Champlain Towers South building collapse

[Jim Eshelman]

At around 1 a.m. EDT on June 24, 2021, Champlain Towers South, a 12-story beachfront condominium building in the Miami suburb of Surfside, Florida. 35 people have been rescued, 1 known dead, and 99 missing.

UPDATE 7/26: 98 dead, 11 injured. Here is the Wikipedia article collating data: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surfside_ ... g_collapse
Coordinates can now be given as 25N52'23", 80W07'15". Wikipedia and CNN are now saying "about 1:25 AM EDT," so I'll need to recalculate slightly if using this in the future. (It's now a big enough deal to take seriously, I think.) The building name is Champlain Towers South.

Structural collapses tend to have angular Mars and Pluto (but not Moon, Mercury, or benefics) and Moon aspects with Uranus, Neptune, and Sun (but not Venus and Jupiter). Benefic involvement, in other words, is absent. However, Venus-Pluto and Jupiter-Saturn aspects are among the most common foreground aspects followed by Sun-Saturn, Mars-Pluto, and Uranus-Pluto. Jupiter has a tendency to fall on angles but only if aspected by Saturn or Uranus.

Let's see what we get, therefore, for June 24, 2021, 1:00 AM EDT, Surfside, FL. NOTE 7/11: Now that the event time is likely 1:25 instead of 1:30, Jupiter backs away from Nadir. Sun is 0°44' from IC with Moon nearly opposite, with Moon not far past her perigee, so tidal forces were strong (probably near high tide).

At the time of the collapse, a Moon-Neptune square was on the angles for the location - and also on the CapQ angles! Venus-Pluto was the closest aspect in space. Moon-Neptune themes recur, which is quite common for these events.
