That came in at X1.9....

SpaceWeather explains that there wasn't an associated CME but it did trigger a filament, and that might produce a CME:

X1.27 Flare & SR: 17 & 18 June 2025

SpaceWeather

Our Sun gave off an X1.27-flare today (my time) but no apparent CME was observed. There was another smaller flare that quickly followed this one, and the dazzling image above shows the double flash.

Not much activity happening on the SR chart, so the two blackout periods look quite out of place:

On another note, I have yet to get to Part 2 of an earlier post, I haven't forgotten....

Solar Stuff & Energy Tune-In ~ 22-25 May 2025

SpaceWeather

We had an X1.1 flare earlier today ~ the prediction was for an inactive weekend Solar-wise so this was another surprise much like the previous X-flares before this.  SpaceWeather reports:

OUT OF NOWHERE, AN X-FLARE: The forecast called for quiet. Instead, the sun produced an X1.1-class solar flare on May 25th (0152 UTC). X marks the spot in this extreme ultraviolet image from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (image above).

That's a perfect cross there!

25 May 2025

I will now backtrack to this morning. I felt some very strong frequencies coming from our Sun so I peered at it to see if I could spot anything. I didn't see anything unusual but I still dutifully got my phone out in case I had missed something. Turns out I missed a lot! 

What on Earth....?! I have no idea what was going on and again, my physical eyes did not see all those formations around our Sun. It certainly felt that there was a whole lot of stuff happening, and I did get a sense that it's Timeline-related.

Shortly thereafter, I went through the usual sites to check for Solar activity and that's when I saw that an X-class flare had occurred, at 01:52 UTC. When I took the photo above, it was 02:12 UTC. The flare was so new, I wasn't able to find any image or news about it apart from the live data chart from Laboratory of Solar Astronomy, SRI RAS.

I went back to peer at our Sun again, took a photo and got this:

Again, it felt intensely busy, which is also reflected energetically by the photo. It still felt very Timeline-related. In addition, it looks to me like there's another Sun behind our Sun. I am vaguely aware that there's information of "bigger" and higher frequency Sun(s?) connecting to our Sun in the Ascension process but I do not have adequate knowledge of this to comment further. I also do not know if the photo does indeed show another Sun or whether it's just some unusual lens effect ~ I've seen this before in some of the photos I've taken previously.

 

22 May 2025

I will backtrack again, this time to Thursday 22 May 2025. That was when I felt as if a strong force of energy had come into our Planetary environment. When I tried to tune into the energy, I saw the usual stunningly gorgeous Emerald and Aqua hues....and something else. Lilac. It was so beautiful I don't know how to describe it. It was alive, dynamic, utterly magnificent. I was in awe of this Lilac, but had the ridiculously human thought of wanting my walls to be this colour. It was also ephemeral ~ the visual did not last long, and I have not seen it since then.

It's only now as I type this that I realise I had written something about Lilac ~ here. I had forgotten about the post prior to this moment, and I don't know if there is any connection ~ I have no further information about it at this point in time. 

The Next Two Weeks

It's getting near impossible to talk about the intensity of the energies and frequencies because the theme is "it was intense last week and this week it's gotten even more intense" and so on. It's been "intense" for a few years now, and 2025 has been beyond bonkers. And yet here I am saying, let's watch out for the next couple of weeks because it feels like a significant period.

Earlier this month I wrote about a Time Passage, and I feel that the coming weeks are related to that. 

I also suggest ~ if it feels right and if it aligns with you ~ that we do what we can in our own way to anchor the current tranche of energies into our own location. Our own jurisdiction, so to speak. Thank you 💝

TWO X-Class Flares

The Sun Today

Aaaaaand....as if to prove to us that our Sun has still been busy with activities that are not Earth-facing, we got not one but two X-class flares within a 24-hour period. This time facing Earth, but only just! X1.2 and X2.7. It's as if we were given a couple of Solar Winks 😄

© Laboratory of Solar Astronomy, SRI RAS

SpaceWeatherLive notes the irony:

This is the first X-class event since March this year and it is very unexpected as there was only a 1% chance of X-class activity today!  

Several CMEs were also produced during this time period but they are not Earth-facing, as per SpaceWeather:

SO FAR THE CMEs ARE MISSING EARTH: A fusillade of strong explosions from sunspot 4087 hurled multiple CMEs into space today. So far none of the CMEs appears to be heading for Earth. We are just outside the sunspot's strike zone. This could change in the days ahead as the active region turns to face our planet.

An example is this one:

Anniversary: May 2024 Storms & X-Flares

SpaceWeather

One year ago the world was treated to stunning displays of Aurora Borealis when we had massive geomagnetic storms, to the extent that they even appeared in locations not normally associated with these gorgeous Sky Paintings. As SpaceWeather reports, they appeared on all seven continents:

ONE YEAR AGO--AN HISTORIC GEOMAGNETIC STORM: Do you remember where you were one year ago today? Wherever it was, there were probably auroras overhead. On May 10-11, 2024, an extreme geomagnetic storm sparked auroras over all seven continents and almost every country on Earth. Sightings in the South Pacific and Africa confirm the event was a true Great Storm.

