Earth Changes Bulletin Update
As Of June 30 2004 You have
heard of the Weather Report? Here exclusively is this
week’s "Earth Report" - a short review of the “big picture” about
how the dynamic changes in the Sun and the Earth are effecting our
lives more and more intensely, with the latest prognostications and
predictions for weathermen, farmers, investors, businessmen, and every
man. You may click here for

the geophysical front, for the moment the
solar vortex forces in the Cosmos are mainly down, but still showing
abilities to bob back up again at the drop of a hat. Sunspots
peaked as high as 142 June 20, dropped to 45 but are now rising again
at 50, with perhaps another peak due in a few days. Weather forces are
now lulling and with any luck solar activity will stay down and allow
clear weather to prevail during the next week. On the Earth itself,

Program
Thesis: What are we
trying to do with the Earth Changes Bulletin? Most news
media do not handle technical and scientific subjects like geology and
earth sciences very well. They don't understand the causes and
effects of activities in the Sun and Earth. Accordingly, they
often do not understand if, when, how, why to report earthquakes,
volcanic activity, global warming effects The treatment often
sounds absent-minded, poorly qualified, and frequently contains various
technical errors. Seldom is the treatment entertaining and
genuinely educational. Based on new
scientific principles which have emerged during the past thirty years,
many of the dynamic activities of the Sun and Earth can be linked
together to see how a range of effects are linked together. This
makes it possible to paint "the big picture" into a perspective which
explains many diverse events and processes, especially climate and
weather patterns such as global warming and El Nino. From the "big
picture", long range predictions can be made for weeks and even months
ahead. The result is sophisticated cutting-edge information which
is objective, balanced, astute, relevant, and can be easily seen and
appreciated by lay audiences. The perspective is generally
global, seldom parochial. For the framework of concepts, terms, and
current conditions which are used or described in the these Bulletins,
see the Earth Changes 2003 Almanac Calendar. To see the internet resources which are used to prepare this Update, take a look at the Earth Monitor front page - http://www.michaelmandeville.com/earthmontor/ |

STILL COOKS AND IT WILL COOK THE POLITICIANS AND THE ECONOMY ALL THE
WAY THROUGH TO 2008: This synthesis is far ahead of the daily
digests in all halls of the internet media: so far (since may 2003)
the track record on this set of predictions for 2003-2008 is running
100 per cent. If you have not purchased this book, you will
remain ignorant of the main dynamics which are rapidly changing
everything. LATEST UPDATE NOTE AS OF
JUNE 30, 2004 – Conditions appear to be
settling down and stabilizing, which is about the only thing which can
happen in the dog days of High Summer, especially in hot arid desert
regions with little to poor air conditioning. As people vacation
escape or stay in place to survive, all the contradictions, struggles,
and violence will appear to abate and this will give Bush’s Imperial
Faction the appearance of being on a roll with some momentum, but
people will be too busy elsewhere to notice. Things will “cook”
on the back burner until September. Until then, all markets and
equities will flat line after a little spurt of minor adjustments from
the sorcery of Greenspan’s interest rate increase. During the
Fall, to make up for lost time, many pots will boil over in all
directions on all topics. LATEST UPDATE NOTE AS OF

