SP500

For the SP500, cycle-wise June 27 was the last Primary cycle trough. 1 that puts us entering the 14th week. I was looking for a possible 50 week low to coincide with that Primary trough. The sharp move up after the June 27th Primary low seems to confirm this was the 50 week trough as well.

The next estimated Primary cycle ( aka nominal 18 week cycle)  low is October 24 +- 3 weeks with a range of October 3rd to November 14th. As we get closer I use the upcoming Astros to try and get a more exact reading on when the Primary cycle trough will occur. This will be included in the October Subscribers report. October 5th is one possibility; however, I think this may mark a lower high then the markets go down. This could goto the end of the week, October 7th where we have the Sun square Pluto.

One of the items in the September Subscribers Report was that we were about to enter a period of change. This will be slow at first and change into October and beyond. Friday, September 9th was the start with Jupiter entering Libra. Jupiter is about the judicial and religious worlds. It is about the justice system, prominent judges and barristers and the nation's wealth and bankers. The sign of Libra is about justice , it's sign looks like the scales of justice. Libra will bring more use of intuition and intelligence and also justice. Problems come in when firm decisions must be made. Libra is indecisive. We should also watch for the negative effects of Jupiter which are over-doing things, a laissez-faire attitude, failure to honour commitments particularly at the legal and financial level.

I think we'll be coming back to the "nation's wealth" issue.

This period of change is also a volatile period for the markets (October) , a period of social unrest and an unpredictable election in the USA.

Mars enters Capricorn on Sept 27th where it is exalted. One more piece of a move from mutable signs to Cardinal signs. Here Mars, male energy, is the initiator of action in the worldly environment and is kept in check by Saturn the ruler of Capricorn.

So what of other Astrology coming up. I'll include them in the October Subscribers Report. On another matter there is an old Wall Street saying..." Sell Rosh Hashanah and buy Yom Kipper". Keep in mind it does not always work.

The dates coming up are

October 2 Rosh Hashanah

October 12 Kipper

I'm still looking for some secret to be exposed or deceit. Maybe it's Julian Assange of WikiLeaks.

There are many other things like a perigee Full Moon, aka Supermoon this month.

Following is the daily chart of the SP500.

Following is a chart of the planetary average longitude. The vertical blue lines are based on the average longitude of the planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto which are converted to price. The levels this calculates typically are excellent points to place sell or buy stops. I often use them with Fibonacci retracement levels as well.

Another chart is the daily SP500 with the Sun and Pluto price lines. Green is the Sun and black is Pluto. Notice, the SP500 was stopped at the Pluto price line (black line) during the day and fell back close to the Sun price line at the close. Watch this to see if the SP500 can move up, through the Pluto price line.

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. Currently the weekly trend is still up but the US$ continues sideways from March 2015. Without any World Event it looks like the US$ will rise into at least January 2017.

The Saturn waning square to Neptune was exact on September 10. Although the effects of this transit can still be felt it is now waning energy as these two planets are now starting their journey to a conjunction in February 20, 2026.

We'll watch this square as other planets make aspects to either Saturn or Neptune. Lies and deceit continue

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 Oct. 4th then October 21. They are often at short changes in trend as seen on the August 1 date which was followed by two strong moves down. Watch October 4th next week as we were looking for a trigger to start the SP500 moving down.

"What everyone is looking for, is what is looking."
-- St. Francis of Assisi

Gold

I was looking at May 31 as the start of a nominal 18 week cycle   ¹ trough.

Gold has been going sideways but now entering the 17th week of the Primary cycle ( aka nominal 18 week cycle). I'm watching around Oct 5th where we have the Mars square to Jupiter. This has a history with Primary cycle turns but needs +- a few days. Remember if I give a date it is a minimum of +- 2 td's (trading days). So we may see the start of a new Primary cycle shortly. Expect volatility.

The US elections could start interfering with the normal length of cycles if it gets to the end of October without hitting it's trough. Precious metals in particular, could be very volatile and could spring up.

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 October 6th.

The next chart shows the planetary averages from Jupiter to Pluto set to 15 degrees (blue horizontal lines).  Again these have been good support and resistance.

The red vertical are a 400 cd cycle which is close to 13.2 months. It is the red circle which is Sun conjunct Neptune.

Crude

Feb 11 was the start of the previous Primary cycle. The crude cycle trough hit again on August 3rd where we have another Primary Cycle trough (PB).

We have had a Major cycle (aka 6 week cycle) crest (MT) and a Major cycle trough (MB) and are going up into the second Major cycle of the Primary cycle.

