Cosmic Gravity plays soccer with Planet Earth

Am I ready for the World Cup in my country? If you’re in Plett it doesn’t matter because the World Cup probably won’t even filter down to Robberg beach. It will probably wash up against the shores of Knysna Heads with flair. That’s if Iceland’s main export doesn’t start spewing into the air and blocking half the flights to the World Cup – the European half. And that includes players. I wonder what the stats are of it happening? Curiously there is talk of a major planetary configuration taking place throughout the duration of the football and beyond, with peak dates at the full moon on the 26th of June and again afterwards at the end of July. The first sees the partial Lunar eclipse lining up the Sun, Moon and Mercury with a tense and tight t-square between Pluto on the one hand and Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus on the other. That means seven of the ten main bodies inhabiting our solar system are involved in a multiple grand cross. And it turns out that two researchers were able to reasonably accurately predict the time and geographic location of the Sumatra Earthquake, using astronomical data about the larger planets in our solar system. This lead to the conclusion that distance and angular relation of the solar system is in fact part of what triggers earthquakes, once again showing how interlinked we are with cosmos. Wow; if it can cause an earthquake, what are the chances it can disrupt a volcano? Luckily the players will be here by then. In which case the Garden Route can treat the visitors to a hospitable stay and maybe even get a few autographs. May fetch something on ebay. Either way the World Cup can be a valuable experience for all involved. If you don’t want to be involved, there’s always Plett.
And according to some physicists at a university in Paris there is a connection between the Earth’s changing shape and the gravitational effects of other bodies in the solar system, particularly Jupiter and Saturn, who both dwarf us. Which makes it possible that, with enough of a pull to shift the Earth’s plates, volcanic activity could well be stimulated. The planets involved are all at 90 degree or 180 degree angles to each other - give or take three degrees - creating what is considered a challenging or tension-filled relationship between the planets involved. At least we are clear of the volcanic fallout here in the southern hemisphere, but the t-square affects all of us, particularly those born around the first few days of any of the cardinal signs, namely Aries, Cancer, Libra or Capricorn. As for the second peak of this extended t-square aspect, that occurs at the end of July and I’ll mention more about it then.
