In the context of the Reykjanes Peninsula Iceland and the Fagradalsfjall volcano
the region is very sensitive to outer planetary placements
in the zodiac sector we assign to Capricorn
This includes Jupiter Saturn and Pluto in recent years
as well as any eclipses in that sign
Uranus while in Taurus may be providing critical on/off energy
regarding lava flow
update 18 March 2024
A change of pace in the outflow of lava is reflective of the nature of the transit of Uranus - known to express energy in variable unpredictable ways.
This factor contains potential for sudden upsurges and in the approach to April 8 solar eclipse more vigorous events are expected.
update 17 March 2024
A further eruption has occurred on the Rekyjanes peninsula
at 20.23 UT on 16 March
This is the fourth and largest eruption since events active in October 2023
Uranus in Taurus transit carries an earth changes signature for resonant locations. This location in Iceland was predicted in this post to be relevant to increased lava flow once Uranus turned direct [January 27 2024 ] Processes relevant to eruption have been in ongoing further development since late January - resulting in this far more significant event which may be within the potential activation field of the coming solar eclipse 8 April 2024.
17 March Uranus at 20 Taurus is very much in range of eclipse Uranus 21 Taurus on 8 April.
Eclipse Jupiter is 19 Taurus so eclipse Jupiter-Uranus is 20 Taurus The Jupiter-Uranus signature is very energised and altered terrestrial energy
These indicators point to the force behind the 17 March event and may deliver further sustained activity in approach of the April 8 eclipse.
update 15 Feb 2024
Processes remain active
without further recent eruptive activity -
consistent with a sporadic phase [Uranus]
For ongoing updates see the Icelandic Meteorological Office website
update 8 February 2024
Eruptive activity began local time during the 1pm-2pm time frame on 8 January
Iceland issues State of Emergency after lava flow threatens hot water supply pipes
Streams of lava sprayed from a 3km long fissure but the intensity calmed within 4 hours of onset.
This official eruptive event is consistent with the analysis in this post pointing to the expected role of planetary signifier Uranus changing to Direct intensity in the last week of January.
Uranus has both releasing and erratic energy and while this planet continues through the Taurus sector within the timeframe 2018-2026 any location resonating with the transited degree position in Taurus is capable of manifesting sudden significant "earth changes"

update 5 February 2024
consistent with expectations of increased magma due to the direct movement of Uranus since late January - as posted in the main section
Iceland Met Office reports
update 27 Jan 2024
Met Office Iceland notes on 25 Jan that uplift to a greater degree than
prior to Jan 14 eruption is being observed in recent days
This adds some confirmation to the initial forecast in this post that late January with the Direct stationing of Uranus holds significance for release of magma
update 15 Jan 2024
Iceland Met Ofice has issued an eruption confirmation re events
from 7.57 UT on 14 January preceded by intensity of minor earthquakes to a level of M3.5

It remains likely that there is more significant eruptive expression to unfold -not only as consistent with past profiles but also consistent with the second factor emphasised in this report: that Uranus is heading towards a direct station at late January - [Jupiter late December was also a direct station]
The Uranus factor - changing an energy phase - also seems to be a prior pattern in this volcanic field
update 30 December 2023
This now may point to the role of Jupiter stationing at a degree considered sensitive for this volcanic field
Many residents evacuated
Late on 18 December - North of Grindavik at 22.17 hrs
by midnight 19 Dec seismicity had decreased
When this eruption began 18 Dec 2023 Jupiter was at approx 5.50 Taurus and slowing while near terminal retrograde is only days from the stationing direct position close to Xmas and extending into January 2024 Jupiter is considered relevant to the eruptive sequence
This is consistent with the forecast in this original post pointing to both late December 2023 and late January 2024:

Update issued Nov 20 points to a quietening period.
Multiple factors are always in the mix not simply specific sign or angle emphases. The solar system follows its own timing and schedules to a degree of complexity we struggle to comprehend…but every event leaves clues regarding the resonance that the Reykjanes region and Fagradalsfjall volcano respond to - even if we cannot access the factors prevailing in the Pleistocene era when this volcano came into being.
We know that there has been in everyone and in every context a very significant emphasis on planets expressing through Capricorn archetypes and traits in the period starting 2016 -due to Saturn in Sagittarius reaching Capricorn midpoints with Pluto in Capricorn - and extending to full conjunction of this pair January 2020 - followed by a year of further midpoints to early February 2021.

