Aside from a reasonably sized Solar Flare yesterday morning Australia time, former Sunspot AR 2192, now known as Sunspot 2209, has been relatively quiet.
While part of me misses major Solar activity because I can literally
feel the energy coarsing through me when the Sun is super active, the
other part really welcomes the integration time that quieter times
bring.
Several weeks ago we thought we were in for a two week break
while 2192 slid round the far side of the Sun, but then another strong
sunspot appeared with yet more strong flares. So we ended up
experiencing almost a month of intense emotions being triggered, old
wounds and patterns coming up, unexpected events and situations forcing
us to feel or do things we hadn't planned on and more people we know
leaving the planet than I can ever remember in such a short period of
time.
I always liken these intense shift months to being like a
car wash/rinse/spin cycle. It's hectic while you're in there, but out
the other side you feel a sense of being more clear and renewed in some
way, with a fresh sense of motivation, passion or perspective,
especially where any of those things have been lacking. You may find
yourself with a completely different set of priorities than you've ever
had before, with old ones drifting off, feeling irrelevant to who you
feel yourself to be now.
Your energy is more connected to your
true self and your true needs now more than ever. What this will mean
is, when you go with the flow of this connection and allow yourself to
acknowledge what you really need/feel/want, you will feel rejuvenated
and energised. When you don't, you will more than likely feel drained
and even resentful or frustrated.
Our heart and soul is taking
over the reins. It is becoming more painful and uncomfortable every day
to repress our true feelings and needs by brushing them aside with 'I
don't have time to do that' or 'I can't just sit and relax, I need to
get things done.' While certain things in life of course have to be
done, if you keep getting messages to slow down, then it would be wise
to listen to those messages in any small or large ways you can.
Likewise, if you are getting messages to take some leap of faith around
some new action or goal, then go for it in any small or large ways you
can: let go of your doubts, and take some steps toward the direction you
are feeling called to go in.
I hope that if you found
yourself in the latest heavy-duty wash/rinse/spin, that you are feeling
some of the "dry, buff and polish" benefits that integration time can
bring.
How are you all feeling?

Sunspot AR 2192 Update
Reports
of former huge Sunspot AR 2192 seem to be conflicting between 'it's
still large' to 'it's bigger' to 'it's in a state of decay' depending on
which space weather site you read. Which is kind of odd because it's
either larger or it's not!
There are no reports of major flares, but the energy would indicate otherwise as this has been a rather intense week. Astrologically this can be explained by the Pluto/Uranus square which has added oomph thanks to Mars going right over Pluto.
Essentially this means Transformation was the theme of the week, likely in an unexpected, out of left field way, and quite possibly associated with some fire-like emotions or compulsion to take action.
Astrology aside, my computer and electrics have definitely been acting like something flarey is going on!?!
How are you all feeling? How are your electrics/computers etc?

Large Sunspot Returning
Remember
Sunspot AR 2192, the one responsible for all those X and M class Solar
Flares 2-3 weeks ago? The Sun's rotation has had it hidden from our view
for almost a fortnight, but will be bringing it back into view over the
next couple of days.
Does it still have some huff and puff, or is it near retirement? We'll soon find out!
This pic tells us one thing: it's still there!

Solar Carwash
So
much for our solar flare break! Sunspot 2205 has come around the bend
into view with a strong M class solar flare a couple of hours ago - not
quite X class but close.
That is the 5th M class from that spot in just over 24 hours, so it seems he's playing tag team with his brother Sunspot AR2192 who is still on the non-visible side of the Sun doing whatever he is doing, unseen by us. (Yet felt on some level!).
The flares of the last 24 hours have felt very different to the ones of the past few weeks. We've been through quite a wash, spin and rinse cycle (and repeat), while today I've felt very clear, energised and focused.
We're integrating the multiple realisations we've experienced recently, and I'd like to think this sunspot is coming in to support that...kind of like the Polish part of a carwash cycle! Here's hoping.....!!