I'm watching all aspects to Jupiter or Neptune, the two rulers of crude.

The following weekly chart of crude has a 16 week (red) and 24 week (blue) cycles. Where they land together red + blue = green.

The green cycle has been at both highs and lows in crude and sometimes very sharp moves. Watch this the week of October 10th particularly Oct 11 and Oct 17th.

SP500

For the SP500, cycle-wise June 27 was the last Primary cycle trough. 1 that puts us entering the 13th week. I was looking for a possible 50 week low to coincide with that Primary trough. The sharp move up after the June 27th Primary low seems to confirm this was the 50 week trough as well.

The next estimated Primary cycle (nominal 18 week cycle)  low is October 24 +- 3 weeks with a range of October 3rd to November 14th. As we get closer I use the upcoming Astros to try and get a more exact reading on when the Primary cycle trough will occur. This will be included in the October Subscribers report.

I have been looking at September 22-26 as a CIT (Change In Trend) for the major market indices in the US markets from which the markets would trend down to the Primary cycle trough. This won't be straight down, expect some volatility. September 26 could end up being a big range day.

Although the last exact date has passed we'll watch aspects to either Saturn or Neptune for the next few months. Long term aspects like this can have an effect for months and color the background of history. The longer it goes the weaker the effect.

One of the items in the September Subscribers Report is that we are about to enter a period of change. This will be slow at first and change into October and beyond. Friday, September 9th was the start with Jupiter entering Libra. Jupiter is about the judicial and religious worlds. It is about the justice system, prominent judges and barristers and the nation's wealth and bankers. The sign of Libra is about justice , it's sign looks like the scales of justice. Libra will bring more use of intuition and intelligence and also justice. Problems come in when firm decisions must be made. Libra is indecisive. We should also watch for the negative effects of Jupiter which are over-doing things, a laissez-faire attitude, failure to honour commitments particularly at the legal and financial level.

This week we had the Wells Fargo CEO in front of the Senate Banking committee and announcements from the FOMC and BOJ. Much to do about banks.

This coming week Mars enters Capricorn on Sept 27th where it is exalted. One more piece of a move from Mutable signs to Cardinal signs. Here Mars, male energy, is the initiator of action in the worldly environment and is kept in check by Saturn the ruler of Capricorn.

So what of other Astrology coming up. This weekend has Uranus conjunct Eros, the latter being one of the newer dwarf planets. Eros represents a number of things. With Eros conjunct Uranus in fiery Aries we may see sudden strife and discord. One Astrologer described Eros as the female Mars. So watch for sudden conflict, either with ISIS or more social unrest.

On Monday we have Pluto turning Direct and the Sun conjunct Jupiter, both signatures where we have had turns and reversals in the US indices. Mars moving into Capricorn is mentioned above.

I'm still looking for some secret to be exposed or deceit.

Following is the daily chart of the SP500.

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) and fallen back close to the Sun price line.. Watch this to see if the SP500 can move up, through the Pluto price line.

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. Currently the weekly trend is still up but the US$ continues sideways from March 2015.

The Saturn waning square to Neptune was exact on September 10. Although the effects of this transit can still be felt it is now waning energy as these two planets are now starting their journey to a conjunction in February 20, 2026.

We'll watch this square as other planets make aspects to either Saturn or Neptune. Lies and deceit continue

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 Oct. 4th then October 21. 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 looks like Gold will continue down with volatility to either the Sept 26 area, where we have Pluto direct, Sun conjunct Jupiter and the 45 cd (calendar day) I follow or the week of October 10 both +- a few.

The Primary cycle trough is measured to be around the middle of October although we could get a shortened Primary cycle during the week of September 26th. We are currently 16 weeks along. Watch for the Primary cycle trough in Gold at any time. The US elections could start interfering with the normal length of cycles. Again we are reviewing Astros over the next few weeks to better define when we will hit the Primary cycle trough.

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 October 6th.

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 days when Venus is semi-sextile  Jupiter (small red circle). The next one is October 26th. The next trading day was Sept 6 and it continued.

The next chart shows the planetary averages from Jupiter to Pluto set to 15 degrees (blue horizontal lines).  Again these have been good support and resistance.

The red vertical are a 400 cd cycle which is close to 13.2 months. It is the red circle which is Sun conjunct Jupiter. The next date September 26 or 27th and could be a turn in Gold.

