Interesting, how long hasthis one been gone?

I notice now the Xray hasn't updated since November.

Yes, another geomagnetic storm coming - not from that hole, but the latest one.
I'm trying to make a correlation between high geomagnetic activity, the Consciousness Project Dot, and my dreams...

Love,

The new satellites and cameras have done wonders for our ability to observe, and hopefully understand our sun. Hopefully we will start to understand how it really affects us.

I would wholeheartedly agree that dreams and such are part of it. Our bodies are so sensitive, it would be inconceivable that we don't react to such massive forces in our environment.

When though will we actually accept that we react to solar storms? Same as the full moon theory, how long until it's accepted into our "culture" that yes, full moon means crazy people?

Not just an old wives tale, but one with scientific backing. Science has so much to learn still.

peace and love

Been keeping my eye on another one, which has been growing since it came into view over the last two days, and seems to have a good chance of joining with the one below it.

Been actively tracking the sun lately. It's good data porn.
