Certain facts in this story are out of date; it originally ran Friday.
While many in the Northern Hemisphere welcomed the equinox and the arrival of autumn, recent weeks have arrived with an unusual cluster of natural events around the world. These events coincide with unusual Aries Point activity, astrology that has a way of rippling into the lives of many people.
Wednesday night, a magnitude 7.6 earthquake struck the Indonesian island of Sumatra, the sixth largest island in the world. According to published reports, by Thursday night it was known that more than 1,2000 people had been killed in the city of Padang and nearby areas, which were just 30 miles from the epicenter. Sumatra was the scene of the infamous 2004 earthquake, which had an epicenter 155 miles off the coast of Banda Aceh, on the northern end of the island. An estimated 130,000 people were killed in the 2004 magnitude 9.2 quake and subsequent tsunamis.
One day before the Sumatra quake, another earthquake in the South Pacific sent tsunami waves crashing into the Samoas. Thursday that the tally of the dead had risen to at least 160 and property damage was widespread, according to the Chicago Tribune.
The magnitude 8.0 quake struck off Samoa at 6:48 a.m. local time (1:48 p.m. EDT; 17:48 GMT) Tuesday. The islands soon were engulfed by four tsunami waves 15 to 20 feet (4 to 6 meters) high that reached up to a mile (1.5 kilometers) inland.
The Samoas lie about halfway between New Zealand and Hawaii, ust east of the international date line. Some of the islands are an unincorporated American territory.
Meanwhile, the second tropical cyclone in less than a week is bearing down on the Philippines. Typhoon Parma threatens the island nation in the western Pacific Ocean with catastrophic flooding, mudslides and destructive winds tonight into Saturday. While part of the large typhoon will stay offshore, the northeastern part of Luzon province is expected to be hard hit.
Just days ago, Tropical Storm Ketsana brought massive flooding to Manila, the Philippine capital, following close to 20 inches of rain in some areas.
September was also a month of heavy rains in the Southeastern United States, especially in Georgia. Devastating flooding resulted, and images of the impact of rising waters can be seen at the website of the Citizen-Times of Asheville, NC.
Meanwhile, in Australia there were both floods and fires in the past weeks, as well as the gigantic dust storm that swept in from the Outback to cover Sydney, coloring the skies (and everything else) in red and orange.
As for the adage that “everyone talks about the weather but no one does anything about it,” British astrophysicist Piers Corbyn predicts extreme weather events around the globe using “predictable aspects of particle and magnetic effects from the Sun.” Check out his September 2009 forecast on YouTube.
TYPHON: A DEADLY MONSTER OF GREEK MYTHOLOGY, THOUGHT TO CAUSE VOLCANIC ERUPTIONS, HOT DANGEROUS WINDSTORMS, EARTHQUAKES AND TSUNAMIS.
LACHESIS: THE SECOND OF THE 3 “FATES”, SHE’S THE ONE WHO MEASURES THE THREAD OF LIFE AND DECIDES WHEN TO CUT IT OFF.
These two astral bodies were keeping company with Saturn at the Autumnal Equinox on 9/22 and also at the New Moon on 9/18.
Mercury was retrograde at 29+ Virgo, but when he went direct at 21+ Virgo on the morning of September 29, that’s where Typhon was (in the Autumnal Equinox chart). This was right after the massive storm that had hit the Philippines and killed 140 people had been upgraded to a typhoon and was heading for Vietnam.
Saturn was/is opposed Uranus, unpredictable, shocking Uranus. Saturn had in his entourage (in the New Moon chart) the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Makemake, Pallas Athena, Typhon, Logos, Sappho, Lachesis, Apophis. Uranus had Juno for companionship.
Apophis is Greek but the Egyptian’s called him Apep. He’s an evil demon, the diefication of darkness and chaos.
Nice group.
