Your Color VIbe for 07/18

Thursday, July 18:     Rose Purple

This is a day for being strong in WHO you are.  There are many challenges about today, and they are not merely limited to one area.  Step back from it all, and observe.  Each challenge brings with it a message of what is going on outside you and how those things are attempting to influence you in one way or another.  As the challenges come, go within and take a new perspective.  This is not a good time for seeing things from a narrow point of view.  As the pattern takes shape, more and more pieces are being added.  In order to get a better sense of what is forming in the pattern, you need to move back, to see more.  Remember the tale of the blind men and the elephant! (Here’s a link if you want to check it out:  http://www.jainworld.com/literature/story25.htm)  Tis can be a great day of celebration, as your new perspective brings along with it some well deserved ah-ha’s!

Your 7/17 Color Vibe

Wednesday, July 17:    Red Orange

This is a day for records in many areas.  These can include your own abilities, activities, etc.  You can be surprised by just what you can do.  All of this is a reminder of just that – that you are powerful.  It is time to accept that fact and allow yourself to step into your power.  This will involve some work with centering, grounding, and allowing.  It is time to know that you are part of All, and as such, you can accomplish whatever you so desire.  Manifestation is merely a process of allowing the energetic vibrations of your own heart directed power to take form in this 3D world.  You need to open yourself to that deep inner knowing of your own core that says I AM.  This statement is an affirmation of your connectedness and your capability.  It needs to come form the deepest areas within, from the core of the heart, from the point of connection with the Universal Consciousness.  Vision and visions are changing.

June Weather Data

From Dr. Jeff Masters of  Wunderground:

June 2013 was the 15th warmest June in the contiguous U.S. since record keeping began in 1895, said NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) in their latest State of the Climate report. Six Southwest U.S. states had a top-ten warmest June on record, and no states recorded a significantly below-average June for temperatures. Over three times as many record warm highs and lows occurred than record cold highs and lows during June. For the year-to-date period January – June, both temperature and precipitation over the contiguous U.S. have been above normal, ranking in the upper 33% and 23% of years, respectively.

According to NOAA’s U.S. Climate Extremes Index (CEI), which tracks the percentage area of the contiguous U.S. experiencing top-10% and bottom-10% extremes in temperature, precipitation, and drought, June extremes were about 10% below average, and the year-to-date period January – June 2013 has been 20% below average.

Wet June on the East Coast raises hurricane flood risk
It was a very June for the contiguous U.S., ranking as the 13th wettest June since 1895. New Jersey and Delaware had their wettest June on record, and sixteen other eastern states had a top-ten wettest June. The very wet June has brought some of the highest soil moisture levels ever recorded for July along much of the coast from Florida to Maine, increasing the chances of extreme flooding should this region receive a hit from a tropical storm or hurricane during the coming peak months of hurricane season. The latest 2-week forecast from the GFS model keeps the East Coast under a wetter-than-average weather pattern into early August, and the latest 1-month and 3-month precipitation outlooks from NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center also give above-average chances of wetter than average conditions. Lake Okeechobee in Florida is 1.4′ above average for this time of year, and 5′ higher than two years ago. While this still puts the lake 1.2′ below what is considered high water, Lake Okeechobee water levels will need to be watched as we head into the peak part of hurricane season.

Utah had its driest June on record, and Arizona, Colorado, and Wyoming had a top-ten driest June. Image credit: National Climatic Data Center (NCDC).


Figure 3. Soil moisture for July 14, 2013, expressed as percent average of the soil moisture observed between 1916 – 2004. Portions of Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, New York, Vermont, and New Hampshire are near their highest soil moisture levels on record for this time of year, increasing the odds of extreme flooding in those states should a tropical storm or hurricane hit this year. Image credit: University of Washington Variable Infiltration Capacity Macro-scale Hydrological Model, which includes soil moisture, snow water equivalent, and runoff.

Drought conditions remained relatively unchanged during June. According to the July 9 Drought Monitor report, about 45% of the contiguous U.S. is still in moderate or greater drought, compared to 44% at the beginning of June. The U.S. Seasonal Drought Outlook issued on June 21 calls for little overall change in the U.S. area covered by drought conditions during the remainder of summer. Approximately 1.2 million acres of land burned in the U.S. during June, which is above average. However, the year-to-date total acreage burned is the second lowest in the past ten years.

Quiet in the Atlantic
There are no tropical cyclone threat areas in the Atlantic to discuss today, and none of the reliable models for tropical cyclone formation is predicting development during the coming seven days.

Southern Peru Earthquake 7/17

Sabancaya volcano area earthquake, Southern Peru – at least 3 injured and 20 collapsed houses

Last update: July 17, 2013 at 10:26 am by By

Screen Shot 2013-07-17 at 06.15.04

Update 04:09 UTC : USGS has even increased the Magnitude from 5.9 to 6 now. USGS is further expecting a MMI VII or very strong shaking directly near the volcano. Such a shaking will be very damaging and serious injuries and even fatalities cannot be excluded.

