Over the next month there are a number of
significant Astrological events which could affect the markets. I have been
looking at these as generally negative but at the same time some of market
cycles we follow would appear to be near troughs and thus should be headed up.
My reading of this at the time of writing is we will hit some shocks which will
knock the market down then it will go up only to go down again with a more
serious low at the end of Jan’12 / early Feb ’13. This may change as the events
unfold.
First the general Astro out look.
Starting tomorrow Nov 23 Mars will be in
waning square to Uranus and begin it’s translation of the Uranus / Pluto waning
square and then Mars conjunct Pluto on November 27 If nothing else this period
should be volatile. The last time Mars translated this square was early August
2011. Remember any dates given are a minimum 3 +- trading days (tds). We are
still in the time period for significant earthquake activity. Volcanoes to if
you have been following that news.
One of the configurations present at the
moment is Saturn in Scorpio and both Mars and Pluto in Capricorn. This means these
planets are in mutual reception. Each in the others sign. Mars and Pluto
co-rule Scorpio and Saturn rules Capricorn. This fact, taken by itself, means
the mutual reception makes the planets named above stronger. In addition Mars
is exalted in Capricorn, the sign of it’s greatest strength. Aspects to these
planets will be stronger than normal. Mars conjunct Pluto is an aspect for war.
Other principles would be aggression, assertion, leadership and inflammation.
Pluto is the principle of power, both to destroy and to rebuild. Pluto demands
change, permanent change. These two together could also signify a terrorist
act. Pluto also rules debt so that subject may be back in the front page. Think
Europe and pick a southern country. Debt can
be for companies, banks or even governments entering a financial crises. For
the markets, Mars conjunct Pluto is often associated with primary cycle (nominal
18 week) troughs within 6 tds. I’ve been looking at Nov 16 as a possible
primary cycle trough.
Saturn in Scorpio creates tension. It is
intense, compulsive, vindictive and secretive.
Scorpio covers others people money, death
and taxes. Saturn is serious and initiates serious times. This combined with
the Mars Pluto conjunction may make for a very serious and unhappy time next
week. On Monday Nov 26 the Sun is in waning trine with Uranus which can result
in volatility in the markets.
Also on Nov 28 there is a Lunar eclipse.
This full Moon eclipse is in the Gemini, Sagittarius axis. It is located at Sun
6 degrees 46 minutes in Sagittarius with the Moon at 6 degrees 46 minutes in
Gemini. This is a very interesting placement as there is a Yod formation on
December 21, 2012 which has Venus opposite the apex of the Yod very close to 6
degrees Gemini. More about this Yod in a future post, but it is forming now
with Jupiter at the apex and Saturn sextile Pluto. Those 2 planets are very
strong right now (see mutual reception above. With Mercury turning direct near
this Lunar eclipse could we be seeing some secret accidentally exposed.
Treachery and terrorists comes to mind.
Watch the news next week.Certainly Greek finances and the US fiscal cliff would fit the scenarios above. I'll be looking for natal charts of countries, leaders and events that tie into 6 degrees of Sagittarius or Gemini. Planets in the early mutable signs can trigger earthquakes. I continue to worry.
