Financial Astrology - Sept 3, 2019


Our posts are now reported on the highly regarded FXStreet.com.

Summary

We are ending the summer period. We’ll get back to normal posts in September.

The following chart shows the geocentric Bradley indicator. It’s the red line on the daily chart of the SP500. You can search the blog to find my description of the Bradley and why we should ignore the apparent trend. It’s not accurate.

What is quite accurate is the changes in trend. I’ve been waiting for August 23 and now watch the price fall. I have circled that date in blue. Note the upcoming dates (blue circles). These are all potential turns dates but ignore the direction of the red line. Give each occurrence of +- 3 tds.
The August 30 date would appear to be a reversal up and potentially a run at the All Time High.



Also of interest is the vertical blue lines. This is a 54 day cycle. In Vedic (Indian) Astrology 108 is a sacred number. 54 is 108 / 2 then 54 / 2 = 27. 27 days is the length of time it takes the Moon to circle the Earth. It takes 2.5 days more for the Moon to catch up to the Earth which has moved 2.5 days and therefore we get to 29.5 days for the orbit of the Moon. In addition the Sun rotates once every 27 days at the equator of the Sun. The next vertical blue line which is the
27 cd cycle is on Sept 3.

On August 18 Mars entered Virgo. This often equates to powerful market moves. We have covered Mars changing signs in some detail. Following is a daily chart of the SP500 and the red squares show when Mars entered a new sign.



Specifically, when Mars enters Virgo the markets have a history of sharp moves both up and down. where there is a number of red x’s.

Although we may be looking for a rise in the SP500 next week we are still due to see the trough of the Primary cycle in late Sept or early October.

We may get another war but I'm looking at September 9, 2020 and beyond for a major war effort. That day Mars turns retrograde while squaring the conjunction of Saturn / Pluto.

SP500
We are entering the 13th week of a Primary cycle which started on June 3, 2019. In the current situation I am looking for a crest of the 9 week cycle which we probably had on July 26. This would be the ½ Primary cycle crest and down.

If this is a trough it may be a trough of the second 6 week cycle in the 18 week cycle. The third 6 week cycle in the Primary (18) week is often the most confusing.

Looking at the above summary, I would say the markets may move higher from here but we should keep in mind the Primary cycle is due for a trough late Sept to early October. It is possible we continue down into mid Sept / early October. Mid month we have Saturn turning direct just 2 days before the last Jupiter / Neptune square. Saturn Direct is a signature for the 50 week cycle.

The potent Sun/ Mars conjunction will be in orb from now until the end of September. This conjunction has a record of stock market reversals.

Following is an up to date chart of the SP500.

Much of the market’s movement will be due to the extent of the trade wars between China and the US.

Watch the 2844 area for the SP500. On the following chart you can see 2844 is the 61.8% Fibonacci level.

Notice at the bottom of the chart. The light blue line is the 39 or 40 week cycle. It is due to hit the trough around October 2nd. I’m looking for the Primary cycle trough mid Sept to early Oct.



Price is above the 15 day sma and below the 45 day sma.

Jupiter square Neptune which we have mentioned numerous times may be the real problem as these planets in aspect can be quite inflationary. This may be pointing to serious financial problems late 2019 or early on 2020.

The Jupiter / Neptune square is still in scope and the effects are still being felt.  The next square is Sept 21. The Saturn / Pluto conjunction is also still in orb. Both will come back to exact conjunction.

Gold

Gold is entering the 14th week of the 18 week Primary cycle. This could be the ½ cycle of the Primary cycle. It could also be the completion of the 2nd 6 week cycle in the 18 week Primary cycle.

The Jupiter going Direct signature on Aug 11 is often associated with crests in gold prices..

The Uranus Retrograde signature is also more frequently associated with crests in gold or big range days.

When commodities are moving with such strength it is difficult to see a turn. Price has just come down to the 15 day sma. It may bounce here, on Sept 3 +-.

Gold may have an up day on Sept 3.



Aug 23 may have been that big range day.

Aug 26 has Venus in waxing trine to Uranus.. This is a very volatile aspect.

Aug 28 has Mars trine Uranus often seen at crests in Gold. This could be very volatile for Gold over a number of days. Watch out for a pull back in Gold.

The red squares on the following daily Gold chart show the exact square of Jupiter and Neptune. There are 3 of them. Based on the previous 2 we may see a move up then down.



From last week:
“We may see moves in Silver Aug 26-28 and possibly Aug 28 for Gold.”

