Abrupt Change and Forces of Higher Density
SPACEWEATHER.COM NEWS: 04/25/2025
INTERPLANETARY SHOCK WAVE: An interplanetary shock wave struck Earth’s magnetic field on April 24th at ~0715 UTC. What is an interplanetary shock wave? It’s an abrupt change in the solar wind–probably a CME that we didn’t realize was coming. This one sparked auroras in New Zealand, but no global geomagnetic storm.
THE STARLINK INCIDENT IS NOT WHAT WE THOUGHT: It never made sense. On Feb. 3rd, 2022, SpaceX launched a batch of 49 Starlinks to low-Earth orbit–something they had done many times before. This time was different, though. Almost immediately, dozens of the new satellites began to fall out of the sky.

A more accurate statement might have read “…impacted by a very minor geomagnetic storm.” The satellites flew into a storm that barely registered on NOAA scales: It was a G1, the weakest possible, unlikely to cause a mass decay of satellites. Something about “The Starlink Incident” (40 Starlink satellites falling out of the sky) was not adding up.
Space scientists Scott McIntosh and Robert Leamon of Lynker Space, Inc., have a new and different idea: “The Terminator did it,” says McIntosh.
Not to be confused with the killer robot, McIntosh’s Terminator is an event on the sun that helps explain the mysterious progression of solar cycles. Four centuries after Galileo discovered sunspots, researchers still cannot accurately predict the timing and strength of the sun’s 11-year solar cycle. Even “11 years” isn’t real; observed cycles vary from less than 9 years to more than 14 years long.
McIntosh and Leamon realized that forecasters had been overlooking something. There is a moment that happens every 11 years or so when opposing magnetic fields from the sun’s previous and upcoming solar cycles collide and cancel (see the animation, above). They called this moment, which signals the death of the old cycle, “The Termination Event.”
After a Termination Event, the sun roars to life–”like a hot stove where someone suddenly turns the burner on,” McIntosh likes to say. Solar ultraviolet radiation abruptly jumps to a higher level, heating the upper atmosphere and dramatically increasing aerodynamic drag on satellites.
This plot supports what McIntosh and Leamon are saying:
The histogram shows the number of objects falling out of Earth orbit each year since 1975. Vertical dashed lines mark Termination Events. There’s an uptick in satellite decay around the time of every Terminator, none bigger than 2022.
As SpaceX was assembling the doomed Starlinks of Group 4-7 in early 2022, they had no idea that the Terminator Event had, in fact, just happened. Unwittingly, they launched the satellites into a radically altered near-space environment. “Some of our satellite partners said it was just pea soup up there,” says Leamon.
SpaceX wasn’t the only company hit hard. Capella Space also struggled in 2022 to keep its constellation of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellites in orbit.
“The atmospheric density in low Earth orbit was 2 to 3 times more than expected,” wrote Capella Space’s Scott Shambaugh in a paper entitled Doing Battle With the Sun. “This increase in drag threatened to prematurely de-orbit some of our spacecraft.” Indeed, many did deorbit earlier than their 3-year design lifetimes.
The Terminator did it? It makes more sense than a minor storm.

Mayan Calendar and Synchronicity of Time and Space
1 Star/LAMAT begins the last trecena of the Tzolk’in round, representing an Ascension of Faith. The Spaceweather proves there are forces beyond our Understanding that rule over us from the Heart of Sky. Under the right conditions, it only takes the slightest breath to blow satellites out of the sky. A Termination Event can happen all-at-once to Instantly Manifest God’s Will, from close up to far away.
We are under pressure. The weight of the world may feel like we’re climbing through “pea soup.” But, for only as long as it takes to Remember to let go. It’s hard to fight the feeling that we have to win our own battles. The only help God needs from Human’s Hand is Faith in the King of the Universe. There’s a Divine Reason for everything and endless ways the Author of Creation can carry out Divine Will. God only needs to whisper to change the landscape of our Life.
We were given the Power to cast off every fear when we claim we are Covered by the Blood of Jesus, who already fought the battle and won.
The last 13-days is a cycle that challenges our Faith. The Human Sign of Faith and the Wisdom to Stand on the Truth by letting go. We can remember in every Storm that we were given the strength to stand by the Power of the Holy Spirit. We won’t be blown out of the Heart of Sky, but we’ll face the same Wind. Every climb was the tempering of Faith that becomes unshakeable when the Signs of God’s Powers reach cross the threshold of Coincidence. God reveals himself through the Truth of our Ascension. The Faith we hold now, is the strength to reach the end.
Focus on the Truth and Celebrate God’s Brightest Star. Venus is shining as the Morning Star, bright enough to be Seen in the Light of the Sun. We were given the Way to Remember by focusing on the Truth that we are God’s Highest Object of Affection.
If you feel the weight of Life, remember to lay your burdens at the foot of the Cross and Believe in Miracles promised by the Word of God. Venus is known as the Divine Time Keeper. When Venus transits/crosses the Sun, it marks the Time when all the Mayan calendars line up and Stars are aligned as circles within circles that expand to eternity.

THE TRECENA OF STAR LAMAT: THE HIGHEST ASCENSION OF THE TZOLK’IN ROUND
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. The page also offers a link to resources for your own practice of counting the days to conceive your own discernment of the Meaning of Time.

Galactic Tone 1: Unity. One is the beginning of all things, the first, the whole and the all in one. One’s are assertive and self-guided and give a good push to whatever project they are associated with. One persons work best when meeting a challenge. Do not expect One-persons to be attentive to details or to put the finishing touches on things.
Star/LAMAT: Star energy is multiplication of all things to abundance. Star has been associated with the fertility of rabbits for its ability to multiply. As each sun in the sky, Star persons shine equally in all directions. This natural tendency of harmony and balance can become compulsion, motivating Star to be too agreeable and too generous, rejected gifts cause fear and resentment. When a Star believes it has been given too much, they are weakened or may even collapse. In this “Black Hole” state, Stars are prone to verbal jousting and arguing to force their point of view on everyone.
A GOOD DAY TO: Ask for abundance in all our relations.
Cherokee, Rabbit/NOQUI’SEGWA: Symbol-Venus, The Morning Star cycle of 260 days and Evening Star cycle of another 260 days, inspired the 13 numbers, 20 Day sign Sacred Calendar. Rabbit is the Trickster of Cherokee culture, matching the Coyote in other nations. The personification of Light and New Life, Sunrise, the scion (a first-generation descendant) of the Moon-Father of earth children, the Rabbit is fertility, be fruitful and multiply. Represents softness, gentleness and vulnerability. LAMAT– Totem Rabbit. Energies of re-birth, regeneration, ripening, harvest and abundance. This person is overflowing with love energy in all areas of life. Spiritual growth is natural and with ease due to the unconditional love energy that flows.

I-Ching Calendar – 04/25/2025 – We are prepared to be born through Living Water.
The I Ching hexagram for April 25, 2025, will be Mountain over Heaven (#26) changing to Lake over Wind (#28). This combination suggests that luck is a fleeting thing, requiring effort to seize and utilize. It’s also a reminder to live life fully, as luck will likely come with preparedness.
