Within the past few days, we have seen an enormous
magnitude 7.3 earthquake hit Venezuela and a giant
magnitude 8.2 earthquake hit Fiji. Where will the next one strike?
To many of us, it is becoming exceedingly clear that something very unusual is happening to our planet.
I went and looked it up, and I was astounded to learn that the crust of
the Earth has been shaken by 144 major earthquakes over the last 7 days, and that includes
more than 50 on Sunday alone.
And remember, these are not small earthquakes. The USGS considers any earthquake that is at least
magnitude 4.5 to be "significant", and they are
happening so rapidly right now that it is difficult to keep up with them....
...The other day I noted that the
magnitude 8.2 quake that just hit Fiji was the
second largest "deep focus" earthquake ever recorded, and this quake in Venezuela was
highly unusual as well.
In fact, seismologist Stephen Hicks says that it was one of
"the largest ever recorded" in that entire region...
M7.3 earthquake today along the northern coast of Venezuela is one of the largest ever recorded earthquakes along the boundary between the Caribbean & South American plates. There was an M7.7 quake to the west in 1900 but this will have preceded detailed instrumental recordings
And this earthquake came right on the heels of an
extremely active 48 hours for global seismic activity....
...It simply is not "normal" for 144 major earthquakes to happen in just one week. In addition,
dozens of volcanoes are currently erupting all over the globe. We appear to have entered a time when the crust of our planet is going to become increasingly unstable, and it doesn't take a genius to figure out that this is going to have very serious implications for the future of our society.
