Auroras Seen in More then 30 States
SPACEWEATHER.COM NEWS: 07/04/2026
STRONG GEOMAGNETIC STORM–NOW! A strong G3-class geomagnetic storm is underway as Earth passes through the wake of a CME that struck on July 3rd. Observers in more than 30 US states are reporting auroras–some mixed with 4th of July fireworks.
This iPhone photo taken by Dave. N of Santa Fe County, New Mexico, shows auroras as far south as latitude +36N:
We’ve also received reports from California, Utah, Colorado, Oregon, Nevada, Arizona–and almost every northern-tier state near the US Canadian border.
Observers in rural areas with dark skies are favored. If you don’t see anything with your unaided eye, point your smartphone at the northern horizon and take a nighttime exposure. You might be surprised at what it reveals!

Mayan Calendar Time and Synchronicity
4 Night/AKBAL represents the Dream of Life that the Father Intended to be. AKBAL is the Voice that speaks in our “dark nights” and the “Dreamer who believes in the Dream”. On Night/AKBAL we’re given the vision to see the Light Beyond the Veil.
July 4th Auroras could be the backdrop of a fireworks display… a spectacle that draws our attention to the Light Above and Light Below.

7 Night/AKBAL (Cherokee, Hearth/O’YA) – Day 7 of 13 of the 1 Earth/CABAN trecena

Galactic Tone 7: Reflective; 7 stands as the mirror to divide light and dark and reflect all that is and is not. 7 is associated with the source of creation and the flow of divine will. 7 establishes the purpose to current and future goals.
Night/Akbal: Bringers of the Dawn. Dreamers who bring the new sun to clarify and illuminate the road of life. Thus the insecurities and doubts born of darkness of the sub-conscious mind are dispelled. These persons travel the Void… a place where nothing yet exists but all potential dwells, the womb of creation. From this void, Night persons bring forth new solutions and artistic inspiration. Night’s voyages of dreams build confidence and happiness with a sense of well being. If night does not bravely journey into the void they may find themselves wandering the darkness of self doubt and insecurity.
A GOOD DAY TO: Spend some time contemplating the stars.
Cherokee, Hearth/O’YA: Hearth’s symbol is the fire pit in the Center, velvet black as the night. The triangle in Orion. The M42 nebula (home of the Central race from the WingMakers) in the center of the triangle of Orion is the fire in the Hearth, also matching the Mayan. The Hearth is the Torchbearer who holds the light and warmth throughout the night.
