Earthquake WARNING: Major tremor could hit TODAY – shock claim


The positions of Earth, Mars, Mercury, Venus and the Sun will cause mega-tremors on our planet, an earthquake ‘mystic’ has claimed. The moon will play a huge role too, if any earthquake is to come, as it has just begun a new lunar cycle. This is because the other celestial bodies in our solar system are pulling on Earth through their gravity, causing tension to build in Earth’s tectonic plates, he claims.

Once the tension is unleashed, it could end with a major quake across the globe.

There is no indication as to when or where the predicted earthquakes may strike, but it could be a tremor around magnitude six, which “may cause a lot of damage in very populated areas”, according to experts.

The prediction was made by earthquake ‘forecasting’ website Ditrianum, run by researcher Frank Hoogerbeets, which said: Due to critical lunar geometry there is a slight possibility that seismic activity will reach mid to high 6 magnitude in the next two days.”

The Dutch researcher reached his conclusion using his Solar System Geometry Index (SSGI) which “is the computation of a dataset for a specific time-frame of values given to specific geometric positions of the planets, the Moon and the Sun”.

He said: “After three years of observations, it became clear that some planetary geometry in the Solar System clearly tends to cause a seismic increase, while other geometry does not.”

But experts have previously dismissed Mr Hoogerbeets’ claims, saying that there is no way earthquakes can be predicted.

John Bellini, a geophysicist at the US Geological Survey (USGS) has said: “We can’t predict or forecast earthquakes.

“Sometimes before a large earthquake you’ll have a foreshock or two, but we don’t know they’re foreshocks until the big one happens.”

However, there is some suggestion that Mr Hoogerbeets did correctly predict the powerful 7.3 magnitude quake which hit on March 1 in Peru.

He wrote on his website prior to the quake: “Specific lunar geometry today could cause some seismic increase in the next two days, possibly into the 6 magnitude range.”

Following the quake, which was actually stronger than Mr Hoogerbeets had predicted, he said: “A quake watch was in effect on February 28 and March 1 because of critical lunar geometry on February 27, as discussed.”

But it is likely to be a coincidence, as Peru is prone to earthquakes as the South American nation sits upon the dreaded Ring of Fire.

The Ring of Fire is the largest and most active fault line in the world, stretching from New Zealand, all around the east coast of Asia, over to Canada and the USA and all the way down to the southern tip of South America and causes more than 90 percent of the world’s earthquakes.

Experts know that the Ring of Fire has to potential to unleash some catastrophic quakes.
