“Planetary geometry is difficult to interpret with four conjunctions spread out over the next 10 days. As far as I can tell, 1-3 October will be more critical”, Hoogerbeets wrote in a post on social media platform X, originally launched as Twitter, predicting that Pakistan’s Bluchistan area could be hit by an earthquake in the next 48 hours.
