Financial Astrology - October 14, 2019

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

This post will be shorter than usual as it is Thanks Giving weekend up here in Canada.

Summary

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 are the changes in trend. I have circled that dates in blue. Note the upcoming dates (blue circles). These are all potential turn dates but ignore the direction of the red line. Give each occurrence an orb of +- 3 tds. (trading days).

Looking at October 8^th the SP500 started a move up. I am expecting the index to reverse this coming week. It is possible the low on Oct 3 was the Primary cycle trough. This is not definite but a possible turn. Oct 3 was the last time Mars entered a new sign.

Looking at the Bradley over the next few months, it goes sideways between two lines ( light blue). This ends near December 31 where the Bradley looks like a move down but, as we’ve seen it could be either direction. All dates are +- 3 tds.

The next sharp move in the Bradley is January 16, 2020. This is near a powerful aspect, Saturn conjunct Pluto in Capricorn.

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 Oct 16.

On October 4 Mars entered Libra. 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.

The red vertical lines are the 54 cd (calendar day) cycle.

We are entering the earthquake season. Keep an eye on the news.

SP500

We are entering the 19th week of the Primary cycle which started on June 3, 2019. It is possible we had the Primary cycle low on October 3^rd but not definite. We are also looking for the 40 week cycle trough.

Pluto turned direct on Oct 3. We always get a Sun square Pluto aspect approx.

11 cd’s (calendar days) after Pluto direct.

Nov 5 has Saturn parallel Pluto which may be a reflection of the Saturn / Pluto conjunction which occurs on January 12, 2020. This is powerful. The same day Mercury conjuncts Saturn and Pluto.

Mercury is about short term communication and trading.

Other periods which look stressful are:

Dec 15 , 2019  Jupiter trine Uranus

Dec 24, 2019  Sun trine Uranus

Jan 10, 2020   Uranus turns direct

Jan 12, 2020   Saturn conjunct Pluto (very powerful)

Saturn turning direct just 2 days before the last Jupiter / Neptune square on Sept 21.

Saturn Direct is a signature for the 50 week cycle trough. The 50 week cycle may join the current Primary cycle (18 week) and the 40 week as seen at the bottom of the SP500 chart. I am looking for a trough of all three in early to mid October.

The FED are talking about implementing QE again, but instructed not to call it Quantitative Easing. This is a short term fix to a serious debt problem. This is the type of situation that a Saturn / Pluto conjunction could manifest in.

Watch for the 27 CD (calendar day) cycle, next up on Oct 16, 2019. These are the vertical lines on the chart.

Following is an up to date daily 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 and on-going problems with Iran and now Turkey.

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 3rd. +- a few days. I’m looking for the Primary cycle trough early to mid Oct.

The 40 month:

<40month>

Price has now moved above the 45 day sma and above the 15 day sma. The light  blue line at the bottom of the chart is the 40 week cycle. It is due to go down to it’s trough along with the Primary cycle and 50 week cycle early to mid October.

Following is the envelope channel chart for the SP500. The envelope are centered moving averages. Note price made a low in August and bounced off the 20 day envelope.

Centered moving averages are used to find cycles.

The following chart shows the SP500 chart with some of the “Uranian School” uranian points. The dark blue line across the top of the chart is Admetos. Notice how price did not break through this line. Saturn is the light blue line. The Admetos and Saturn price lines in the top right side of the chart acted as resistance and price moved down in the top right area of the chart.

In the “Book of Rules", an old astrology book, Saturn / Admetos stand for “the greatest hindrance”

If you don’t know what the Uranian School or Admetos is use google.

The following chart shows planetary price lines. The red circle highlights the Jupiter / Saturn Price lines. I’m using the 24 harmonic. The red circle highlights the date, October 16, 2019.

Gold

Gold is entering the 20th week of the nominal 18 week Primary cycle. We are in the third and last 6 week cycle of the 18 week cycle. I’m looking at Sept 4 as the top of this Primary cycle. When moving down I look for the box. In this case the box is 38.2% to 50.0%.

When commodities are moving with such strength it is difficult to see a turn. Price has come down and is below the 15 and 45 day sma.

I’m looking for a trough in Gold over the next 2 weeks. In particular I’m looking at the week of Oct 7 and Oct 14^th.

The following daily chart for Gold show when heliocentric Mercury travels through Sagittarius. This is often a move in Gold and often a change in trend. The blue squares show when helio Mercury are going through Sagittarius starting on Sept 26 to Oct 7. Helio Mercury in Sagittarius are shown as the blue x’x in the following chart. We often see a positive move in Gold when helio Mercury is in Sagittarius.

Gold moved after Powel announced more QE, but he asked people not to call it QE.

But it is.

The following daily chart for Silver shows the 108 day cycle for Silver. These are the vertical red lines. The next date would be November 5^th.

The blue vertical lines are the 54 day or ½ cycle to the 108.

Crude's 

We had the Primary Cycle trough for crude oil on June 5^th and are entering the 18^th week of a  Primary cycle. Notice the green symmetrical triangle providing support and resistance. Crude price quickly broke the bottom of the symmetrical triangle then followed it up.

The price of crude is more dependent on geopolitical activity than any cycles or other techniques. Blowing up crude processing facilities is the fastest way of moving crude price up.Price has been getting support around the Fibonacci retracement at 61.8%. The point of the green symmetrical triangle saw crude price jump $6 which quickly fell back to the Fib retracement level.

From 2 weeks ago:

“There may be more significant moves in crude over the next week.

Crude has a dual rulership of both Jupiter and Neptune and will be directly affected by the Sept 21 Jupiter / Neptune square. As usual +- 3 tds.”

Crude may be quite volatile over this month. Obviously, the price of crude will go up if relations with Iran worsen. We can add Turkey to the list. I’m expecting a rise in crude oil price by the fall timeframe. We're almost their.

Will China buy crude from Iran?

Will Turkey bomb the Kurds? That’s happening now.

Following is the weekly Crude chart with the 17 month cycle (red vertical lines). It’s due early May 2020.
