Virginia Earthquake 26 August 2011
An unusually strong magnitude 5.8 earthquake struck central Virginia Tuesday afternoon and sent tremors along the East Coast, which prompted office buildings from Washington D.C. to New York to be evacuated. There were no immediate reports of injury or serious structural damage.The earthquake had an epicentre some 37 miles northwest of Richmond. It registered 5.8 on the Richter Scale and was only some four miles deep. The lack of depth of the occurrence accounts for the considerable effect the quake had covering such a wide area of countryside even as far as Canada. While no deaths have been reported, there have been several minor injuries and the widespread damage is estimated at $100,000,000. The magnitude of the quake in the area east of the Rocky Mountains was together with a quake in 1944 the largest since a quake in 1897.
The astrology in many ways speaks for itself. Scorpio 27-38 rises and forms a T-Square with Venus conjunct Sun in Virgo at the top of the chart and Neptune conjunct Chiron opposing the Sun. Uranus, the significator for earthquakes squares Pluto, the Ascendant ruler, and forms a quincunx to Venus and semi-sextile to Chiron. The stress of the circumstances is also indicated in the close square of Mars to Saturn. Saturn also forms a sesquiquadrate with Neptune as does Neptune with Mars. Jupiter also trines Pluto and sextiles Mars enhancing the power of the earthquake. Interestingly, the Uranus/|Pluto midpoint is conjunct Mercury making the nature clear of what is to be communicated. There are also reports emanating from Russia that Kremlin scientists are claiming the event was an underground nuclear explosion. This is based on the fact that earthquakes and underground nuclear explosions exhibit different seismology chart patterns. Earthquakes display primary waves before secondary waves which are slower. Nuclear explosions apparently don’t have any primary waves (P Waves) and seismology charts for this event don’t portray any P Waves.RM
Most of downtown D.C. was evacuated, including the U.S. Capitol, the Pentagon and other office buildings. Pictures on the wall in the Capitol building reportedly fell and panicked workers ran to the exits, apparently fearing a 9/11-style attack. Workers were initially told not to re-enter the buildings, but were later allowed to enter the Capitol building. Marine helicopters were seen hovering above the D.C, and there were reports that the Washington Monument may be tilting.The National Park Service later completed a secondary inspection of the Washington Monument and found some cracking in the stones at the top of the Monument, according to a press release. The NPS will have structural engineers evaluate the cracks on Wednesday to determine the best way to repair the Monument before reopening it to the public, said the statement. The press corp with President Obama in Martha's Vineyard said they felt slight shaking. Obama told reporters that he did not feel the tremor. Attorney General Eric Holder has been evacuated from the Department of Justice. Obama and many of the nation's leaders were out of town on August vacation when the quake struck at 1:51 p.m. local time.
