Lunar Eclipse = Quakes?
The evidence is (perhaps) stacking up. Mitch Battros of Earth Changes Media, as well as many other researchers (even my Facebook status!) suggested that yesterday’s lunar eclipse could cause an earthquake. And it looks like it did:
Japan’s Meteorological Agency said the quake occurred about 130 kilometers (80.6 miles) off the southern coast of Chichi Island in the Pacific Ocean. The offshore quake struck at around 2:20 a.m. (1720 GMT) at the depth of 10 kilometers (6.2 miles).
The U.S. Geological Survey also put the quake’s magnitude at 7.4.
Now, I disagree with most of Mitch’s predictions, primarily because he tends to predict things that are statistically quite likely anyway. And I have problems with his methodology regarding lunar eclipses. He believes that a major earthquake should occur within 2 weeks (before or after) of a lunar eclipse. Take a look at what happened around the time of the 8 other full lunar eclipses since 2000:
Unfortunately for Mitch’s theory, if you look at a list of major earthquakes, you’ll see that on average you get one more frequently than once per month… and 2 weeks before or after equals a month.

That doesn’t mean there’s nothing in the idea. We just need to narrow the time-frame, and accept that earthquakes only occur around some eclipses, and not others. Four of the last five eclipses (including yesterday) may have caused an earthquake within 5 days. And the last two occurred within 24 hours of the eclipse! Even partial eclipses fit the pattern, with five of the last six having an earthquake occur within 5 days. This seems to be a new trend, leading up to 2012.
Don’t be surprised if we have another major earthquake before Xmas (Dec 22 UPDATE – another earthquake in Japan, and a 6.5 quake in Iran, killing 11 people. Don’t be surprised if a bigger one happens before Xmas…) . And steer clear of earthquake-prone lands during these upcoming eclipses:

2011 Dec 10 – Total
2012 Jun 04 – Partial
2012 Nov 28 – Partial

Additionally, the two earthquakes with the most fatalities in the last 5 years, Haiti on January 12, 2010 and Kashmir on October 8, 2005, both occurred within 5 days of a solar eclipse. The next solar eclipses are:

The USGS has a tendancy to miss or downgrade earthquakes, imo it helps to have several sources for information. I know of many, so just ask. With that said, YES i have seen the connection with this for many years. I find it odd that thoeries deemed as esoteric yesterday are suddenly being mentioned in the main stream. IMO there is no main stream organization of “thinkers” that can even imagine the power that this planet can display.
I’ve seen the connection too….for many years! Eclipses always mean something is going to happen on Earth. We’ve had quite a few in the last decade. A lot of the hidden esoteric teachings/ Truths is being brought out into the open now. Watch Mother Nature do her thing.
This is yet another force of nature that was recognized by the ancients. Yet at our present level of technological advancements; only now when everything that was said was going to happen, and happening. Are the main stream communities of “thinkers” (snicker), finding it in their hearts to consider taking into account the work of the shunned scientific community. When will the the elite funded think tanks reveal the truth, they already steal the works of the discredited. So why all the secrets? No one backed up a theory from 1979 of the Galactic Superwave, yet we now have discovered a Galactic Bubble. The USGS, NASA, NOAA, or any other shill filled government entity, say there is no such link between moon phases and other lunar “cyclic events”. Hmmm…. IMO these are the same types of minds that bought into the world being flat.
A lot of this is way outside my field of technical expertise, but I do find it incredibly interesting. Saying that I am the type that needs to touch / see to believe things. There seems to be a lot of “proof” happening recently thats for sure!
In your opinions, where are these regions that are least likely to be affected by earthquakes – Im a mere 80km from the Drakensberg mountains and wondered if that really is going to be the “safe spot”??
Hopefully,….any high ground would prove safe? If not….then I’m done for!
I just cannot help but wonder if the removal of petroleum in a relatively short
period of time (150+/- years) could have had something to do with the increase
in seismic activity that we are experiencing currently? Also is it possible that
petroleum actually helped to lubricate the shifting plates?
Eclipses DO NOT CAUSE EARTHQUAKES! I know all you folks like to have fun a say the scientist are shills & do not understand what the ancients did or that they keep secrets but all of that is PURE BS! I think it well past time for many of you to grow up & stop spreading such absurd ideas.
Sorry AJ, but I ran the figures as far back as I could (1973). Major earthquakes are almost twice as likely within five days of a lunar eclipse. Obviously the eclipse isn’t the cause, but rather a force connected with the alignment between Sun/Moon/Earth. And it can’t be gravity as we understand it, so it’s either electro-magnetic, or a force we don’t yet know about.
So Many folks are in denial as to earth changes and coming events.
The Governments will not admit to any solar or lunar connections to earth events happening now or in days to come. It is my reasoning that the governments will not say anything to the public in order to keep a calm or a “control” if you will over it’s peoples so that a mass panic won’t erupt.I myself do join in with those that harken back to what the ancients foretold. As I see it.. Hold on to your hats folks it’s going to be a rough ride and there is gonna be a whole lotta shakin’ going on!!
Brightest Blessings to all!
