Re: New Data shows the Solar magnetic field may not have finished it's flip for the current cycle.
Here is some gong data.
[link to gong.nso.edu]

What we expect when the pole flip is complete is the sun spots will move closer to the poles.

They don't seem to be in any hurry to go that way, but the magnetic field looks more like a dipole than it has in months.

There have been some interesting developments with the sun this week.

After the X1.6 cme impact we had a few days of anomalous protons spikes.

Over the last few weeks we have seen the neutron pressure actually overtake the solar wind protons and push them back towards the sun.

This caused the solar wind to bunch up, leading to some large, but brief proton spikes.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 62693101



That's what I could imagine it to be, if we're talking about higher dimensionality descending into our realms. It seems to me a energetical/ physical manifestation of the dual~principle searching its way back to oneness, while being dual at the same time. The poles are dancing, to find the breakthrough~point..

Thread: Two Suns ~ T h e o r y And Thoughts About The Symbolism.

Just wanted to share some thoughts with you...

My mind came to duality stuff and how everything in life has its two sided. You know, the double-helix, black and white etc...
Most basic example maybe: A simple coin.
Let´s think of this coin and take a look at it.
But before we do, we consider that it can be seen as a symbology for everything in life. Day to day experiences, may it be meeting a stranger in town, basically duality is what this world is based upon and it makes itself felt into everything we encounter in this life.
So back to the coin again... We can only look at one side of it at a time. We cannot look at both sides at once. Well, we could, but that would need some tricks. A mirror for example. Or a photograph. But that is not an exact image of reality. When we would look at it through the mirror, we would see it the wrong way round and we would have to figure this out in first instance. In terms of our relations with each other, we would have to figure out that our perception of the other person can be and most likely will be blurred because of our limited perspectives. Our "one side at a time-perspective" so to speak. A mirror or a photograph can be deceiving, as also the direct impression can be. This is technical stuff that functions as a bridge for our incapability for us, but these tools require specific awareness to the topic and tiny details. Basically what I want to make clear by this example is, that we are simply incapable to have the full perception of the real situation, or let´s call it „the full reality“. This is what duality was made for in a way, the construct of limitation was build that way, to make progress possible, to have questions and find answers in ever new ways.

So when we take this analogy to another level, we can look at our planet earth and what do we have here again. One half in the dark, the other in the light. There it is again, the ever repeating pattern.
I know not everyone here agress with this higher dimensional stuff and goind into higher dimensions. Basically this is a term for us, when we don't have the right words to describe such a thing properly. Much if not most of this stuff has been flooded, misunderstood or misused by egodriven people. Not always consciously with bad intentions. But some of these „teachings“ are just too screwed, one has to avoid much crap to get to the core of knowledge that matters. Nevertheless of how you think about it, I would bet you, if you were put back in the state of awareness of let´s say 5 years ago, you would find yourself wondering about what has been happening since then. Anyway...
Back to the „planet example“...
There has been much talk about a wandering star, entering our solar-system.
Then I remember an article stating that a binary sun system would in fact be the norm and our sun system would rather be an exception to the rule. All kinds of stuff related to that like „Jupiter ignition“ it should become a second sun. So there seems to be a deeper understanding or a foreshadow surfacing from the deep within.

The point I wanna make can be summarized to the answer of this question:
What would a second sun cause in our solar system ?
It would illuminate us from both sides.
This is an analogy for being able to see the „full spectrum of reality“.
When both sides are illuminated, the dark disappers, because it is no longer needed and doesn´t help us to progress any further. It is symbolical for an internal process.
When we have overcome the dark spot, the darkness, there will only be light left. When both sides are in the light, they are the same, and so they become one side.
Duality merging together, melting so to speak.

What we didn´t understand before, because we were perceiving us to be sitting at one side at a time, wanting to have a look at the other side, we will see us sitting at both sides at a time. That can also be seen as sitting in front of ourselves, when the curtain lifts.

5a

damned

Music please.

Nice. A topic I like to talk about is Jupiter ignition.

We only experience one, but there are always two flows of energy.

