EARTHQUAKE UPDATE October 17, 2025

EARTHQUAKE UPDATE October 17, 2025

​​​​​UPDATE: October 17, 2025

Synopsis and Symptoms:

The day has been pretty much a repeat of yesterday. Since I was so late getting the update out I did not get to sleep till about 5:30 AM and then I had to be up at 8:00 Went back to sleep ( dozed ) on and off due to being awakened by a cat jumping into the middle of my stomach… then checking and responding to my texts got up about 12:15 PM and then mostly had business to take care of… Then I brought in fire wood this afternoon and once that was done it was time to start the blog. The balance was about the same… but there has been alot of back pains and leg pains today. Had a meltdown on Thursday night no idea why I am going to blame it on Chile. This can include Antofagasta, Maule, Bio Bio Chile, Tarapaca and Coquimbo all can be affected with the recent activity.
HEADACHE:
The headache was mostly a duplicate of yesterday. L and R side brow bones and temple to temple. The R side has been a it more active and more painful due to the number of quakes in both Alaska and Philippines.. and then we look at the L side and Chile continues to cause the spaciness and a sense of feeling disconnected what ever term you want to use. Chile, Chile, Chile that’s ‘what it feels like. * Mindanao, Luzon, Manila, Metro Cebu.
It was bad enough I ever closed the door on my own hand. It not only hurt, it was a good indication it was not a good day to drive today.
The Temple to Temple headache says more for WA/OR and Northern and Central CA with the activity being often on land or offshore… The Geysers and Healdsburg or Cloverdale hot springs Mammoth Lakes, Bishop, Coalinga and even into the Loma Prieta Quake Zone. Eureka to the Bay and can be all the way to SF Bay.
The brow bone pains come and go… mostly its the L side but at times like today it hit the R side too.. The areas that connect to this symptom are volcanic in origin most of the areas that go with the Temple to Temple area are also of volcanic origin from The Geysers, to the Hot Springs, to Mammoth, Bishop and of course the Cascades of Oregon and Washington.
EARACHE:
The L earache is China, Pakistan, Afghanistan and India/Myanmar. The quakes continue in all locations but the ones in Pakistan which seemed to show up suddenly after the quakes in Afghanistan. I am watching Sultan volcano but no eruption but ongoing geothermal activity which makes this a site being considered for geothermal exploration. More quakes in India and Myanmar. The earaches and stomach pains on and off…. Still watching both Andaman and Nicobar Islands.. of India.
The R side earache is Taiwan, Leeward, Windward, Trinidad, Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico and Nicaragua.
Recent quakes in Taiwan continues, Virgin Islands Puerto Rico and Nicaragua.
Both ears hurting together or one and the other this one would be large water event or eruption of a volcano.
CHEST:
Sharp chest pains...Southern CA specifically Imperial Valley and into Mexico, Borrego Springs, El Centro and Ocotillo Wells.. quakes in India and Myanmar. Again, the sharp chest pains, stomach pains in India hit in sync the same as in Borrego Springs. Italy can have sharp chest pains, the quakes and the ones over 6.5 in Japan. These can also be connected to Palm Springs, Whittier Pasadena and Burbank as well as Hawaii..India can cause some L side earache but many times its more chest and stomach pains.
Achy Chest pains: OR/WA/Cascades, Sierras, The Geysers, Coalinga, Alaska, Philippines Turkey and more.
The R side chest pains which was always Puebla MX but recently I have seen a possible potential connection to Drake Passage quakes as well continue to watch for a connection.
BACK:
Mid upper back:
This is Turkey and the quakes continue unabated.. dozens today. These are often connected to quakes in the Aegean Caspian and Ionian Seas. Dodecanese Islands of both Turkey and Greece.. Crete also connects to Turkey.
Full upper back pains…
This area is part of Indonesia and there has been a lot of recent quakes in multiple locations. Sumatra, Java, Irian Jaya, Nias, and Halmahera, Sulawesi..or Minahasa Sulawesi. Lewotobi volcano had another major eruption with lava flows and ash today
The Shoulder blades:
The R shoulder blade pains is Kuril Islands… this is pretty much stand alone but in realty some of the recent quakes in Kamchatka are given the location of Kuril Islands but I found that the Kuril Islands are claimed by both Russia and Japan.
The L shoulder blade: This is Japan most all locations and most often are connected to East Coast of Honshu and Hokkaido, Kyushu and Ryukyu Islands. This one causes sharp and deep nerve pain and spasm which always results in a quake over 7.0-7.4+
Mid Lower Back Pains:
The R mid lower back is Fiji These areas can also cause R rib pains.
L mid lower back pains are Tonga Islands.
Lower Back Pains:
