Here, it looks like Hekla is getting even more restless.

This is not Hekla but it is Torfajokull. It is actually just at the edge of the caldera of Torfajokull and this is one volcano it erupted 6 times at same time as Veidivotn. But the entire region between both volcanoes is a short distance and sight of many small independent eruptions, not belonging clearly to either.
However sometimes earthquakes at this region appear a few days before a proper eruption of Hekla. I think this happened before one of the last eruptions but cannot record which one, and which source I have read this in.
But yes, there are subtle signs pointing to increased restless over the entire region in south Iceland, between Katla, Torfajokull and Hekla, 3 volcanoes which are actually quite near to each one. My bet remains: an eruption of Hekla within the next months, maybe even this month! Hekla erupts most often in late winter and spring time, but it could be just a statistical coincidence.
