Every year for many years now, scientists and others have kept an eye on the annual Arctic sea ice minimum, which occurs when the floating Arctic ice cap melts to its smallest size of the summer. That minimum usually comes around mid-September, and, although the ice is still melting this year as of this writing (August 23, 2013), it now appears unlikely that 2013 will break a new record for the least ice observed in the Arctic. At the same time, according to NASA:

… this year’s melt rates are in line with the sustained decline of the Arctic ice cover observed by NASA and other satellites over the last several decades.

Even if this year ends up being the sixth- or seventh-lowest extent, what matters is that the 10 lowest extents recorded have happened during the last 10 years. The long-term trend is strongly downward.

Despite unseasonably cool weather for millions of Americans, July 2013 went down as the sixth warmest of the past 134 years globally, according to the U.S. government's latest monthly climate report.

The State of the Climate report, released by the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) Tuesday, showed that large swaths of the planet were unseasonably warm in July. Most of the cooler-than-average regions were either over the ocean or over sparsely populated areas such as the Yukon and Siberia.

New Earth Frequency Update ~ GAIA's Activation of Light

WTC Mel and Mike's picture

PLANETARY ~ SHARED BY REV. CHRISTINE MELERIESSEE

Acceleration is the name of the game this summer especially since the last full moon of July.  Now we are in the midst of the full moon of August with the same attributes as it is in Aquarius once again but within the Sun of Leo.  Going within and taking care of ourselves or helping others.  Balance is the key to our existence presently.

Since the Lion’s Gate we have gone through a tremendous cleansing process and will continue to so.  On August 25th there is another activation of the Merkabah energies lining up to assist in yet another portal of light to come into the planet.  I am not an astrologer so I do not understand what this energy means from that specific perspective.  What I do know about is energy, how it is perceived through psychic frequencies, and how we are affected within our four-body system as the accelerations occur within our physical existence.

Changes are happening and these activations we are going through on the planetary level are not going to change.  What needs to happen is that we learn how to live through the activations and find the best possible way to have a more balanced approach to the energies.  The reason that we are experiencing intense changes is that we need to go deeper into our Core Essence to find our heart which will illuminate the Cosmic Heart of Oneness.

Western Wildfires

FRESNO, Calif. -- A wildfire outside Yosemite National Park - one of more than 50 major brush blazes burning across the western U.S. - raged beyond the control of firefighters, but several days after it started it there has been minimal property damage and only voluntary evacuations.

The blaze in Stanislaus National Forest west of Yosemite grew to more than 25 square miles and was only 5 percent contained Wednesday, threatening some 2,500 homes, hotels and camp buildings.
