Chile has been struck by an earthquake measuring 5.8 in magnitude.

So far there are no reports of any damage.

The US geological survey said the quake's epicentre was about 84 miles (135 km) southwest of Santiago.

Two months ago Chile was struck by a magnitude 8.8 quake.

The ensuing tsunamis killed about 500 people and caused an estimated $30bn in damage to infrastructure, homes, industry and lost productivity.

    This is no good! The world is shifting and manmade ones are not helping either! We have to hope for the best and pray and keep in "Love" state of mind ... Michael taught us that at least! My hopes and prayers for all those involved in this latest earthquake in Chile. Peace and Love!

    This is getting really scary now. Seems like the earth is really unsettled. We, in Australia, have been experiencing some minor tremors too. This is very disturbing. I hope everyone in Chile is ok. My prayers and thoughts are with you all. As always, with L.O.V.E xoxoxoxoxoxo
