Lunar Eclipse of April 25, 2013 and California

The lunar eclipse of April 25, 2013 takes place at 12:57:10 pm in California at 5 degrees 46 minutes Scorpio conjoining the Rising degree on the California chart.  It is a partial eclipse and not visible in California, but the eclipse conjoins the 4th house cusp set in Los Angeles and San Franciso  .  Saturn occupies the 4th house along with the north node in the eclipse chart.  According to HS Green any conjunctions or oppositions from  planets Mars outward to Pluto combined with the luminaries increases the chance of earthquakes.  At the time of the lunar eclipse, Mars and Saturn are in opposition and in conjunction with the luminaries and the IC/MC axis.  Mars rules the eclipse as the closest aspecting planet to the luminaries and is in the sign of its detriment, Taurus.  According to Raphael, the first decanate of Scorpio lunar eclipse portends horrible thunderstorms, and perhaps an earthquake.
California is at  considerable risk for a sizable quake with this eclipse eventhough it's not visible in the United States.  Transiting Mars opposes the eclipse degree on the 27th of April at the same time the Moon is perigee (or closest approach to earth.) If a quake is to happen in Southern California, this would be a likely date when the Transiting Sun conjoins the Lunar Eclipse MC cusp at 7 Taurus and Transiting Mars opposes the eclipse degree. Take care and be prepared for whatever happens.
