With the news focussed on Japan these first few days of 2024 with both a 7.4 Earthquake in Kanazawa and the day after, today, Jan 2nd, a Japan Airlines plane catching fire at Tokyo airport it seems worth a quick perusal of the Uranus station chart to search for warning signs. The search took all of 2 seconds as just a glance at the chart set for Kanazawa sets alarm bells ringing. It's very angular for a start, with every angle hosting the type of planet (or node) one routinely expects to see for a sudden, unexpected, mundane event such as an earthquake or an airline flight in flames.

So here is the chart by itself for the location of earthquake (sans transits & progressions) with Uranus exactly on the ascendant. James is quite right, if these charts work then someone or rather some group of people should be forewarning inhabitants if only to be careful of future events - similar to an early primitive weather forecast. Why not? - if it manages to save lives in some cases.

I should really have spotted this chart a mile off..

And here is the Progressed Moon setting off the Grand Cross in fixed signs of Uranus/AS-Saturn-Venus-Nodes.

And finally the Transits on the day Jan 2nd and more pertaining to the fire on the runway at Tokyo Airport which is still ongoing.

Thank you for sharing. I happen to have some thoughts I would like to share as well.

Here is the post I just wrote today.

"Ishikawa Earthquake"

Ishikawa Earthquake 2024/1/1 4:10PM Shika, Japan

The earthquake happened in Ishikawa Prefecture, Noto, which occurred on January 1st at 4:10 PM local time, measuring 7.6 in magnitude with a maximum seismic intensity of 7. The severe shaking resulted in the collapse of numerous buildings and triggered large-scale fires.

In fact, the northern part of the Noto Peninsula, particularly around the city of Suzu, has experienced frequent seismic activity over the past three years. In May 2023, a strong earthquake with a maximum seismic intensity of 6 occurred, capturing the attention of Japanese experts. Last year, experts issued a warning, speculating that the frequent earthquakes might be attributed to the infiltration of underground water, equivalent to the volume of 23 Tokyo Domes, into the fault, leading to increased seismic activity and causing earthquakes with a magnitude exceeding 7 on the Richter scale.

The heavily seismic Ishikawa Prefecture is situated almost in the center of mainland Japan, primarily divided into four major regions: Kanazawa, Noto, Kaga, and Hakusan. The epicenter of this recent earthquake is located in the Noto Peninsula area. In fact, seismic activity has been quite frequent in the northern part of the Noto Peninsula, near the city of Suzu, since December 2020. This phenomenon is referred to as the "Noto Earthquake Swarm." As of the end of December 2023, a total of 506 earthquakes with a seismic intensity of 1 or above have been recorded in this region.

Earthquakes in Japan are typically categorized as "main shock-after shock" seismic events, meaning that after a major earthquake occurs, the frequency of aftershocks gradually decreases over time. However, the concept of "earthquake swarm" refers to a phenomenon where there is no distinct main shock, but rather a prolonged series of repeated seismic activities that may persist for several years without a clear tapering off.

An example of such an earthquake swarm is the "Matsushiro Earthquake Swarm" that occurred in Nagano Prefecture from 1965 to 1970. During that period, a total of 60,000 perceptible earthquakes with a seismic intensity of 1 or above took place. This highlights the unique nature of earthquake swarms, where seismic activities can endure for an extended period without a prominent main shock-aftershock pattern.

In December 2020, there was a notable increase in seismic activity in Suzu City. Initially, the earthquakes were primarily concentrated around the Iida area in the southern part of Suzu City. Over time, the epicenter gradually expanded to the western region, including the Wakayama area, the Daia Valley area facing the Sea of Japan, and the Kitasai and Higashisai areas on the northern and eastern sides, respectively.

The occurrence of earthquake swarms is often associated with areas around active volcanoes. However, in the vicinity of Suzu City, where there are no active volcanoes, the frequent seismic activity has intrigued experts. Out of curiosity, the Geospatial Information Authority of Japan has an observation point in Suzu City. One year after the earthquake swarm in December 2020, a ground uplift of 3 centimeters was observed in crustal movement.

Professor Takashi Nishimura from Kyoto University's Disaster Prevention Research Institute pointed out that "such a pronounced crustal movement has never been observed in places without volcanoes in the past." To investigate the underlying reasons, Nishimura and a research team from Kanazawa University conducted a two-year investigation and suspect that an unknown object is compressing the ground.

Experts speculate that at the end of November 2020, a large volume of fluids ascended from deep underground to an area approximately 16 kilometers in depth, leading to the recurrent occurrence of small-scale earthquakes in the southern part of Suzu City. There are multiple inclined faults underground in Suzu City, and the fluid seepage into the fault fractures triggered "slow slip" phenomena in the region between depths of 14 to 16 kilometers. The fluids continued to spread underground, causing an increase in seismic activity in the northern part of Suzu City as well. The estimated volume of these fluids is approximately 29 million cubic meters, surpassing the volume of 23 Tokyo Domes. When earthquake swarms occur near active volcanoes, the fluids are often magma. However, based on the analysis of data such as seismic wave velocities in the Suzu region, experts suspect that the fluids beneath Suzu City are most likely water.

