Big Shift

Had a really big shift this morning. Knocked me for a loop. I didn’t even remember to write about it till the evening.

There has been a large coronal hole on the earth facing side of the Sun for several days. The solar wind for the CME a few days ago hit today. More is expected on January 1st or 2nd. I suspect for a few days after that, as well.

The shift was so unexpected and strong that I got lost in it. I was able to get some things accomplished even if off kilter. It’s funny that I was thinking recently that I hadn’t felt a big one in a while.

CME Activity

Christmas Eve and I’m finally getting settled enough to write about the latest.  Christmas season is chaotic with energy on its own, throw in a CME or two and it ups the angst.

I was working on some images for a little Secret Santa project, when I got the déjà vu rush.  Will be interesting if I get my wish for Christmas.

Have a good one!  And mock up a great New Year!

Filament Collapse

Check out spaceweather.com for the video. It’s amazing. I guess it didn’t warp space because I didn’t have any monster shifts. Things have been fairly calm.

Jitters

A relatively small coronal hole came on the Earth facing side of the sun a few days ago. The wind stream should hit around the 10th.

I’ve been jittery and have had friends and family acting strange but nothing that got my attention at the time. One incident that in retrospect could be sun related:
A friend came to me upset and frustrated over a problem. He said he made certain changes that made sense in his current mindset. Unfortunately, they were not really going to be the final solution.

Later when I asked him about it, he didn’t remember the conversation or doing anything. Now I wonder if his actions were shift induced.
