"CIRs are transition zones between fast- and slow-moving streams of solar wind. They contain magnetic fields and shock waves akin to those of CMEs. While CMEs require some sort of explosion on the sun, CIRs do not. They form gently from the sandwiching of solar wind streams--no solar flare required.
The arrival of the CIR on March 8th immediately caused a G1-class (Minor) storm, intensifying to category G2 (Moderate) on March 9th. Sky watchers in Iceland, Canada and multiple US states from New York to Utah saw the geomagnetic glow.
A fast-moving solar wind stream has arrived on the heels of the CIR. This is the same stream that created the CIR in the first place by compressing a region of slower solar wind ahead of it. Blowing almost 600 km/s, the fast stream could cause additional category G1 (Minor) storms on March 10th.. "
INTERPLANETARY SHOCK WAVE: An interplanetary shock wave struck Earth's magnetic field on April 24th at ~0715 UTC. What is an interplanetary shock wave? It's an abrupt change in the solar wind--probably a CME that we didn't realize was coming. This one sparked auroras in New Zealand, but no global geomagnetic storm.
GEOMAGNETIC STORM WATCH (G2): Moderate (G2) geomagnetic storms are possible on April 22-23 when a co-rotating interaction region (CIR) is expected to hit Earth's magnetic field. CIRs are transition zones between fast- and slow-moving streams of solar wind; they contain enhanced magnetic fields akin to those of CMEs. Sky watchers across Canada and northern-tier US states from New York to Washington should be alert for auroras. Aurora alerts: SMS Text.
A LARGE HOLE IN THE SUN'S ATMOSPHERE: A large hole in the sun's atmosphere is facing Earth and spewing a stream of fast-moving solar wind directly toward our planet. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory photographed the opening, which stretches almost a million kilometers across the sun's southern hemisphere:
This is a "coronal hole"--a vast region in the sun's atmosphere where magnetic fields have opened up, allowing solar wind to escape. The hole looks dark because hot gas normally contained there is missing. It's on its way to Earth.
At the top of the page, we predicted a CIR (co-rotating interaction region) would hit Earth on on April 22nd. This giant hole is the driving force behind it. Fast solar wind flowing from the hole is compressing slower-moving solar wind in front of it, creating CME-like shock waves and magnetic fields that comprise the CIR.
G2-class geomagnetic storms are likely when the CIR reaches Earth.
To my daughter: For your kabbalah studies.
The "lake of fire"/water symbol colored red instead of blue, is purification, cleansing, refining, to match the Supernals. Not the damnation for eternity nonsense of the ignorantly interpreted book of Revelations. All Life, humanity & world systems eventually pass through this as their cycles close out, withdrawing into their Source. Initiation is the inspiration to experience all that now, in the flesh, as if this could be comprehended as real, which, paradoxically, it can't, nevertheless, it is... on the obverse of the pendant, this is all conjured or drawn down into the Minea lineage. This is my task, what I was born for. I suspect your grampa, my dad, intuited this. He set me up by his labor, to have the ease & means to accomplish this.
This is Cubismo Gizmo.
Pendant made for me by my daughter, as per instructions.
