‘Night Streaker’ is my name for this beautiful… awe filled sight. A fireball streaks by Orion through the night sky. Glorious displays lighting up the skies all over the world. Thank you Beloved Creator, thank you!

The American Meteor Society says it has had 45 separate fireballs reported to them so far in 2009. There were 40 fireballs reported during the month of January in 2008. In the last 90 days there have been sightings in: California, Sweden, New Zealand, Middle East, Canada, Africa, Argentina, Vancouver B.C., Colorado, West Virginia, Washington, Oregon, Arizona, Ireland, Brazil, China… more.

January 19 – Fireball in Southern California
January 19, 2009 5:33pm PST a brilliant fireball was reported by over 24 people from California, Nevada and Arizona. It was reported to be as bright as the full moon magnitude -13.

January 17 – Fireball in Sweden

January 17, 2009 19:09 UT, a beautiful brilliant blue sky was Creator’s gift as a fireball lit the night in Scandinavia. It exploded with a rumbling boom. The photo is from a video. You can see videos, read reports and articles at TV2 ØST or SpaceWeather.com Scandinavian Fireball.

My thoughts…

Are there more fireballs? It seems like there are more sightings… but maybe we are just gazing at the sky more… aware… looking… waiting for something. When we see something we gasp in wonder, point and say, ‘oh ah… amazing, glorious!’ or ‘ah oh… doom and gloom!’ Are these sightings apocalyptic? Are they signs of the end?

I see them a signs… wonderful signs of change. More of Creator’s gifts and blessings. Messages to get our attention… they say, ‘Stop for a moment, watch… pause… breathe… Be’. When we are awe filled, in appreciation and wonder we are One… and in that moment we begin to feel and recognize our Oneness.

All of the glorious blessings Creator showers upon us daily are signs of change. Signs of the ending of old ways which no longer work. Like the snake sloughing off of old skin to be renewed or the phoenix being consumed by fire then reborn from its’ own ash. Not end as in death or cataclysm… but end of a cycle. Now we are reborn into our full glory and majesty… as we were originally intended to be.

Now is the cycle or yuga of Light… 2,000 years of Peace. Christ has come… Buddha is here… it is Us… we are That! The waiting is over… today is 2012… the time we’ve been waiting for is NOW. It is not about a timeline or calendar date… it is about raising and changing consciousness. We have fully embraced ourselves, climbed the mountain and are standing on the peak saying, ‘Who am I? Where am I? What am I?’.

Now we remake ourselves. From this moment… do all with joy. Remake yourself into what you have always dreamed. Create! This is the Grace of NOW!

Be the glorious greatness that you are my friend. Love from the depths of your being … everything… all. Rejoice!

Light Beam in Aspen

‘Light beam’ photo by Thomas O’Brien

‘Light beam’ is my name for these amazing photographs. A second sun floats just above the tree tops beaming Light to earth. It looks like a being of light floating above and behind the trees. An amazing gift and wonderful display. Images taken in Aspen, Colorado January 3, 2009 by Thomas O’Brien.

Thomas says about the images,

‘I had been seeing small sun reflections in the ground all day when riding the lifts last Sunday so i decided to hike around on the backside of the mountain to see if i could find a brighter one. it was incredibly hard to photograph, it was like i was shooting directly into 2 suns at once. getting a shot without lens flare was nearly impossible. I had seen much dimmer ones before but this one was incredible. ‘

Atmospheric Optics expert Les Cowley reports, “It is exactly like shooting into two suns at once because it is a subsun, a direct reflection of the sun by millions of ice crystals acting as mirrors. The crystals are flat plates drifting in the cold air. Subsuns can be blindingly bright, look for them while skiing or when flying.”

Ice Flowers in Arkansas

‘Ice Flowers’ photo by Chyenne Morning Star

On January 16, 2009 Chyenne went outside her home in Edgemont, Arkansas and was greeted by these lovely ribbons of luminous ice. One is a heart. Everywhere… reminders of Creator’s Love. Mother and Father Creators showering blessings upon us. It is glorious. Thanks so much Chyenne for sharing this wonderful photo with us.

Chyenne says of the image,

Every now and then in the midst of Winter when the ground is of one color and the trees are bare, She, Mother Winter will gift us with little luminous beings of ice called Ice Flowers. And particularly when one is shaped as a heart, it is a message. A message from our Mother, the Earth and our Nature sisters and brothers telling us they love us. When I went out to get wood on this January 16, 2009 morning, I noticed these beautiful beings. I have never seen them before – or in our area. They are called Ice Flowers and only form in perfect conditions. It is rare to see them here. They were scattered over the yard. It is one of those gifts in the middle of Winter that really surprises us with another beautiful life form being. These Ice Flowers are sometimes called Rabbit Frost and are formed when the sap freezes and expands in the stem, causing long thin cracks to form along the stem. The water that is drawn through these cracks freezes immediately upon contact with the air. Thin layers of ice are pushed from the stems,causing the formation of ribbons or ‘petals.

