Abstract: This scholarly inquiry embodies a classic convergence of astrology and astronomy, aiming to explore the deeper causal relationships between eclipses, planetary alignments, and terrestrial seismic events (earthquakes). It examines the intricate interplay between celestial configurationsparticularly Solar and Lunar eclipsesand the timing of earthquakes, advancing a compelling hypothesis of astro-geophysical synergy. Grounded in the classical astrological frameworks of the Brihat Parasara Hora Shastra and Brihat Samhita, the study introduces a novel analytical paradigm designed to identify critical planetary alignments and celestial markers that may function as temporal indicators of increased earthquake likelihood.
At the core of this model is a detailed examination of eclipse intervalsparticularly sequences of solar and lunar eclipsesand their spatial-temporal resonance with major planetary actors, notably Saturn and Mars. The research delineates how the mutual aspects, oppositions, and transitory dynamics of these malefic planetswhen aligned with eclipse cyclesmay exert a destabilising influence on tectonic structures, precipitating geo-seismic disturbances within sensitive terrestrial corridors.
The investigation further identifies a series of high-risk temporal windows, characterised by harmonic resonances and eclipse-induced gravitational perturbations, which correspond with heightened seismic clustering in the historical dataset spanning from 1988 to 2024. Through systematic correlation and planetary motion modelling, the study elevates the conversation around predictive seismology by incorporating astrological archetypes as potential long-range forecasting tools.
Beyond its empirical analysis, this work endeavours to recontextualise ancient cosmological systems within the framework of contemporary natural sciences. It posits that refined astrological methodologieswhen rigorously appliedmay enhance anticipatory frameworks for natural disaster preparedness, thereby reopening an interdisciplinary dialogue between archaic wisdom traditions and modern geoscientific paradigms.