Crude's 

We had the Primary Cycle trough for crude oil on June 5th and are entering the 12th week of a new Primary cycle. Notice the green symmetrical triangle providing support and resistance. Crude price quickly broke the bottom of the symmetrical triangle. Crude will either break above or below the symmetrical triangle.

I’m looking for crude to find support at the May and June resistance areas. This assumes crude price moves below the boundary of the symmetrical triangle (green).

Crude may be quite volatile over the summer months and into the late summer (i.e. Sept 21, 2019). Obviously, the price of crude will go up if relations with Iran worsen. I’m expecting a rise in crude oil price by the fall timeframe.

Will China buy crude from Iran?

Closer in time crude price may rise short term at Aug 12 where Jupiter turns Direct all +- 5 tds.

The red squares are the Jupiter / Neptune square. The next instance is the square forming on Sept 21.

Financial Astrology - August 26, 2019



Our posts are now reported on the highly regarded FXStreet.com.

Summary

We are ending the summer period. Fast wasn’t it. We’ll get back to normal posts in September.

We’ll soon be thinking of 2020. One of the important aspects in 2020 will be the Mutation conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn. In olden days these were the business planets. What is coming up in 2020 is the first conjunction in Aquarius. The mutation conjunction is 240 years apart with some adjustments, I have written about this before and will again. This should come with many new technologies and technological ideas. So many in fact that the way the world works may change. Think things like 5G and bitcoins / crypto-currencies. This could be a depressive environment as people try and adjust to the many changes. One of possible interest is technology as applied to farming.

The following chart shows the geocentric Bradley indicator. It’s the red line on the daily chart of the SP500. You can search the blog to find my description of the Bradley and why we should ignore the apparent trend. It’s not accurate.

What is quite accurate is the changes in trend. I’ve been waiting for August 23 and now watch the price fall. I have circled that date in blue. Note the upcoming dates (blue circles). These are all potential turns dates but ignore the direction of the red line. Give each occurrence of +- 3 tds.
I’ll make a call each time we get close to one of the dates.



Also of interest is the vertical blue lines. This is a 54 day cycle. In Vedic (Indian) Astrology 108 is a sacred number. 54 is 108 / 2 then 54 / 2 = 27. 27 days is the length of time it takes the Moon to circle the Earth. It takes 2.5 days more for the Moon to catch up to the Earth which has moved 2.5 days and therefore we get to 29.5 days for the orbit of the Moon. In addition the Sun rotates once every 27 days at the equator of the Sun.


On August 18 Mars entered Virgo. This often equates to powerful market moves. We have covered Mars changing signs in some detail. Following is a daily chart of the SP500 and the red squares show when Mars entered a new sign.



Specifically, when Mars enters Virgo the markets have a history of sharp moves both up and down. where there is a number of red x’s.

Looking at the above I would say the markets may move lower, possibly to the end of the month or early September. Aug 12 and Aug 19 may both be powerful moves in the markets.

With so many powerful aspects it is difficult to pick one date. The forces of the aspects overlap. It should however, be very volatile where one can make money or lose money fast.

We may get another war but I'm looking at September 9, 2020 and beyond for a major war effort. That day Mars turns retrograde while squaring the conjunction of Saturn / Pluto.


SP500
We are entering the 12th week of a new Primary cycle which started on June 3, 2019. In the current situation I am looking for a crest of the 9 week cycle which may have already had on July 26. This would be the ½ Primary cycle crest and down.

If this is a trough it may be a trough of the second 6 week cycle in the 18 week cycle. The third 6 week cycle in the Primary (18) week is often the most confusing.

Looking at the above summary, I would say the markets may move lower possibly to the end of the month or early September. It is possible we continue down into late Sept / early October.

The potent Sun/ Mars conjunction will be in orb from now until the end of September. This conjunction has a record of stock market reversals.

Following is an up to date chart of the SP500. I am looking at a low in late August or early September. This may change as aspects unfold in August.

Much of the market’s movement will be due to the extent of the trade wars between China and the US.

Watch the 2844 area for the SP500. On the following chart you can see 2844 is the 61.8% Fibonacci level



Jupiter square Neptune which we have mentioned numerous times may be the real problem as these planets in aspect can be quite inflationary. This may be pointing to serious financial problems late 2019 or early on 2020.

The Jupiter / Neptune square is still in scope and the effects are still being felt.  The next square is Sept 21. The Saturn / Pluto conjunction is also still in orb. Both will come back to exact conjunction.

