March 22, 2012 --- COMING SOLAR FLARE? & WHERE ARE THE EARTHQUAKES?

HELLO READERS,

   Well now. Lets update earthquakes. It does appear that pressures are still building from the Southern Hemisphere, towards the Northern Hemisphere. I really expected a few more 4.0-5.0 quakes as of now, but I guess my theory has an entire month still to pan out for these size quakes. Remember April 23-June 23 will be the two months to watch for 5.0-6.0 quakes, in areas that are not so use to them.

   Now on to the DANGER. As my regular readers know, there is a certain region of the Sun that has been having very dangerous solar flares and CME blasts since Christmas Day. Yes, three cycles of the Sun and each time this same region has had very frequent activity. Over the last several days on the far side of the Sun, this same area featuring Sunspot 1429, has had two significant CME blasts. The lastest one was a possible baseline X-class, but the one posted on Spaceweather.com this last Sunday, was very very large. I would presume a X-5, or maybe even a X-8.

   So what is the deal? Okay. It is very evident that planet alignment does have some effect on the Sun and its activity. Although this region of the Sun has been active towards us for nearly 3 months now, only two weeks ago was one of my two key planets in the picture. Mercury. This little metallic planet, very dense, has a not so good effect on the Sun. When the Sun has an active region, it tends to have the largest flares, near its closest point with Mercury.

  So our key right now is..... we are directly aligned with Mercury and the Sun. Can we get far enough out of alignment with Mercury, before the dangerous 1429 region on the Sun comes back around to face Earth?
It seems we could be far enough out of alignment by April 3. We will be within reach of the dangerous region on the Sun beginning April 4th or 5th. Mercury is only an enhancer for a slightly marginal increase. It is completely possible this very active region could send us a life changing event and then go on to blast Mercury as well. Be on high alert the first week of April, and let this guide your alertness for the second week in April. Visit Spaceweather.com during this time for current updates.
