While initially this may appear more appropriate to the OT List I post it here because of the many physical effects Solar Storms have on our bodies when they are directed Earthward. As many of you may know we have been hammered by a four year solar maximum since 2000, with an increase in activity since 1998. In the past this 11 year cycle has been predictable in it's one year maxiumum. Not so this time around. With megastorms as high as 45,000 photon units many scientists have called this a megacycle as long as 3,000 - 26,000 years.
The Geomagnetic Storms have effects on nerve transmission, cause headaches and flu like symptoms, low blood pressure, irritability, can cause heart attacks in compromised heart patients (CCUs are now being shielded), mental emotional brain fog and moods similar to the full moon. During this four years I have searched high and low for "remedies" or prevention for these effects. When living in Seattle, and getting more of the effects, the larger storms would flatten me, literally. I got a lot of fearful blank stares when I would ask local naturopaths and other alt health workers. One even told me she did not live in fear -- I said heck I am not afraid I just want something to stop the dang headaches -- she walked away, obviously split off and terrified of anything she did not understand, nor did she try to understand. I see the Aurora regularly here in central Texas during the stronger storms. I have seen the scintillation in the morning air during a large storm. It is a fascinating topic, this solar cycle, but also could be reflective of the many cycles that are predicted to be coinciding right now. I see many health effects but few solutions and even less discussion. I will forward NASA latest Space Weather Report. There are daily and weekly email lists that keep us informed of the state of the Sun. Also I will forward an alt newsletter that follows Earthchanges and tries to keep an objective mind about it all. Anyone else as intrigued as I am? One more story. In 1964 David Suzuki PhD called an international conference to bring the world's scientific community up to speed on the Solar Cycle. They were concerned then that they were seeing storms of 2500 photon units. There was a buzz for about a year and then everyone conspicuouly stopped talking, at all! Now we have storms of 45,000 units. Hmmm . . . and then Soho got knocked out last year during a particularly intense period so even less information on the state of the Sun.

This is a sign, say forecasters, that solar minimum is coming sooner than expected.
