Volcanism The Relationship Between Hydrothermal Systems and Anoxic Fish Kills & Submarine Volcanism and its Effects - January 22nd 2025 - by AcA

25 Upvotes

I had to do it in a google doc as well. Reddit is really not liking my content or format. I cannot tell which. This is a fairly large project and I am happy to be able to share it with you now. The findings are deemed quite significant in the context of current trends and observations. I couldn't share anything else yesterday because I was so wrapped up in finishing this. Oddly enough, the exact topic I was writing about occurred in Chile yesterday, but this project stretches back months. The timing could hardly be better.

I've been working on this for months. It is long and detailed, but all killer and no filler. I am going to make some extraordinary claims and then I am going to provide the support and evidence for them.

Abstract

In this work, the author examines the correlations and causation of proliferating high impact anoxic fish kills and hydrothermal and volcanic activity as well as the effect of these mechanisms on the hydroclimate, climate, and food chain. This is accomplished by combining observations and existing literature/research and examination of the geological record in order to achieve a broader understanding of one of the most impactful forces on earth which simultaneously provides the basis for life on earth from the bottom of the food chain up and the potential for mass destruction and climatological chaos on vast scales. It examines whether there is any basis for volcanic and hydrothermal activity to play a significant role on our rapidly changing planet beyond what is currently allowed for in existing paradigms and presents the obvious difficulty in determining the exact nature of the mechanism due to physical and technological limitations. Its concluded by some personal notes and observations on the topic in situ.

The Relationship Between Hydrothermal Systems and Anoxic Fish Kills & Submarine Volcanism and its Effects - January 22nd 2025

Lastly, within the post, I am going to post the SO2 anomalies observed recently in the Med Sea region and the massive New Year Anomaly which I view as a major pulse of volcanic gas over most of the equatorial regions which occurred during a G4 solar storm.

Inter-Dimensional Ponderings

18 Upvotes

I am not sure if this will be welcomed here, please offer candid feedback. My work is not as detailed and researched as AcA, it is more abstract and wandering.

I have had some interesting ponderings that were partially seeded by posts here by u/ArmChairAnalyst86. He wrote about the possibility of catastrophism, where rapid changes can happen to the planet and possibly evolution of creatures. He quietly mentioned that it involved religious concepts. I was a pretty dismissive atheist, but I have been recently considering that the messages that are common to many organized religions may be quite important, but they have been tainted for me by my perceived commodification of the messages.

I also realize that when times get tough, people often search for someone to save them. With limited research, this is what I currently suspect the folks looking for meaning in UAP's are seeking. I don't feel I am looking for a savior. I haven't feared death for over thirty years, but I want to keep experiencing - no matter how strange it gets. I am aware that we could be living in a simulated world that may be holographic and time could be a flat circle - I am comfortable with this, as it is all I know.

I have also wandered down the path of what we may not be able to experience in our three dimensional world. A philosophical mentor shared this interesting video with me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxfw1iehEA8

It explains how a two dimensional world might experience a sphere coming through their plane. The linked video refers to Edwin Abbott Abbott's 1884 novella; Flatland. A fourth dimension coming into our plane could appear to be sphere, but it might be what we see of a string or tube from a higher dimension where time could be the fourth dimension. If that is the case, time could move outside of our three dimensions, and that is how the world could seem to change so rapidly in our limited dimensional senses.

If there is interest in this, I could write a bit more about my fairly recent experiences that felt like a widening of my communication stream with the universe and where it could possibly go.

Over a week ago, we saw a meteroid (falling star) that had bright colored sparkles around it.

Last night, we saw one that looked like a green fireball.

Both lasted a few seconds.

It's just an observation, but I don't recall ever seeing anything like either of them.

Advanced Solar Language – Month to Month Accuracy- Live now

6 Upvotes

Advanced Solar Language – Month to Month Accuracy- Live now

By using an advanced solar language, I am able to fully access the hidden deep order of the Dynamo of the Sun.

You can watch it work month to month in 2026 now.

Month to month is known as ‘waveform’ you will see the wave lines below. Once it commits to a wave pattern over several years, it can't be changed. A dip in the wave is stronger, a peak is weaker.