Gold

Gold is entering the 12th week of the 18 week Primary cycle. This could be the ½ cycle of the Primary cycle. It could also be the completion of the 2nd 6 week cycle in the 18 week Primary cycle.

The Jupiter going Direct signature on Aug 11 is often associated with crests in gold prices..

The Uranus Retrograde signature is also more frequently associated with crests in gold or big range days.

From last week:
“We may be headed down but also watch for a big range day.”



Aug 23 may have been that big range day.

Aug 26 has Venus in waxing trine to Uranus.. This is a very volatile aspect.

Aug 28 has Mars trine Uranus often seen at crests in Gold. This could be very volatile for Gold over a number of days. Watch out for a pull back in Gold.

The red squares on the following daily Gold chart show the exact square of Jupiter and Netune. There are 3 of them. Based on the previous 2 we may see a move up then down.


This coming week Silver may have big range days Aug 26 to Aug 28. Gold may hit it's crest on Aug 28. All dates +- 3 tds/

Crude's 

We had the Primary Cycle trough for crude oil on June 5th and are entering the 11th week of a new Primary cycle. Notice the green symmetrical triangle providing support and resistance. Crude price quickly broke the bottom of the symmetrical triangle. I’m looking for crude to move up and gain the lower end of the symmetrical triangle.

I’m looking for crude to find support at the May and June resistance areas. This assumes crude price moves below the boundary of the symmetrical triangle (green).

Crude may be quite volatile over the summer months and into the late summer (i.e. Sept 21, 2019). Obviously, the price of crude will go up if relations with Iran worsen. I’m expecting a rise in crude oil price by the fall timeframe.

Will China buy crude from Iran?

Closer in time crude price may rise short term at  Aug 12 where Jupiter turns Direct all +- 5 tds.

The red squares are the Jupiter / Neptune square. The next instance is the square forming on Sept 21.

Financial Astrology - August 19, 2019



Our posts are now reported on the highly regarded FXStreet.com.

Summary

We are entering the summer period where interest and action in the markets and financials in general usually dissipates somewhat. We will continue with the weekly blog posts but the posts will be shorter than usual with a couple of weekends off. I will get back to normal posts in late August.

From last week:
We have arrived at the 2 weeks in August which should see a reversal in trend or continuation of a move down.”

On August 18 Mars enters Virgo. This often equates to powerful market moves. We have covered Mars changing signs in some detail. Following is a daily chart of the SP500 and the red squares show when Mars entered a new sign.



Specifically, when Mars enters Virgo the markets have a history of sharp moves both up and down. The next 3 charts show some history of Mars changing signs into Virgo. See the days where there is a number of red x’s. They are daily charts of the DJIA.







The blue squares on the chart shows the Mars / Uranus trine which occurs on August 28 and also has a history of stock market turns.

So are we going up or down, based on a review of the history of Mars entering Virgo. A number of forecasters are looking for the markets to move up. I'm looking for the stocks and Gold to move down. Mars entering Virgo needs +_ 5 tds (trading Days). There is a lot of geopolitical pressure between the USA President and the FED and FED supporters.

For traders, ensure you always have stop loss orders in place. Both buy and sell.

Looking at the above I would say the markets may move lower, possibly to the end of the month or early September. Aug 19 may be powerful moves in the markets.

With so many powerful aspects it is difficult to pick one date. The forces of the aspects overlap. It should however, be very volatile where one can make money or lose money fast. This does not mean I’ll answer the many questions I receive. There’s not enough time in the day.

We may get another war but I'm looking at September 9, 2020 and beyond for a major war effort. That day Mars turns retrograde while squaring the conjunction of Saturn / Pluto.

SP500
We are entering the 11th week of a new Primary cycle which started on June 3, 2019. In the current situation I am looking for a crest of the 9 week cycle which may have already had on July 26. This would be the ½ Primary cycle crest and down.

Looking at the above summary, I would say the markets may move lower possibly to the end of the month or early September. Aug 12 and Aug 19 (+- 5 tds) may both be powerful moves in the markets. It should be volatile.

The potent Sun/ Mars conjunction will be in orb from now until the end of September. This conjunction has a record of stock market reversals.

Following is an up to date chart of the SP500. I am looking at a low in late August or early September. This may change as aspects unfold in August.

Much of the market’s movement will be due to the extent of the trade wars between China and the US.

