What’s up with this 4/4 comet?!

Apr 4

Over the last few months, I’ve been receiving information that April 4, 2026 would be a big moment.

Is it only information for me or will others feel it too? Well, I decided to let you all decide for yourselves. Isn’t that where it’s at - subjectivity - in all of this.

Well, the day arrived and the first image I had in my mind’s eye, strange enough, was the traditional tarot card - the Ace of Swords! So let’s break it down.

Hearing all this in my own head, over the past month, I googled comet 4/4, and this is what came up:

Comet C/2026 A1 (MAPS) is making a, "make-or-break" close pass by the Sun on April 4, 2026, traveling less than 100,000 miles from the surface.

It will make an extremely close pass by the Sun, traveling through the inner solar corona.

If it survives this intense, fiery encounter, it could potentially become bright enough to be visible in the daytime sky.

NASA has a camera that true star geeks are watching right now to see what happens. Oh the drama;)

Here’s a link to the NASA science basics of this comet.

I also happened to see a post by the account “Astrology for everyone” on FB, and it said this comet has not been in our solar system for 1,600 years.

The last time it appeared in our solar system was at the end of the Roman Empire, when a new level of human consciousness was coming into form. Some scientists are speculating this comet is a fragment of a massive parent comet that Aristotle documented in 371 BC.

It feels like a message of new beginnings to come, or at the very least, something magical to feel into that’s far bigger than our little worlds. Will it make it through? I am on pins and needles.

Now going back to that Ace of Swords image…

The Ace of Swords in the traditional tarot deck represents pure intellectual breakthroughs, mental clarity, truth, and raw, focused power.

It symbolizes a new idea, a "eureka" moment, or the strength to overcome obstacles through logic, often cutting through confusion.

Upright it indicates triumph and focused action, while reversed it signifies confusion, miscommunication, and aggression.

The card was definitely upright as I saw it appear this morning.

There’s also something about the crown/ corona on the tarot card and the sun’s corona.

Something fun to play with, if you choose.

New-ness is afoot and I for one am having a good time playing with it all.

Have you been playing with this too?

PS Tarot is a hobby of mine that started when I was about 13 years old. Its study of archetypes is something I have grown to use and appreciate beyond “fortune telling.”
