Astrology of the Indonesia earthquake




More than 380 people have been confirmed dead after a tsunami triggered by a magnitude 7.5 earthquake hit an Indonesian city on Friday. Waves up to 3m (10ft) high swept through Palu on Sulawesi island. Video on social media shows people screaming and fleeing in panic and a mosque among the buildings damaged. Strong aftershocks rocked the city on Saturday. Thousands of homes have collapsed, along with hospitals, hotels and a shopping centre. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-45683630

H.S. Green’s book on Mundane Astrology written around WWI is still considered a bible of sorts amongst astrologers. In the chapter on “Earthquakes”, he writes:

Earthquakes are found to be associated with eclipses and important planetary conjunctions and oppositions. An eclipse is always liable to cause seismic disturbances where it is visible, especially if it falls very close to the line of horizon i.e. the cusps of the first and seventh houses, or of the meridian i.e. the cusps of the tenth and fourth houses. Of these two lines, that of the meridian is more important; and that of the lower meridian i.e. the cusp of the fourth house is the most important of all. H.S.Green, Mundane or National Astrology




The solar eclipse [18le] of Aug. 13 fell on the horizon at Palu, thereby fulfilling the rule for earthquakes mentioned above. Moreover, Diana Rosenberg links this area of the zodiac with major earthquakes and gives the following examples:

This was Mercury at China’s massive T’ang Shan quake that killed between ½ and ¾ million people in 1976, Mars at the lunar eclipse that preceded the Haitian earthquake of Jan 2010, Uranus at the great 9.5 Chile quake in 1960 “the largest quake ever recorded,” worst of a series of coastal quakes/ tsunamis that destroyed countless towns, the Moon at the massive 8.8 earthquake/ tsunami off Maule, Chile in 2010 that moved the Earth of its axis, Neptune  at the terrible 8.3 earthquake/ tsunami/ fire that devastated Tokyo and Yokohama in 1923, Pluto at the 1950 8.7 Assam, India earthquake, Node at the 8.3 San Francisco quake/fire of 1906 that devastated the city.

But what triggered the eclipse chart on Sep. 28 ? Notice that Jupiter [21sc32] was going precisely over the MC [21sc33] completing a mundane square with the eclipse on the Descendant.  Transit Moon was moving over the IC [21ta32] on the morning of Sep.29  providing the perfect trigger!




Having studied the eclipse chart let us take a look at the national chart of Indonesia [1] to see whether we can spot this calamity. On the MC of the chart is Saturn [19cn]. Recall that the solar eclipse [20cn] of July 13  fell on the MC with a retrograde Pluto [20cp] on the IC. Pluto is now about to station direct [19cp] opposite radix Saturn on Oct.1, Since the meridian and especially the IC is a sensitive point for earthquakes, it is no surprise that a powerful earthquake has hit Indonesia just two days before the exact  Pluto station.

PS:
The  chart for upcoming New Moon at Palu is placed very significantly on the MC square Pluto on the Ascendant. The Sabian symbol [2] for the degree of the New Moon is startling!
