This energy that connects and runs through living things is called 'Chi' by the Chinese. NASA just released an article today that address what to them, is a new idea. They call it "The stuff between the stars". See NASA article below.

As a N.A.D.A. Certified Acupuncturist, I have some understanding of magnetics and the human grid. This principle can be expanded to all that exist in time and space. It has been  known for thousands of years there is an energy that runs through all living things. The Chinese call this energy "Chi" or "Qi".  The Japanese call it "Ki". The eastern Indians (India) call it "Prana". The Mayans call it "Gaia". And of course, Luke  Skywalker calls it "The Force".

It is when this energy is out of balance,  that it manifest as illness (both physical and mental) as applied to humans and animals. The same can be said for our solar system or universe. Perhaps this is why we are witness to unprecedented solar flares and celestial (asteroids/comets) activity.

The very basics of acupuncture is the study of the human gird or energy field, and its connection to our anatomy.  The largest part of an acupuncturist study, is defining and identifying the energy points which network through the human (animal) body. These energy points are known as "meridians". Meridians are a network of bio-magnetic grids (energy points) that run through all living things. When the life force energy i.e., "Chi, Ki, Prana, Gaia, The Force" is out of balance, it manifest as illness. What an acupuncturist will do is manipulate certain meridians, depending on the ailment, to bring balance back to the body/mind. Is it possible the universe has meridians (power points) as well? New discoveries is beginning to say Yes.

I believe it is more than possible the current "magnetic shift", due to the suns solar cycle, has a direct affect on human (animal) behavior. Could this be the cause of hundreds of dolphins beaching themselves? Also the phenomenon of migrant birds flying in areas never before seen. Could it be true there is an epidemic of "mood and personality" disorders such as Depression, Anxiety, Phobias, Addictions? Is this a result of the earth's magnetic field shifting? Could this "magnetic shift" in addition to affecting our weather, also be affecting humans as well? In like, could this same cause/effect interaction affect our universe as well?

Just as the Earth has its magnetic field, so do humans. It makes sense that what would certainly disrupt one, would disrupt the other. Are we indeed connected to the Earth (Universe) in ways current science cannot explain. Perhaps we will find the answers in our ancestors ancient text.

Equation:
Sunspots = Solar Flares = Magnetic Shift = Extreme Weather (and perhaps emotional disturbance?).

The Stuff Between the Stars...07/31/00

The cosmos is laced with tiny specks of dust that decide the fate of young stars and planets. Now, NASA scientists can study the properties of far-flung space dust in the lab.

Space is a vacuum, right?  Well, almost... The space between the stars is about as empty as the best artificial vacuums created by scientists on Earth, but throughout space, the void is faintly sprinkled with gas molecules and dust grains.

These extremely sparse crumbs of matter drifting in lonely spaces between the stars may seem utterly obscure and insignificant, but they turn out to play an important role in the formation of stars and planets and many other astrophysical phenomena.

To better understand how dust grains respond to conditions in space, researchers at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) have built an apparatus in the Dusty Plasma Laboratory (DPL) that can suspend individual dust grains in a near vacuum. Once a dust grain is captured, scientists can bombard it with forms of radiation found in space and see what happens.

"What we're doing here is taking one particle and exposing it to these space-like environments and studying what happens to its (electrical) charge and other properties," said Catherine Venturini, who worked on the project for more than four years while pursuing her master's degree in physics at the University of Alabama in Huntsville.

The electrical charge on dust grains in space can, among other things, determine how small particles of dust stick together and grow into larger-sized grains that lead to the formation of stars and planets. Gravity pulls dust and gas in interstellar clouds together, but because the electrostatic force over short distances is so much stronger than gravity, even a small electrostatic repulsion between dust grains can influence (and possibly prevent) a cloud's collapse.

Also, the gas in the cloud tends to heat up as it compresses. If the cloud cannot radiate that heat away, the expansive force of the heat will resist further compression. Dust grains in the cloud are able to radiate this heat as infrared light, cooling the cloud and allowing collapse to continue.  http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2000/ast31jul_2m.htm?list

If a nebula does collapse into a stellar system, dust provides many of the elements such as carbon, iron, magnesium and silicon that comprise the planets. (Unlike household dust, which is largely composed of dead skin cells and other organic debris, cosmic dust probably consists mostly of heavier elements.)
