The initial visual report of the eruption was at 23:52 GMT, when a red cloud was observed at the volcano, lightening up the sky above the eruptive site. The eruption was preceded with intense seismicity and high rates of deformation in the weeks before the eruption, in association with magma recharging of the volcano. Immediately prior to the eruption the depth of seismicity had become shallow, but was not significantly enhanced from what it had been in the previous weeks. Deformation was occurring at rates of up to a centimetre a day since March 4 at continuous GPS sites installed within 12 km from the eruptive site.&#8221; [End of quote.]<\/p>\n<p>Straight away we are looking right at the Aries Point. The Sun is at 15 arc minutes of Aries, right there. The Sun is precisely square Ceres in Capricorn and in a very close  opposition to Saturn in Libra. This is a Ceres chart, no matter what other bits and bobs may show up: the Sun is applying in a [just a shade over] two arc minute square to Ceres (1\/30th of a degree), so that is the focal point of the chart. The Sun is also precisely trine Mars (the ruler of the ascendant), which is in the first degree of Leo &#8212; still in the degree where it stationed direct 10 days earlier. The Moon is void of course in Taurus, in the 8th house, still closely square Chiron and Neptune. The crucial last aspect was to Chiron. The Moon is also applying to the fixed star Alcyone in the first degree of Gemini.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here&#8217;s the chart for the volcanic eruption in southern Iceland.
