If you are a conspiracy theorist, it doesn’t get much bigger for you than for a total solar eclipse to occur.
The fact that an eclipse only happens once every 10 to 12 years or so makes it the perfect event to connect to some outlandish predictions.
For instance, the next total solar eclipse to be visible by any part of North America will be in 2033, but only over Alaska. While the next total solar eclipse to be visible to the entire United States won’t happen again until 2045
One conspiracy theory making the rounds on the internet claims that a “massive human sacrifice” event will take place on April 8th during what they are calling the “Great American Eclipse.”
This theory, which began in a post over on Reddit, is quite a doozy.
“I’m pretty concerned about this Great American Eclipse on April 8th,” the person wrote. “The line from the solar eclipse of 2017 and the line from the one upcoming on April 8th creates an X, very close to the New Madrid Fault Line. If something were to trigger that fault line, something man-made they could make look completely natural, it could mean a serious loss of life disaster for the US. An earthquake on the New Madrid Fault Line could be up to 20 times larger than an earthquake with a SoCal epicenter.
“Taking the line for the Annular Eclipse or ‘Ring Of Fire’ from October of this year and the upcoming solar eclipse, creates another X over Texas, not far from Tesla’s gigafactory.”
X marks the spot, apparently.
“Speaking of X, Elon Musk changes Twitter’s name to X. His baby’s mother, Grimes, posted a strange image on Instagram before COVID that literally told us covid was going to happen, all the way down to the 3 injections,” they continued. “In that same image, a few rows beneath the COVID ‘prediction’ is a solar eclipse. Under it, a flower between two dragons. 2024 is the year of the dragon. The lotus flower begins blooming in China on April 8th. The eclipse is happening on April 8th.
“That is way too many coincidences for me to feel comfortable, along with the Deagel projection of a 225 million person decrease in the US by 2025. It would appear some massive sacrifice could possibly be in the works, I’m quite certain they all have some bunker or safe spot away from the damage. There’s being paranoid, and there’s knowing how blatant & aggressive they are with the symbolism. I urge everyone to find a place to be out of harms way on the 8th of April, we can not trust these psychopaths.”
Got all that?
Oh, by the way, the city of Carbondale, Illinois also sits at the center of another X as it will be the second time in seven years a total solar eclipse will have passed over that town.
Why is this important? Because, on average, a total solar eclipse would normally only cross the same location about once every 400 years.
According to Atlas Obscura, “conspiracy theorists believe that a seismic event will be triggered when the eclipse arrives in this part of the state, known as Little Egypt, killing hundreds of thousands of people.”
Honestly, at this point, it might just be safer to not leave the house on April 8th.