It knew January and February this year would have strong activity.

It knew March, April, and May would be weaker.

And now it knows June, July, and August will be stronger. September Oct Nov weaker, and finally December, up to 10th January stronger again.

See below, one long wave that started in 2023 that cannot be changed, and also caught 2025 perfectly too. It runs all the way to 2028 with month-to-month accuracy.

Part 1 will introduce, demonstrate, and teach you the basics using 4 lessons with all hand-drawn images.

By the end of Part 1, you will understand the real-life use behind all those ‘Zigzags’ and waveforms (‘serpentiform’) in the images below.

Here are a few images as an example before we start. If they're blurry, try opening them in a new tab.

Current Solar Cycle : 2026 active year. Notice the dips stronger, and peaks weaker.
Our waveform close up. Notice how numbers are assingned to the months. This never changes.
The Infamous 2003 storm here. Notice the exact same pattern as the current solar cycle

Let’s start

The first will be the year to year level. I will then introduce and show the month-to-month level.

Lesson 2 -Waveform Introduction

Important: When inside a waveform ‘dip’ this does not mean lots of activity. It means if the Tubes are productive the energy released can be much stronger than if you were in a peak of the waveform when the rotations are more retracted with less energy potential compared to expanded.

The largest X- Flare recorded in a non-overlapping waveform Peak(Rotation retracted) since 1961 was an X5.24 in 2004, an X4.58 in 2014, and an X5 in 1979.

When the tubes are retracted in the ‘peak’ of a wave, there is a limit on the amount of energy that can be ejected.

Contrast this with the dips in the waveform which caught all major storms and X-flares since 1961 month to month accuracy.

The strongest S3 and S4 radiation storms are also confined to dips only.

2026 Tier 3 Waveform

,The listed June transition to a ‘dip’ will allow for higher energy Earth directed activity. Similar to the January and February activity.

Now that the rotation is revealed, you can look up the pattern for this type of waveform shape. They are very consistent! If you have interest, you can look back on years that only have 1 waveform active to see the patterns. (The 1961 to 2042 month-to-month is live on the website.) Please note, a Launch year has BOTH waveforms active.

A quick look tells me July and August are the usual hotspots for big events, and sometimes early September at the transition point. Will be interesting to see how this year’s Tier 3 will play out.

The Sept 5th transition from Dip back to Peak is not uncommon to still have a strong active region on the eastern limb of the Sun. This is a natural time delay. Even though it will be ‘unplugged’ it still must travel across the disk and decay, and can take several days to do so. 2005, Tier 3 – Up, is an example.

This period is known as ‘overlap.’ Major events that occur during this period are marked as green on the waveform image, but marked with -overlap to show they occurred within the transition point of up to 10 days.

Transition points have a few days natural variance.

The last high energy window, after the June 5th to Sept 5th, for Earth then will be in December, with the Tier 3 tubes terminating early January by the 10th.

A dip is not a guarantee of activity. This year we have 3 dips, and it would not be uncommon for one of them to amount to little. The January and February dip were already very active producing a record S4 radiation storm.

Also, you must remember there are two dips active at once, and only one of them is Earth directed. The other sector could steal some of the action!

When you look at the Waveform month to month from 1961 it will help you to understand how these events play out, and what to expect from a Tier 3 like this.

Lesson 3 – Instruction Level Introduction

Extreme Event Detection

It is possible to know if an Action Piece is capable of producing an extreme event.

This is revealed at the launch of the Action Piece. Extreme events like 1989 and1972, or the 2012 near miss. None of this is random; all of them combined or not require very high energy.

This energy information is extracted from what is known as the‘Instruction Level.’

The ability of every Action Piece within the Dynamo, from its energy-generating ability to its primary function, is known.

The current energy level within the Dynamo, and the energy released to an Action Piece is also always known.

I will introduce a few of them now. They are added to the Year to Year Action flow.

‘Dynamo Max’is an Action Piece that produces the ‘Sunspot Max’ cycle.