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 8th 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. If the high on August 19 is the high for this Primary cycle it would be very left translated and very bearish. I'm waiting to see if we have a turn in crude either Sept 22 or 26th. I'm watching all aspects to Jupiter or Neptune, the rulers of crude.

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 just moved into Libra.

The following chart shows the Jupiter (blue) and Neptune (grey)  price lines. These have acted as good support / resistance.

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". Crude has reacted very well to the 24th harmonic lately.

The next two 24th harmonic dates are Sept 30th and Oct 17th.

SP500

For the SP500, cycle-wise June 27 was the last Primary cycle trough.  1 that puts us entering the 12th week. I was looking for a possible 50 week low to coincide with that Primary trough. The sharp move up after the June 27th Primary low seems to confirm this was the 50 week trough as well.

The next estimated Primary cycle (nominal 18 week cycle)  low is October 24 +- 3 weeks with a range of October 3rd to November 14th.

As I write this note, the last waning square of Saturn and Neptune was exact on September 10.  There mid-point was 25 degrees, 23 minutes in Capricorn for you mid-point guys / ladies. On September 19, 2016 Venus will square this mid-point. This is an experiment. Watch Monday closely. I'm looking for a move down.

Although the last exact date has passed we'll watch aspects to either Saturn or Neptune for the next few months. Long term aspects like this can have an effect for months. The longer it goes the weaker the effect.

So we've had sharp moves in the markets, earthquakes, violent weather and testing a nuclear bomb over the last few weeks. Quite eventful but now we are in a time for change as outlined in the September subscribers report.

One of the items in the September Subscribers Report is that we are about to enter a period of change. This will be slow at first and change into October and beyond. Friday, September 9th was the start with Jupiter entering Libra. Jupiter is about the judicial and religious worlds. It is about the justice system, prominent judges and barristers and the nation's wealth and bankers. The sign of Libra is about justice , it's sign looks like the scales of justice. Libra will bring more use of intuition and intelligence and also justice. Problems come in when firm decisions must be made. Libra is indecisive. An old saying is "Peace at any price", Librans. We should also watch for the negative effects of Jupiter which are over-doing things, a laissez-faire attitude, failure to honour commitments particularly as the legal and financial level.

I think we'll be coming back to the "nation's wealth" issue.

So what of the Astrology coming up. This week the Sun will join Venus and Jupiter in Libra on September 22nd.

We've mentioned September 19 above, that's experimental. Other Astrological events this week are Mercury turning Direct on September 22nd. Mercury rules trading, that is buying and selling and the stock market. Mercury also rules communication and agreements. So things tend to fluctuate during the retrograde period. Short trips, finalizing agreements or big purchases should be avoided if possible. On Sept 22 there is also Sun parallel Jupiter which has a history of appearing at lows or the start of a move down.

This is one day after the FOMC meeting at which a decision to raise rates may be made. I emphasize "may". Covered many times, Mercury is known as the trickster and the retro period is not a good time to make decisions, or sign contracts or agreements. It's about confusion and mis-directed energy. Mercury Direct also has a history of cycle turns, sometimes short term.

Following is a chart showing Mercury on a daily chart of the SP500. The red arrow pointing left is when Mercury turns retrograde and the blow arrow pointing right is Mercury turning direct. The I and S show the Inferior and Superior conjunctions. Only Mercury and Venus can have Inferior and Superior conjunctions as they are inside the Earth's orbit. These were shown last week,

From the video.

September 22nd. That is an auspicious date as it is 1 day after the FOMC and Mars transits over the Galactic Center. This is often near lows or market turns. Mars will be at it's peak of an "Out of Bounds" period. This also has the Sun parallel Jupiter which also has a history of moving down. With the FED's history I was expecting no change in interest rates but there are a number of Astros pointing in the direction of a low.

I'm still looking for some secret to be exposed or deceit.

Venus, which amongst other things rules money is going to parallel Neptune on Sept 17 and Venus will oppose Uranus on Sept 18.

Following is the daily chart of the SP500.

Following is a chart of the planetary average longitude.

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 below the Pluto line on August 31. On Sept 2nd it broke above the Pluto price line and put in a high which stopped at the Sun Price Line (green). Price has now failed at the Sun price line.

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. Currently the weekly trend is still up. The US$ is still up because there are few alternatives.

The Saturn waning square to Neptune was exact on September 10. Although the effects of this transit can still be felt it is now waning energy as these two planets are now starting their journey to a conjunction in February 20, 2026. Well, I told you they were slow moving.

