A Reflection: As Above, So Below
SPACEWEATHER.COM NEWS: 05/21/2025
A FATA MORGANA IN OHIO: Last Thursday morning at Edgewater Beach, Ohio, photographer Tyler Penland witnessed something strange on the Lake Erie horizon. A massive tanker ship appeared to hover above the water—its form stretched and distorted, as if suspended in midair:
“I took my first trip to the Great Lakes and was treated to also my first Fata Morgana,” Penland said. “It was a very cool effect with this ship on the horizon.”
Fata Morgana is a rare type of mirage caused by layers of air at different temperatures. When warm air rests above a cooler surface—like the still-chilly waters of Lake Erie in spring—light rays bend in unusual ways. Distant objects, such as ships, can appear to float, stretch, or even flip upside down.
This mirage is most often seen in polar or desert regions, but the Great Lakes can produce them, too, when conditions are just right. Cold lake water, calm air, and a warming sky created the perfect setup for the Lake Erie optical illusion.
MINOR GEOMAGNETIC STORMS ARE POSSIBLE THIS WEEK: Minor G1-class geomagnetic storms are possible later this week as Earth enters a stream of solar wind flowing from a large hole in the sun’s atmosphere. If a storm occurs, it will most likely happen on May 23rd when a glancing-blow CME arrives, adding its power to that of the solar wind stream.
Mayan Calendar Signs and Synchronicity
The Jaguar/IX trecena offers a Time for Reflection on the Unseen powers of Spirit. IX is a symbol of 7 that completes Creation. Position 14 is a reflection of 7 x 2. As Above, So Below” is the “great law of Creation.” It means that whatever we create in one realm of Consciousness will be manifested in every other realm. The Dream of our Life began in the mind of God. A Vision Quest is a ritual that carries out the Intention to live by the Light of Spirit to create the Reality of the Truth, As Above, So Below.
Look for the Signs of Spirit, and you will see the Truth. When you see a Sign, it’s a Sign to look for the Signs of Spirit. There are no coincidences in God’s creation. Geomagnetic storms of Light are forecast for May 23, 2025. On 3 Wisdom/CIB we are moved by the Light.
John 4:48 KJV
48 Then said Jesus unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.
Give thanks for every Sign you see and reflect on what they mean. Remember, Signs are given for the future.

1 Jaguar/IX (Cherokee, Panther/SAHO’NI) – Day 1 of 13 of the Jaguar/IX trecena

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.
Jaguar/IX: Born with a deep love of the Mother Earth, Jaguar or shaman is directly tied to the source of all Earth magic. They possess great power of intellect and strength or character through integrity. Jaguar energy is feminine in nature and is the ruling spirit of jungles, plains, and mountains. The spirit of Jaguar inhabits the Mayan temples and is called on to assist in spiritual as well as in material ways. Jaguar is also the god/goddess of gratefulness. Patience born of strength and skill can turn to pounce of quick decision and action. Both bold and stealthful, Jaguars do not often attack directly and communications from them usually contain some mystery. In the absence of integrity, Jaguars power corrupts becoming a search for wealth and fame.
A GOOD DAY TO: Commune and give thanks to Mother Nature.
Cherokee, Panther/SAHO’NI: Panther is symbolized by comets, meteors, shooting stars, fireballs, and magicians. Meteors appearing around the middle of November are Heralds of the Coming of the Light, the Cherokee New Year. Panther is the Shadow of the Sphinx, Herald of the Dawn, guardian of the night when the sun is traveling through the underworld. Panthers have unlimited imaginations, visualizations, and are spellbinding speakers. The Totem Jaguar is the guardian of the portals to other dimensions; shamanic abilities will open; multi-dimensional magic; healer, leader, way shower energy when used for spiritual growth. Abuse would be for using this power for control or negative purposes; must find a powerful balance.