Dodging bullets and catching waves
Okay,
so 9 M-class Solar Flares in the last 24 hours is hardly a 'break in
intensity' but the Sunspot responsible is creeping its way to the other
side of the Sun for a couple of weeks right about now so that's about
the best we can ask for in terms of 'conditions easing!'.
It will still be flaring, and we'll still feel it, but these extreme conditions where it has felt like we're dodging bullets constantly (or being hit by them) will hopefully pave the way for a 2 week period of integrating the immense shifts and changes we have experienced over the past few weeks.
I say 'hopefully' like I'm tired of the flares, and in one way yep I could use a break, but on the other hand the absolute priority of the universe, of our souls, of 'the divine plan' as it were, is our evolution and growth.
These Solar Flares are playing a crucial, important, so welcomed and so appreciated part in our awakening and activation process, so most of the time I am very 'bring it on!" I say 'dodging bullets' but of course it's all Light, revealing everything, and for every time we've felt punched and slam-dunked we've also received huge waves of insight, and with insight comes truth, empowerment and freedom.
And ultimately, that's a huge part of this process: to see our greater truth, to remember our power, and to realise we are free so we can do something here with that truth, power and freedom.
Thanks Solar Flares, and thanks for the breathing spaces in between!
How are you all feeling?

2 week intensity break!
Interesting
info from Space Weather regarding AR2192, the sunspot responsible for
all the recent strong solar flares. Looks like we are in for a 2 week
break from the intensity!:
"In only a few days, the behemoth sunspot will begin a 2-week transit of the far side of the sun, carried around by the sun's 27-day rotation. However, that doesn't mean we've seen the last of this magnificent active region. Big sunspots typically persist for two or three solar rotations before they decay. After it departs in October, AR2192 will probaby return in November."

The Sun: my new alarm clock
Another
X2 flare in progress right now.
I don't sign up to solar flare alerts, only so that whatever I bring through is 'clear' rather than influenced by the mind knowing something. I let the energy do what it does and then I verify by going onto the sites to check what's happening, which is the way I've always worked.
So, that's how I find myself posting this in bed at 2am Sydney time....!!

Sunspot AR2192 just keeps growing!
From
Space Weather: "AR2192 is the biggest sunspot in nearly 25 years, and it
is still growing. The active region now covers 2750 millionths of the
solar disk, an area equivalent to 33 planet Earths skinned and spread
out flat."
In the last 24 hours we've had an X2 flare (twice as strong as an X1), followed by 7 M class flares. An X3 (three times as strong) and X1 featured over the weekend. That translates to a LOT of energy coming down onto us and through us.
Thank you so much to everyone sharing how you are feeling - it is incredible how many people are going through similar experiences!!

Update
to the post about three X Solar Flares this past weekend....we've had
an M Class Flare every hour for the past 4 hours.
Sleep is deep or non-existent, the mind is being cleared, the heart is feeling all, the body is feeling lighter (in between feeling heavier during the processing moments).
Welcome to another week all! x

X3, X1 and X2 Solar Flares this weekend
Another
X class Solar flare is in progress right now. We started the weekend
with an X3 flare, followed almost 24 hours later by an X1, and now 18
hours later this X2. (This is on top of a huge week of flares as you can
read in the blog).
Healing moments and realizations are happening left, right and centre as we receive one shower after another of awakening high-frequency light/energy. You may be feeling blissed out, high on adrenalin, exhausted by all the adrenalin, or overwhelmed by the amount of shifting occurring very rapidly.
Do whatever best grounds and nurtures you, and if you get any nudges to back up your computer or buy some candles (solar activity can affect our power grids and electronics) then listen to those nudges.

