Tunguska 2.0 + Armageddon 2013?

For days, you've been hearing about the asteroid half the size of a football field, known as 2012 DA14, flies by about 17,000 miles above Earth, on February 15, 2013.

Tunguska 2.0

Early on February 15th, in an intriguing "coincidence," a meteor (or will it be found to be a meteorite?) weighing 10 tons and the size of a kitchen table, exploded over communities in the Russian Urals.  

Because of the fact that one million people in Russia have dashcams (dashboard cameras), good videos were taken of this breaking news.

There are reports that due to the concussion burst from this exploding meteor breaking out windows and collapsing buildings, over 1000 people have been injured in Russia.

Why are some people calling this Tunguska 2.0? It is a reference to the mysterious larger incident that also occurred in Russia, back in 1908.

The Tunguska event was an enormously powerful explosion that occurred near (and later struck) the Podkamennaya Tunguska River in what is now Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russia, at about 7:14 a.m. KRAT (00:14UT) on June 30 [O.S. June 17], 1908. The explosion, having the epicenter (60.886°N, 101.894°E), is believed to have been caused by the air burst of a large meteoroid or comet fragment at an altitude of 5–10 kilometres (3–6 mi) above the Earth's surface.

In late breaking news shared by The Gralien Report, eyewitnesses in "Cuba now claim a similar explosion has occurred over the province of Cienfuegos, described as a 'very bright light, and of a size 'comparable to that of a bus.'"

Cinematic timing?

Bruce Willis to the rescue? Willis to Russia?
 

Bruce Willis's latest, A Good Day To Die Hard, has opened, but on Friday, February 15, 2013, most people may be thinking about his role in Armageddon (1998). (What, another Ben Affleck-Argo timing sync too? Argo just went on sale on Blu-Ray and digital.)

As to other movie tie-ins, look at the following early report in which a bottom caption of Skyfall is used, and the reporter mentions War of the Worlds and Armageddon. She later makes mistakes, such as saying these are asteroids, instead of meteorites. But it is apparent that many people are subconsciously and naturally linking the two events. (Her report, btw, is one of the first, in which only 100 injured people were known. She does mention five fragments, a factoid not heard often in USA-UK reports.)

How does this coincidence/synchronicity strike you?

An insightful friend, Philip Levine, a writer, former therapist and astrologer, publicly shared this on Facebook today:

Today we have something even rarer than being impacted by the big (mostly empty) Universe we live in. We are being impacted twice! A meteor explodes above the Earth and injures people and destroys property. And an asteroid is passing 17,000 miles away from us.
In other times and places, these would be a sign, a very big sign, saying something (what depends on which prophet or psychic you listen to). If you think the Universe is intelligent and an embodiment of some kind of Being, then you would want to know what It is saying.
If, like most, you believe the Universe is just a random collection of debris with no meaning other than chaos, then Statistics is your God. And the statistical chance of ONE of these things happening is immensely small, but TWO on the SAME DAY, within hours, in this infinitely vast Universe, is something to give one pause.
If you aren't sticking your head in the sand, how does this coincidence/synchronicity strike you?

First of all, let us hope that others are not or will not be struck, physically, by any of events.

I must say, it all does seem to be incredibly intriguing timing, that is very Fortean, synchromystic, and cosmic. It is as if, sometimes, a cosmic window has opened. Is this one of those times?

I also think these current events are synchrocinematic. These astrothreads are happening at the same time two Bruce Willis movies come to mind, one about the character in Russia and the other about his role being to fly to destroy an asteroid heading to Earth.  We all get to think about what the words coincidence and synchronicity deeply imply.

One of Jung's favorite quotes on synchronicity was from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll, in which the White Queen says to Alice: "It's a poor sort of memory that only works backwards".
