X-CLASS SOLAR FLARE AND NEW MOONPublished on March 30, 2014
X-CLASS SOLAR FLARE AND NEW MOON
Just a quick note that yesterday at 12:52 PM EST we had a very strong X1 class solar flare, a rare 'magnetic crochet' variety, which mean that instead of waiting for some time (days) for the CME (Coronal Mass Ejection) to hit Earth, the magnetic crochet causes a upsurge in the ionization of Earth's upper atmosphere while the flare is taking place. Flare experts suggest that more flares may be expected this weekend, a 55% change of an M-Class flare and a 20% chance of another X-Class flare.
Solar flares affect us emotionally and creatively. I won't detail their effects here, but I have a couple of free e-books on the effects of solar flares, and several videos for those interested. Look for them here:

And to top it off, we have New Moon at 2:48 PM EST today, which looks to be a powerful and sensitive one. I also have books and videos on the Moon and lunar events at the above link.
So, folks, we are rounding a corner from the often-troublesome days before a New Moon and ready to start a new cycle. I know I am ready for a change. How about you?