2012 where have you been for 2 years?!!
Back in 2012 there were, understandably, a lot of confused and disappointed people. Those of us aware of 'the shift' were left feeling a sense of anti-climax as the year came and went without that 'big' feeling we were all hoping and waiting for, the feeling that would confirm without a doubt something was most definitely happening not just to us, but to others also. There was evidence of course if you looked hard enough, but that was just it: where was the in-your-face, can't escape it, oh my god it's happening finally feeling that we had spent years if not decades preparing for?
In 2012 even NASA's solar physicists were left wondering what was going on as the much awaited solar maximum didn't quite max out as expected. Well peeps, wait and wonder no more. This past week has been like nothing we have experienced so far. The sun is flaring like crazy town, and people are shifting faster than I can say wakey wakey.
It is like someone is coming along with a giant broom and sweeping away all the cobwebs so that everyone can see clearer. We are realizing - real eyes-ing - releasing old patterns in new ways, feeling them slide off us with ease after years of stubbornly holding on. We are having healing conversations, insights and epiphanies. People are owning previously unacknowledged stuff. The most unexpected apologies and forgiveness's are happening. Loved ones, beloved spiritual elders/teachers and dear pets are leaving the planet in what feels like a mass exodus, and I don't say that as any kind of prediction, rather just a statement regarding the last 10 days of soul departures.
Static is being replaced by clarity, and with clarity comes truth, freedom and empowerment. I don't know how long the sun will continue to flare, nor how long we will continue to have days like this that feel like one shift after another. What I do know is this: this past week has been something special. It has changed something for all of us, for the better - even if it has done it via challenging events and emotional outbursts.
Thank you to the Sun for being the portal of this energy for us. Thank you Sunspot AR2192, for flaring and flaring and growing and growing and flaring some more.
It's not all dancing in the streets with happy flags - light brings everything to the surface and so we will see eruptions of violence and anger, we will see those in resistance try to regain a sense of power and control in any way they can.
Yet, this time, finally, finally, the light is flaring back, all cylinders firing.

Strong Solar Flares - The Week that was.
Check out today's newsletter to catch
up on all the solar flare and solar eclipse related posts of this week!

Scorpio Solar Eclipse and earth-facing Sunspot
The
Solar Eclipse today is on 0 Degrees Scorpio! Can you get more intense
than that when it comes to getting a glimpse of all that is hidden, be
that stuff in our personal and global underworld, as well as that which
lies behind the veil between us and other dimensions of reality.
The Sun has had a huge week (read the links on the right for all the solar flare related posts). The large sunspot responsible for all the recent activity is now Earth facing for the first time since it started flaring at the beginning of the week so we may see increased issues with electronic equipment, satellites, power grids etc as well as continuing solar-flare related shifting!!
Transformation is a good thing so as challenging as shifting can be at times, better to shift than to be stuck and stagnant. Thank you Sun! x

More Flares
It
was so good to have a great night's sleep finally last night, but Mr Sun
didn't rest! Another X1 Flare followed by another M flare.
For those asking, the flares are graded from least powerful A through to B, C, M or most powerful X class. Each class is ten times more powerful than the previous class, and has 9 grades of power, except X class which goes on without limit.
Our bodies and energy experience these flares as blasts of high frequency light soaring through our system. On one hand this can be challenging as all kinds of old residue is triggered, coming up and out for release or transformation which we can feel both physically and emotionally. On the other hand, it is invigorating! More than ever this year, when the sun is flaring I feel alive and full of energy, while when it's quiet I feel quite subdued.
Get ready for another day of this everyone!

Heads up
Just
after I wrote the blogpost on Monday about the solar flares there were
some more strong ones. So that's 1 X class on Sunday, 5 M class on
Monday with some C class bordering on being M class and a day of
relative rest yesterday, although I use that term loosely!
There is another huge one building now so just a heads up in case you start feeling super emotional/restless again. Although, with the Solar Eclipse coming up in less than 48 hours this feels like it will be a good, positive-feeling expansive release rather than the slam-dunked kind.
Stay tuned...

