New Zealand Shaking, And Now Pacific-Antarctic Tectonic Plate Boundary Has Shaken, Too!!! Full Moon Coming This Weekend!!! And New "Clock-Wise Earthquake Minute" Too!!! CLICK ARROW:

Update on the movement of the Pacific Tectonic Plate!!!  Having now been watching out there in the middle of the Pacific where lot of things are shaking, today I'm saying "Counter-Clockwise"!!!  Did I say it looked as if it was turning "Clock-Wise" earlier, or think it was turning clock-wise while inadvertantly saying Counter-Clock-Wise!?  So, I went to the sheet where I keep all these big windstorms, etc. recorded and noticed that if New Zealand continues to shake, it appears most likely the Pacific Tectonic Plate is turning COUNTER Clock-Wise!!!  True as they tend to say it is supposed to routinely turn like a few centimeters a year. . . in that direction!  Today giving us, if all that is true, less chance for Anchorage at least until the West Coast of South America gets theirs, and probably San Andreas Fault somewhere along that line, too!!!  That's the update, but do let me tell you Pacific Tectonic Plate does seem to be moving and that should explain all the shaking at New Zealand that was so predictable!  Predictable indeed that a big one could yet strike there and Exact Moment of the February 2021 Full Moon Early Saturday Morning at  3:20am with the Full Moon Window starting Early Friday!!!

All that said and this one came in Wednesday!!!!!  Wellington!!!  Of course New Zealand shaking yet again!!!  This one shook there early Wednesday. . .

As old as the general idea is about the Full Moon having some relationship with earthquakes, we are right now as I'm writing this looking at such places as the French Polynesian Islands and once again Santiago, Chile!!!  For places where this as big as about a 9 Magnitude Major Earthquake with possible Tsunami might strike!!!  Beyond Chile is Central America, San Andreas Fault, Vancouver Island and Anchorage where you can almost always count on at least some shaking as the result of this type of movement of the Pacific Tectonic Plate such as we're probably right now looking at!!!!!
