*Update on Earth Shakes

Updated – monthly update below the map…

Follow to see what is happening, especially near you…Fore-warned is fore-armed and you can take simple measures to stay safe, calm your fears and help others. The seismic activity is increasing, but remember these are natural events – we just happen to be part of it. Go with the flow…

The event predicted for the 22nd March 2012, as seen in the original post, has happened, but not quite how it was feared, thankfully.

As far as we know no Heavy Mass Object entered our atmosphere nor crashed into the Pacific Ocean, (or anywhere else) but what can be seen is an increase of activity around the Ring of Fire, or the Pacific Tectonic Plate. This is a good thing, because regular, frequent and numerous non-critical quakes and volcanic releases will ease the planet as she ‘tightens her belt’ to move through these extraordinary planetary alignments. The closer the alignments get – ready for the major event on 21st December – the more Earth will need to let off steam and shake herself to adjust – and that’s a good example for all of us! Most of the activity over the Spring Equinox period was just south or north of the Equator. (Mexico, Chile, Hawaii, Papua New Guinea, Vanuatu, Phillipines and Java, in the Pacific/Indonesia, with East Russia and West Alaska in the north. Also Mt Etna in Sicily, Santorini in Greece and the Canary Islands over in the Mediterranean/Atlantic and Turkey)

May – Most major activity around west and east of Pacific Rim as usual, with Japan still suffering, but a few more westward towards Mediterranean with 2 significant ones in Italy; 1 in mid Atlantic and a strong one west of Norway, which some say has shifted the Magnetic North. Total of 27 above M5.5.

June – Total of 36 above M5.5 – Panama and Japan rocking the boat at M6.3 – our thoughts and prayers with the folk living there. Out of 6,726 quakes in June, worldwide, 1,053 were noticable (above M2.5)

Watch as Mother Earth progresses and carries us through this year’s changes. Keep observing to be a part of this and allow your positive thoughts to guide your emotions – because there are likely to be some big releases. Remember – Volcanoes and Earthquakes happen a lot, all the time, always have, and sometimes people happen to be near them.

GRATITUDE – our beautiful world and some wise words…