Breathing through these strong waves
If you felt like staying under a blanket today, or have had 'came out of nowhere' emotional releases, you are possibly being triggered by the X grade Solar Flare yesterday, (X is highest grade), followed by an M Class today (not as mammoth as X but still mega huge).
This is on top of the fact we are coming up to the Solar Eclipse in 0 Degrees Scorpio on Thurs afternoon/Friday morning depending on your time zone. Ron Laswell of AstroChakras informed me that 'this degree represents the point where the 'veil' is the thinnest' so anything is possible: pay attention to your dreams, visions, insights, nudges and be conscious of what you are calling in from the Universal Field of Potential with your thoughts and feelings. Ron says: "the whole month of Scorpio has a thin veil. Notice how we have Halloween which is more near the center of Scorpio, which I feel explains why we celebrate All Saint's Day during this time."
Not to mention we are still in the fire and water emotional aftermath of the recent Lunar Eclipse in Aries that was both conjunct Uranus and a Grand Fire Trine.
The energy is electric, and potentially explosive (emotional or otherwise). Yesterday I lit the gas on the outdoor burner and wooshka up shot some flames!! To say I had an inner freak out would be an understatement. Christian rushed over to turn the gas off but more flames kept shooting out! So part of me is thinking 'oh god this could explode, please don't explode, oh my god what if it explodes!' while the other part was feeling "'this is so the energy right now."
It wasn't a 'normal' fire that you could just throw some water on (as umm, my non-logical Pisces self discovered). Being gas, there was an element of unpredictability about it which for a few seconds there was very scary. It was a reminder, as I have been reminded many times, that anything can happen anytime - life can end just like that. Life can change, just like that. We try to control and manage everything, we are all consciously creating as much as possible, but even so: life has a life-force than is bigger than us, and we don't always know what it has in store for us.
We can't always control what happens, but we can to the best of our ability choose how we respond to what is happening. Unpredictable emotions and events are happening everywhere right now. It is part of our human nature to react with fear or panic or an angry bout of words when we are feeling out of control, or feeling that some sort of power has been taken out of our hands. I can't count how many such outbursts I've had lately, some completely irrational inner child moments while others are valid parts of my consciousness seeking to be heard. (This is after not only two decades of inner work, but also after years of feeling pretty calm thinking 'thank god I've moved on from those emotionally explosive days'!!) Yet, once that initial wave of strong emotion has washed over us (as is happening faster and faster these days), we are left with the trust we have developed over the years. We are left with the core truth of how we really feel about something or someone. We find ourselves in a quiet place of calm, clarity, or renewed appreciation.
We are feeling everything so intensely because a) these energetic waves are releasing ever deeper aspects of ourselves, so that we can shift ever higher into more of who we really are and b) we are feeling other people's states as we move into increased sensitivity and experience a greater experience of unity consciousness. Sometimes it is hard to know the difference between what is ours and what is not, or what is ours and serving us, and what is not, so a general good affirmation to say is: If this is not mine, I let it go. If this is not serving me I let it go.
The waves are stronger than ever, yet our trust, truth, calm, clarity and appreciation is stronger than ever too. My fabulous cousin-in law, mother of four, once gave me a really great visual to help with the contractions of labour. She said to imagine that I'm in an ocean with waves, and that my baby is in a basket out there on the waves, and as each wave washes over me that the basket is coming closer and closer to me. We are all getting lifted and slam-dunked by energetic and emotional waves - and even if those waves aren't 'ours', we are feeling the splash from those around us. We are in this together, we are a collective and more than ever we can feel what so many others are going through right now. One thing to remember as we're bobbing up and down, is that each wave is taking us closer to our 'baskets'.
It doesn't look like it if we only look at the mainstream news, but with each wave we are uniting collectively for, and thus moving toward, global peace, healthier food production, more sustainable housing, environmental and corporate practices, and greater awareness around a multitude of social and health issues. With each emotional outburst, we get clearer about our feelings, we get clearer about the kinds of relationships and lives we want.
It can feel like you are drowning sometimes, or fit to burst, such is the intensity of these times. Ride the waves as they come, or lift your head up and take a breath (literally) to feel the quiet break point between waves where you can find your peace, stillness and truth - and see your baskets all around you more clearly.
How are you all feeling?

It doesn't look like it if we only look at the mainstream news, but with each wave we are uniting collectively for, and thus moving toward, global peace, healthier food production, more sustainable housing, environmental and corporate practices, and greater awareness around a multitude of social and health issues. With each emotional outburst, we get clearer about our feelings, we get clearer about the kinds of relationships and lives we want.
It can feel like you are drowning sometimes, or fit to burst, such is the intensity of these times. Ride the waves as they come, or lift your head up and take a breath (literally) to feel the quiet break point between waves where you can find your peace, stillness and truth - and see your baskets all around you more clearly.
How are you all feeling?
