The earthquakes occurred after the April 21 planetary geometries involving Mercury, Venus, Saturn and Uranus as well as the lunar geometries involving Jupiter and Mars.

A critical planetary geometry will occur on April 22 involving Mercury, Venus and Uranus. This configuration usually triggers major seismic events, as noted by SSGEOS possibly around April 23. So far the first part of their forecast was accurate.

SSGEOS forecast
A convergence of planetary and lunar geometry on 21-22 April can result in stronger seismic activity. A temporal cluster of higher 5 to 6 magnitude is likely. A larger earthquake is possible around the 23rd.