It comes as no surprise then that the highly volcanic nation of Iceland occupies the rift zone of the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates -the spreading of those plates allows what lies beneath to emerge.
When Capricorn expresses in the natural environment it is experienced as mountain rocks stone crystals minerals the tectonic plates and crust of planet Earth.
Saturn in Capricorn is a constructing forming building signifier
Pluto in Capricorn is transformation of rock crust tectonic plate
Together = destruction of old infrastructure and building of transformed infrastructure
It is proposed that the period 2016-2021 under those influences that Earth is general underwent a significant structural change -with particular locations -as is normal - having a stronger specific resonance with the prevailing factors.
Evidence suggests that Iceland - in particular Fagradalsfjall volcano on the Reykjanes peninsula has a resonant match.
The following observations point to relevant planetary factors in the recent time frame including relevant solar-lunar eclipse events which are of necessity checked for relevance.
The key awakening indicator arose in March 2021 but background clues were evident
Timeline of key modern era periods
Mid December 2019 was a significant starting point in the current eruptive cycle
15 December -hundreds of earthquakes in 24hrs
[In New Zealand 9 December resonance also occurred: an offshore volcanic island erupted with fatal consequences]
Jupiter Saturn and Pluto were all in Capricorn -along with Ceres and the south lunar node
Jupiter 3 Capricorn responded to the solar eclipse degree
[ 26/12 4 Capricorn]
Saturn was approaching conjunction with Pluto
Saturn closely matched the approaching lunar eclipse degree 20 Capricorn-Cancer 10 January 2020
Pluto very close to lunar eclipse too
= Saturn-Pluto midpoint in December 2019 responded very strongly to to coming lunar eclipse
This phenomenon of planetary activation in advance of a trigger eclipse is a feature of non-linear time - essentially quantum level reality seen in action.
Summary:
The accumulation of Capricorn energy - JUP SAT PLU and any midpoints involved and connection of JUP SAT PLU to approaching eclipses
March 2021
Saturn and Pluto are long game players
Background processes for the Fagradalsfjall events discussed have Pleistocene era origins [beyond the reach of planetary analysis] and Pluto was fully in Capricorn from 2009 the addition of Jupiter and Saturn in Capricorn was likely essential to the mega-processes involved.
In the current cycle we can see Saturn was engaging by semisquare with Pluto mid 2015 and was forming Capricorn midpoints with Pluto as early as 2016. The synergy tightened towards exact conjunction in the years from 2016-2020 -January 2020 being their conjunction at around 22.7 Capricorn but midpoints were resumed into early 2021 while Saturn moved ahead of Pluto into Aquarius [a role now focussed not on rock but on snow ]
By Feb 2021 Saturn and Pluto completed their synergy in Capricorn - with Pluto remaining in Capricorn during 2021-2022 then beginning transition into Aquarius in 2023 and 2024 -completing by November 19 2024
19 March 2021 Fagradalsfjall volcano Reykjanes peninsula
The volcano erupted in a lengthy 6 month period of emission.
The lava flow stopped 18 September
This event fell under the recent new long cycle of expansion-contraction and structural balancing growth and building indicated by the pairing of Jupiter and Saturn [ a 2 decade period ] which began on 21 December 2020 at 0º35 Aquarius which in element terms can express as big snowfalls/a lot of snow - and a quick search as I type shows this pattern is evident in Iceland.
Jupiter and Saturn due to their complementary regulating processes are essential to the growth and development of all creative-destructive processes -whether that is biological life weather and storm systems land formation or plate tectonics.
- At the start of the March 2021 eruption Jupiter in Aquarius was tightly semisextile Neptune in Pisces = an abundant water-snow combination = snow plus melt
- Jupiter-Saturn midpoint was semisquare the 0º planetary axis point Aries.
This mixture of fixed sign Aquarius with fire sign Aries points to a resonance
with solar energy [Leo] which is fixed fire.
Volcanism is arguably tripped into release by solar dynamics
within its own cycles of enhanced activity:
2019 15 December
-hundreds of earthquakes in 24hrs in the Reykjanes peninsula
just as Solar cycle 25 began -proving to beat official predictions of weakness
in solar dynamics
Pluto in Capricorn was closely semisquare the lunar nodes
No outer planet retrogrades since 13 Jan [ before Uranus direct station]
Saturn in Aquarius and Uranus in Taurus [mutual reception] tightly square in the approach to exact square June 2021 says a lot about physical/earth changes
The March 2021 eruptive period looks to have been responsive to the eclipses that followed -in particular the June solar eclipse at 19’47 Gemini being in connection with Neptune in February March in the development phase of the eruptive process
Summary
Again multiple planetary factors converging -
with Uranus [earth changes] and Neptune [water] playing their roles both often covert and subterranean for the most part.
The new cycle of Jupiter-Saturn is significant
2022 eruption 3 August
30 July -3 August much seismicity then lava eruption 3 August with flow continuing to 21 August
Background events before 2022 eruption
18 April 2022 Pluto in Capricorn stationing to retrograde while square to Aries Sun
This is a "hot rock" or magma combination undergoing creation
30 April solar eclipse10 Taurus resonant by semisquare with 25 Pisces transit of Neptune at eclipse
This reflects the role of water impacting earth element/physical matter or landscape. It is also likely to play a role in flow -such as when lava forms streams and resembles a river
16 May 2022 total lunar eclipse Jupiter 0ºAries semisquare Uranus 15 Taurus -giving much energy to processes underway
Sun 24 Taurus square Saturn 24 Aquarius
[Jupiter angled to Uranus [May] first then to Saturn [August] by semiquare when eruptions happened]
20 July Events arose after Pluto 27 Capricorn was opposed by the Sun 27 Cancer
28 July Jupiter 8’43 Aries was stationed
Jupiter semisquare Saturn 23 Aquarius
North Node 19 Taurus with Uranus 18 Taurus on North node
Eruption events 2022
3 August Mars conjunct Uranus both on north node 18 Taurus
21 August Eruption ceased when Uranus stationed and then went rx 24 August
Summary of factors involved
All 5 outer planets from Jupiter to Pluto
Eclipses
Conjunction Square Opposition and Semisquare angles
Stationing
Key factors can be tracked back months prior and months after due to quantum compression of time which removes linear sequencing of events
2023 ACTIVITY
July 2023
4 July seismic intensity strong
10 July lava emission
Lava flow through July
8 Aug event ceases
Prior solar eclipse April 2023 activated Sun 0'20 Taurus square Pluto 0'20 Aquarius
This was a major signal of transformed earth/matter and would have set process in place with later consequences.
Aquarius is the electrical component in electromagnetism so with Pluto in this sign until January 2044 this will have major implications for our planet's magnetic field
In this brief event onset: Nodes 1 Taurus Pluto 29 Capricorn Uranus 21’50-22.5 Taurus
At termination: URANUS slowing to station RX 29 Aug 2023 -
this is a repeat or signature indicator -see August 2022