Screen Shot 2013-07-17 at 06.06.53

Update 04:03 UTC : A strange situation as IGP Peru is not confirming the M6.0 (all 3 international agencies are reporting M5.9 !), but is reporting a Ml5.1 at a depth of 15 km. This means NO direct eruption related earthquake (15 km is too deep) but one of the similar earthquakes on the volcano so far.
A big eruption of the volcano would have certainly be heard in Arequipa, a big Peruvian city. The earthquake was however well felt in Arequipa.

Update 03:51 UTC : The earthquake was not even felt in Arequipa as we expected but we ara  still worried about the people close to the volcano. We will certainly get more information when daylight arrives.
Local press thinks to now that the earlier, weaker, earthquakes today were not related to the volcano, but confirm that the M 5.9 was one very close to the volcano. The 5 earlier today were close to Arequipa.

Update 03:48 UTC : Even without the volcano erupting, this earthquake will be damaging for the surrounding villages where weaker earthquakes did inflict damage earlier this year.

Another, this time very strong, earthquake near the Sabancaya volcano in Southern Peru.

150km (93mi) NE of Camana, Peru
393km (244mi) WNW of La Paz, Bolivia

Most important Earthquake Data:

Magnitude : 6

Local Time (conversion only below land) : 2013-07-16 21:37:45

GMT/UTC Time : 2013-07-17 02:37:45

Update 10:23 UTC : Landslides are blocking various road in the area. People in Cabanaconde are using the Plaza de Armas as a safe retreat. We expect more news the following hours as we are getting in the morning hours in Peru (daylight)

Update 06:52 UTC : The Civil Defense services of the Caylloma province report that 20 houses collapsed, five in Huambo and 15 in Canabaconde. This news is coming out in the middle of the Peruvian night. Only at daylight the full damage impact will be visible.  We expect the damage to further increase the coming hours. Number of injured had increased from 2 to 3.

Update 05:45 UTC : El Commercio Peru reports at last 2 elderly people injured in Cabanaconde (Caylloma province). Currently we know about 15 destroyed houses and a number of collapsed walls.
The report also states that people at  Cabanaconde left their houses for a nearby local school.
We fear that the damage reports will increase further later today.
Ingemmet (Geológico Minero Metalúrgico) indicates that the increased activity in the area may be related to the Sabancaya volcano.

Update 04:45 UTC : Our Volcano specialist Rodger Wilson wrote this yesterday evening UTC : Larger magnitude earthquakes are now occurring within the current earthquake swarm at Sabancaya volcano (Peru) (station SAB). He was definitely right ! This was the seismogram from yesterday.

SAB_BHZ_PE_01.2013071612-a

Update 04:32 UTC : We consider it very good news that somebody from Chivay was able to go on the internet and tell the world that the shaking was really bad. Able to use the internet is at least that he is OK and that telecommunications are still working.

Update 04:15 UTC : We have so far NO direct news from Chivay, Peru a tourist village very close to the volcano. As the hypocenter was very shallow (USGS reports 6.6 km) the main problems might be coming from an area as narrow as 25 km around the volcano.
Based an the recent seismogram from Sabancaya, we think it did NOT erupt. NO continuous tremor can e seen on the seismogram, only the series of earthquakes.

Algeria – Damaging Earthquake 7/17

Dangerous earthquake in Nord d’Algerie – 11 injured

Update 09:57 UTC  : Radio Algérienne is mentioning a report from the Protection Civile (Civil Defense) that 11 people are now recorded as treated for slight injuries. Also slight damage at an number of houses like cracks in the walls.

Update 08:37 UTC  : we are continuously searching for more news but so far only what we have reported below.

Update 06:34 UTC : According to national radio, the earthquake has so far injured seven, four in Algiers and 3 in Blida. The earthquake also caused cracks in several houses, according to the same source added that the inhabitants of Hammam Melouane (epicenter) complain about the lack of emergency services on the site. The radio reported the presence of the army and the gendarmerie in Hammam Melouane.

Update 05:20 UTC : Earthquake-report.com considers this earthquake as an ongoing reports and will add more updates as time is passing by.

Update 05:18 UTC  : CRAAG reported that the epicenter was located at 4 km from Hammam Melouane. Civil Defence groups are currently assessing the situation. So far we have 3 injuries hurt by falling objects and 2 threated for secondary shock reasons. Algeria has always been an active earthquake area as a major fault runs along the coast.

Update 04:38 UTC  : We think that more information will be available in a couple of hours, but we are almost sure that damage will be generated. So far NO news about it.

Update 03:42 UTC  : This is a VERY populated area and houses in Algeria have almost no resistance against earthquakes. Weaker earthquakes have been generating damage a few weeks ago.

Moderate to strong earthquake in Northern Algeria. Epicenter close to Chebli.
This was an early wake up call in Algeria.
Slight damage possible as this is a very populated area.