As
stated in the “Coming Economic Collapse of 2006”, the nature of human
politics reflects the communication abilities of the human
species. As we transform the media, as we have been on the Iway,
we will transform human politics and the entire Earth. Making the
way for the New Earth is operationally equivalent to making a new Media
on the Iway. Not that that is all that there is to it. Not by a
long shot…but IT IS one of the essentials we need to dissolve the
blockages and dance around the tyrannies. |
SPIRITUAL
WATCH How to
converge and express the spirit of mass transformation into
manifestation, HOW to be, IS the question. How to do is the praxis of
the time. Examining this question, probing it, is the chief
trendline of this year. ALL IS IN TRANSISTION. EVERYTHING WILL WORK OUT
DIFFERENTLY THAN PEOPLE ARE CURRENTLY FEARING OR PROJECTING. AT ALL LEVELS. THIS MEANS ALL OF US IN
OUR PERSONAL LIVES. THIS SUMMER WILL PROVIDE
A LITTLE RELIEF IF YOU ALLOW IT. LET THE CHANGES COOK
WHILE YOU FOCUS ON SOME VERY SIMPLE TUNING INTO NOW AND THE EARTH. GO CAMPING GO FISHING GO SIGHT-SEEING AND TRY SOMETHING
RADICAL, LIKE SITTING DOWN IN A BEAUTIFUL PEACEFUL SPOT AND DO NOTHING BUT BE FOR A
WHOLE DAY. BLESS ALL THAT YOU SEE. THANK GOD. IT IS AMAZING HOW HARD IT
IS FOR PEOPLE NOT TO DO
DO. FORGET ABOUT FEARS AND
THE PLANS WHICH ARE FALLING APART. FORGET ABOUT TRYING TO
REMAKE THE WORLD IN YOUR IMAGE. FLOW WITH THE TIDE AS YOU
LET GO OF OLD PATTERNS. WORK DILIGENTLY AROUND
ALL DISRUPTIONS AND BLOCKAGES TO BRING USEFUL CONCLUSIONS. IF THE MATTER IN FRONT OF
YOU IS CONFUSING, DROP IT, FALL BACK, AS FAR BACK AS YOU NEED TO
“REFRAME” YOUR ISSUES. KEEP REFRAMING UNTIL YOU
CAN FOCUS CLEARLY. THE CONFUSION WILL DISAPPEAR… THE CORRECT RESOLUTION
FOR YOU SHOULD BE CLEAR. PERFECTLY CLEAR. YOUR “FRAMEWORK”
OR WINDOW OF CHOICE SHOULD DISSIPATE CONFUSION, NOT ENJOIN YOU IN
GREATER DOUBTS AND CONCERNS AND ANXIETY. SO GET EASY…….AND ALLOW
THE CLARITY OF THE BEST RESOLUTIONS OF YOUR ISSUES TO COME TO THE FORE
AND TAKE OVER. |
The “Great
Purification” predicted by the Hopi, Maya, Q’ero, and many others
continues. How amazing that these ancient oral traditions could
tune into last year and this one to advise us that this was a period of
profound historical turning involving The Great
Purification of the
Earth? For additional discussion, see the commentary of May 19, 2004
and the commentary of June 16, 2004. THE
NEW BASIS IS GESTATING…. THE
time to link the spiritual communities of the Earth. The Whole Earth.
IT HAS BECOME URGENT TO LINK THE SPIRITUAL COMMUNITIES WITHIN A BROAD
MOVEMENT WHICH PROVIDES NEW CURRENTS OF SPIRITUAL LEADERSHIP. |

FOR THE MOST PART: Steady
as she goes. A slow acceleration in the shifting of the poles has been
underway for perhaps the past 100 years and the last three decades has
shown an increase in the rate of acceleration. This has appeared
to accelerate even more during the past decade. |
POLAR MOTION
What is happening to the motion of the Earth. For the overall summary of the status of polar motion CLICK HERE. To see the current graphs of polar motion, CLICK HERE. Scroll down the page until you get to the black and white graphs with show the x and y coordinates of the North Spin Axis on two separate graphs. THERE IS NOTHING SMOOTH
ABOUT THE SINOSOIDAL WAVEFORM OF POLAR MOTION ALONG THE X AND Y
DIMENSIONS. THERE IS DEFINITELY “A DISTURBANCE IN THE FORCE”, SO
TO SPEAK. We reported disturbance
first in the X Wave plot during the first few months of this year. That
appears more normal now but the Y dimension is now showing a clear
“warp” of its wave form. http://maia.usno.navy.mil/xplot2.gif http://maia.usno.navy.mil/yplot2.gif |

MAGNETIC
POLES – SHIFTING What is
happening to the magnetic fields of the Earth. No real change during the
past year: a magnetic pole shift is not something to be very
concerned about within this decade at least. |
|
|
Asteroids As of June 04, NASA’S ESTIMATE: “Potentially Hazardous
Asteroids (PHAs) are space rocks larger than approximately 100m that
can come closer to Earth than 0.05 AU. None of the known PHAs
(asteroids) are on a collision course with our planet,
although astronomers are finding new ones all the time.” |
PLANETS
& ALIGNMENTS For background and the current information on planetary alignments go to the Earth Changes Almanac Calendar. The Almanac lays out the planets and the lunar phases for entire year in advance to allow you to find the best and worst periods of weather, earthquake activity, ethereal “lunar” influences, etc. The Almanac IS OUT OF DATE AS OF THIS MOMENT. It will be updated in the following weeks. We have apparently
decoupled from the Venus | Earth alignment and from the follow-up
alignment of the Mercury | Mars alignment on June 27. The next
alignment is a Mercury | Jupiter alignment on July 4. Quite obviously we had a
huge jump in the sunspot count for the last alignment with Mars.
Another spike is likely due for the Jupiter connection and it is
already forming up. It may be small, under 100. Following July 4, the
next alignment season for the planets is during the last week of July.
Beginning about July 24, a progression of three different alignments
involving different pairs of planets will occur within a few days of
earth other. The following chart from the Home Planet Software
displays these alignments, beginning with Venus | Uranus, then Earth | (DOES ANY READER KNOW A URL FOR A CHART OF THE PLANET SIGNS WHICH I CAN INSERT HERE TO HELP PEOPLE READ THIS CHART – I AM ALSO LOOKING FOR SOFTWARE WHICH WILL CREATE A HIGHER RESOLUTION IMAGE OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM AS OF ANY PARTICULAR DATE WE SELECT)
The Moon this day is now
deep South of the Equator (its
South Node) 12 days past the last New Moon. It is now
approximately 365,518 KM from the Earth. It is 96% of the Full Moon
(visibility). The next Full Moon will be July 2 at 11:09 UTC and
the next New Moon is July 17 2004 at 11:25 UTC. (Perigee =
the Moon’s closest approach to the Earth during its monthly orbit which
increases gravitational influence of the Moon by as much as 15%; Apogee
= the Moon’s greatest distance from the Earth during its monthly
orbit). (Berkland has a more complex formula for syzygy and
his dates are often different.) For details see the Syzygy website. |

