Map showing Eclipse, Earthquakes and Astro*Carto*Graphy lines

This map of central Asia shows the path of totality and the shadow of the July 22 '09 Solar Eclipse superimposed over an Astro*Carto*Graphy map. The A*C*G map is set for 02:36 [GMT/UT] on 22 July 2009.
Note for Astrologers: If you wish to construct this ACG map, you can set it for any location on Earth provided the time zone is correct. For example, this would be 03:36 BST for London.
    Earthquake Timetable: Around the Eclipse there have been several significant earthquakes including:
  1. NZ earthquake [7.8] causing a mini-tsunami 09:22 15 July 2009 GMT/UT
  2. NZ earthquake [4.5] 20:04 19 July 2009
  3. Iran earthquake [5.5] during totality 03:53 22 July 2009
  4. China (Tibet) earthquake [5.7] within shadow of Eclipse on 03:12 24 July 2009
With the Moon at proxigee, this was going to be the longest Total Solar Eclipse this century. (Perigee is the closest point to the Earth during a single orbit.) The Moon is at proxigee when it is at the closest perigee during the year. Scientists have used these exceptional conditions to experiment into possible gravitational anomalies. [Article]
Scientific Astrology? This is an area where astrology and hard science overlap. For some scientists and publishers like Nature, it is an uncomfortable zone. Evidence that might reveal that what was once dismissed as 'old wive's tales' is actually based on fact can be disturbing to a certain world-view. Sceptics like to say that this is not astrology because it is scientific. However, since astrology has always addressed the correlations between celestial movements and terrestrial events and experiences, it is well within our realm.

I am open to the possibility that these might be random events with no connection. The relationship between the Moon and geophysical events such as the tides, volcanoes and tectonic shifts is likely to be causal and down to gravity and resonance. It will require great advances in science to be able to address the more subtle concept of synchronicity which is the current working model used by most astrologers.
Human experience @ the Eclipse: Frequently reported experiences during the time of the Eclipse included headaches and accidents resulting in broken glass objects.
Astro*Carto*Graphy Lines: The overlayed Astro*Carto*Graphy map shows which planets were angular at the time of the greatest eclipse. This throws up the position of Mars (violence, self-assertion) over the town of Urumuchi where there have been protests between the Uighurs and Han Chinese. It is also near the Chinese/Tibetan Earthquake and through the disputed region of Tibet. I have included the overlay for interest value as the connections are speculative and need research.
Astrologers in China: I look forward to hearing news from two astrologer/friends: Henry Seltzer and Patty Greenall who went independently to China to witness the Eclipse!

China & Mundane Astrology: For some well researched astrological work go to Hakan Kirkoglu's article on China's Future Revolution. Though written in 2007-2008, his insights appear to be increasingly relevant today.

Thanks to astrologers Laura Boomer, Linda Reid, Steven Forrest and Hakan Kirkoglu for alerting me to the astrological, astronomical and geophysical information and their observations.