We'll watch this square as other planets make aspects to either Saturn or Neptune. Lies and deceit continue

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 16 then October 4th. 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.

I was looking for Gold to move down starting August 29th. It did and found a low at the Major cycle low (6 week)  then had a short bounce and now starting down again. This looks like Gold will continue down with volatility to either the Sept 26 area, where we have Pluto direct, Sun conjunct Jupiter and the 45 cd (calendar day) I follow  or the week of October 10 both +- a few. Either way I'm looking for a move up in precious metals, probably late September or early October.

The Primary cycle trough is measured to be around the middle of October although we could get a shortened Primary cycle during the week of September 26th. The US elections could start interfering with the normal length of cycles.

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 22nd.

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 September 2nd and 6th. The Sun was in opposition to Neptune on Sept 2nd which often has a strong effect on Gold. The next trading day was Sept 6 and it continued. The closing price is just above the Venus (green) price line. If the Jupiter line (blue)does not hold then the Venus line at 1286 - 1293 would be the next lines of support.

The next chart shows the planetary averages from Jupiter to Pluto set to 15 degrees (blue horizontal lines).  Again these have been good support and resistance. The red vertical are a 400 cd cycle which is close to 13.2 months. It is the red dot close to the vertical red line. The next date is September 27. September 26 or 27th could be a turn in Gold.

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 7th 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. If the high on August 19 is the high for this Primary cycle it would be very left translated and very bearish. I'm waiting to see if we have a turn in crude either Sept 22 or 26th. I'm watching all aspects to Jupiter or Neptune, the rulers of crude.

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 just moved into Libra.

The following chart shows the Jupiter (blue) and Neptune (grey)  price lines. These have acted as good support / resistance.

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". Crude has reacted very well to the 24th harmonic lately.

The next two 24th harmonic dates are Sept 16th and Sept 30th. Sept 16th is the Lunar eclipse. Currently crude has support on the Neptune (grey) price line.

SP500

For the SP500, cycle-wise June 27 was the last Primary cycle trough.  1 that puts us entering the 11th week. I was looking for a possible 50 week low to coincide with that Primary trough. The sharp move up after the June 27th Primary low seems to confirm this was the 50 week trough as well.

As I write this note, the last waning square of Saturn and Neptune is exact today September 10th. That's 25 degrees, 23 minutes in Capricorn for you mid-point guys / ladies.

Remember what I've said about the 11th day of a month. Some important events in US history have occurred on the 11th of a month. This does not mean every month but often enough to be aware. The next estimated Primary cycle low is October 24 +- 3 weeks.

Some of the points I've made in this blog and monthly report. Let me also make the point the difficult period is not over.

"The main thrust of this report is we are entering a more volatile period for the markets and world events. This is being stimulated by the Astrological aspects and events. Although many indices may have positive appearances the FED is supporting the markets with low rates. The market has become very over valued."

"A break from the side-ways chop and more volatile activity is expected, maybe as early as this week or shortly after the Sept 10th Saturn / Neptune square."

"This rough period is going to continue through late September and the next 2.5 weeks in particular.  Subscribers have the critical dates ....."

"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....."

"....there will be another Lunar eclipse which appears much stronger than the Lunar eclipse on August 18th. The next one occurs on September 16th"

" There has been so many 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 had mentioned the possibility of earthquakes and violent weather during this period."

So we've had sharp moves in the markets, earthquakes, violent weather and testing a nuclear bomb.

One of the items in the September Subscribers Report is that we are about to enter a period of change. This will be slow at first and change into October and beyond. Friday was the start with Jupiter entering Libra. Jupiter is about the judicial and religious worlds. It is about the justice system, prominent judges and barristers and the nation's wealth and bankers. The sign of Libra is about justice , it's sign looks like the scales of justice. Libra will bring more use of intuition and intelligence and also justice. Problems come in when firm decisions must be made. Libra is indecisive. An old saying is "Peace at any price, Librans. We should also watch for the negative effects of Jupiter which are over-doing things, a laissez-faire attitude, failure to honour commitments particularly as the legal and financial level.

I think we'll be coming back to the "nation's wealth" issue.

So what of the Astrology coming up.

Mercury is about half way through it's retrograde period and turns direct on September 22nd. This is one day after the FOMC meeting at which a decision to raise rates may be made. I emphasize "may". Covered many times, Mercury is known as the trickster and the retro period is not a good time to make decisions, or sign contracts or agreements. It's about confusion and mis-directed energy. Go ahead and plan. Mercury has it's most effect on people who know nothing about it.

