New earthquake in northern Italy

From BBC News:
"A new earthquake has struck the Emilia region in northern Italy, killing at least 15 people and leaving several others trapped under rubble.

Tuesday's tremor, estimated at magnitude 5.8, hit the same region where a quake 10 days ago killed seven people and destroyed many buildings. Buildings damaged by the first quake have now collapsed in Mirandola, Finale Emilia, San Felice and Cavezzo, Italian media report. Milan and Bologna were shaken too.

The quake struck 40km (25mi) north of Bologna and 60km east of Parma, at a depth of 9.6km (six miles). It was felt as far away as Venice and the Austrian border.

Many people ran out of buildings when they felt the tremor, which struck at 09:03 local time (07:03 GMT)."

This deadly quake would seem to confirm the national horoscope for Italy (June 10, 1946) mentioned in previous posts, with Neptune now transiting the natal 4th house cusp (weather & earthquakes), that was triggered by the May 20 solar eclipse. Retrograde Venus is partile conjunct Italy's natal North Node of fateful events. (Venus is debilitated when retrograde, and the Moon's Nodes are eclipse points.)

The chart for today's quake features Uranus on the Midheaven square Pluto- while the quake 10 days ago had Pluto on the Midheaven square Uranus. This epic square reflects sudden shocks and upheavals, of various kinds. (And there are 7 exact Uranus-Pluto squares from June 24, 2012 to Mar. 17, 2015.) The ruler of the event Ascendant (25 Cancer) is Luna, that's tightly conjunct violent Mars- Moon = 13.58 Virgo = Mars 13.40 Virgo. And Saturn (23 Libra) squaring the earthquake Ascendant is also stressful.
