Very intriguing, Eva: the project and the book. I'd be happy to take a look at it. 2011 was quite the year for me in terms of natural phenomena: first, sheltering from a nearby tornado; then the earthquake; then, traveling through intense tropical storm downpours. I am not familiar yet with a Moon Persona chart, as I don't tend to use Astro.com very much, although I rely on the Astrodatabank: an amazing resource, a treasure for the entire astro community. I suspect the Persona chart may speak to me quite strongly. Thanks again, cheers.

Awesome, I messaged you the download code -- let me know if you didn't get it.

For me, the year 2011 and earthquakes will always relate to a different one than the one you have written about and that is the Fukushima quake, tsunami and nuclear disaster here in Japan. I still cannot believe it lasted over five minutes!

Anyway, I enjoyed your article.

Wow! I did not know about this earthquake, but looking at the chart, that North Node 20° Sagittarius looked familiar. I then realized it's similar to the chart of starting to write my novel Booby Prize on August 28, 2011. I abandoned the pursuit of publishing Booby Prize in 2016 and then rebooted it as a self-published astrology book at the end of 2022. The astrology component is about persona charts, one of the obscure options available on Astro.com. I used my Moon Persona chart to serve as the birth chart of the novel's protagonist. Then, when my Moon Persona chart received some dramatic transits in 2022, the novel was resurrected under strange circumstances.

Anyway, it's not an exact date match, but if you are on an August 2011 kick, it may be of interest to you. If you are in the US, I have an extra prepaid download code sitting around that I could gift to you (Amazon doesn't let me gift e-books internationally) -- message me if you want it.
