have for alt. energy schemes.  Shades of the alt energy bust of 1982 under the Reagan Regime.  For at least the next year a lot of stuff will come along more slowly because the markets are currently much slimmer than they were just six months ago.  Whatever emerges from alt energy, will have to be a strong techno breakthrough to break the oil monopoly when the price of energy is below $50 per barrel.  A review of the heavy research in alt energy is enough to convince me that such a break through is now occurring and it will take only a matter of months and a few years to generate the wave of activity which busts out the R&R Cabal.  Miraculously, there are a few mutually independent pathways which will get us to the right place and all of these are already in inventor garages, close to being more aggressively promoted. The cost of hydrogen production, for instance, has been dropped to 10% or even possibly to 1% of its former BTU requirements by at least four different approaches, which changes EVERYTHING about the sociology of power on the planet Earth.

So for the real economic fix, go with alt energy, that is it in a nutshell.  For all else, especially for failing industries and governments.  Go with Michael Moore's Maxim.  Fire 'em!  . Fire all the auto execs and other industries in trouble, buy their outstanding stock, and shove the companies into restructuring processes.   Don't fall for their scams. Why is the Tribune declaring bankruptcy?  Because the rich families which owned them sold them to a conglomerate which borrowed all the money from banks to buy them from the previous wealthy owners who are now ever so much wealthier.  So a profitable industry was made a debt-ridden industry and now cannot pay its interest and debt payback.  Liquidate the conglomerate, throw off the debt, leave the newspapers free standing, and let the banks sue the crap out of the manipulators who put together the conglomerate. It is that simple.  IT IS THEY WHO OWE THE MONEY. 

DON'T BE A CHUMP FOR HUMBUG ARTISTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Every one of the failing financial institutions is just a variant of a Ponzi Scam, most of them run by white-collar Ivy League Jewish gangster networks.  Bust em. Break em. Dissolve them into oblivion.  Sue all of them and prosecute the entire class any way possible for breach of fiduciary responsibility.

GEOPOLITICAL FLUX - -  

PROGNOSIS ON AMERICAN POLITICS:  The Keystone Kops cartoon continues...  AS THINGS GO--- inherently, chaos rules, we have no idea what is happening next.  Create certainty, go get solar and hydrogen fuel technology to dissolve the power of the corporations and bankers.   Every solar BTU kicks Rockefeller butt.

SPIRITUAL FLUX  - - 

On the horizon, still too dim to be clearly perceived by most, forces in the Spirit Realm are pushing aggressively for more rapid transmutation of conditions and actions.   Rather suddenly, in some cases, the masses and classes will realize with a start that the world has changed dramatically, in some cases never was what we thought it was, the old concepts about as useful as the clothes we wore in our school days.

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.
