DOUBLE X-CLASS SOLAR FLARE: Big sunspot AR3590 is as dangerous as it looks. During the past 24 hours, the active region has produced two X-class solar flares, a pair of almost identical X1.8 and X1.7 explosions:
Extreme ultraviolet radiation from the flares ionized the top of Earth’s atmosphere, causing shortwave radio blackouts over Hawaii (late on Feb 21st) and Australia (early on Feb. 22nd). Mariners and ham radio operators in those areas may have noticed loss of signal at all frequencies below 30 MHz.
Interestingly, neither explosion lifted a CME out of the sun’s atmosphere. This means the double flares will *not* cause any geomagnetic storms on Earth. Disappointed aurora watchers shouldn’t give up hope, though; more flares are in the offing. AR3590 has an unstable ‘beta-gamma-delta’ magnetic field that harbors energy for additional X-class explosions.
2 Sun/AHAU (Cherokee, Flower/GUN’TSI) – Day 2 of 13 of the 1 Storm/CAUAC Trecena
Descriptions by Ian Xel Lungold (12 Sun/AHAU), wisdom and Tzolk’in calculator preserved on MayanMajix.com
Galactic Tone 2: Mysterious as the question ‘to be or not to be?” Two is the recognition of the separation of self from all else and the desire to be rejoined. Walking a balance while making choices of all kinds, light/dark, male/female, good/bad, Yin/Yang, is the energy of this number. Experiencing the differences between one and another is the use and purpose of this number.
Sun/AHAU: Day of the ancestors and connection to their guidance. The divine face of the sun – lord, musician, singer, dancer, and marksman. Suns are artistic, heroic athletes, visionaries with wise judgment who lead and defend the people. So much is expected from themselves and by other people that unfulfilled expectations are a certainty. An accumulation of these disappointments may lead Sun to evade responsibilities, not accept corrections and even build resentment and disdain towards others. Suns should simplify their lives to be able to rise and shine with unconditional love once again.
A GOOD DAY TO: Ask for the wisdom and continued honored memory of our ancestors.
Cherokee, Flower/GUN’TSI EK: Symbol is the Sun, place of abode of Great Spirit. The Sun creates, nurtures, and is the super communicator, the way station that relays messages and energy from other stars in the galaxy; provides energy for channeling information from the Ancestors; speaking the Living Language of Light, which ignites the consciousness in others. Gold is the color of courage and opportunity of wealth. Creative arts, master craftsman expressing divinity and wisdom through their creations. The face of the flower follows the Sun gathering the fire of creativity, illuminating harmony and balance, resonating peace and continuity within the human spirit. This is the Sign of the Chalice of the Infinite, Caldron of Creation.
