WORLDWIDE EARTHQUAKE REPORT SEPTEMBER 01_2023

The planetary alignment Venus, Jupiter, Neptune and the various lunar geometries this morning coincided on this day with the M6.1 earthquake in the Kuril Islands which occurred at an intermediate depth of 146 km, which indicates that in Severo-Kuril'sk (pop. 2,400) located 17 km from the epicenter, and Ozernovskiy (pop. 2,600) 78 km away, the quake should have been felt as light shaking.

So far, the SSGEOS forecast for this week with an 80% probability for an earthquake greater than M6+ resulted in M7.1 and M5.9 earthquakes in Indonesia, and a 6.1 earthquake in the Kuril Islands.​

WORLDWIDE EARTHQUAKE REPORT SEPTEMBER 05_2023

Moderate levels of seismic activity were recorded in the last 24 hours. Most of the significant seismic activity was concentrated in Southeast Asia, however, two atypical earthquakes occurred in Africa. The first one occurred in Tanzania with a magnitude 5.2 at a very shallow depth of only 10 km. This earthquake in Tanzania was intraplate and no casualties or significant damage have been reported although a strong shaking could have been felt. On the other hand, another M5.0 earthquake occurred north of the Ascension Islands very close to the West African coast.

This seismic activity or cluster of M5+ earthquakes was preceded by the planetary alignment: Sun, Mercury, Saturn and coincided with another planetary alignment Sun, Venus, Neptune and two lunar geometries involving Jupiter and Uranus.

The number of events exceeded the past 24 hours slightly but the energy release was higher with the equivalent of 1.2 atomic bombs.​

Due to the energy movement, there is a possibility that Mexico's turn will be next

According to earthquake analyst Jesus Ramos the movement of energy could be towards Mexico, Argentina and the United States, but it is not excluded that this M6.2 earthquake in Chile could be a precursor of another earthquake that in the worst case would have a magnitude 7.5.
mapa-placas-tectonicas.png

For Argentina, a M6.5 earthquake could be expected in the worst case, especially in the region of Jujuy and Salta.
chrome_screenshot_6 sep. 2023 22_50_55 GMT-06_00.png

This scenario for South America could be avoided if seismic activity occurs in the Sandwich Islands or southern South Africa.

This energy will have its response towards Southeast Asia, mainly Papua New Guinea, Philippines and Indonesia. Normally a round of earthquakes ends with an M7+ so a worst case M7.5 earthquake could be expected in these areas.
chrome_screenshot_6 sep. 2023 23_03_54 GMT-06_00.png

As has been reported, light to strong seismic activity has occurred in Ecuador, Peru and Colombia. Therefore, an earthquake of the same magnitude (6.2) is to be expected in Mexico (Guerrero, Oaxaca and BC) , Central America (El Salvador, Nicaragua and Guatemala) or the United States (South of California)

So.. Let's wait and see
 
At 7:45 pm, a (relatively) intense #earthquake of magnitude 3.8 occurred between Pozzuoli and Bagnoli, within the #CampiFlegrei caldera. The quake was also distinctly felt in #Naples and was the strongest since the earthquake crisis in the 1980s'.
It was one of the first tremors of this new crisis to be distinctly felt in Naples city as well. Between Pozzuoli and Bagnoli, however, the tremor caused small objects to fall from shelves and racks, as well as brief, localized power outages.

A magnitude 6.2 earthquake shook the Coquimbo region of Chile and was preceded by the lunar geometry Earth, Moon, Uranus and coincided with Earth, Moon, Saturn.

20230903000000-overview.png

Subsequently, M5.1 and M5.2 earthquakes were recorded on the Antarctic Pacific ridge, indicating the movement of energy towards Southeast Asia as expected. The next few days could see strong seismic activity in the Philippines, Indonesia or Papua New Guinea as indicated above.