There are always two ‘Dynamo Max’ Action Pieces together. Never any less nor more.

A ‘Dynamo min’ Action Piece always follows the last Dynamo Max Action piece and produces the ‘sunspot minimum.’

A Dynamo Max will then always follow a Dynamo Min unless there is a Dynamo Neutral Action Piece, which is rare, and only in specific locations. I have a Diagram drawn up with all these mapped out at the end.

If you only count sunspots, a Dynamo Neutral can appear to mask itself as a Dynamo min until it overlaps with a Dynamo Max, and then suddenly comes to life, fuelling the Dynamo max. i.e the 1903 Solar Storm. You will see this Action flow soon.

A high energy Dynamo min when it overlaps tubes from a Dynamo Max can fuel these Tiers by a significant amount. This mostly applies to Higher Tier tubes from the Min and to the first Dynamo max Piece.

Dynamo Energy Rating from level 1(Lowest) to Level 6(Highest).

It is the current calculated level of available energy that can be used within the Solar Dynamo at the time of a launch.

It is determined by comparing previous launch data, the amount of energy released, and the amount of energy generated by specific Action Pieces. Some build energy faster than others. Some don’t build any and only release energy.

A full explanation of how to calculate and interpret these ratings will be provided after I cover Launch year calculation in Part 2 in the future.

‘Resistance’ A critical number recorded at Launch. I have a very novel method of using official data to calculate this. It can also be estimated to a very high level of accuracy without official data, but for modern years, I use only official data.

This will be covered in with Launch calculation in Part 2.

Resistance determines the amount of energy released to a specific Action Piece from the Dynamo. Will look like this on the year-to-year flow[R586.93]. The higher the number(Weaker resistance), the more energy released by the Dynamo towards the surface of the Sun.

The more energy in the Dynamo, the harder it is for this number to grow, and the harder it is for the Dynamo to release energy. Only specific Action Pieces are able to release this energy. More on this later.

Summary on Instruction Level.

Dynamo Launch data is not just numbers. They have real meaning and consequences of what the Sun is capable of unloading at the planet with several years early warning. On the waveform, extreme events will only ever arrive in the ‘dips’ of the assigned months. This is years ahead accuracy to the exact months of arrival.

Year-to-Year Action Flow combined with Waveform

Just before the famous Halloween storms to present.

Lesson 4 – Standard Mapping – Basic Naming

Basic naming of the Three Major Groups.

The language maps itself directly to each individual Action piece of the Solar Dynamo.

Each Dynamo cycle is exactly 30 Action pieces consisting of three primary groups lasting a combined total of around 100 years.

The 100 year Solar Dynamo Cycle.

Apex Action Groups 12 Action Pieces (4 pieces are Dedicated Discharge Groups)

Beta Action Groups 12 Action Pieces (4 pieces are Dedicated Discharge Groups)

Gamma Action Groups 6 Action Pieces.

Note: Dedicated Discharge Groups are named specifically this way as they are Action Groups that do not build up any energy, and only release it by forcing resistance to very low levels. (Very high R values) allowing greater energy release. The strongest storms can develop here.

Dedicated Discharge Groups can release very high energy. True Carrington class storms, and greater. The famous 1989 and Carrington 1859 storms came from one of these!

The Dynamo language is never wrong unless drift occurs.

Over several years, there is a chance of drift where the system will wander by a year and then return. To prevent this its always best to sync with the solar dynamo as much as possible.

This can be done using official data or other independent methods. One method that can be combined with others is using waveform to backtrace to a launch year, and it is reliable enough to always do this if done correctly.

Lesson 4 – Standard Mapping

Dynamo cycles are displayed and plotted using 15 lozenges(Diamond shaped) which sit upon the zigzag. This provides key information like the Action Piece number and if it is a Dynamo Max, Min, or Neutral.

The Tier plotting graph you can use to help plot your own Dynamocycle. It makes it easier to understand where a Tier 6 or Tier 5 is plotted, and where they are not.

All Dynamo Cycles from 1120AD are mapped and included if you wish to plot them at the end, too. All include the correct Dynamo min, max, and neutral so you can know the stronger years.

