headed down the road to the house after checking horses and I saw the sky was an odd brown color and thought about possible fire in the distance. Then it turned more of a pale pink and it hit me. Our very first Aurora. It rapidly turned green with pillars of bright yellow that grew over the road and our heads. The whole sky was brightly covered. Even Orion, which was VERY bright on it's own, seemed to shine harder, Thing waved and grew , we were out there a long time. We have some pictures. I have not seen them and I do not know how to post them anyway. COmputer going out, more later maybe more tonight. We have been warned that it may happen again.

enough. I'd probably a take bus or a car service to get to a good view spot (I know where). My sis can check their local building's internal on line group for those who have the right window view. She faces the wrong direction for that. Someone who had the right view from window went out only a block or two away for best photograph, and got an effin' anazing pic!

Although KP7 might be a faint northern low near horizon glow (checked on line). At 1PM today it was KP8; a much better chance at seeing it! Big effin' help! 😑
Sorry, been fascinated by them for decades!

I speculate that it was a distraction put on by the Lemurians who were actually resupplying and rotating personnel for their civilization down by the core. My crystal is silent the matter, but that could just be the Lemurians messing with the wah for their own purposes.

BTW, the first song on my Spotify this morning was Dark Star, Grateful Dead, Avalon Ballroom, ‘68, the second live performance of theirs I ever was present for. I don’t remember it. I remember a girl named Dawn I met there. Witchy. Possibly Lemurian.

The best I ever saw were in northern Ontario in Sept 82. Fantastic colors, swirled patterns, the Aurora made a sort of hum, add in howling wolves!

But you had to be in the mountains to see it. The local news showed pictures of the Norther Lights in Mount Laguna in the Eastern part of the County.

I remember traveling by plane from Europe to the US over the polar route and looking out the window and seeing the Norther Lights. Seeing them from thousands of feet in the air is different than from the ground. If I had a choice, I think I'd rather see them from the ground.
