I think that the other factor is approaching Twin Sun and the gang.
So, never mind that the sun is active, there is another player(s) in the game that "takes" most of the Sun´s electronic charge. Maybe overall nett of the solar wind is still too low, never mind that the Sun is active; like it is described in Chapter 17. "The grounding of the Sun".

Well, those could be an additional factors in the overall play, but there're still observable facts that put in question things stated in ECHCC Ch 28 about the mechanisms behind the polar jet streams' behavior (like meandering), like all those auroras in May this year for example, which were a clear indication that there was an increased flux of incoming charged particles from the Sun hitting the Earth's atmosphere and magnetosphere that month, which coincided with extreme weather and heavy rains and snow and flooding on both hemispheres, as reported in SOTT Summary for May.

And even if "never minding" or ignoring what we see and observe, that is reality left and right, would be a viable option, there're also logical and conceptual inconsistencies and discrepancies or contradictions with the claims and conclusions expressed in the Ch 28.

For example, one of them is that solar activity, as in strength or intensity of the solar magnetic field, and the compression of the Earth's atmosphere (specifically ionospheric part of it) and magnetosphere due to incoming charged particles from the Sun, like solar wind for example, both act in sort of the same direction in relation to polar jet stream behavior, that is weaker solar activity and weaker the solar wind, weaker or more meandering the jet stream gets, while in fact those two are sort of anti-correlated or work in opposition one to another. If the solar activity is weaker, that is solar magnetic field intensity is lower, then the outgoing flux of charged particles coming from the Sun and consequently hitting the Earth is greater, as fewer of those particles get caught and/or deflected, which can be assessed rather straightforwardly from the relation between the Larmor radius or gyroradius R and the magnetic field strength B, R~1/B.

So, if the amount of incoming particles from the Sun hitting the Earth's atmosphere or its ionospheric part is proportional to the strength of the polar jet streams and 'pushes' the jet streams towards the poles, meaning less or no meandering, as claimed in the Ch 28, then weaker solar activity leads to stronger jet stream circulation and location more to the North without meandering, contrary to what's claimed in the Ch 28. And vice versa, stronger solar activity would mean lower incoming flux of charged particles and consequently lower the compression of the ionosphere, which would lead to meandering jet stream being pulled more to the South, that is to the Earth's equator.

Additional thing that makes the relation between the atmospheric compression and the jet stream behavior as stated in Ch 28 highly questionable, is that the 'ordinary' compression of the Earth's atmosphere already varies in absolute terms on daily basis. It's present only on the day side of the planet considering the solar wind and other direct or directional particles and radiation from the Sun. It starts roughly at the dawn line and increases until the midday line when it starts to decrease until roughly the dusk line when it basically disappears completely as there're practically no solar wind and other solar radiation or particles hitting the Earth on its night side.
So if the compression of the Earth's atmosphere by the solar wind and other charged particles from the Sun played any significant role in jet streams behavior, we would be observing at the same time the push of the polar jet streams towards the poles on the day side and the pull back towards the equator on the night side of the planet, making the jet streams behave in a very wavery patterns and/or highly meandering behavior, continuously on the daily basis, as they circulate the globe together with Earth's rotation.
 
From Spaceweather News for October 3rd

THE STRONGEST FLARE YET: Sunspot AR3842 exploded again today, producing the strongest solar flare of Solar Cycle 25 so far. The X9-category blast hurled a CME directly toward Earth. This makes two CMEs now en route to our planet. The forecast calls for auroras this weekend. Full story @ Spaceweather.com.

I´m in no way specialist in climatology or cosmology, but I would say that one peak in solar cycle cannot undo years any years of weakened cycle (and other factors involved), and overnight straight up jet streams, hurricanes, and all the other madness that is currently doing rounds around the globe.

It's not a "one peak in solar cycle", the Sun's been rather active and cracking for at least a year and a half on a on/off basis.
Quick search for "aurora" on SOTT gives two prominent results from February and March 2023:
and there's also the occurrence from November last year when auroras were seen as far South as in Croatia:
Just because the previous solar cycle, SC24, was weaker than the one before it, SC23, which seems to be comparable to this one, SC25, does not necessarily mean that conclusions made (mainly) on the basis of that weak SC24 are valid in general.