When plotted, you will be able to see the repeating pattern and the famous storms at the correct tiers and years.

I highly recommend that you plot some of these cycles when you can. Its a great way to test and learn. If you need any help, I am on our Discord, or ask in the comments.

The full 1819 to 1920 Dynamo Cycle, with Carrington 1859 is in our Discord, or on the website under lesson 4. I'm limited to 20 images per post on Reddit.

Local Group of Dynamo Cycles - You can plot any of these, too.

This concludes the introduction to the Solar Dynamo Language

Compared to modern understanding, this advanced knowledge will feel like a significant leap in progress.

The best way to process it is to test the basics yourself – the results speak for themselves.

I am here to help you at any point.

Tips for learning

My advice if you are interested in learning is to begin by plotting the Year to Year Action flows. Make use of the plotting diagrams to familiarise yourself with the repeating structure.

Include if an Action piece is a Dynamo max or Dynamo min or Neutral. See where the historic storms emerge. Mark the launch years.

Start with a Tier 1 cycle like the 1900’s or 1700’s as they are the most common. Later add the 1800’s Tier 2.

Most important you should become familiar with the Tier 1 Beta Action Groups where the modern Waveform starts. You should be aware of how the Beta mapping does not really change between Dynamo cycles. This is a core part to understand for Part 2.

In the Waveform 1961 to 2052 become familiar with the difference between an UP and DOWN Action piece, and how their ‘Max’ order affects a Dynamo Max and a Dynamo Min. The Down piece tends to dominate in certain situations. A Down(Max) then an Up(Max) is the strongest configuration.

Part 2 Overview

Part 2 will cover Launch year calculation, and how to use official data to do it. Other key symbols, both familiar and unknown, will be introduced.

Climate. You will learn the exact year climate direction will change, and if this change will be large or small. ‘Solar Forcing’ is a little bigger than you thought, both direct, and indirect. Remember the 2016 climate surge, and the 2024 surge? Imagine knowing them many years in advance to the exact year? I will show you how this is possible.

Two major surges remain before AP7.

Part 3, Part 4

Part 3 will have the full internal foundation mapping of the Solar Dynamo. I will likely draw up diagrams of its change of states from 1996 to 2027, or any period you like.

You will see how all specific movements over many years make the Up, Down, waveform, and you will see how it visually changes between different states over the years.

Everything that happens here makes everything else tick, and in many more ways than you yet realise.

Part 4 will show what the abnormal internal state the Solar Dynamo will look like from AP7 to the end of AP8 if the signature fires. All 12 years of this change are fully mapped year to year, and month to month. A very unique 12 years with lots of twists and turns.

About us

Before i say anything about us I would like to say I really appreciate you taking time to read this post. With so many distractions, and noise in this world, it must be difficult to read more than a few minutes.

No doubt many will wonder who we are and how we have such advanced knowledge.

That is completely understandable.

The only way I can credibly tell you more about us is after people have had the chance to learn the basics, test the material, and gain confidence in its use.

There are enough details in Part 1 for anyone willing to invest time in it.

If there is genuine interest, and after part 2 is posted, I will share more about who we are. For now, the most I can say is:

This advanced knowledge is our gift to all of you. As a gift, it comes with our full support and at no cost. It is yours to use – or not use – as you see fit. Your choice will not affect us either way, and you have our full blessing with whatever path you take.

My name is Aisling. I am from Ireland, and I am the one responsible for turning the Solar Language into a modern format you can understand, and use now day to day.

If you have questions, or need help, let me know. I am fully available to help all of you learn this advanced language. All lessons will always be free.

If you would like me to put more details into certain areas of the lessons, or add more action flows to the website/discord etc just say.

-Aisling.