And SpaceWeatherLive reminds us of the intensity of those storms:

The Kp-index reached Kp9 which equals the rare and elusive Extreme G5 geomagnetic storm threshold.

SpaceWeatherLive

And here's something I recently learnt:

E'Asha Ashayana KDDL3

Just a few days before those storms, Planetary activations appropriately called Aurora Flame-1 were running, from 8 - 10 May 2024. 

I would also need to mention that May 2024 charted a mind-boggling tally of 22 X-class flares! (Details here.)

 

 

Coming back to the current time. It would seem that there's been very little Solar activity in past weeks, with the absence of any major flares or intense storms. Not quite so ~ our Sun has indeed been busy delivering frequencies but the focus has been on other Planets and not Earth. Looks like we received our fair share in 2024 so it's the turn of other Ascending Planets in our Solar System. An example of a humongous CME on 12 May 2025, not facing Earth:

28 March 2025: X1.1 Flare

© Laboratory of Solar Astronomy, SRI RAS

 

This unexpected X-class flare has generated a lot of excitement! Although it came in at only X1.1, the fact that it's been quiet (so far) this year compared with the extreme Solar activity of 2024 made this quite a big thing.

This relatively modest flare produced what looks like a humongous CME:

It does seem like more X-class flares are expected in the coming days.

 

Namarie! 💖

PS. Prayers for all affected by the Sagaing earthquake 🙏

X2.03

Laboratory of Solar Astronomy, SRI RAS

We had an X2.03 flare in the late hours (UTC) yesterday. There was a humongous related CME but it's not Earth-facing:

Some strong buffeting predicted in the coming days:

Three More!

Laboratory of X-ray Astronomy of the Sun, Russia

We've had another trio of X-class flares in the past 48 hours, with a brief period of geomagnetic activity just now:

Laboratory of X-ray Astronomy of the Sun, Russia

 

So that's a trio of X-flares closing out 2024, and another trio of X-flares in the first week of 2025.

And look at our Sun, all lit up:

Three X-Flares

SpaceWeather

Solar siesta ended on 29 December with an X1.1, followed by a double X-flare the next day (X1.1 & X1.5).

Laboratory of X-ray Astronomy of the Sun, Russia

The double X-flares are the ones shown in the gif above, and this is what SpaceWeather says:

This morning's X1.5-class eruption (0414 UTC) was so strong it triggered a secondary blast in sunspot 3932 more than 200,000 km away.

All three X-flares occurred within a 24-hour period:

X1.1 on 29th @07:08:00 UTC

X1.5 on 30th @04:01:00 UTC

X1.1 on 30th @04:29:00 UTC.

"Impulsive" X2.2

The Sun Today

It was a quiet two weeks on the Solar-front, but around 5 December 2024 we started to see some small sizzles registering on the chart, growing more active until the X2.2 on 8 December 2024.

Laboratory of X-ray Astronomy of the Sun, Russia

SpaceWeather called the burst "impulsive" (read here).

The ensuing CME isn't Earth-facing:

  ....but it does look like Mercury and Mars are both in the line of Cosmic Fire:

An X2.03 Closes Off October

SpaceWeather

Unsurprisingly, October bookended its potent run with X-class flares. An X2.03 burst onto the scene on the last day of the month but no CME is expected:

Laboratory of X-ray Astronomy of the Sun, Russia

At this time of writing, it's still pre-noon UTC 1 November ~ let's see if there's any high Solar activity to greet this month.

October was certainly....interesting.

About Another X-Class Flare & Two Comets....

SpaceWeather

This X1.8 flared hot on the heels of an M9.5 on 26 October 2024. 

Laboratory of X-ray Astronomy of the Sun, Russia

 

Look at that humongous CME that followed:

SpaceWeather

It's largely not facing Earth ~ seems like Venus is getting the attention for this one. 

SpaceWeather

Let's turn to the Comets now ~ first up, the one dubbed "Comet of the Century" Comet A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS. Space.com shows its dazzling tail as it passes our Sun:

Space.com

I'll show another still of this event towards the end of this post. There's also a video clip of this comet as it makes its way across the sky (here).

Next we have this Sungrazer (C/2024 S1) approaching our Sun (lower right):

SpaceWeather

I'll be checking for updated footage in the following days as it flies into our Sun.

For the final resource, here's a video by MrMB333. Apart from the gorgeous Aurora Borealis performance, the video also features Comet A3 as it passes our Sun (around 2:18-minute mark), right as the CME was firing off (I'll refer to this in a later post):

MrMBB333

The video's main feature of the "rings" in the sky is also fascinating (4:50-minute mark).

So much happening....