PLANET
WATCHING For
background and the current information on observable planets. NASA REPORTS:
DAYLIGHT METEORS: Today Earth is passing through a stream of dusty
debris from Comet Encke. The resulting meteor shower, the beta Taurids,
can't be seen because it occurs during the daytime. But you can hear
it: Whenever a meteor flies over the Naval Space Surveillance Radar
(NAVSPASUR) in Click here
to listen--live! Expect to hear a ping
every two minutes or so during daylight hours in JUPITER STORMS: Two giant
storms on the planet Jupiter are bumping into each other. One is the
Great Red Spot, twice as wide as Earth; the other is a white oval known
as "BA" in Jupiter's South Temperate Belt. |

SUNSPOTS The events in the solar atmosphere which impact weather and climate patterns, the magnetic field and auroras, including forecasts for the week, month, and year ahead. CLICK HERE for background information. To follow the numbers below, click here to view the Solar Cycle 23 Chart. Or, get the data in a NOAA Table. SUNSPOT
COUNT AT 50 and rising once again as of June 29, 2004 After dropping to a count
of 28 on June 12, the number of sunspots bobbed up and down on a
ten day uptrend which spiked the number at 142 on June 20. Since
then, the Sunspot Count slowly fell to 45 where it bottomed on June
28. The Solar Flux dropped from a high of 118 on June 20 and
dipped down to 85 as of yesterday, June 29. The Solar Flux now could
be headed upwards for another mini rise, along with another rise in the
sunspot count. If the pattern of the
past three months is followed, we should see only minor peaks and
valleys, ranging from 50 to about 90. at the most. But
then....we could also be blindsided once again by another solar sucker
punch. How the Sunspots will
form up during the triple pair alignment play at the end of July is
anybody’s guess. Solar activity, as we have seen repeatedly,
could take any extreme but my guess is that the energy will produce
three relatively small but distinct peaks under 100. |
|
|
|
SOLAR
ACTIVITY As reported
by NASA/NOAA unless otherwise stated. (Sudden surprises and huge
storms are always possible even during sunspot minima periods such as
the one we are currently headed into). Solar activity is calm. As of today, the Solar
Wind was modestly robust at 556.2 km/s this day while pushing a density
of 2.3 protons/cm3”. NASA The Fluxgate Chart at the University of Alaska (which measures magnetic disturbances in the Earth’s atmosphere created by solar winds and ion storms) was reasonably flat with five relatively minor fluctuations during the past 24 hours (as of this time, about 2 PM Mountain time US). To see the Fluxgate moment to moment, CLICK HERE. NASA
PREDICTS:
“None of the spots on the sun today pose a threat for strong solar
flares.” During the next 24/48 hours, probability for an M-class solar
flare is at 5% and for an X-class solar flare is at 1%, with a 1% to
30% probability for minor to severe geomagnetic disturbances during the
next 24/48 hours, depending upon latitude. Jan Alvestad reports: “The geomagnetic field
was unsettled to active on June 29. Solar wind speed ranged between 533
and 600 km/sec under the influence of a high speed stream from coronal
hole CH103…At midnight there were 2 spotted regions on the visible
disk. The solar flare activity level was very low. No C class events
was recorded during the day…No obviously earth directed CMEs have been
observed…A recurrent trans equatorial coronal hole (CH103) was in a
geoeffective position on June 26-27.” Jan Alvestad predicts: “The geomagnetic field
is expected to be quiet to active on June 30 due to a high speed stream
from coronal hole CH103 and quiet to unsettled on July 1-4.“
Alvestad also predicts for the next 24 hours, 0% probability of coronal
holes, 0% probability of CME's, 20-60% probability of M and X Class
Flares MONTHLY
AVERAGES IN SOLAR CYCLE 23: (These numbers are reported by Jan
Alvestad) Over all, the sunspot average count (ISSN) for February 2004
was 46.0. March 2004 was even higher with the ISSN average count
at 48.9 April’s count was radically lower at 39.3. The May 2004 average count of 41.5
was SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN in April. This was about 9% higher than
predicted. Though now dropping
again, Solar Cycle 23 activity was STILL quite high for most of June,
relatively speaking. THE MONTHLY AVERAGE FOR JUNE COULD EXCEED
May’s numbers. |

