I had a dream a couple of nights ago. I was on a bus traveling through Iowa—SD. The sun looked several times larger than usual and turned a more red color. Suddenly, the ground beneath us began to move, and we slid for some distance. Or rather it slid beneath us. The sun then became smaller and looked more like a giant ball of boiling red oil. The sun was then rising and setting in different places on the horizon. It was setting further north on the western horizon than it now does.
I believe this represented, first, a solar eruption that was so powerful that it affected the core and mantle of the earth and caused a change in the axis of the earth. This means the mantle liquefied due to the sun's activity, and the crust of the earth actually slips across it. This is not the same as a polar shift, where only the magnetic poles shift.
