SP500
For the SP500, cycle-wise June 27 was the Primary cycle trough. 1 that puts us
entering the 9th week. Early in
a cycle is often the most bullish part. I was looking for a
possible 50 week low to coincide with the Primary trough and the move
off the June 27th Primary low seems to confirm this was the 50 week trough as
well.
The question is whether we had a nominal 6 week cycle low on
August 2nd or are we headed into a 1/2
Primary cycle ( nominal 9 week) with a range of 7.5 to 10.5 weeks.
It is quite possible Aug
15, which was a New All time High
for the SP500 and other major market indices, was a 1/2 Primary cycle top.
From last weeks blog:
"For those who
have followed this blog for awhile I've been looking at the week of
August 22nd through the first couple of weeks of September to be troublesome with potential war, major
terrorist events or violent weather. This could also be pointing to banking
problems or geophysical (earthquakes) events. I'm looking for earthquakes over 6 and I see there was an earthquake on
August 19 in the southern Atlantic ocean at
7.4. As I write this blog post on August 20th there has been a 6.0 earthquake off
the coast of Japan ."
From this months
subscriber report:
Sept 1 Violent weather or geophysical event. (this
should be +- a week) Italy
could have been it.
From the Special
Update sent to subscribers on August 14th.
"August 23, 24 Mars conjunct Saturn in
Sagittarius. This conjunction occurs on the fixed star Antares. Now Mars and Saturn are the
two malificts in Astrology.
These are two war aspects. Added to this is Antares.
(Ptolemy...It
causes malevolence, destructiveness, liberality, broad-mindedness, evil presages
and danger of fatality and
makes
its natives rash, ravenous, headstrong and destructive to themselves
by their own obstinacy.) The Sept 1 Solar eclipse will square Antares.
This looks like
signatures for war and conflict. It
could also be a geophysical
event."
The earthquakes on August
24 in Italy
was exactly on the date. There was also a 6.8 earthquake in Myanmar (Burma ) that day that got poor coverage in the western
media.
This rough period is going to continue through late September
and the next 2.5 weeks in particular. Subscribers have the critical dates and I
will undoubtedly be issuing another "Special Update" as we progress
through this rough period.
This weekend and early this coming week Mercury, Venus and
Jupiter will be in a short conjunction. Some Astrologers think we may get a
short respite where things seem somewhat better. Certainly Venus conjunct
Jupiter appears positive and Mercury somewhat so. On further inspection we find Jupiter in Virgo, is in it's
detriment. Also Venus enters Libra on August 29th a sign that often signifies a move down in stocks. I doubt any beneficial effect will be reflected on the markets or world events.
On August 30 Mercury
turns Retrograde. This is a time of some confusion and misdirected
communications. Mercury will be retrograde until September 22nd. That is an
auspicious date as Mars transits over the Galactic Center
and Mars being at it's peak of an "Out of Bounds" period.
The fact we are entering a period of confusion and
problematic communications may add fuel to the fire that is the US Presidential
Elections. Neither candidate appears very Presidential.
I'm in Canada and have no
dog in this fight but it should be obvious a change is needed in US politics
and we could say the politics of other western countries, including Europe, US, Canada .....etc.
Mercury retrograde often marks a period where communication
and such things as contracts are confusing. It is not a good time to sign
contracts or agree to some arrangement that will carry on into the future. At
the same time we are in the 10 day window before a powerful solar eclipse. This
also marks a period where one shouldn't sign contracts or any type of longer
term agreement. As noted in the recent "Special Update" such
agreements or decisions are fated and will work out in ways that are not
expected or intended. If possible wait on any agreements until after September
1st.
The immediate outlook is not pleasant with a strong solar
eclipse transiting the very close Saturn / Neptune square at the end of the
week. We could definitely see more geophysical events.
There has been so much lies and deceit over the last months
I'm hoping the Saturn aspect to Neptune coming
up will shed some light on these lies
and some truth comes forward. This is an
aspect of fear, so watch for it. Watch the days around Sept 10 when Saturn
is in waning square to Neptune . +- a couple of
weeks. This is the 36 year aspect.
I'm still looking for a move down in stocks between now
and Sept 12th. Things that have seemed
bottled up and stuck should be slowly released. In the USA Sagittarius rising
chart Saturn is close to the Ascendant. Saturn here, is approx 180 degrees (a
half cycle for Saturn) from the 9/11 event. This year Sept 11 is one day away
from the exact square between Saturn and Neptune. The Saturn / Neptune square
is the 36 year transit we have been talking about for months. Venus squares explosive Pluto on Sept 11.