Watch the 2844 area for the SP500. On the following chart you can see 2844 is the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement.



Jupiter square Neptune which we have mentioned numerous times may be the real problem as these planets in aspect can be quite inflationary. This may be pointing to serious financial problems late 2019 or early on 2020.

The Jupiter / Neptune square is still in scope and the effects are still being felt. The final exact square for Jupiter and Neptune is Sept 21. Falsehoods should be prevalent. Don't beleve what you hear. The Saturn / Pluto conjunction is also still in orb. Both will come back to exact conjunction.

Gold

Gold is entering the 12th week of the 18 week Primary cycle. This could be the 9 week cycle trough or ½ Primary cycle crest.

The Jupiter going Direct signature on Aug 11 is often associated with crests in gold prices..

The Uranus Retrograde signature is also more frequently associated with crests in gold.

Gold as well should be affected by Mars entering Virgo. Again I'm looking for this to turn Gold down. This also can be affected by geopolitical events and the battles at the FED.

We may be headed down but also watch for a big range day.



Crude's 

We had the Primary Cycle trough for crude oil on June 5th and are entering the 9th week of a new Primary cycle. Notice the green symmetrical triangle providing support and resistance. Crude price quickly broke the bottom of the symmetrical triangle. I’m looking for crude to move up and gain the lower end of the symmetrical triangle.

Crude may be quite volatile over the summer months and into the late summer (i.e. Sept 21, 2019). Sept 21 is the last Jupiter / Neptune square. As covered a number of times Jupiter and Neptune are co-rulers of crude and should have an effect on crude prices near the Sept 21 date.

Obviously, the price of crude will go up if relations with Iran worsen. I’m expecting a rise in crude oil price by the fall timeframe.

Will China buy crude from Iran?

Closer in time crude price may rise short term at Aug 12 where Jupiter turns Direct all +- 5 tds.

Our posts are now reported on the highly regarded FXStreet.com.

Summary

We are entering the summer period where interest and action in the markets and financials in general usually dissipates somewhat. We will continue with the weekly blog posts but the posts will be shorter than usual with a couple of weekends off. I will get back to normal posts in late August.

We have arrived at the 2 weeks in August which should see a reversal in trend or continuation of a move down.

On Aug 11 we have Uranus Retrograde and Jupiter Direct. Remember Jupiter is still in square aspect to Neptune. This still involves illusion / delusion and general questions of reliability.

This may change whatever trend is currently affecting the markets. Allow +- 5 td’s (trading days).

Jupiter Retrograde could be signaling a major turn +- 5 tds. If we are down closer to the date then look for a reversal up. If the market is up then look for a move down. On the SP500 daily chart below, it is possible Aug 5 / 6 was the low. I am looking for the low this coming week.

Also on Aug 11 Uranus turns retrograde. This signature equates to reversals but sometimes quite small.

On August 18 Mars enters Virgo. This often equates to powerful market moves.

For traders, ensure you always have stop loss orders in place. Both buy and sell.

Looking at the above I would say the markets may move lower, possibly to the end of the month or early September. Aug 12 and Aug 19 may both be powerful moves in the markets.

With so many powerful aspects it is difficult to pick one date. The forces of the aspects overlap. It should however, be very volatile where one can make money or lose money fast. This does not mean I’ll answer the many questions I receive. There’s not enough time in the day.

We may get another war but I'm looking at September 9, 2020 and beyond for a major war effort. That day Mars turns retrograde while squaring the conjunction of Saturn / Pluto.

SP500
We are entering the 10th week of a new Primary cycle which started on June 3, 2019. In the current situation I am looking for a crest of the 9 week cycle which may have already had on July 26. This would be the ½ Primary cycle crest and down.

Looking at the above summary, I would say the markets may move lower possibly to the end of the month or early September. Aug 12 and Aug 19 (+- 5 tds) may both be powerful moves in the markets. It should be volatile.

The potent Sun/ Mars conjunction will be in orb from now until the end of September. This conjunction has a record of stock market reversals.

Following is an up to date chart of the SP500. I am looking at a low in late August or early September. This may change as aspects unfold in August.

Much of the market’s movement will be due to the extent of the trade wars between China and the US.

Watch the 2958 area for the SP500. On the following chart you can see 2958 is the 23.6% Fibonacci level.



Jupiter square Neptune which we have mentioned numerous times may be the real problem as these planets in aspect can be quite inflationary. This may be pointing to serious financial problems late 2019 or early on 2020.