ID,UT, NM, AZ, TN,MO,TX,OK and CO, KS, WY, AR, VA, NC, SC, NY, OH and IL are but a few of the locations that that will cause the lower back pains of the Wasatch and New Madrid quake zone. There can be a possible connection to the Yucca and Simi Valley quakes. A 3.0 quake in Colorado today some experienced a mild spacey or balance issues and some may have actually felt tiny tremors before the quake. This was not far from Wyoming.
STOMACH:
Sharp Stomach Pains:
Imperial Valley, India, Nicobar and Andaman Islands, Nepal, Myanmar, Tibet, Kashmir and Bangladesh …..
The Imperial Valley, Borrego Springs, El Centro, like the symptoms for India minus the L earache. Solar activity will also cause sharp stomach pains. Quakes in Imperial Valley connect to Borrego Springs, El Centro, Brawley, Westmoreland, Ocotillo Wells plus Mexicali, Calexico and Baja CA/MX and Gulf of CA.The quakes can be part of The solar activity as stated as it will cause sharp pains from the sternum to the navel.
Achy Stomach Pains:
The achy pains This is the Wasatch /New Madrid including ID,UT, NM, AZ, TN,MO,TX,OK and CO, KS, WY, AR, VA, NC, SC, NY, OH and IL Alaska, Philippines and Iceland and some of the Cascades and Sierras will also cause stomach pains specifically Mammoth Lakes, and Bishop, and The Geysers or Northern and Central CA and Coalinga.
RIBS:
The L rib pains are part of the area of Oceania This would be AU, NZ, PNG and Kermadec Islands.
North and South Islands NZ and the areas of New Ireland and New Britain and Eastern New Guinea PNG as well as The Kermadec Islands.
The R rib pains.
The Domino Islands this includes Tonga Fiji, Marianas, Loyalty, Vanuatu and Solomon Islands. This connects the areas of the R and L mid lower back pains to a Domino Islands.
LEGS:
L side leg pains are part of Knee and ankle, calf pains. This is Guatemala and Ecuador there has been multiple quakes in both locations.
The R side Leg is Peru, Brazil, Columbia, Panama and Costa Rica.. lots of quake activity in Panama and Costa Rica or their border.
Keep positive thoughts, Think Peace, thoughts have power and we have the power to change the world “
BALANCE:
The balance issue continues and today I read some reports about our planet and it seems we are very active right now. I also heard via from official sources the Pacific NW is in the middle of what they all a ” Slow Earthquake ” these happen on a regular basis and are not a sign of a impending quake. These quakes take place deep below Puget Sound Washington. The plates rub against each other over a longer period of time instead of moving all at once. Sometimes its weeks or even months and thousands of tiny tremors are recorded. They said can’t felt but speaking for me, I am sure it added to the constant balance and sounds I have been hearing and reporting the last couple of months. Officially the last slow quake began in August 2025 not sure how long it will last.
VISION:
The vision has been affected on and off the last few weeks..not being sure why with the information about the slow quake I am not saying its involved but it would definitely make a difference. For me, speaking for myself, any vibration even from mico tremors hundreds of miles away. I will have to go back and see when I began to have the vision issues more than the blurred vision of just Oregon events.
Cats:
The cats have been better today but as I said Merlin had a few spells of his crying, hiding and running. Boots wanted to fight with everyone today… Baby stood her ground and gave as good as she got maybe better..
Merlin was sleeping till about 8 PM and woke up went into an immediate attack and did not calm down for about 30 minutes… then he slept till I took them to bed.
Ants:
The ants are not invading but there are a few more.. I put in some fresh food for them this morning and they are back to eat…. about 1-2 dozen ants seen.
No Spiders .
No Earthworms
Out of area reports.

AZ,CA,OR Leg and Back Pains.
CA, OR, WA, AZ Frogs
CA WA, OR, AZ Balance and space
Solar activity:
Nothing new reported since the X1.1 event of the 16th but if my itching is any indication,
more is coming sooner than later. Compression around ribs as well
Sounds and Frogs:
The N sounds are on going… since they have been going on for so long it makes me wonder if I am hearing that slow quake frequency… I will be doing some checking with the USGS and try to get some answers.
Still hearing that horn honking sound which is part of the El Salvador area.
Japan like WA is the N sound but with Japan there is a definite dual tone vibration I am no getting with WA or OR events but Alaska always comes in as does Aleutian Islands.

Volcanoes
Indonesia: Lewotobi and Semeru
Russia: Klyuchevskoy
United States: Kilauea

The recent activity in Greece/Italy can be connected to the Campi Flegrei Volcano near Naples Italy
There has been quite a bit of activity on and off for the last few months… these are on the Aegean Sea which is also a precursor area for quakes in Turkey.
