“Last night, pulsating auroras hung over our heads for more than an hour,” reports Elżbieta Haftek, who sends this picture froom Eden Prairie, Minnesota.
“The pillars of colors were easily seen from my backyard,” says Haftek. “I took these pictures using only my iPhone 14. It was so bright that even videos came out really vivid.”

Tonight here in New Zealand we had a front row seat for what promised to be an exciting display of the southern lights. I headed off to my usual observing perch, but found it too crowded. So drove to a remote area of the Otago Peninsula and was delighted to see a wonderful display of the Aurora Australis, which was topped off by one of the best displays of STEVE i have ever seen. I also got to enjoy seeing an SAR arc crossing the moon!

Perseid Meteors peaked last night. Cloud cover in SE Kansas prevented any sightings in my backyard.
Mayan Time…
The 13th uinal of the Tzolk’in calendar (last 20 days) is Time ordered for the highest incoming “Light of Revelation.” The Cherokee, Rattlesnake Tooth (aka Road/EB on the Tzolk’in) symbolizes a healing power from above, symbolized by a rainbow, “the delicate display of electromagnetic rays of the SUN.”
5 Road/EB is an Empowerment through a Divine Order of Time in Synchronicity.

Visit the 13-Day Trecena Guide Page for the “Tzolk’in Field Guide: A Daily Practice for Personal Discernment.” My gift for the Tzolk’in round offers an overview for each 13-day trecena and the aspects of each day of the Tzolk’in round.

Galactic Tone 5: Empowerment. At the center of the cube we find Five. Five is an intelligent, organizing force which manages communications and materials, knowledge and application. Fives are natural networkers who gather what is needed. These persons can probe directly to the core of any situation making them excellent investigators.
Road/EB: The bearer of time and conductor of destiny; also known as Human; these persons open the road and guide to the future groups, communities and individuals alike. Likable, obedient, dedicated hard workers and organizers, Road persons are fortunate in business and travel. Many become care takers of the poor, sick, or old people, where they may make personal sacrifices. Road is sometimes referred to as the sign of grass, which is the most bountiful of all life forms, but is also the most humble. Road persons are affectionate and emphatic; they are easily hurt but slow to anger. Holding in of negative emotions and unexpressed resentment can lead to illness, a poisoned opinion of others and a false bravado for this sun sign.
A GOOD DAY TO: Do some community service.
Cherokee, Rattlesnake Tooth/KANU’GA: Symbolized by a rainbow, the delicate display of electromagnetic rays of the SUN. Rattlesnake Tooth is the Natal day sign of Medicine, the Shaman, the Priest, the Healer, and the Sorcerer. Guardian of the Way, Keeper of the Keys of the secret Kingdom.