And ain't the strength of hurricane Helene wreaking havoc recently in the Eastern US (the deadliest hurricane in the US since Katrina in 2005 according to Niall's post) coinciding with the observed uptick in solar activity enough to rise both eyebrows and ask questions?

Similar questions could have been asked already about things stated in ECHCC Ch 22, The slowdown of the Earth, for example, where apparently misleading image Fig. 93 suggested that the Earth was actually slowing down, but if looked closely the green line representing the 'moving average' was basically flat since 2006 until the end of the time scale on that graph.

And to make things "worse" vis-a-vis the claim that the Earth's been slowing down, cca 2 years ago came this Forum thread, with a graph showing that not only the planet's rotation hasn't been slowing down, but in fact has been speeding up since 2016 in a rather fast tempo.

There are other such examples of statements and conclusions expressed in the book which seem to be in contradiction to what we see and observe, which up to awhile ago would produce a knee-jerk reaction on my behalf, making me stop the further reading and skip those passages and chapters, and having sort of an emotionally charged discharge or depletion of energy. Wanted to write "unnecessary discharge", but if it wasn't really needed, as in a lesson to have fun with, that is learn something, it wouldn't have happened, right?
Luckily for me, a saying shared to @Redrock12 recently in the thread you started, "don't throw the baby out with the bathwater", came to my rescue. So, thanks for that. :flowers:

What I'm saying is that we don't need a specialization of any kind to patiently observe, research, collect data, as in Gurdjieff's suggestion, and then apply critical thinking in our analyses of those data. And if we choose so, to share our findings with others, interested fellows.
Obviously neither Laura is nor Pierre was a specialist in those two academic fields you mention, and they, especially Pierre, did a tremendous job with presenting their findings in ECHCC! That of course does not mean that all and every conclusion and hypothesis stated in the book would necessarily be true and correct, and Pierre even said so himself in the closing passages of the Preface.

What I've been finding that's particularly missing or lacking in the book is the proper treatment and inclusion of magnetism in the overall picture portrayed there. I can guess that due to the specific (educational) background and the influence of the Electric Universe model, the focus was placed on the electric component of the electromagnetic phenomena in question. But also, since the glaring absence of something can be interpreted as a sort of a signal or a message, the intuition's been nagging me that the 'omission' did not occur by pure chance or sort of a neglect alone. Seeing from the excellent @Pecha's weekly workshop summaries that the group is about to finish discussing ECHCC, I'll be looking forward to join you for these last few meetups or maybe even the very last one about this book.

Agree.
I also don´t think that that many people actually pay attention to this thread, therefore, maybe moderators should move this conversation to appropriate ECHCC thread where others may chime in with their observations/expertise.
 
Hi y'alls,

The Am-EU group finishes chapters 37-39 of Pierre and Laura's Earth Changes and the Human-Cosmic Connection September 22nd. Here's the Video and Audio link to the discussion collated by Luis.

I've attached the mind map below in both PDF & PNG form. For readability, I've also printed the mind map in bulleted form here:

Chapter 37: The Role of the Observer
  • Visual observation is a two-way process. The eyes receive not only light, but emits photons which carry information. The brain and many other organs emit photons too.
  • Quantum phenomenon such as entanglement and non-locality are found in macroscopic systems as well, such as photosynthesis, DNA, and even very large objects.
    • This ties into psychic phenomena like psychokinesis/telekinesis too. Studies done on dice-throwing being influenced by the mind have shown great statistical significance.
    • This has implications cosmically too. Roy Sullivan was hit by lightning 7 times over the course of his life. It's an extremely low chance, as getting hit by lightning once in 40 years is a 1/12,500 chance.
    • One's mental state may be a parameter in the mind influencing things at a distance. Lack of self confidence in tests have shown to increase their negative influence on events.
  • (Mari): How does Anticipation work? When anticipating, it closes off some paths, while non-anticipating opens paths. Maybe getting hit by lightning more often has to do with this?
    • (Redfox): It looks like the belief center also plays a role in this.
  • Belief in psi phenomena tend to score higher in extra sensory perception (ESP) tests.
    • (Luis): From Laura, it's important to learn how to believe.
      • (saki): Orgone generators amplify belief?
      • (RedFox): The more charge there is, the more belief effect amplification occurs?
      • (whitecoast): "Wait for the current to start flowing" by the Cs. Connected to Earth changes and maybe other things as well.
  • (RedFox): "Nocebo" effect--one can believe oneself is ill, and the body will follow.
    • (Breo): Heal Your Body by Louise Hay is a good resource with positive affirmations to prevent the mind from negatively influencing the body (i.e. creating disease and other physical ailments).
    • (Luis): Growth vs fixed mindsets. With the former, they are antifragile where they take advantage of hard challenges in order to learn and grow.
  • (Luis): The earthquake in Mexico in 1985 that killed a lot of people was likely influenced by the suffering of the people there. Does suffering in that case cause even more suffering? Maybe am thinking in linear terms. These earthquakes happen a lot in September.
    • (Mari): Ancient destruction happened in this September-October period (see Halloween).