In fact, in March 2023, experts observed a slowing down of crustal movement in some northern parts of Suzu City and the Noto region. However, just over a month later, in May 2023, a magnitude 6.5 earthquake occurred in the offshore area of the Noto Peninsula. Experts analyzed this occurrence and identified two possible factors. First, the seismic swarm phenomenon might have concluded as the fault distortion caused by fluid was eliminated due to the strong earthquake. Second, fluid infiltration into the deep segments of the Suzu Offshore Fault could potentially trigger a major earthquake. Experts regarded the latter as the more alarming scenario since the Suzu Offshore Fault is a submarine active fault, and displacement could lead to a seismic event with a magnitude exceeding 7 on the Richter scale. At that time, Professor Nishimura warned, "Having an active fault nearby is like having a fire next door; the situation is very dangerous."

After the earthquake on the 1st, Professor Nishimura stated in an interview that the mechanism of this earthquake is likely the same as the one in 2023, and it is highly probable that the same fault zone as last year's earthquake triggered this recent strong quake. Junichi Nakashima, a professor of seismology at the Tokyo Institute of Technology, also pointed out that this strong earthquake shares similarities with past seismic activities in the Noto Peninsula, being a "thrust fault-type" earthquake. He similarly believes that water rising from deep underground, flowing into existing faults, makes the fault more prone to slip. In this case, a fault over 100 kilometers moved at once, causing such a massive earthquake.

On the 1st, the Geospatial Information Authority of Japan reported that an immediate analysis of data obtained from artificial satellite observations revealed the effects of the earthquake on the Noto Peninsula that occurred on the afternoon of the same day. The earthquake caused the "electronic reference points" in Wajima City to shift approximately 1.3 meters to the west, Anamizu Town to shift about 1 meter to the west, Suzu City to shift approximately 0.8 meters to the west, and Nanao City to shift about 0.6 meters to the northwest. The Geospatial Information Authority of Japan emphasized that examining crustal movement data provides insights into the magnitude of this significant earthquake.

During the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake, the Geospatial Information Authority of Japan observed displacements exceeding 5 meters at observation points near the Oshika Peninsula in Miyagi Prefecture. However, the Geospatial Information Authority of Japan cautioned that the real-time analysis results may be influenced by local ground movements and the inclination of observation points, resulting in lower accuracy compared to more comprehensive analyses. They mentioned that after conducting detailed investigations, the results might be subject to revisions.

Yes absolutely, Wei, the previous lunation provides evidence also and maybe other charts, the eclipses, ingresses and so on and that is the problem re. forecasting...a plethora of charts and I'm sure they interweave between themselves like cogs in a watch - some big cogs & some small.

Anyway just one more to add for now ..the last Uranus Direct chart from 2023.

Note here that Uranus transit finally squares natal Ascendant-Moon - Events that shock the public.

Also re. collision between 2 planes leading to the fire at Tokyo Airport..Moon and Mars on angles are the two planets suggesting ''accidents''. And on a JUPITER STATION day (here transit quincunx the MC).

Hi Greg Young,

Like you, my aspiration is to be able to "predict in advance," but at the moment, I can't think of any benefits to "predicting in advance."

Just like how Robert Zoller predicted 9/11 in advance. I've seen his original prediction, where he mentioned the Twin Towers and Osama bin Laden.

He even called to alert the U.S. government.

However, 9/11 still happened.

Regardless of whether predictions are useful or not, anyway, my aspiration and interest lie in being able to "predict in advance," and I can't dwell too much on other matters.

I apologize for not directly addressing your question because I am currently conducting experiments and exploring potential solutions.

greg

i call it hindsight astrology.. nothing wrong with any of that, and it is fun to look at the connections - in retrospect...

i am sure you are not trying to be opaque, but you don't mention what the station is? is it a station of mercury, or pluto or?? i can't get that off your chart, but i suppose i am supposed to know? lol... i can just imagine you communicating to someone in japan in advance of the event!!

you mention some transits in your 110pm jan 2nd post, which includes a chart, but the chart doesn't match the transits you refer to..
Saturn Square Mars -0°56’
Mars Square Mercury +0°01’[/b}

i do think stationary planets are very relevant.. trying to make predictions off of them would be interesting to see!! cheers james

Thanks James, I've put the progressed chart up twice by mistake so I'll rectify it...nice to know someone is actually looking at the charts!

The title is mentioned here - Uranus station for some reason astroseek doesn't allow you to entitle download charts.

Well I've completed 3 forecasts in the last 3 months and I hope to do more in the near future. You'll have to be a bit more patient - they will come I promise you!


BTW. Just noticed that Japan STARTED Pluto in Capricorn with a disaster (Fukoshima) and has ended its Ingress in likewise fashion. Just an observance.

The Fukushima nuclear accident was a major nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Ōkuma, Fukushima, Japan which began on March 11, 2011.

thanks greg! and i like your insights on the bottom of this post too.. keep on doing what you are doing..
