Also called 1920 Gansu earthquake. Estimated deaths (bizarrely precise for estimates) were between 258,7807 and 273,407, one of the deadliest earthquakes I've ever studied. It was magnitude 8.25 or 7.8 depending on the scale used. Three years of aftershocks followed.

The Capsolar and Caplunar are Saturn-Uranus charts, definitely good. The Cansolar mostly sucks EXCEPT it provides the bridge and therefore has the lead at the Day level where it brings Mars two different ways to slam the area.

Year: Capsolar {+2}
Uranus on Asc 2°57'
Saturn on WP 1°58'
Venus, Jupiter, and Neptune more widely foreground
-- Venus-Saturn sq 1°28'
-- Sa/Ne on angle 0°30'
Moon-Mercury 0°13' M
Moon-Jupiter sq 0°46'

Bridge {+2}
CanQ Moon co s/p Mercury 12/2-1/22
t Mars on Cansolar angles 12/14-19 and 12/21-26
Event window: Dec 14-19 & 21-26

Quarter: Libsolar (Silent.)

Quarter: Cansolar {-2}
The angularities suck. The aspects, especially the closest ones, are mostly good!
Venus on Dsc 1°09'
Jupiter in WP 1°22'
Moon on Dsc 2°06'
Sun, Mercury, Mars, and Neptune more widely angular
-- Mercury-Neptune co 0°38'
-- Moon-Mars sq 0°46'
-- Moon-Venus co 0°56' M
-- Moon-Sun co 2°32' M
-- Sun-Venus co 3°28'
-- Mo/Me on angle 0°38'
-- Su/Me on angle 0°38'

Month: Caplunar {+2}
Uranus on MC 0°54'
Sun on Dsc 1°33'
Mercury on WP 1°14'
Saturn on N 1°21'
-- Mercury-Uranus sq 0°52'
-- Sun-Uranus sq 2°28' M
-- Sun sq non-fore Jupiter 2°56'

Day: Cansolar Quotidian & Transits {+2}
p Moon co s Mercury 0°31' [Mercury-Neptune co 0°45', but Moon not partile to Neptune]
p Asc sq s Mars 0°08'
----------------------------
t Mars co s EP-a 0°31'

Day: Capsolar Quotidian & Transits {at least +1}
(At first glance, this looks better than this, because ingress Mars-Neptune are near angles - but they're both outside the 2° orb. Same with transiting Mars. A single Neptune is OK, just not as good as TWO Mars-Neptunes would have been.)
p MC sq t Neptune 0°59'
-------------------------------
t Mercury co s MC 1°47'