Following is a chart showing Mercury on a daily chart of the SP500. The red arrow pointing left is when Mercury turns retrograde and the blow arrow pointing right is Mercury turning direct. The I and S show the Inferior and Superior conjunctions. Only Mercury and Venus can have Inferior and Superior conjunctions as they are inside the Earth's orbit.

The Inferior conjunction has Mercury between the Earth and the Sun.

The Superior conjunction has Mercury on the opposite side of the Sun.

September 22nd. That is an auspicious date as it is 1 day after the FOMC and Mars transits over the Galactic Center. This is often near lows or market turns. Mars will be at it's peak of an "Out of Bounds" period.

The immediate outlook is still not pleasant with strong Lunar eclipse.

I'm still looking for some secret to be exposed. I thought it might news of Charles Ortel but that didn't make it to the main stream media. Saturn in strong aspect to Neptune is not only illusion and delusion but also fear. If Saturn is transiting over planets in your natal horoscope you will feel it.

Neptune's energy is about disillusion, that is, it dissolves the current structure. Where Saturn represents that which is solid and the status quo. Neptune breaks down the current structures and status quo. I'm hoping Neptune brings some light to the lies and deceit which have part of the last number of months. Neptune is also inflation. Look for this to pick up after the Saturn / Neptune waning square.

Venus, which amongst other things rules money. It is going to square Pluto on

September 11. There are a number of other potent aspects reserved for subscribers.

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 big move down on September 9 was 1 day before the Saturn squared Neptune exact date. Is this going to be a change in trend? I think so though we may have a volatile period for a few weeks and of course the September 21 FOMC, rate decision meeting.

- The bolder red line is the Geocentric Bradley indicator. Price started to move down after the August 15th all time high. September 9 has a turn in the Bradley. So does September 19th and September 29th. Subscribers see section 9 for definitions of the Bradley and how to read it.

- At the bottom of the daily chart the average True Range (20 bars) usually puts in a low when price puts in a high.

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 one 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 September. Subscribers have the dates. The second half of September could be a very difficult period.

The following daily chart of the SP500 shows 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 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. This area could be the high for some time.

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 below the Pluto line on August 31. On Sept 2nd it broke above the Pluto price line and put in a high which stopped at the Sun Price Line (green). Price has now failed at the Sun price line.

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. Currently the weekly trend is still up. The US$ is still up because there are few alternatives.

The Saturn waning square to Neptune is exact today September 10.

This transit will be coloring the period of time (all year) although it's strongest effect is near the exact date. We'll watch this square as other planets make aspects to either Saturn or Neptune. Lies and deceit continue

Saturn waning square Neptune (for the last time)

-in the middle of a 3 pass, 1 exact hit to come this year on Sept10th.

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. Like dripping water on rock it can slowly change the structures Saturn built.

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.

Neptune can be the height of spirituality or illusion, delusion and deceit. Saturn is reality, Karmic debt, contraction, depression, sorrow and disappointment. When these planets meet look for political changes and reforms. Self sacrifice may come to the fore. This aspect seems to have a history with the British Royal Family.

Neptune can also breakdown or dissolve the status quo (Saturn). It is Neptune which I have been looking at as a trigger to expose some type of big lie / secret.

The following chart shows a daily chart of the SP500 with the blue squares which denote the Saturn / Neptune waning square and red squares which show the Venus / Pluto 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.

With the recent activity in North Korea I'm watching all aspects for Mars (war-like)  which is currently in Sagittarius a mutable fire sign. Coming up on Tuesday is the Sun in waning square to Mars.

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 16 then October 4th. They are often at short changes in trend as seen on the August 1 date which was followed by two strong moves down.

“The further a society drifts from the truth, the more it will hate those who speak it.”

-- George Orwell

Gold

I was looking at May 31 as the start of a new nominal 18 week cycle   ¹ trough.

I was looking for Gold to move down starting August 29th. It did and found a low at the Major cycle low (6 week)  then had a short bounce and now starting down again. This looks like Gold will continue down with volatility to either the Sept 26 area, where we have Pluto direct  or the week of October 10 both +- a few.

The Primary cycle trough is measured to be around the middle of October. The US elections could start interfering with the normal length of cycles.

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 22nd.

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 September 2nd and 6th. The Sun was in opposition to Neptune on Sept 2nd which often has a strong effect on Gold. The next trading day was Sept 6 and it continued. The closing price is just above the Venus (green) price line.

