Melbourne – New Moon – 5.2 Quake
According to Universe Today, this month’s New Moon is at June 19, 15:02 (Universal Time).
According to the USGS and The Age, Moe (country town not far from Melbourne) had a 5.2 magnitude earthquake at June 19, 10:53.
My recent research has determined that major earthquakes are more likely during lunar eclipses. And some of the most catastrophic earthquakes recently have occurred during solar eclipses. They are the same alignments as full and new moons, only more precise.
The other observation I have made is that at those times earthquakes are more likely in places that are not usually associated with earthquakes. Like the UK and Australia. Just two weeks ago, during full moon, Ireland had their biggest ever recorded earthquake.
It’s pretty much statistically impossible (for me anyway) to show that such quakes are becoming increasingly more common. But they certainly could be, and it seems that way. Every two weeks from here on in – new and full moons – should be treated with respect and caution. It doesn’t matter if I am right, just that I could be. Occasional heightened alertness is harmless, so give it a go. I am officially on heightened alertness. While recent quakes might not be statistically unusual, in a 2012 meme context they could be indicative of something heavy looming.
Did I feel it?
My wife and puppy did. Something fell in another room. But to my embarrassment I didn’t notice it. My super-duper Aeron office chair probably absorbed it… so what is more important, my back or survival?? That’s a bloody difficult question!