Of course Sept 11 has special meaning in the USA . We had also mentioned violent
weather and the US Gulf states may be hit by very bad weather.
You can get a list of current earthquakes on the blog list
under "USGS M 4.5+ Earthquakes".
Subscribers received a separate report dealing with the 3 eclipses, now 2 eclipses and the main
Astrology aspects, that will occur over the next 3 weeks. They should be
potent.
Following is the daily chart of the SP500.
Some points on this chart of the Sp500.
- The two light blue lines show a broadening top. Markets
either bounce off the top line and move down or break through the rising line
and then reverse down or follow the top line up.
- The bolder blue line is the Heliocentric Bradley
indicator. Price started to move down after the August 15th all time high.
August 26th, a sharp reversal in the indicator may be indicating a change in
trend and speed up the decline. Subscribers see section 9 for definitions of
the Bradley.
- At the bottom of the daily chart the average True Range
(20 bars) usually puts in a low when price puts in a high. The weekly chart
shows the SP500 very overbought.
If there was only one word to describe the next month and a
half it would be "disruptive".
There are major aspects coming up and two eclipses. The
first lunar eclipse was August 18th and nothing of note happened. It was within
6 cd's of the Italian and Myanmar
earthquakes but I look to the Mars conjunct Saturn on the fixed star Antares as
the driving force for the eclipse.
Mars moved "out of bounds" on August 8th, this makes Mars more erratic and
unpredictable than usual. Remember Mars just entered Sagittarius, a mutable
fire sign normally aggressive and impulsive but not dominating.
Search the blog for definitions you don't understand.
If a subscriber, search section 9 of the monthly report. There are
many other important events occurring in August and September. Subscribers have
the dates. Late August and the first half of September could be a very
difficult period.
A chart we have not shown for awhile is a daily chart of the
SP500 with the average longitude of the
planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. The average longitude
of these planets is converted to price and displayed on the chart as the horizontal
blue lines. Look back and you will see this has acted as good support /
resistance. Currently t price has run up to the planetary average line but
didn't break through. We'll follow this chart over the next couple of weeks.
The planetary average currently bounced off the 2195 area.
Another chart is the daily SP500 with the Sun and Pluto
price lines. Green is the Sun and black is Pluto. Notice, the SP500 has been
stopped at the Pluto price line (black line) for some time and broke above the
Pluto line on August 5th. Also note
price often follows the Sun price line up. The SP500 dipped on August
17th but was stopped at the Sun price line (green). Price broke down through both the Sun and
Pluto price lines on August 26th.
With some
talk of raising rates by the FED the US $ may be reversing, and moving
up.
See the
following weekly chart of the US $ index.
The purple squares are the Uranus Retrograde dates. Note the US $ often turns
close to the Uranus Retrograde dates, both up and down.
Also note
the red vertical lines on the right side of the chart. This is the 26 week cycle. This has also been close
to short term changes in trend. This 26th week cycle occurred the same week as
the Uranus retrograde and the US $
is going down.
When Saturn turned direct in August it is headed
for the last exact waning square between Saturn and Neptune. This aspect has
created much of the tension, lies and deceit we have seen for the last number
of months. The date of the last exact square is September 10 but these longer term transits will color history
for many months afterwards and need a broad orb. This time period may
expose some long term deceit and there may be an illness or worse for a
current world leader.
This transit will be coloring the period of time (all year).
Lies and deceit continue
Saturn waning
square Neptune
-in the middle of a 3 pass, 2 exact hits to come this year
Saturn is about social order, structure and
regulations. Neptune can be
politically unrealistic and a desire to avoid confrontation. It can be devious,
underhanded and use subversive tactics.
This aspect is often present near times when there is a
change in trend for interest rates or inflation. It can also be a period of
epidemics, pandemics suffering, depression and money valuation problems. This
could be a change in the world's reserve currency or issues around it. A large
increase in precious metals is also possible as it is a money valuation issue.
This 36 year aspect has been associated with political changes, reforms and
development of socialism. One wonders in regards to epidemics and sickness,
would this be natural illnesses or man-made. If you feel depressed or not at
ease this aspect may be the cause. One of these planets may be hitting a planet
in your personal horoscope.