The photo was featured on the home page of SpaceWeather.com on January 18. They say of the image:

Scientists have been studying the ice flower phenomenon for almost two hundred years. Botanists, physicists, geologists–all have puzzled over the fragile ribbons of ice that wrap themselves around the stems of some plants during winter. Over time, the following consensus has emerged: Liquid water from deep soil flows up into the stems. Linear cracks in the stems expose the water to freezing air. Water turns to ice, and the ice extrudes from the cracks in thin sheets.

There is also a wonderful video of ice flowers at youtube. So amazing… another wonderful display. Thank you beloved Creator, thank you.

Frozen Wave… Strange Weather

‘Frozen wave’ by Tony Travouillon, Anarctica

‘Frozen wave’ is my name for this amazing photo taken by scientist Tony Travouillon in Antarctica. That little dark speck is a person… what an awesome sight. Thank you again beloved Creator for this awe inspiring sight. Many other images can be seen in a gallery on Travouillon’s website.

The weather certainly has been erratic lately. Has it seemed strange to you too?

Here is what the Weather Channel reports:

January 16, 2009 – record low temperatures were set in 13 states. Plus there’s a new record low for the state of Maine – Big Black River -50 degrees F. The old record low is -48 degrees at Van Buren, Maine, January 19, 1925. For more on this see weather.com.

January 16, 2009 – Jeff Mielcarz, Road Crew Host weather blog… “Talk about a roller coaster ride! On Thursday January 15th, the low in Bismarck, ND was minus -44 degrees, while the high in Los Angeles, CA was 85. THAT’S A 129 DEGREE DIFFERENCE over 1,600 miles by car! At 10am eastern on Friday January 16th the temperature in Pensacola, FL is the same as it is in Fairbanks, AK at 31 degrees. Here’s the key though, when you factor in the wind … it FEELS ten degrees colder in Florida this morning. …In Alaska low temperature LAST Wednesday (January 7) was -46, while their high this PAST Wednesday (January 14) was 44. That’s a 90 degree swing in one week!

January 8, 2009 – Dr. Greg Forbes, Severe Weather Expert weather blog reports “heavy rains have ended in Western Washington, but massive river flooding continues…”

January 6, 2009 – Stu Ostro, Senior Meteorologist weather blog records broken, “From white to wet – The 61.5″ total snow accumulation in Spokane in December was a record for any month, and there has been another 16.6″ during the first week of January; Seattle had ~14″ in December compared with an average of 2.5″; and 22″ fell in Portland where the average annual snowfall is 5.2″.

This is just in the USA. Weather worldwide is strange too.

My thoughts…

Weather can’t make up it’s mind… cold – warm – cold – frigid… humm is this a message? A sign? It is global warming? Or perhaps the next ice age?

Maybe it is about consciousness… what we focus on becomes our reality. Some folks believe one thing… some another. Now more then ever large groups of people are focusing their thoughts on global warming… or the other extreme massive cooling. Many people are fearful. Fear is simply an emotion… but a powerful one. Take an idea, internalize it and back it by strong emotion… and it manifests.

The Law of Manifestation states, “Suggestion is the generator behind all operations and manifestations in the material world, and these manifestations cannot happen until suggestion hits the subconscious mind and is ‘taken in’ by the subconscious mind. An act, objector event, begins with a mental impression of suggestion in the mind, impregnated by emotions until it is exteriorized; a normal function law is used in hypnotherapy, mental telepathic healing, destructive brainwashing cults and visualization.~’The Donning International Encyclopedic Psychic Dictionary’ by June G. Bletzer, Ph.D.

We are manifesting our beliefs… thoughts… desires… collectively. So a tug of war of sorts is occurring… as one group manifests global warming and another global cooling.

Imagine what our world could be like with a collective vision… peace, balance, health, happiness, equality, and prosperity for everyone… all life. Amazing Indeed!

Sun orb?

On January 16, 2009 MacGyver took this interesting photo of sundogs in Chicago, IL. What is that pink ball and arc near the sun? It looks 3 dimensional. Is it a camera flare? Some other mechanical anomaly? Or maybe it’s an energy orb? WOW! You can see a larger version at Weather.com.

So many wonderful gifts from Creator. Space Weather has photos of diamond dust ice halos and/or sundogs from 6 different photographers today (January 17, 2009). Plus the Weather Channel featured one on it’s home page. Baby it’s cold outside!

Chris Haws from Faribault, MN captured another Creator’s Wheel (ice halo and sundogs)January 13, 2009. He says, “It was a very cold morning, -20 degrees F, with a fine mist of ice crystals floating in the air,” he says. “The sundogs were magnificent, truly almost false suns.” Awesome!

Mark D. Marquette from Boones Creek, TN took the photo left of ‘Frozen Flora’ on January 13, 2009. He says, “A Tuesday morning fog and 21 degree temperatures caused some of the atmosphere to freeze out, as water vapor took icy form in East Tennessee. The Sun burned off the beautiful scene by 11 am–and I sure am grateful I can set my own work hours! I enjoyed capturing this rare sight in Dixie.” How beautiful! I’ve never seen frozen fog before.
