Tropical Storm Isaac continued on a path towards the US Gulf Coast on Monday, prompting fears that a strengthened hurricane could hit New Orleans on the seventh anniversary of Katrina.

Having soaked Florida over the weekend, the storm – which is already thought responsible for the deaths of 19 people in Haiti and two in the Dominican Republic – is expected to gather strength before making landfall on Wednesday.

We send our message through Patrick as always to let those on the surface know that we are working together with those that are in the space of our Gaia and also with the formless ones that carry the direct messages from I Am. We have been tasked to originate your beings to your next awakening, the next and higher dimension that those here occupy. The word occupy has meaning in the 3rd D as it is a movement away from oppression to expression. The Occupy movement is ongoing but the owners of the mainstream of your media have not been allowed to cover the actions of these individuals. Your CNN and other news sources, those complicit with the 9/11 cover up are still under control.

The boat is anchored at the shoreline as the sun begins to set. It will wait there until we are able to board and sail off towards the new world. The time is growing near, we can feel the pulse of humanity quickening at the thought of freedom at last! It is close, it has been a long time coming! Have we done our homework needed to purchase our boarding passes? We were told we must leave our ego and judgment and hatred at the gate before proceeding through. Have we been successful at discarding these unnecessary emotions that do nothing but hold us back from being who we truly are? These emotions were our learning tools that showed us what life was like when we engaged in this way of thinking. It is hoped that we have come to our senses and can now see the destructive nature of these emotions. We are being asked to find the strength now to abandon these emotions and instead embrace love and gratitude.

QUIET SUN: Except for some minor rumblings on the sun's northeastern limb, solar activity is very low. The sun's X-ray output has nearly flatlined and NOAA forcasters put the odds of a major flare today at less than 10%.

FAST-MOVING SUNSPOT: Today in the blue skies above Scarborough Marsh, Maine, a dark-winged shape flitted across the face of the sun. It was the International Space Station:

"The ISS cut across the sun, transiting the entire solar disk in only 7/10th of a second," says amateur astronomer John Stetson who photographed the passage with split-second timing. "In today's transit the ISS appeared to be 54 arc seconds in angular diameter." In other words, it subtended an angle about the same as the planet Jupiter. Because the ISS is so large, it is possible to see the details of its structure through backyard telescopes. Here's a telescope that works both during the day and at night.
