Earthquake and Hurricane Predictions Up Close and Personal, and Other Things on My Mind

On August 18 on Facebook, I wrote the following: "Speaking of crazy, while meditating today I felt a LONG rolling earthquake and thought "local" meaning U.S. Never hurts to be prepared y'all even if it doesn't happen." When I had meditated that afternoon, I not only felt the "long rolling earthquake" but a persistent thought of "local" kept running through my mind. Since D.C. never gets earthquakes, I thought "local" meant U.S. as opposed to all those quakes in Japan.

On August 19 I posted this on Facebook: "so I was right about the earthquake but it certainly wasn't in the U.S.: 6.8 earthquake hit Japan." I was a bit surprised that it wasn't in the U.S. because the "local" thought was so insistent, but I felt validated at my prediction (okay, half-way validated!).


On August 23 at 10:09 a.m. I posted this on Facebook: "My friend just sent me validation of my "local" (U.S.) earthquake vision: a 5.3 in Colorado. Another prediction: for those on the Southeast coast re Hurricane Irene, batten down the hatches y'all. Right at this moment I'm freaked about this storm, although hurricanes are notorious for changing course (let's all vibrationally veer it off-course, shall we?)." And then at 1:53 p.m. this: "omg - we just had an earthquake FOR REAL in my neighborhood - I can't stop shaking."

We did indeed have a "local" earthquake - up close and personal. And it was HELL. I first heard a loud rumbling sound, a cross between a freight train/thunder/preamble to an explosion. My first thought: earthquake, followed by: gas leak complete with thinking the house was about to blow sky high, then my final thought: D.C. is under attack and we're being nuked. And in the second it took for all three scenarios to cross my mind, the house started rolling in - yep - a "LONG rolling" and shaking motion that lasted almost 45 seconds. I watched my neighbors running outside but I stayed inside because 1) I was trying to stay upright and 2) I couldn't get the harnesses on my dogs because I couldn't keep my balance (I wasn't about to evacuate without The Girls). When the quake ended and I was finally able to go outside to talk to my neighbors, I realized the quake had affected my neurological system. My head wouldn't stop bobbing like one of the Bob-It Dolls. As I was speaking to my neighbors, I had to hold my face with both hands (I tried to make it look as if I was just putting my hands to my face, but they definitely looked at me questioningly). And my legs felt as if I was a puppet on a string - no coordination whatsoever. But I knew I wasn't in shock because I didn't have the shivers nor any other sign of shock other than my head and my legs not cooperating. I've had a muscular-neurological disorder for the last 12 years, and the quake just set it off BIG time; I'm still not back to "normal" and am having all sorts of issues walking. The horrible part about all this is that my head kept bobbing for almost TWO hours after the quake - completely freaky and uncomfortable and frustrating.


But I had a flash of when my disorder began - it was when we lived in Seattle from 1997-2000. My doctor referred me to a neurologist at the University of Washington who specialized in multiple sclerosis. I had a spinal tap and MRI of my brain and spinal column, and to everyone's huge surprise, I didn't have the typical lesions that are evident with MS sufferers. So my condition remains a "neurological-muscular disorder" without a defining name to accompany it, although the doctors all agree it's very real and very evident because of the other tests that confirmed it was MS (and which it's obviously not). Anyway, the reason I'm bringing this up is because I realized only today while driving with Jeff to get a wi-fi cellphone router that Seattle is earthquake prone. There WAS a small (noticeable) earthquake that happened while we lived there, although that quake happened after I was diagnosed (but that area has multiple seismic abnomalies on a routine basis). So today I thought oh, wow, I wonder if my disorder is actually caused by seismic activity or somehow related to the Earth's energy (as a living being)? Jeff pointed out that we haven't been in earthquake-prone area since Seattle (well, before this week, in any event) so that didn't make sense. But we lived in Bluemont VA until two years ago, and Bluemont is covered in quartz. Quartz is a conductor of energy. Even here in Falls Church I've found many quartz rocks in our backyard. What if the Earth's energy is affecting my neurological and muscular systems?


I obviously have some sort of really deep, profound connection to our Earth. I have felt and accurately predicted the earthquakes in Japan up to a week before they occurred. And I felt (and described the earthquake exactly as it came to be) our local earthquake in that same time frame. The reason I started thinking about my connection to the Earth with my disorder is because I read earlier today an astrologer's blog that Japan's earthquakes are happening on the 37th parallel - Virginia is on the 37th parallel as well. So am I able to feel everything that happens on the parallel in which I live? If I moved to another parallel would I then NOT be able to feel any earthquakes on the 37th but would instead feel anything happening on the new parallel? As to my connection to the Earth, I have said since as early as I can remember that I am of the Earth, that I am Earth-bound. I've tried to astral travel, and I'm sure on a dream level I often do. But I cannot for the life of me consciously astral travel. I've shrugged it off as being solely connected to Earth. Now I'm beginning to think there's a hell of a lot of validity to that. Another instance: I suffer from an agonizing vertigo. I've always been afraid of heights, but this goes way beyond that phobia. I now cannot even get on an escalator - I have to take an elevator, even in the Mall - without feeling as though I'm going to fall backwards by the third step. And the vertigo didn't start in earnest until, yep, you guessed it, we lived in Seattle. So I'm stuck firmly on Earth - literally stuck here. I refuse to fly for many reasons, but one is my vertigo.


On to the hurricane prediction of August 23 at 10:09: the hurricane should reach us tomorrow, and time will tell whether or not that's an accurate prediction. My feeling now is that it's valid; I believe we'll get massive flooding with at least some wind damage. I don't believe it will be along the lines of Hurricane Andrew in Homestead FL, but then I never did think that - after all, I didn't say "run!" but instead "batten down the hatches." As to loss of life, only the Universe is in charge of that, and I'm never shown bodies in natural disasters - only pictures of the disaster itself. Stay tuned...!