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 6th 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. If the high on August 19 is the high for this Primary cycle it would be very left translated and very bearish. I suspect we will be going up. I'm watching all aspects to Jupiter or Neptune, the rulers of crude.

Geocentrically the Solar eclipse was Sept 1st. That was the day crude stopped going down and went up. (Note: the dark blue vertical line is a bug in the software I'm using) The Sun opposed Neptune, the ruler of crude on Sept 2nd and on Sept 9 when crude went down it was 1 day away from Saturn squaring Neptune. I'm watching the period around October 10th for a move in crude.

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 just moved into Libra.

The following chart shows the Jupiter (blue) and Neptune (grey)  price lines. These have acted as good support / resistance.

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". Crude has reacted very well to the 24th harmonic lately.

From last week.

Sept 2 then may be a change in trend meaning up. Note it started low and closed higher.  

The next two 24th harmonic dates are Sept 16th and Sept 30th. Sept 16th is the Lunar eclipse.

SP500

For the SP500, cycle-wise June 27 was the last Primary cycle trough.  1 that puts us entering the 10th week. I was looking for a possible 50 week low to coincide with the Primary trough. The sharp 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.

The earthquakes on August 24 in Italy was exactly on the date of the Mars / Saturn conjunction. There was also a 6.8 earthquake in Myanmar (Burma)  that day that got poor coverage in the western media.

On September 1st there was a Solar eclipse and on September 16 there will be another Lunar eclipse which appears much stronger than the Lunar eclipse on August 18th.

From last weeks blog:

"This rough period is going to continue through late September and the next 2.5 weeks in particular. Subscribers have the critical dates ....."

Also from weeks blog post:

"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....."

There was a 7.1 earthquake on September 1 off the coast of New Zeeland , a large hurricane which hit landfall on the Gulf side in Florida and is tracking to go up the East coast  and a another cyclone about to hit Japan. What we haven't seen is an increase in war activity or major terrorist event. Hopefully we won't be seeing these over the next few weeks but I'm expecting further trouble.

On August 30 Mercury turned 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 will be at it's peak of an "Out of Bounds" period. Historically Mars conjunct the GC has been near lows in the US stock markets or at least turns.

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.

The immediate outlook is not pleasant with strong Solar eclipse transiting the very close Saturn / Neptune square at the end of the week. Solar eclipses can be in effect for weeks after the actual date.

To continue with problems the Sun is conjunct the North Node on September 4th and the 3rd and final pass of the Saturn/ Neptune waning square occurs on September 10th.

There has been so many 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. See notes below.

Neptune's energy is about disillusion, that is, it dissolves the current structure. Where Saturn represents that which is solid and the status quo. Neptune breaks down the current structures and status quo. I'm hoping Neptune brings some light to the lies and deceit which have part of the last number of months. Neptune is also inflation. Look for this to pick up after the Saturn / Neptune waning square.

Subscribers received a separate report dealing with the 3 eclipses, now 1 eclipse 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 one eclipse. 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 that 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 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. This area could be the high before a reversal.

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 below the Pluto line on August 31. On Sept 2nd it broke above the Pluto price line and put in a high which stopped at the Sun Price Line (green). Also note price often follows the Sun price line up. 

With the low employment report raising rates is off the table. The US$ appears to be starting a move 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, 1 exact hit to come this year on Sept10th.

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.

Neptune can be the height of spirituality or illusion, delusion and deceit. Saturn is reality, Karmic debt, contraction, depression, sorrow and disappointment. When these planets meet look for political changes and reforms. Self sacrifice may come to the fore. This aspect seems to have a history with the British Royal Family.

Neptune can also breakdown or dissolve the status quo (Saturn). It is Neptune which I have been looking at as a trigger to expose some type of big lie.

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 the U.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 16 then October 4th. 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 was looking for Gold to move down starting last week. It did and  now due for a short bounce before it starts down again. The Primary cycle trough is measured to be around the middle of October. The US elections could start interfering with the normal length of cycles. Gold will have a range from the week of Sept 19 through the week of October 24th.

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 September 2nd.  The closing price is just above the Venus (green) price line.

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 5th 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. If the high on August 19 is the high for this Primary cycle it would be very left translated and very bearish. I suspect we will be going up. I'm watching all aspects to Jupiter or Neptune, the rulers of crude.

Geocentrically the Solar eclipse will oppose Neptune, the ruler of crude late in the week. 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". Sept 2 then may be a change in trend meaning up. Note it started low and closed higher.
