When the Feb earthquake hit I was ready for it because the Moon Man had warned us about the moon coming in alignment etc and I had been watching the moon get fuller and fuller... People scoffed, but then he said that on the next full moon we could expect more shaking. And we got more. He then said he would never "predict" earthquakes in NZ again because he was getting death threats (which is sooooo dumb, hello people, he was predicting them not making them happen!). Anyway in the interests of weeding out some potential earthquake related phobias I decided not to let myself watch the moon anymore. Not forever or anything, but just for a couple of years because every time I saw it (day or night, strangely you see it a lot during the day here) I kept trying to work out how much longer until it was full and we would have more seismic activity... But I did that so well that I forgot all about full moon gravity on the tectonic plates and then of course we had the M5.7 and the M6 on Monday and several others yesterday, and the M5 and M4.7 this morning... and then I noticed today that there is a full moon again... duh.