WORLD
WEATHER SUMMARY Those who
have been following the patterns have seen that the correlations
between sunspot peaks and major storm fronts coming in off the oceans
to track across the continents is roughly pretty good, sometimes very
much exactly on the mark. Accordingly, our “sloppycasts”
(approximate continental weather patterns) this past few years have
proven out to be fairly worthwhile. As predicted, the weather
respite was brief in many wide areas. Storms and floods pervaded
far and wide this past week and displays of the atmosphere over Then peace will reign in
the weather for a little while, all depending upon the next movement of
the sunspot count. The coming alignment may produce big, may produce
small. If we go by the rhythm of the past two months, it should
produce only small peaks, which will produce only a very small impact
on Earth's weather. EARTH
WEATHER PREDICTION FOR THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS (Northern
Hemisphere) This “sloppycast” is based on sunspot counts, planetary
alignments, and visual data shown on satellite and radar. LAST WEEK’S PREDICTION
CONFIRMED AT LEAST IN NORTH AMERICA: Conditions remain unstable
and unpredictable. Plan for practically anything. All
weather patterns are receiving new energy, another round of major storm
fronts will pour in wet warm marine air from the continental coasts.
Rising in elevation and latitudes, the desert zones will remain mostly
dry but the higher mountain ranges and mid continental zones will
receive much in the way of tornadoes, thunderstorms, and spot
flooding. Rocky Mountains, Great Plains, and NEW
PREDICTION: Conditions remain unstable and
unpredictable. Plan for practically anything. Atmosphere is
contracting and all patterns should mute out but solar activity could
change conditions rapidly. EARTH
WEATHER PREDICTION FOR SUMMER SEASON (Northern
Hemisphere) This “sloppycast” is based on sunspot counts, planetary
alignments, and visual data shown on satellite and radar. WRONG PREDICTION FROM
LAST WEEK (THE TIMING WAS OFF): Another storm front will pour into the
continental interiors during the first week of July. July 4 may be
mostly clear but the storms will soon follow. REVISED: July 4 may
be mostly clear. Expect the monsoon months of July and August to
be as unpredictable as the sunspot spikes have been during the past two
months. If the Sunspot Count remains low this coming week, July
will be tame. SOUTHWEST
CONDITIONS This
“sloppycast” is based on six years of living in the USA Pacific
Southwest, the sunspot counts, planetary alignments, and visual data
shown on satellite and radar. Weather in the Southwest
has been without much in the way of storms. Except for high
elevations (above 5000 feet), the land has parched out, dry as a
bone. More wells are going dry, everybody fears a continuation of
the drought while praying for a normal monsoon. It is now hot, but the
heat alternates with wind!!!. Strangely, the nights still cool
off considerably more than in previous summers. STANDING PREDICTION FOR
THE NEXT MONTH: In between the major storm fronts, between
sunspot spikes, as the atmosphere as a unit is contracting or
expanding, the weather will tend to provide moments of the traditional
monsoon, bringing relief for agriculture. THIS ITEM CONFIRMED
THIS PAST SEVEN DAYS: “The higher elevations (plus 5000 feet) will fare
MUCH better than the lower elevations.” The Southwest monsoon
will begin about on schedule this year (during the first week in July)
UNLESS ANOTHER MAJOR SUNSPOT SPIKE BLOWS IT ALL TO THE NORTH. |

EL NINO
& LA NINA WATCH NEW THIS WEEK: As
of the charts of mid June, no Nino or Nina is indicated as of the
moment and conditions seem to be verging away from either condition. ADDITIONAL
NOTE: The year 2004 and/or 2005, in accordance with the 100 year
X Wave Graph of the motion of the spin axis in Chandler’s Wobble, COULD
BE EL NINO YEARS. Graphs of various El Nino periods seem to
show that the beginning of temperature build-up can occur as late as
April of an El Nino year. So 2005 may not be callable until early
Spring 2005. |

