30 March 2026: X1.4 Solar Flare

SpaceWeather

This X1.4 went on for almost an hour, producing that prolonged display of Solar Light ~ 3:47 to 4:44 UTC (that triple 4!):

Here's the resultant CME:

That's expected to reach us shortly:


That's one fast-moving CME:

Solar Activity: 21 - 24 March 2026

The Aurora Borealis formations have been breathtakingly beautiful and also unusual, and the one above is no exception. I specifically wanted to feature this one because it is similar to what I've been seeing when I check in on our Sun. 

Spheres would emerge (not necessarily from our Sun, because Cosmic stuff is now coming in from everywhere) and radiate these ray-like beams outwards, with colours similar to the ones depicted by the above Aurora Borealis. Although these colours are stunning, the ones emitted by the spheres look and feel "alive", as I've mentioned several times before. Also, aqua hues were present.

We've had some surges of Solar storms over the past few days, with noticeably increased intensity of energy shifts. Adequate hydration and electrolytes greatly help with assimilation.

So, that was why it was impossible to fall asleep 🙄 I'll call this the March Equinox Storm.

3I/Atlas Perijove

Ray's Astrophotography

Update 19 March 2026:
For clarity, because there's been some confusion, Ray is referring to the entire coma size, not only the nucleus.


It's been a while since I posted about our Interstellar Visitor, and since it is now at perijove, I thought I should make amends by at least featuring it.

Here's Ray with some data about 3I/Atlas' possible size. He's briefly mentioned it before, positing that its size is far bigger than officially given estimates. In this video, Ray takes images of both Earth and 3I/Atlas at 0.44 AU, and comparing them:

My initial question is whether both images are at the same zoom/magnification level so as to make the comparison valid. Then I remind myself that Ray is the Astronomer with the relevant expertise, so of course he knows what he's doing. Even assuming that the zoom/magnification levels are not properly matched, a visual estimate places 3I/Atlas to be at least the size of Earth.

Something of at least that size....we can only imagine what sort of effects have been created within our Solar System as our Visitor speeds across.

The Most Magnificent Journey ~ Peace Love and Coffee

Peace Love and Coffee

When the external becomes deafeningly loud with depraved adults on the world stage, what we manifest in our individual Light Bubble becomes even more crucial, and our inner Journey is no longer a choice but compulsory.

We journey back to ourselves. In this profound silence within, we find our true strength ~ a power that does not need to shout or be loud. 

And from here, we embody and hold Peace, each in our own Light Bubble. 

Namarie!  💗