One of the cycles associated with eclipses is
the Metonic cycle. It is 19 years in length.
If we count back 19 years we have the time period
for Princess Diana tragic death. Watch the news and see if
something ties into the Royal Family. Perhaps uncovering some issue around the
Family or Princess Diana's death.
Another cycle for eclipses is the Saros cycle. This is an 18 year, 11 day, 8 hour cycle. It marks the return of the Sun, Earth and Moon to approx. the same location. It takes 3 successive eclipses to return to the same area on Earth. Eclipses in a Saros cycle takes approx. 18 years so 18 * 3 = 54 years.
If we look at the Sept 1 Solar eclipse it is approx. 54 years from the Cuban Missile Crisis. There are nuclear issues with theU.S. /
NATO locating nuclear tactical weapons in Europe
on the Russian border. There are nuclear issues in Turkey as well. Before this is
taken out of context, I am not forecasting nuclear war. This may be a time
where nuclear issues come to the fore however.

On the following weekly chart of the DJIA, the red squares
are Jupiter square Saturn, now past, and the green squares are
Saturn square Neptune . It's between these
two events that I have been looking for the Primary cycle low. We got it. After
Sept 10 +- we will drop this chart.
The
following chart shows a daily chart of the DJIA with the green squares which
denote the Saturn / Neptune waning square. The previous two exact dates were
during very volatile periods. I'm expecting the same as we approach the next
instance on Sept 10th.
Harmonics
I continue to watch the 24th
harmonic cycle (360 / 24) cycle between the Sun and Saturn, which are the brown
squares on the following daily chart. The next hits are Sept 1 then Sept 16th.. They are often at short changes in trend as
seen on the August 1 date which was followed by two strong moves down.
Gold
I was looking at May 31 as the
start of a new nominal 18 week cycle 1
trough.
This puts us entering the 13th week this coming week. We may have
put in a 1/2 Primary cycle or 9 week cycle on July 21st. It could also have
been the nominal 6 week cycle which has a range of 5 to 7 weeks.
I've been looking for Gold to move
down and it has. I'm now looking for a bottom this coming week. Bear in mind with all the difficult transits a change in trend may wait another week.
I'm now looking for a short term low in Gold then up to put in a lower high before moving lower later in September. I'm looking for another low in early October.
I'm now looking for a short term low in Gold then up to put in a lower high before moving lower later in September. I'm looking for another low in early October.
The red vertical lines are the 14 cd cycle (calendar date) which has
been at tops and bottoms for short term trend changes. The next date is Sept 8th.
On the following daily Gold charts
there are the Venus (green), Jupiter (blue). These are the longitude of the
planet converted to price. Note the big range day on Friday August 26th. The
following day Venus and Jupiter are conjunct and the price lines crossed. Gold often
makes a big move close to when the Venus and Jupiter price lines cross.
Crude
Feb 11 was the start of the previous Primary cycle. The crude cycle
trough hit again on August 3rd. This
was the day of the Sun / Neptune 24 harmonic. (see the price line chart
below). We are still early in a new
Primary cycle starting the 4th week.
The blue horizontal lines are the
average longitude of the planets from Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and
Pluto. The longitude is converted to price and put on the chart. It has acted
as good support / resistance in the past. Is this the pull back we often get
near the start of a new Primary cycle and then headed up? I think it is. I also assume this will be
choppy. Currently the indicators don't confirm this scenario. I'm watching all
aspects to Jupiter or Neptune.
Geocentrically the Solar eclipse
will oppose Neptune, the ruler of crude late in the week ahead.
Heliocentrically there are a number of transits hitting Jupiter and Neptune
from Sept 2nd through Sept 4th. These may move the price of crude or at least
bring the price to wider attention.
Mentioned many times Jupiter and
Neptune are the co-rulers of crude. Neptune is
in Pisces, the sign that it rules, making it stronger. Jupiter is currently in
Virgo the sign of it's detriment.
The following chart shows the
Jupiter (blue) and Neptune (grey) price lines. These have acted as good support
/ resistance. Note we have stopped on the Neptune
price line again.
The red squares are the 24th
harmonic between the Sun and Neptune . Amongst
other things this harmonic is for a "short term change in trend". The
next date is Sept 2. August 3rd was
the nominal 18 week cycle low.