I like to look at it like this.

The sun is moving around the galactic center.
The interstellar space is not empty, but has a charged plasma from the galaxy.
This comes at us like waves in the ocean as we travel around the galactic center.

We can track this with cosmic ray neutrons.
[link to neutronm.bartol.udel.edu]

The increased neutron pressure changes the dynamic of the sun.

So the less solar activity, the more neutrons and enter the solar system.

We don't really have a way to know how long this process will last, we just have some historical evidence that shows what happened last time sun spot numbers were low.

It's called the Maunder Minimum, or The Mini Ice Age.

But without trying to add hype, there are many variables.
All I can really say is the sun is acting odd, and I watch it closely. All signs point to the solar system and the earth are changing.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 62693101


I think an Ice age is coming.
 Quoting: Apollo Far-Darter


I do too... I was not expecting a pinned thread, but I do like to talk about it.

I just don't like to get people all hyped up.
Try to separate my observational data comments from my speculative data comments.

To address your other comment... why has the sun changed color, that I think had more to do with the weakening magnetic field on the earth.

So really you have to start talking magnetic pole flip on earth.

I expected some big event from the sun would trigger the poles to flip on earth.

We are starting to see this happen.

I have seen the earth take much larger than a X1.6 flare, and handle it better. X1.6 is nothing. Imagine a X45, which would actually be a Z class flare on the new scale.

Change is at out door step.

The way the weather mixes has changed.
We are not seeing the normal flow from west to east, we are seeing temperatures mixing from the poles to the equator.

So the polar vortex will drive much colder air further south, while at the same time warm air will make it further north.

I will be shocked if people are still talking about global warming after this winter.

The previous data point was a value of 6. It dropped back down to 3 indicating it could go negative again. We are expecting it to be moving in the other direction.

Quadpole

Prediction
Before the quadrupole behavior was observed to be temporary, Japanese scientists thought that the Sun’s quadrupole behavior might be long-term and compared such a long-term arrangement with the so-called Maunder Minimum or Little Ice Age on Earth. We know, at least for cycle 23, that the quadrupole reverted to a dipole, but even if it hadn’t, this kind of comparison is dangerous. The Little Ice Age apparently lasted from 1430 to 1850, but there’s no clear start point or stop point: it could have lasted 250 years or 400 years, and there’s no knowledge about whether the cold period is being followed by an equal period of heat, or a period twice or three times that of the cold, because we’re in the middle of it. It’s wise to follow Carl Sagan’s advice about a posteriori or "after the fact" correlations. How many similar correlations can be made? The more that can be made the worse off for any primary correlation.

Other cycles have been as short as nine years and as long as 14 years. 11.5 year cycle is an average. This is nothing that unusual and certainly not unprecedented, some like to exaggerate any slight variations and twist it into some kind of doom scenario.

Re: New Data shows the Solar magnetic field may not have finished it's flip for the current cycle.
I knew it wasn't done. Sol has a few more tricks yet. 5 stars.

Nothing to see here, move along.

The current prediction for Sunspot Cycle 24 gives a smoothed sunspot number maximum of about 70 in late 2013. The smoothed sunspot number reached 75.4 in November 2013) so the official maximum will be at least this high. The smoothed sunspot number has been rising again towards this second peak over the last five months and has now surpassed the level of the first peak (66.9 in February 2012). Many cycles are double peaked but this is the first in which the second peak in sunspot number was larger than the first. We are currently over five years into Cycle 24. The current predicted and observed size makes this the smallest sunspot cycle since Cycle 14 which had a maximum of 64.2 in February of 1906.

Clearly the cycles are changing.

This link puts cosmic rays up against the solar cycles back to 1960. It is not as up to date as I would like.

I looked into getting the swarm data yesterday.

It is still early into their mission.
You can request access to the data, but they don't have any data tools for real time modeling of the earths magnetic field.

The are some US sites that do have some data.

The SPIDR site also holds the cosmic ray data.
I have not played with the site much, but may be a good tool for when the Bartol site does not have data... Like now.