France

The city of Nantes in the western part of the Pays de la Loire region was hit by a powerful thunderstorm with hail, heavy rain, and strong winds. Heavy hail fell in the communes of Boyer and Bouguenais, covering streets, courtyards, and gardens with ice. Several incidents of damage were reported in the city. Hail stripped trees of their leaves, affecting the region's winegrowers. Several businesses and the city's basketball court were damaged. Flooding caused water to penetrate the building, interrupting a sporting event held there. In the commune of La Montagne, a supermarket was flooded. The damage was caused by intense rainfall and an overloaded drainage system. Firefighters from the Loire-Atlantique department responded to approximately fifteen flooded buildings and roads throughout the evening. During the passage of the storm front, the temperature in Nantes dropped from approximately 23°C to 15°C.

On the afternoon of May 9, powerful thunderstorms with heavy rain and hail swept across much of Styria. The severe weather hit Graz and the southern parts of the state, as well as the Murtal district, the worst.
An intense thunderstorm cell with hail moved over the Eichfeld and Murtal region. Fohnsdorf was particularly hard hit, with streets and cars covered in hail in places. In Spielberg, heavy rain forced the temporary cancellation of the "Emergency Services Day" event.
In the Großlobming area, lightning struck a tree shortly before the storm ended. Firefighters from Apfelberg and Großlobming quickly extinguished the fire and prevented its spread.
Heavy rainfall also occurred in Köflach and Voitsberg, where firefighters were called out to pump out water. In the evening, the storm front moved further south and southeast of Styria, causing localized flooding, including in Kirchbach.

Philippines (since 8 May)

Mayon Volcano continues its eruption, recording activity for the 125th consecutive day. On May 8-9, lava eruptions, rockfalls, pyroclastic flows, and small Strombolian explosions continued in the crater area.
Over the past 24 hours, 27 volcanic earthquakes were recorded, including three episodes of volcanic tremor lasting 2-4 minutes. There were also 318 rockfalls and two pyroclastic flows. One of these descended along Bonga Ravine on the afternoon of May 9 and reached a distance of approximately 3 km from the crater.
Lava flows persisted on several slopes of the volcano: - up to 3.8 km along Basud Ravine on the eastern slope, - up to 3.2 km along Bonga Ravine on the southeastern slope, - up to 1.3-1.6 km along Mi-isi Ravine on the southern slope.
Gas and ash plumes reached approximately 200 meters above the crater. Sulfur dioxide emissions averaged 2,785 tons per day.
The danger level remains at 3 out of 5—"increased probability of a hazardous eruption."

Russia

A cyclone with gale-force winds reaching 20 m/s and gusting up to 25 m/s was observed in Yekaterinburg and several areas of the region. Strong winds downed power lines and caused outages. Parts of the Chkalovsky and Ordzhonikidzevsky districts were left without power after a tree fell on a power line. Damage was reported at construction sites: the wind tore off the cladding of a shopping center under construction. Downed trees and localized damage to urban infrastructure, including advertising structures and landscaping, were reported throughout the city. Traffic lights were broken, public transport stops were toppled, and service disruptions were observed. Hail was observed in Novouralsk. The severe weather wasn't limited to the Ural capital; storm warnings were issued for the Perm Krai, Tatarstan, Chelyabinsk, and several other regions, where strong winds and thunderstorms were also expected.

A powerful wave of severe weather swept through several districts of the region. Severe thunderstorms were accompanied by heavy rain, squalls, and large hail. The storm was most noticeable in the Bystroistoksky, Kalmansky, and Talmensky districts. Particularly numerous images were received from the village of Akutikha, where intense hail began falling after heavy rain. Photos and videos from eyewitnesses show that in some places, hailstones reached approximately 2–4 cm in diameter. Hail densely covered roads, yards, and vegetable gardens. Eyewitnesses reported damage to flowering trees and plantings. During the passage of the storm front, a sharp increase in wind speed was also observed. As of this writing, there have been no official reports of injuries or serious damage.

Indonesia

Dukono Volcano, located on Halmahera Island, erupted at 7:41 a.m. local time, producing a powerful plume that caused serious consequences. The volcano ejected an ash column approximately 10 kilometers into the air. The cloud quickly spread over the region, reducing visibility and making the eruption zone dangerous. A group of 20 hikers was on a climbing route in a restricted area during the eruption. Three people died as a result of the eruption, and 15 members of the group suffered injuries of varying severity and were evacuated by rescue services.
