Perhaps this is perfectly natural? I have no experience in either seismology or volcanology and won't attempt to explain this.
But it does make one scratch one's head in bewilderment, just a little.
The following screenshot is from the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) website [zoomed in on the Island of La Palma], taken just moments ago. It shows earthquake activity over the last forty-eight hours on the island of La Palma, whose Cumbre Vieja volcano erupted on September 19th, 2021.

This activity has the clustered pattern we are more used to.
Maybe the La Palma island earthquakes are more modern, a new order of earthquakes?

Perfect grid like pattern.
For contrast, here is a cluster of several earthquakes that have occurred on the island of Crete, also in the last forty-eight hours, screenshot taken from the same website just moments ago:
