Since we just had a major solar storm, it might be interesting to report any unusual phenomena.
Perhaps we have some Persinger fans?

Perhaps we have some Persinger fans?
Quote:"Sensed presence" experiences or heightened, often anomalous, psychological states are more likely to be reported during or immediately following the arrival of a coronal mass ejection (CME) on Earth, typically 24 to 48 hours after the initial solar flare is observed. While the initial radiation from a flare reaches Earth in 8 minutes, the charged plasma particles that cause significant geomagnetic storms and subsequent human, biological, and psychic effects take 1–3 days to arrive.
Key Timeframes for Enhanced Experiences:Scientific and Experiential Context:
- 1–3 Days After Flare: Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) arrive at Earth, causing significant disruptions to the magnetic field.
- Maximum Intensity (Recovery Phase): Research indicates that the most pronounced effects on human, and particularly, neuropsychiatric, health occur during the "recovery phase" of a geomagnetic storm.
- The "Second Week" Effect: One study noted a significant increase in hospital admissions for emotional distress and, by extension, potential psychological anomalies, during the second week following a major storm.
In summary, for experiences like a "sensed presence" or heightened intuitive states, the most likely time is within one to three days after a major solar flare, with effects sometimes lingering for up to two weeks.
- Geomagnetic Sensitivity: The human body—specifically the brain and nervous system—is believed to act as a receiver for magnetic fluctuations, with some studies showing a drop in alpha brainwaves during high magnetic activity.
- Increased Psychic Activity: Research suggests a correlation between higher geomagnetic activity (K-index) and a higher frequency of reported anomalous experiences (ESP, hallucinations, or "sensed presence").
- Physiological Triggers: These storms are thought to affect the pineal gland, suppressing melatonin, which can lead to increased dream bizarreness, heightened emotional states, and, for some, a sense of "unusual things" occurring, particularly for those with existing high sensitivity.
