Christmas Lights in the Forecast

SPACEWEATHER.COM NEWS: 12/23/2025

RED AIRGLOW FILLS DEATH VALLEY LAKE: Death Valley has a lake? It does now. In November, extinct Lake Manly came back to life after an atmospheric river passed over California. On Dec.11th, Chris Cook photographed its shallow water reflecting the red sky overhead:

“Located 282ft below sea level, Lake Manly is an ancient lake that fills Badwater Basin only after very heavy rains,” says Cook. “It is a rare event.”

The red light is airglow, an aurora-like phenomenon caused by chemical reactions in Earth’s upper atmosphere. Red airglow comes from hydroxyl (OH). These neutral molecules exist in a thin layer of air 85 km high where gravity waves can create a dramatic rippling structure. Indeed, those ripples are visible in Cook’s photo.

Another major atmospheric river is scheduled to pass over Death Valley this Christmas, refilling Lake Manly again. Photo-op!

ARCTIC AURORA WATCH: NOAA forecasters say that a CME launched on Dec. 20th might pass close to Earth on Dec. 24th. If it does, ripples in the solar wind could spark Arctic auroras on Christmas Eve. Travel tip: If you’re flying on a high-latitude route this week, pick the window seat.

TODAY’S SUN: Now there are 2 active Sunspots: 4317 emerged from the far side, and 4316 has awakened at the Center of the Sun. Their ‘beta-gamma’ magnetic fields harbor energy for M-class solar flares. The Solar Wind from the massive coronal hole arrives on December 24, 2025.

Mayan Calendar Time and Synchronicity

Red Airglow over Lake Manly in Death Valley (a rare event) was seen and recorded on 12/11/2025. December 11, 2025 was 10 Flint/ETZNAB, a Sign of the Truth from Above. It represents unexpected Truth we already know that sweeps the path clear and opens a Door to the Wisdom of our own experience.

The photo is posted today, the 11th Position is the Day of “God the Creator” (Monkey/CHUEN is a symbol of the Consciousness to Create.) We have a Sense of a new Reality. Master Number 11 is the symbol of the One Source and Substance of Divine Inspiration.) 11:11 is a Wakeup Call and Code of Activation. We pause when we see 11:11 for a Divine Question. If you have been seeing repeating numbers, you’ve likely asked “what does it mean?” And, then maybe “does it mean anything?” That’s the Higher Question. When God offers a Sign he wants us to know it means something. That’s One Question that becomes the answer to every other question.

Human will tries to figure out what we can’t know. What the symbols mean isn’t as important as knowing God is reaching out to make his presence known.

Genesis 1:14-19 KJV
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,

18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.

19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

There is a Time heralded by the Signs. We all search for the Signs in the Season of Christmas. I half-remember people saying, “Christmas should last throughout the year.”

The Lights are due to appear on the “Oh Holy Night.”

PRAYERS FROM THE SECOND WATCH

The next time you’re Called to Pray, refer to the 8 Watches by the Time of Day. You may discover it was the reason for your prayers. Someone somewhere else is praying. We can remember them in Divine Trinity in our Amen.

THE EIGHT WATCHES

Night Watch

First Watch: 6 pm – 9 pm – Contemplation and laying foundations in prayer.
Second Watch: 9 pm – 12 am – Intercessory prayer for protection of ourselves and those around us
Third Watch: 12 am – 3 am – Spiritual warfare
Fourth Watch: 3 am – 6 am – Prophetic prayer because you are commanding your morning with prophetic decrees and declaring God’s word

Day Watch

Fifth Watch: 6 am – 9 am – Petitions. Ask for strength and surrender. Ask for the Holy Spirit to help you before you start your day
Sixth Watch: 9 am – 12 pm – Thanksgiving prayer
Seventh Watch : 12 pm – 3 pm – This is the seventh watch of rest. 7 Biblically represents that. This is a time to seek God in the secret place

THE TRECENA OF WIND/IK: THE WEIGHT OF THE CREATOR’S WORD

THE SEASON OF ASCENSION: The Wind/IK trecena is in the 4th Season, found in VOLUME 2: Tzolk’in Seasons 3 and 4 (PUBLISHED SEPTEMBER 20, 2020)

The Lexicon Concordance is a resource for looking up the meaning of number in the Bible Codes of the Hebrew gematria.  Every letter has a numerical value that expresses the Truth written in the Word.  The Tzolk’in Calculator of Ian’s creation is a place to calculate your Mayan birthday, and to find the meaning of Time for other major events.

9 Dog/OC (Cherokee, Wolf/KANA’TI) – Day 9 of 13 of the 1 Wind/IK trecena

Descriptions by Ian Xel Lungold (12 Sun/AHAU), wisdom and Tzolk’in calculator preserved on MayanMajix.com

Galactic Tone 9: Patience. The energy of Nine is one of the getting a better perspective of the bigger picture. With the energy of Nine plans or patterns begin to come to completion. Nine requires patience and perseverance that is found in the bigger picture, otherwise there is great suffering from the lack of insight. The completion of cycles of action is all-important to Nine.

Dog/OC: Courageous, loyal and warm-hearted, very alert and valiant, people born of Dog are respected for their sense of justice and their protection. People born of the sun sign Dog are very sensual and know how to enjoy life. Playfulness and a good understanding of the basic human nature lead to prosperity for Dog. Dogs are good team players who love to travel and have a keen sense of their position in society. Dogs are ambitious and will take opportunities when they offer themselves, including infidelities. Dog persons share the nature of coyotes, spies, wolves and lawyers.

A GOOD DAY TO: Enjoy family and friends.

Cherokee, Wolf/KANA’TI: Wolf is symbolized by Sirius (Dog star) and Antares, one or the other always visible but never at the same time.  Wolf is our brother, shares our very roots.  All dogs are domesticated wolves, companionship and guidance.  Wolves are a connecting link between the worlds; ones who inspire loyalty, diplomacy and sense of humor with unlimited potential.  Wolf is the Day Sign of teachers, healers, pathfinders and transformers; sharp as obsidian, gentle as a lamb. OC-Totem –Dog:  Loyalty and faithfulness that survives beyond death.  This was the first day of creation energy in this 4th world, sets the energy for love, loyalty and faithfulness on the 5200 year cycle.  Heart chakra energy is involved so that we can move to the state of “unconditional love” with compassion.  All sexual desire issues that are not in harmony will surface to be cleared.