The Jupiter / Neptune square is still in scope and the effects are still being felt. The Saturn / Pluto conjunction is also still in orb. Both will come back to exact conjunction.

Gold

Gold is entering the 11th week of the 18 week Primary cycle. This could be the 9 week cycle trough or ½ Primary cycle crest.

The Jupiter going Direct signature on Aug 11 is often associated with crests in gold prices..

The Uranus Retrograde signature is also more frequently associated with crests in gold.

We may be headed down but also watch for a big range day.

Financial Astrology - August 5, 2019



Our posts are now reported on the highly regarded FXStreet.com.


Summary

We are entering the summer period where interest and action in the markets and financials in general usually dissipates somewhat. We will continue with the weekly blog posts but the posts will be shorter than usual with a couple of weekends off. I will get back to normal posts in late August.

The Fed ended questions by implementing a rate cut of .25 interest with the possibility there are two more to come…maybe.

Sun square Uranus aspect on July 29th was signaling a possible pullback in the SP500 and Gold.

On Aug 7, coming up we have the Sun in waning trine to Jupiter. This often signifies a ½ Primary crest and down.  It was in orb last week so the move down last week may be it.

Another pertinent aspect is Mercury turning direct on July 31, the day of the FOMC decision. Mercury turning direct often signifies a change in trend for the financial markets. The veil of confusion that follows Mercury retrograde gets a clearer path forward.

Coming up on Aug 11 we have Uranus Retrograde and Jupiter Direct.
This may change whatever trend is currently affecting the markets. Allow +- 5 td’s (trading days).

Jupiter Retrograde could be signaling a major turn +- 5 tds. If we are down closer to the date then look for a reversal up. If the market is up then look for a move down.

Also on Aug 11 Uranus turns retrograde. This signature equates to reversals but sometimes quite small.

On August 18 Mars enters Virgo. This often equates to powerful market moves.

Looking at the above I would say the markets may move lower possibly to the end of the month or early September. Aug 12 and Aug 19 may both be powerful moves in the markets.

With so many powerful aspects it is difficult to pick one date. The forces of the aspects overlap. It should however, be very volatile where one can make money fast. This does not mean I’ll answer the many questions I receive. There’s not enough time in the day. Also I’ve got a computer problem that may prevent me from responding.

We may get another war but I'm looking at September 9, 2020 and beyond for a major war effort. That day Mars turns retrograde while squaring the conjunction of Saturn / Pluto.

SP500
We are entering the 9th week of a new Primary cycle which started on June 3, 2019. In the current situation I am looking for a crest of the 9 week cycle which may have already had on July 26. This would be the ½ Primary cycle crest and down.



Looking at the above summary, I would say the markets may move lower possibly to the end of the month or early September. Aug 12 and Aug 19 may both be powerful moves in the markets. It should be volatile.

The potent Sun/ Mars conjunction will be in orb from now until the end of September. This conjunction has a record of stock market reversals.

Above is an up to date chart of the SP500. I’m looking for a possible trough. I’m looking at the Fibonacci retracement at 50% (2,879) and 61.8% (2,844) to be the area of the low. I am looking at a low in late August or early September. This may change as aspects unfold in August.

Jupiter square Neptune which we have mentioned numerous times may be the real problem as these planets in aspect can be quite inflationary. This may be pointing to serious financial problems late 2019 or early on 2020.

The Jupiter / Neptune square is still in scope and the effects are still being felt. The Saturn / Pluto conjunction is also still in orb. Both will come back to exact conjunction.

Gold

Gold is entering the 10th week of the 18 week Primary cycle. This could be the ½ Primary cycle crest.



Aug 2 finished with a strong Doji, a reversal signature. Also the ½ Primary cycle is due.

We may be headed down.


Crude's 

We had the Primary Cycle trough for crude oil on June 5th and are entering the 8th week of a new Primary cycle. Notice the green symmetrical triangle providing support and resistance.



I’m looking for crude to find support at the May and June resistance areas. This assumes crude price moves below the boundary of the symmetrical triangle (green).

This needs more confirmation. Crude may be quite volatile over the summer months and into the late summer (i.e. Sept 21, 2019). Obviously, the price of crude will go up if relations with Iran worsen. I’m expecting a rise in crude oil price by the fall timeframe.

Closer in time crude price may rise short term at Aug 7 (Sun waning trine Jupiter) and Aug 11 where Jupiter turns Direct all +- 5 tds.
