As we detailed earlier,
https://www.zetatalk.com/info/tinfx028.htmAustralia will lift as the Indo-Australia Plate plunges under the Himalayas, thus Australia will rise on the eastern edge while it sinks on the western side. Due to the steep rise expected across Australia, the weight of the land mass of Australia will force this continent to bend in the middle. Western Australia at Perth, for instance, will be under water but Melbourne will gain 125 feet in elevation during the Pole Shift. Australia will bend along a line under the Central Lowlands, which are a thin place in the crust and approximately 2/3 of the way across the continent.
This recent quake at Melbourne is not this bending of the Indo-Australia Plate, but a precursor. The many quakes during the rise of the eastern edge of the Indo-Australia Plate are clustered along New Zealand and Indonesia. The Pacific plunges under the plate at New Zealand and Indonesia plunges under the plate at Sumatra and New Guinea. But the connection to the Antarctic Plate has not shown quake swarms because the Antarctic Plate is pushing up into the space between the tip of S America and S Africa, where the New Land

Thus the Continent of Australia is in fact put under a torque, with the eastern side lifting and the southeastern point at Tasmania being able to drop due to the void along the border with Antarctica. This torque will not snap the land, but will challenge the rock such that large jolts are occurring.
After the Pole Shift, eastern Australia will find itself above the waves, as will New Zealand, but both these land masses must account for the anticipated 675 foot rise in sea level that will occur within 2 year after the Pole Shift.

https://www.zetatalk.com/info/tinfx028.htmWe have described the plunging of the western 2/3 of Australia as quite dramatic and steep. Meanwhile the eastern part levels off due to a bending of the plate through the center of Australia. This can almost be seen if one looks at a relief map of Australia, as the lowlands of Australia, where the bending occurs, are between the eastern and western mountain ranges. That portion of the plate holding western Australia to rise from that drop point at a steeper angle, but when the climb reaches the center of Australia, it levels off. Australia bends through the lowlands, bending such that the eastern part of the Indo-Australian Plate can rest on magma and not just jut into the air. The rise from the center of the Indo-Australia Plate is sharp going toward Queensland. The heavy lifting that the section of this plate east of Queensland must endure is alleviated in essence by the bend at the Coral Sea. New South Wales and Victoria, however, will bend at the Central Lowlands and then maintain a steady land shelf on toward the South Island of New Zealand. Assume the area around Melbourne to have an approximate 125 foot boost.
