6.5 earthquake strikes off California coast

[Guest guest]

Dear Thor and list members:

 

Greetings and I want to thank you all for the great scholarship that has been

demonstrated in this post. However, one point must not be overlooked and this is

in agreement with the SA principles of Vedic Astrology. The Venus/ Saturn period

was operating in the SAMVA chart with Saturn as the sub period lord. Saturn is

the significator of the Earth and this was directly affected during this

transit. (by means of an earthquake). The relevant events would therefore be

linked to the house of placement, MT house, or the significations of the planet,

Saturn. In this case, the significator of Saturn was affected and so the

principles of the SA methodology have clearly been validated in this case.

 

Best regards,

John Dorio

Hello dear Vinod,

 

Certainly, there is no offense taken.

Dear Thor,with tremendous respect of your work and with that with that respect i had written only to know about Federal reserve but again i realize that without a trusted chart it is not possible but i want you to know that i only wrote and sought your advice for learning purposes and with inquisitiveness.so sorry if i offended youvinod

Hello dear list,

 

An earthquake has struck in the USA. While it was rather powerful it did not cause serious injuries or damages.

 

Some effort has been put into identifying the causes of earthquakes. It has proved a challenge to predict them with pinpoint accuracy as many factors come into play, which ultimately explain the location, size and impact of the event. However, a study of past such events shows that there are salient astrological factors and this is true also for the SAMVA USA chart. The earthquake at this time is clearly seen in terms of Venus, as 4th lord of land and natural resources, being badly placed, both natally and in transit, while also being afflicted by the transit stationary nodal axis in the 6th and 12th houses (see attached chart).

 

6.5 earthquake strikes off California coast

Earthquake in northern California, near Eureka, at 00:27 a.m. UT on January 9, 2010. A 6.5-magnitude earthquake has struck off the shore of Northern California, leaving thousands of households without power. The quake, which ran about 13.5 miles deep, hit offshore at 4:27 p.m. (7:27 p.m. ET) Saturday, about 33 miles from the coastal city of Eureka, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. About 28,000 customers, most of them in Humboldt County, were left without power Saturday evening. One gas leak was reported.

Venus-Saturn period is operating. The transit influences in order of signficance:

1. Transit 4th lord Venus at 26° Sagittarius is conjunct transit stationary Rahu at 27° Sagittarius. Both planets are conjunct natal Venus at 24° Sagittarius. In other words, both transit and natal Venus are afflicted and badly placed.

2. Transit 6th lord Jupiter is badly placed in the 8th house.

3. Transit 2nd lord Sun at 26° Sagittarius is also conjunct transit stationary Rahu.

 

We could also note the transit of sub-period lord Saturn at 10° Virgo and 3rd house. As 8th lord in the chart it is now aspecting natal 10th lord Mars. All such aspects may contribute in some way or another. Fortunately, Mars is natally strong and hence the influence of such an asepct is reduced and their power to cause setbacks. However, in the case of Venus, it is weak natally, and hence vulnerable to transit afflictions. Fortunately, the aspect of the transit station of the nodes is with a 3° orb reducing the influence. However, the conjunction of the nodal axis with transit Venus at the time of the earthquake was very close.

Dear John,

 

In mundane SA, we have seen, and this interpretation has also been supported by , that it is the 4th house which rules land, real estate and natural resources. Hence, its indications are key. While Saturn is a general indicator of structures and things mined deep from within the ground, it is not being afflicted at this time.

 

In the SAMVA USA chart, it is the natal placement of Ketu at 18° Libra, which is conjunct the MEP of 4th house at 20° Libra, that serves as the main natal trigger for earthquakes as mentioned earlier. This has been seen in the three largest earthquakes to strike the USA since its founding and why there is concern for this summer. Please refer to the three historical charts referred to in my earlier post and visible via link in my recent blog article with predictions for 2010. There are also important secondary factors. First, is the bad placement of natal Venus at 24° Sagittarius and the 6th house which renders the planet and its indications weak and vulnerable to transit afflictions. This is more so as the 4th and 6th houses are also afflicted by natal Rahu's aspect. It is therefore much more relevant for such analysis than Saturn. That said, when Saturn has been

afflicting and afflicted at times of earthquakes, it has increased the scope for harm from the events. Certainly, the dual affliction of Venus at the time of this large but non-harmful and non-destructive earthquake is consistent with the SA logic.

 

That said, there may be other factors that have a role to play in identifying the exact timing of such events, such as placement the Moon, in terms of tidal influence.

I never said or implied that Saturn was afflicted. Saturn is the sub period lord. Thus events pertaining to the significations, placement or MT house are affected. In this case, the Earth is affected which is a signification of Saturn. The logic is clear as daylight. Earthquakes are directly connected to the Earth. You can't deny this.Why don't we ask about his opinion in this matter. This would certainly shed more light on this matter.Best regards,John--- On Mon, 1/11/10, Cosmologer <cosmologer wrote:Cosmologer <cosmologerRe: 6.5 earthquake strikes off California coastSAMVA Date: Monday, January 11,

Hello John, The earthquake is due to weak transit Venus in sixth house and being under the close affliction of rahu and Ketu axis. The earth is ruled by Saturn.

 

I added the following on Twitter and Facebook because of the difficult transit situation:

"Take care and better avoid unnecessary driving between 10th to 13th January, 2010."
