Energy Ball Rotating

Since the early days of this ezine, one advantage for Staying Awake
(or for staying awake) has been to remind us of the sun. You know, that frequently
unimagined yellow energy ball rotating over our heads without which there would
be no chlorophyll nor photosynthesis to provide life for species on Earth?
Here’s a personal story that stimulated my interest for Sun’s bond with
Earth. In November, 2003, I was listening to Mitch Battros of EarthChangesMedia
interview Dr. James Hildner, who then held the office for authorizing press
releases from NASA. During the interview, a solar flare, which had spun from
the sun some 17 to 24 hours earlier, brushed against Earth’s magnetic
field. The brush so bent Earth’s magnetic cocoon that the solar instruments’
needles were penned against the level of highest impact for several seconds.
Dr. Hildner became wordless; there was silence. Just recently, NASA announced
that that solar flare in November, 2003, wasn’t the usual maximum of an
XClass-9, but a flare XClass-45.
The importance of an XClass-45 flare is that it’s reportedly the most
powerful since scientists began recording solar flares around the year 1755.
What’s fascinating enough to keep an eye on the sun is that, on top of
the international political and religious absurdities played out, it appears
the sun is moving from cycle 23 into cycle 24.
NASA’s panel of forecasters noted only days ago that cycle 24 is approaching
or has begun, and the new cycle is predicted to be 35 to 50 percent stronger.
You might think of the ‘energy ball rotating’ as a wild card. If
the timing is just so, solar flares can exacerbate storms, volcanoes, earthquakes,
ice ages, and generally interrupt Earthlings’ uses of electricity, thereby
delaying or halting intercontinental contact.
One thing I want you and me to remember is the gargantuan waves of universal
energies, over gargantuan periods of time, which escorted our energy source—the
sun—into existence.
The sun is 4.5 billion years old, and its bond with Earth doesn’t exist
in a vacuum. The sun is dependent on cyclic energy waves it receives from
our Milky Way Galaxy. Pretend a dimmer switch controls those waves of energy
which Sun then shares by rotating and radiating its nurturing light for the
nature of Earth.
I recall back in 2003 or 2004, scientists couldn’t help but notice the
sun hadn’t made its usual timely cyclic shift, so prompted by the sun’s
tardiness, sun cycle 23 was extended. NASA’s panel of forecasters predicts
the apex, or solar maximum of cycle 24 could occur between years 2011 and 2012.
With the forecast of a stronger Sun, it appears Earthlings, other life forms,
and familiar landscapes could be impacted by solar energies and coronal mass
ejections (solar flares) as Sun approaches its apex.
In the last 100 years, more observations about life have been compiled
than the entire history of humankind.
For over 30 years now, assorted scientists have been theorizing extinctions
of species including ours. Every so often, a die off of species occurs, and
the most recent was 65 million years ago. Scientists now presume humans are
presently at the mid point of our species evolution, and we haven’t the
consciousness to imagine or acknowledge the possibilities.
We’ve been untrained to remember we were birthed out of Earth, and therefore
distracted from our custodial duty associated with our species’ only known
home. Some scientists have a working title for the next phase of Earth’s
bond with Sun: ecozoic, a profound species’ environmental awareness radiating
out of a relandscaped Earth.
This is tongue in cheek, but I have to ask, ‘Does Universe shudder
at the environmental choices and divisive relations we Earthlings have permitted
over millennia? Is there an unimaginable, undesigned cosmic plan being played
out between Universe and our species’ choices?’
Yes. Yes. How could I imagine anything but a new cosmology for humankind to
replace the dominant his-story extant for more than ten millennia? The replacement
of the current matrix of illusions for living in the ‘moment to moment’
includes no secrets allowed. Conscious existence will likely perpetuate pain
of change for a while—a confusion presumed unimaginable unless the replacement
happens in a twinkling of an eye.
The energy ball rotating over our heads is the final ruler of Earthlings’
geographical habitats, and activities, intentions, sensibilities, and curiosities—we
just forgot!
Our constant curiosity
is key
to watching what’s being created.
