2014 - Wood year ruled by Fire

[Gerard]

Here is an example of how things are going to be like in 2014:

 

 

 

 

Northern Lights illuminate the UK

 

Gaia's Wood/Hun 'spirit' rising up with its Fire/Shen element (Heart-Mind consciousness).

 

They are intimately related to each other (mother and child) and when in harmony and completely purified lead to the state of enlightenment when the conditions are right.

 

A great year for serious spiritual work.

We have been having a somewhat unexpected weaker and erratic solar cycle for the current solar cycle which started around 2008, but we are supposed to be somewhere in the vicinity of the maximum of the current solar cycle (solar cycle 24), or apparently so they estimate. They can't tell for sure when we hit the maximum until sometime after the fact however. Solar flares occur the most frequently at the maximum of a solar sunspot cycle, and M class or higher class solar flares cause lots of aurora borealis, which we call the northern lights up here in the northern hemisphere. Apparently it is called aurora australis or southern lights, down under.

 

Some info on a big sun spot currently on the sun that has been affecting us recently by causing some recent large x class solar flares. This same sunspot is coming around the sun towards the earth and can start affecting us again next week. This may possibly cause some nice aurora next week again in more northern and southern regions.

I think Gerard's images were only meant to illustrate astrological situation, not the astronomical ;-)

 

And they do a good job of it! :-)

Northern Lights in the UK??

Looks like London's burning! Glad I live by the river

Funny some people say tides on the sun dont matter, but the collective amplification or retardation provided by planetary movement winds up being the smaller changes in duration of the solar cycle. Right now it is retarding, and the sunspot funk of recent years is the reason why the polar vortex was amplified much more than normal these past couple years. We're about due to have the second half of the sun's magnetism flip, one hemisphere flipped a couple years ago. We should be on our way to getting solid clues about the next cycle, which by what I've read it doesnt appear to look good, if the field strength drops too much further, back to no-sunspot land we go.

 

Of course since we dont have a complete and predictive solar model, that basically means long term climate predictions on earth are going to continue to be a joke for some time.

 

Not sure how all that plays into the wood year being ruled by fire, though

Hi soaring crane. Various sources state the sun is supposed to be a strong source of etheric or cosmic energy, not only physical energy. From this point of view, the sun's physical cycles and activity may translate to some extent to the etheric or spiritual level, just as physical cycles of full moons and new moons, and physical positioning of planets, etc. are also supposed to have such effects. Everything is connected.

Now doubt, but Gerard's OP was specifically addressing the 60-year Chinese astrology cycle. It's a powerful combination. The full force will be felt in summer.

 

But what you're posting is just as interesting, thank you :-)

Any indication what kind of 'full force' is implied? Sounds ominous, but maybe you meant something different.
