There's a graph somewhere that shows the moon phase (days) on the x axis va earthquakes by magnitude (y axis). It's not linear and does show a correlation for new and full moon
Alternatively you can find the dates for recent big quakes and check the lunar phase yourself. There's a very good chance of it being a day or two either side of new/full.
To the extent that of travelling to Japan, NZ or west coast USA I'd avoid these dates if possible. As for the solar eclipse next year ... yep it's a possible date for the Cascadia or San Andreas faults to slip. And both are overdue.