Chapter 38: Information Theory and Consciousness
  • Beyond matter and energy, there is information that contributes to cell development and organization.
    • DNA is information--a set of coded instructions.
  • Modifications to any part of the universe implies a change to its information content, which can happen without the presence of an observer.
  • Proponents of entropy (measure of disorder in a system) eventually leading to the heat-death of the universe only take matter and energy into account. Increasing a system's information content will reduce its entropy. Less information increases it.
    • In addition to energy-driven entropy, there's also information-driven entropy. Non-living forms are subjected to the former. Living-beings are subjected to both.
    • (Redfox): Say there's a desert and there's a river. Life and plants will flourish outwards from the river, and even going uphill, which is going against entropy.
  • (Mari): In one of the Cs sessions, they say that hardcore vegetarians are freshly incarnated 2D beings. The more information and intelligence, the more complex the state of being.
  • (whitecoast): The Cs talk about entropic thoughts, which introduces more chaos into our life generally.
    • (Mari): Stress can cause a lot of illnesses.
  • (Luis): In terms of wave-reading consciousness and debugging the universe, the observers take in information and connects the dots sends the signal to the cosmos, bringing in new possibilities and balance.
    • (anartist): It's not just humans can be observers, even matter, plants, and animals can observe in their own ways.
    • (Mari): How do animals observing effect their surroundings and lives?
    • (Luis): Perhaps there's a hierarchy to observation.
  • Seth Lloyd and Henry Stapp propose this conceptual hierarchy: information -> laws of physics -> matter. Information is the most fundamental constituent of the universe.

Chapter 39: The Field
  • Retrocognition is knowledge of past events that couldn't have been learned or inferred by normal means. One example was that W. H. C. Tenhaeff was able to psychometrize the smallest of bone fragments and accurately describe its past.
  • Precognition is knowledge of future events where the separation of present and future is removed. Precognitive remote-viewing is also under this umbrella.
  • Retro-psychokinesis describes the ability to modify a 'random' event in the past.
    • A test was done by using a random-number generator to produce strings of binary numbers, which are recorded automatically and stored without anyone observing it. Later on, a recording of the strings were played back in sequential order using a green-red light system to a volunteer, who at the same time was trying to mentally enforce more red color signs. The test showed statistical significance.
  • These non-local abilities that transcend space/time must have some basis in some deeper underlying reality--perhaps a field and/or dimension full of information.
    • Fields are a space that has the same value for each point in space and time. Any change in one, changes all, implying superluminal (faster-than-light) effects.
  • The authors coins the term "Cosmic Information Field", which has the following characteristics:
    1. Immanent in that it permeates the whole space.
    2. Connected to all non-living and living forms.
    3. Made of information
    4. Transcends time
    5. Represents a deeper level of reality from which ours emerges from.
  • Contrary to popular belief, memory isn't only stored in the brain. There are cases too where humans have lost much of their brain (some with virtually no brain via hydrocephalus), but still were able to operate, think and remember with clarity.
    • The brain can be seen as a retrieval and read-out mechanism of the ultimate storage medium--the "Cosmic Information Field".
      • The brain is in this way, an antenna. A shortened antenna (i.e. loss of brain tissue) can still emit and receive information--possibly via photons (carriers of information) and electromagnetic waves (core of wireless information exchange)?
      • (Luis): Our DNA is also an antenna.
  • Light (photon movement) and electricity (electron movement) are closely related (see solar panels). Conversely, photons can be emitted by electricity running through a metal.
    • When an electric field is applied to matter, charge separation can occur where positive charges group on one side and negative on the other. This increases order, which is interlinked with information. This is fundamental to plasma.