KEEP
WATCHING THE ARCTIC, ANTARCTIC, and the desert zones. These areas
are the most objective front line observatories of the climate shift. |
GLOBAL
WARMING It is
becoming obvious that we have a long term real shift in the average
temperatures and climate regions related to the latitudes. This
climate shift is creating a growing environmental disaster in the polar
zones and in the desert-prone latitudes such as in the Pacific
Southwest. For the latest short review, see Earth
Changes Bulletin Update As Of May 26, 2004 Weather activity this
first week of Summer 2004 was less extreme than in previous years in
most places, suggesting a continued dampening of the solar influence,
EVEN IF global warming signals, such as a record-breaking early melt of
the Artic, or continuation of the Western North American drought,
appeared widespread throughout the Northern Hemisphere. Quite clearly, the
relationship between solar activity/weather and global
warming/climatechange ARE NOT IN A LINEAR RELATIONSHIP. This impels us
to look DIRECTLY for other causes, causes other than the Sun, the
Atmosphere, and human impact on the Atmosphere. I used to believe that
the drought problem was primarily caused by Solar Cycle 23. That
is clearly too naïve. In the Southwest, from Southern California
to At the current time, this
Change In The Earth, is the most significant long term change which is
underway. Like the other tectonic changes, this shift is slowly
accelerating, meaning the tempo is speeding up each year. Certain arid zones,
especially the American Southwest and |

IONIZING
SOLAR ACTIVITY & MASS BEHAVIOR CONFIRMED: AS
PREVIOUSLY REPORTED: The ionic flux and the human contradictions
of denial have focused people into thinking and plotting intensely
their next round of moves within a highly polarized mental and
emotional atmosphere. Expect heavy choppiness in all things
human. Sudden shifts, both good and ill, everywhere. Recently there has been a
strong chop in the polls against Bush. But as the year
progresses, the polls could begin to chop the other way for a spell (by
a spell) as the mass mind focuses on other things. It will take at least
another six months for these factors to smooth out….Since the emotional
damage inflicted this past four years has been so severe, psychological
conditions may not smooth out until the beginning of the next solar
cycle sometime in 2006/07 |

EARTHQUAKES Around the
world to see the current and potential patterns of seismic activity,
with coverage of the windows of danger. I prepared this section
by pulling out the Earth Changes 2003 Calendar which has everything
plotted on it. You should too. Check out the Almanac as
well, it discusses all of the windows for the year and even spotlights
the two most dangerous windows. Unless otherwise specified, all quake
activity which is discussed is based on the USGS database charts and
tables which list quake activity in excess of 2.0 mag. and above. FOR
MORE QUAKE INFO RELATED TO SYZYGY WINDOWS, Jim Berkland calculates
syzygy windows with considerably more sophistication than I do. See Syzygy.com The greatest number of
quakes, above 3.0, occurred in five distinct zones. These are the
usual and accustomed places for quakes, though For a non-syzygy week,
the past seven days saw a decrease, as should be, in frequency of
quakes. But there were three interesting anomalies, 8
shape-shifter quakes in the Great Rift of the World (these were heavily
connected to the polar zones), two 6 plus quakes (one in Southern
Alaska and one in Cost Rica), and an increase in the numbers of small
quakes below 3.0 in most active areas of North America. Three of the
shape-shifters occurred today, June 30. There should be another
major increase in quakes begin to appear at any time during the four
days for the Full Moon Syzygy, which will begin more or less on July 1
and extend through July 4. Since the next Lunar Perigee is July
13/14, this syzygy period should produce only modest levels of quake
activity. SHAPE-SHIFTERS
WATCH The quake
activity in the Great Rift is one of the most important harbingers for
the Earth Changes Watch to monitor. As the Earth’s crust adjusts its
shape in response to gravitational and spin energy vectors, quakes in
the Great Rift increase and tectonic activity all around the world
increases. (Unless otherwise specified, all quake activity
which is discussed is based on the USGS LOCAL AREA database charts and
tables which list quake activity in excess of 3.0 mag. and above.
Generally most of the quakes which appear in these counts are 4.5 plus
in magnitude.) It was a very busy week
for the Great Rift of the Earth. At least eight quakes revealed a
new episode of shape shifting in the crust of the Earth. Three
were in the Arctic zone along the Mid Atlantic portion of the Great
Rift. Four were along the Antarctic Tectonic Plate edge in the
South Indian Ocean between Africa and There was a 4.7 very
