January 15, 2023, 10:51 NPT (+5:45), near Pokhara, Nepal at 28N11'38" 83E58'56"

At least 68 people were killed of the 72 on board the Yeti Airlines flight. This was the third deadliest air crash in Nepal's history (the others being in July and September 1992, with 113 and 167 dead, respectively).

The plane crashed in the Seti River Gorge near Pokhara, Nepal. It had last contact with Pokhara airport at about 10:50 AM LT. (It had departed Katmandu at 10:33 AM and reportedly crashed 18 minutes later, which would be 10:51 AM.)

Sunat 29°42' Sagittarius had not entered Capricorn yet, so this is likely the last major event we'll study under the outgoing 2022 Capsolar.

The solar ingresses are unusually poor for this, but the one operative lunar ingress nailed it - a new Liblunar. The Cansolar then timed the date very well.

January 30, 2023, 1:30 PM PKT, Peshawar, Pakistan at 34N00'47", 71E33'34"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_Pesh ... ue_bombing

Suicide bomber at a mosque. At least 100 are dead (including 27 police officers), at least 220 others wounded. (The mosque is situated inside of a secured police compound.) This is only the latest in a recent series of attacks but is the worst of them. The bomb was exploded during the (sundial) noon prayers.

The quotidians for finalizing the date range from weak to strange to wrong. There's an extreme amount of Mercury going on!