Overall Color VIbe for the Week 7/14-20

July 14-20

The theme this week is coming together.  All sorts of things will be gravitating inwards this week.  Many of them you would never consider as having any sort of relation.  There can be many surprises with all of this.  It will be occurring on all levels and in all areas.

 

Overall Color for the Week:     Light Orange

There can be some disturbing issues that are coming your way this week.  They can be related to any area of your life, such as health, finance, belief, relationships, etc.  These are actually opportunities to stop, take a breath, and look at things from a different and new perspective.  This is a good week for letting your sense of humor be ready to deal with tricky situations.  A lot of people are kind of losing it, and by using your sense of humor as your first response, you can find yourself defusing some otherwise potentially inflammatory encounters.  You will be asked to look at some things in your life this week as the predictability you expected has begun to fall apart.  But even as this is happening, the pattern is taking form.  You can be surprised to find yourself saying things, doing things, liking things that previously you would have not done.  This can lead to some soul-searching moments.  Those are the times to go within and contact WHO you truly are.  There is comfort in this.  It can lead to a new appreciation of self, and ability to move forward.

On the larger scale, the week will start out somewhat quietly, but will be followed by a lot of missteps, misinterpretations, miscommunication, etc.   This will leave a lot of people looking very badly while, at the same time, showing them for what they truly are.  There will be a kind of odd quiet in the financial markets as things just go differently.  There is no real interpretation of what this means, so it is being left alone.  The weather patterns are shifting greatly, and you will see some of this this week as storms come and go erratically, temperatures go from one extreme to the other, and disasters happen where none were expected and are averted when according to all the old patterns, they should have occurred.  There is an eerie quiet in the beginning of the week.  This merely covers much of what is going on below the surface in all areas.  This week has a bright light as a new breakthrough is made in the field of alternative health, even as those in the mainstream are predicting more disease.  The Galactic energy is making itself felt more and more as it establishes an echo with the heartbeat of Gaia.  This will grow as the year progresses, becoming more obvious, even as those strange hums throughout the world are becoming more obvious.  It is very important at this time to research everything.  There is more and more partial information, even misinformation out there.  The week ends with a boom as Mercury goes direct.

Your Color Vibe for 07/16

Tuesday, July 16:    Frosty White

This is not a day for approaching things too quickly.  It is important to allow things to be as they are and then to react.  Any premature action can cause barriers to shoot up in your way.  You do not need that right now.  You are beginning to get a clearer picture of what it all means, but at the same time, there are a lot of things that are obscuring the picture.  This is a day for staying strongly grounded and set within your inner knowing, trusting the vision of the heart and listening to your intuition.  You are being tested today in some odd, way, but this is not something that you have not done before.  Allow yourself to respond openly and fully to what comes your way trust your feelings, and honor the direction in which they lead.  By so doing, you can break through the film of illusory particles, and you can find yourself so much more in control at the end of it all.

Your Color Vibe for 07/15

Monday, July 15:   Silky Green

Today, you can get the go-ahead for a project that you have been hoping would come about.  It will come in a rather unexpected way.  This can leave you questioning how that just happened, and perhaps believing a little more in the miraculous.  It is important to accept right opportunities when they appear.  Take time also to meditate, create, bake, whatever lets your logical mind go away as you drift in the knowing of your heart.  Vision is changing, and along with this can come those little things that appear at the periphery, the things that make you wonder whether or not you might just be seeing things.  This is a day for patience with the rest of the world.  Everyone has their own way to make, and that will be very obvious today.  This is not a time for judgment.  It is a time to be grounded and go within.  Time is speeding up.  Your focus must always be on yourself.

Your Color Vibe for 07/14

Sunday, July 14:    Nile Blue

There is a long story that needs to be told.  It is a tale of the totality of WHO you are, and things will unfold in your life today that will be elements of this tale.  This day will be marked by times of synchronicity when you will find yourself filled with wonder at what just happened.  There will also be a moment of that déjà vu which can be so unsettling as it leaves you questioning where it came from, what it relates to, and what it all means. This is also a day for being good to yourself.  Along with everything else will come a calming breeze.  Take advantage of it when it comes.  As times progresses, there will be more challenges so enjoy the rest when you can get it.

Your Color Vibe for 7/13

Saturday, July 13:    Red Orange

There are many issues that can be finding resolution today.  Some of the results may not be quite what you had expected or hoped, but they are all potential that were part of the earlier situations.  Roads can branch out in different directions.  As part of this will come some realizations and some acceptance of how things are falling together willy-nilly.  You have been putting things off, resisting things, ignoring others.  Today you will be able to see and work through a number of sticky items.  You have been holding onto a lot of stuff from the past that has no place in your life now as you change and move forward.  It is time to let those things go.  It can be difficult doing this.  It is easier sometimes to cling onto bad memories, worn out emotions, habits, and people even though on some level you are aware that they are not helping you in WHO you are.  Today your eyes are open and you are ready to make some changes.  Go for it.
