6.0 magnitude earthquake strikes NE Pacific Rise

 
March 26, 2012MEXICO –  A 6.0 magnitude earthquake erupted along a boundary of the Pacific and Cosco tectonic plates at a depth of 9.9 km (6.1 miles) known as the Northeast Pacific Rise. The earthquake erupted after the region was shaken by double 5.0+ foreshocks. The epicenter of the 6.0 earthquake was 862 km (535 miles) SSW of Acapulco, Guerrero, Mexico. The region is still reeling from the effects of the 7.4 earthquake which struck Oaxaca Mexico on March 20. The red squares on the tectonic plate map (above) reflect the  earthquakes that have struck tectonic plate boundaries over the last 24 hours. It is a clear indication that seismic stresses continue to mount along some of these high-risk regions. –The Extinction Protocol

    Look at how many earthquakes have happened in the last 24hours. More and more and stronger and stronger too. Our world is convulsing!

    With these ever increasing earthquakes and the severity of them, it looks like a lot of folks will be, “getting ready to meet the saints”.

    There was a 3.1 in VA last night (3/25/12) after 11:00pm and felt by many. Hopefully this does not turn out to be something higher than the 5.8 in VA August 2011. They are saying this was another aftershock!!

    Well the more i read & learn about this stuff, i’m beginning to believe some of the ancient stories/ legends from all around the world, that this planet will start to change around this time…although i rather it didn’t lol.

      Although we have always had these events through history, the all of a sudden intensity of the storms, warm winters, and earthquakes in the unusual places really makes me take notice.

    I thought you might find this interesting.

    There have been about 514 leap years since Caesar created it in 45BC.
    Without the extra day every 4 years todat would be august 2013.

    Also the Mayan calendar did not account for leap year ….so technically the world should have ended 8months ago.

    I believe this is just mother earth doing what she has done for millions of year…..or sadly to say to man playing with things they should not.

    • If she did what she did millions of years ago…that’s all the more reason to worry. We had 5 geological extinctions in the past. Gaia has experienced more violence and trauma in nature that she has had periods of calm- it’s the nature of a planet ruled by forces of fire with a cracked lithosphere. No one here has said the world was ending in 2012. We don’t know when the end will come but we can be sure of one thing, if these events continue to worsen; few of us may be around to ultimately find out.

        I agree with you. We do not know and can only believe that our earth will never end as it did in Noah’s day. Thanks for posting this comment among others.

      I dont’t believe the Mayan’s said the the world would end in 2012. I think it was said that the world would change as we know it, and man would return to nature.

      As for what man’s activity on the planet has contributed to events taking place now (or at any time), I believe it has little relevance, because these events would take place with or without us being here as they have in the Earth’s past history.

      That being said, I think that it is asinine for man to suppose that we have caused these events and arrogant to think that we can stop them.

    The World Wont end… But Humans might not be walking on it or very few might be…But just cause the mayan calander predects dec 21 doesnt mean something wont happen to some extent… There will always be natural disasters.. Something like yellowstone or one the other 5 or 6 super volcanos can really alter life on this planet… They say the sun will eventually engulf the earth several million years from now or something, but i doubt humans will be on this planet by then.. never know :p

    We are having little earthquakes near Long Beach, California. From EarthquakeTrack.com 28March 2012 “San Pedro Channel California has had 3 earthquakes today. 9 earthquakes in the past 7 days. Today’s largest 3.3 This week’s largest 3.6” At home, southsideLB, we don’t feel them. Today near the VA Hospital, eastsideLB, a friend heard the boom then felt 2 jolts. Our last storm threatened to send waterspouts ashore. We & our neighbors have mice for the first time. What are they escaping? Wanted to share a local snapshot. Namaste.

      Thank you for sharing that bit of information. You are spot on. Something is making them relocate. The animals can sense danger long before we can. During the big tsunami Christmas season 2004, the animals made a break for higher ground prior to it striking. I don’t think there was one animal floating amongst all the debris. I believe many reporters made mention of the lack of dead animals.

      Once one summer while traveling across country on I-30 in Arkansas, a tornado struck. I got off the highway and sought refuge in a motel parking lot which was situated high on a hill out of the path of the tornado.

      I watch a trucker hauling cattle release them from the back of the trailer, and the entire herd marched right into a ravine like area about 50 to 100 feet from the roadway and the trucker followed, they did survived the storm. I think if the animal are seeking safe haven for one reason or another. When we see the anilams leave, we should get out of Dodge as well.

      How come there has been nothing on tv or radio about these things happening where you live and where others live? Have to read this interesting news on this site. I love it. Thanks Rozee for sharing!

        The media at large is censoring at lot of information. Thank God for a website such as this one. I beleive that soon it will become worse and more apparent and they won’t be able to hide it anymore.