November 2023
10th November in/around Grindavik beginning with high intensity seismicity leading to much ground deformation [Uranus in Taurus]
Background to November 2023 activity
October 2023 Saturn-Neptune midpoint in Pisces reaches semisquare with Pluto in Capricorn -maintained through November and December 2023
October 2023 solar Eclipse at 21 Libra activates Uranus 22 Taurus and 6 mutable [ in range of November 27 full moon 4’51 Gemini ]
October 2023 lunar eclipse 5’09 Taurus [to be future activated by Jupiter stationing direct at 5 Taurus in the final days of December 2023 into January 2024 - this likely to be an important period of development but perhaps not the main eruptive period.
21 October 2023 Sun reaches square to Pluto soon after station direct period
17 December Sun comes to square Neptune while Neptune stations in early direct period
Previous events in this location show that Uranus in Taurus in retrograde has been shown to curtail eruptive and lava flow.
Uranus being retrograde since the end of August 2023 is likely to be lacking the externalised force to produce the full potential in the developmental mix before the end of 2023

2024
20th-21st January Sun conjuncts Pluto
0º Aquarius Sun and Pluto both activate the origin degree 0º Aquarius for the current Jupiter-Saturn cycle and likely responsive to the April 2023 Pluto 0 Aquarius square to the 0 Taurus Sun in the solar eclipse period
Uranus is semisextile the north Node 19 Aries and then stations from mid January being extra intense late January
The Saturn-Neptune midpoint is in range of semisquare Pluto in January
27 January Sun is square Jupiter at the same point as Uranus is exact stationed direct.
Uranus may be connected to the generation of flow
and while retrograde may not have had the generative force
to enable an eruption
Summary
The land deforming events of November 2023 involving Fagradalsfjall volcano in Iceland's Reykjanes peninsula look to be part of a complex but slow and eventually very impactful event which is a high potential expression of the factors clustering during the final 10 days of January 2024
