There is critical planetary geometry on 2-3 January, as discussed in the latest video. An obvious seismic response can occur later today or tomorrow, but more likely after the lunar peaks with Saturn and Neptune. Be on watch for a potential major tremor. Check out the latest atmosphere updates for potential regions.
An earthquake swarm started in Ethiopia on 21 December and is still ongoing. Tremors (thus far 41) are mostly in the higher M 4 range, but peaked M 5.1 on the 29th. East Africa is not exempt from major earthquakes. South Sudan had two M 7 earthquakes in 1990.
A critical and unique convergence of planetary and lunar geometry on 25 December can result in a major seismic event in the next few days. This geometry involves a right angle (90°) of Earth with Jupiter and Saturn, while the Moon also makes semi-right angles (135°) with both planets.
Stronger earthquakes (M ≥ 5.5) occurred above average throughout the week, peaking M 6.2 yesterday with the lunar geometry, as discussed in the latest video. There is the potential for a major tremor around 24 December.
A convergence of critical planetary and lunar geometry today will likely result in stronger seismic activity. A larger tremor may occur 19-20 December.
A convergence of planetary and lunar geometry on 12-13 December can result in strong to major seismic activity in the next few days. This geometry is discussed in detail in the latest video.
