Earthquake in Mexico

[Guest guest]

Dear friends,

 

For those interested in rectifying a mundane chart for Mexico, a good

indicator to look for in the potential chart would be an afflicted or

weak 4th house or its lord, as Mexico suffers from recurring

earthquakes. Several earthquakes have been quite destructive of life

and property. A moderate earthquake has struck today. Fortunately,

no fatalities or injuries have been reported.

 

 

Best wishes,

ACAPULCO, Mexico (AP) -- A strong earthquake hit Mexico early Friday,

knocking out power in parts of Mexico City and Acapulco and sending

frightened residents into the streets.

 

Civil defense officials in Mexico and the Pacific coast state of

Guerrero, where the quake was centered, said there were no reports of

any deaths, serious injuries or major damage.

 

The quake hit at 12:42 local time (1:42 a.m. ET) and lasted less than

a minute, the U.S. Geological Survey said. The quake was strongly

felt from the Pacific coast resort of Acapulco to the mountain

capital of Mexico City. However, it was centered inland, 40 miles (64

km) northwest of Acapulco, and just 18 miles (29km) below the earth's

surface.

 

At least one strong aftershock was felt in Mexico City a few hours

after the initial quake. The U.S. Geological Survey said it had a

magnitude of 5.4.
