Northern Lights of 2025-2026

THE GORGEOUS AURORA BOREALIS IN THE GREAT LAKES AREA 2024

We got some unexpected pictures this year. The Aurora Borealis proudly showed it's colors to us. In Native American history, the Aurora Borealis, or Northern Lights, was often interpreted as a manifestation of spirits, most commonly the spirits of deceased loved ones, with many tribes believing the dancing lights were a way to communicate with their ancestors in the afterlife; the Cree people particularly held this belief, seeing the aurora as a part of the circle of life and a way to connect with departed relatives. Amazing sight to see this season
