Current Solar Eclipse a Key Player in Predicted Earthquakes
"If no big earthquake occurs I'll be very surprised.." -RetroJoe
In my last hub I examined how two past solar eclipses from last year would play into a significant peak in astro aspect values that relate to current transits of our solar system planets. However, there is one other eclipse that is in the here and now that is likely to be at least as relevant.
I had previously ignored it because the effects of solar eclipses rarely manifest immediately (for it to be a factor it would have to influence things within 2d4h after it occurred). I also didn't pay much attention to it because it was a so called hybrid eclipse (displaying characteristics of several types of eclipses such as partial, annular, and total at different times as it unfolds).
Britton LaRoche, who also predicts earthquakes using eclipse data, mentioned the 11/3/13 eclipse, saying he expected it to trigger an earthquake in northern Japan just after this coming Christmas. I then took a look at it and found much to my surprise that transiting aspects would be peaking (when compared to the chart constructed at the time of that eclipse) at just 10 minutes prior to the main peak of astro aspect values on the 5th of November, 2013. It will also be a substantial peak, larger than the ones for the other eclipses studied previously.
All of the eclipses may come into play, but this last one may be THE key one for determining when the largest expected earthquake may occur. The most likely window (within a larger window), where I expect at least two earthquakes to occur, extends for 40 hours in time beginning at 1625 GMT (or UTC) on 11/4/13 or 3h15m prior to an aspect value peak related to the 5/20/12 eclipse. It ends at the time of the last peak in aspect values for the eclipse of 11/13/12 or 0825 UTC on 11/6/13. The primary astro aspect value peak occurs at 1455 UTC on 11/5 (the larger window that this one is contained within begins 4h25m earlier and ends 1d9h35m later).
During this period of time I expect there to be two significant earthquakes; one of at least 6.5 magnitude and another of at least 7.2 magnitude. Here are the breakdowns in times with possible epicenter locations:
Near peak (most likely before) of 11/4/13 at 1940 UTC (relates to 5/20/12 eclipse):
Kuril Islands, Japan (Niigata Prefecture, Syonai, Fukushima, or near Kyoto), China, Philippines, Papua New Guinea, New Zealand, Tonga, Vanuatu.
Near peak (most likely before) of 11/6/13 at 0825 UTC (relates to 11/13/12 eclipse):
Japan (near Kyoto), Alaska (Rat Islands area), Indonesia (near Karakelong), Papua New Guinea, India/China border area.
Near peak (most likely before) of 11/5/13 at 1445 UTC (relates to 11/3/13 eclipse and is 10 minutes prior to a major astro aspect value peak):
Japan (near Kyoto), Alaska (Rat Islands area), Mexico, Venezuela.
