Possible signature
There is a rather close out-of-sign opposition between Sun (conjunct
Venus, both in Virgo) and Neptune (late AQU), god of earthquakes. The
Sun/Venus-conjunction occupies the midpoint of a Mars/Saturn-square
(Cancer/Libra).

Furthermore, the stressed Sun/Venus are trining Pluto in early CAP and
Jupiter at 10 TAU.

Ascendant at epicenter is in Scorpio, ruled by Mars, which is involved
in the above described pattern.

Taking a look at the angles, the meridian had just passed the Sun-Nep
opposition, and become mixed up with Jupiter, Pluto and Mars. That's MC tr
Jupiter tr Pluto; Mars opp Pluto and sx MC and Jupiter. Though actually the
IC might be more relevant, with its obvious link to "underground". Either
way, combustible. Maybe this is two stages - first activating Sun opp Nep
and perhaps marking some kind of slippage underground, then the Jup-Mar-Plu
mess for the actual quake.

I didn't know Neptune was god of earthquakes. Uranus seems a more obvious
suspect - in fact, R. Tomaschek analysed all earthquakes over magnitude 7.75
over 49 years, and found that Uranus was within an hour of the meridian
almost twice as often as by chance (significance, 1 in 1000). (Can't resist
a good study!) But I suppose one still needs a signifier for the cases when
it wasn't!

This was an interesting choice of words. Underground volatility is, if
my memory serves me right, a common cause for earthquakes. And the
volatility itself is often caused by water entering empty crevices
underground, where there is tension but the dry materials have not
allowed for movement.

Neptune near IC could thus be a very exact marker of what initiated
the earthquake in this case. I shall see if I can find more info on
the earthquake and why it happened!

Honestly, that Neptune is god of earthquakes is a factoid I have from
the ancient mythology, not from any astrological textbook. However, it
is also the god of oceans and waves and also, I suspect, tsunamis. I
think it is not unlikely at all that the ancients would have known
about the connection between earthquakes and tsunamis, making the
connection a rather solid one.

I did google just now to check, and I found astrologically oriented
pages that agreed with me on the rulership, so I am inclined to think
this is correct. Actually, I have taken it for granted, as the
previous post showed, as I find it is rarely that astrology
contradicts mythology. But it is a good thing you asked about it, so I
got a chance to clarify this!

or a trigger, at least, to the charge set by the approaching* Ur/Pl
square.

*separating right now, actually, but still less than two degrees, with
the exact square yet to come.

Pluto represents tectonic plates to me. Uranus represents their sudden
rearrangement in relation to each other. Neptune doesn't seem to
resonate for this.

I have googled to see what our astrological compatriots on the
Internet are saying, and it seems that there are those who like me
would use Neptune for general signification.

That said, myself I base my idea on myth, as I wrote, and I do agree
with Pluto for the plates and Uranus for suddenness. The only thing I
could think of, from a modern perspective, to explain Neptune would be
if there is of necessity fluids involved in earthquakes. Whether or
not that is so, I do not know.

I got roughly the same number of hits on "earthquakes Neptune" as I
did on "earthquakes Pluto", so I don't know.

I did notice the approaching Ur/Pl square for this one ("Eastern USA")
in Mineral, Va (about 40 miles from me, and about 12 miles from a
nuclear power plant).
