Financial Astrology - October 22, 2018



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

We have finally seen the move down we were waiting for.

SP500
The last Primary cycle trough was June 28, 2018. We are now about to enter the 17th week of the current Primary Cycle. The 18th week of the Primary cycle is the week of October 29.
This would normally be found +- 3 weeks or a range from 15 to 21 weeks.

Price is below the 15 day sma and the 45 day sma and the 15 day sma is below the 45 day sma. Both averages are curled over and pointed down. We are in a period of volatile congestion. The recent  move down is timing the 18 week Primary cycle and a 2 year cycle. The longer term cycles ( 2 year) can distort the smaller term cycles (18 week).

September 21 seems to be the crest of the Primary cycle. The trough, as mentioned above maybe distorted and stretch out a couple of weeks. The period around the USA mid-term elections of Nov 6 may be chaotic.

The following dates may have significant moves or start a move. When the Primary cycle trough is confirmed the later dates will not apply.

Oct 23             Sun opposition Uranus
Oct 24             Sun square North Node
                        If the SP500 has not moved up watch this date and +- 3 tds.
                        Full Moon
Oct 31             Venus opposition Uranus
Oct 26             Sun conjunct Venus
Nov 6              North Node enters Cancer
Nov 6              Uranus squares the North Node and enters Aries (backwards, it’s retrograde)
Nov 6              Sun trine Neptune
                        Often marks a high then down
Nov 7              Jupiter trine the North Node

If the markets have not moved significantly by the week of Nov 5 then Nov 16 may be the day of a bigger move. That's the day Venus turns Direct and Mercury turns Retrograde. This date is also
+- 3 td's.

As usual dates are a minimum +- 3 tds. On longer timed aspects a time frame will be included.

Nov 6 are the USA mid-term elections. We should be aware of actions by either political party which could affect the markets.



The following daily chart of the SP500 is what we have been showing under the 24 Harmonic chart. This is the basis of what we have been forecasting on.

Following is the 24 Harmonic chart we have shown for many months.



The next hits are Nov 13, 2018 and Jan. 2, 2019. The latter number is on the Uranus price line. Watch closely.

Both could be big moves or big range days.

Also hitting at this time is a 162 week cycle which is close to 3 years. For you Tesla fans
162 = ( 3 * 6  * 9 ). This hit a couple of weeks early.



The 9 month cycle



The above chart shows the 9 month or 39 week cycle (blue vertical lines). It was due and appears to have formed in late January. The 20 week cycle was added as well (red vertical lines). Any green lines are a combination of the 20 and 40 week cycles. The 20 week cycle was only 1 day away from the sharp move down.

From the last few posts:
“This coming year could see an increase in geophysical activity, both earthquakes and volcanos.”

See the link under “Earthquakes”. This is an application from the USGS.

There has been a number of volcano’s erupting as well. Japan and Hawaii.

On a longer term basis the following monthly chart of the DJIA  shows the 15 year cycle (red vertical lines) and the 45 year cycle (blue lines). The 15 year is due now or took place April – June 2018. The 45 year due in Sept 2019. This is another example of a longer-term cycle possibly distorting shorter term cycles. Bear in mind they need a broad orb.



Regarding a note from a reader the 45 year cycle is the ½ cycle to the 90 year cycle. It is the vertical blue lines.

The following daily chart of the SP500 shows 2 Envelope channels. Red is the centered 
20 week envelope channel. Blue is the centered 40 week envelope channel. The dark blue squares are the Sun / Neptune square which is often a short term change in trend.


We have had this noted it was due for a sell.  Also note the dark blue squares. They are the dates of the Mars square Uranus transit.



We are entering the difficult time mentioned over the last few months.

The envelope channel charts are easy to calculate. In the above case the blue lines are based on a 40 day average but when they are plotted they are centered. For a 40 day it will be shifted by 20 days which is the ½ cycle.

The red averages are based on the 20 week so they are shifted 10 weeks or a ½ cycle.

I brought up Iran on the last post. I’ll come back to those charts on any potential signs of conflict.

Longer Term
Uranus and the North Node.
Following is a monthly chart of the DJIA.

The red vertical lines are a 94 month cycle.

The main Astros on this chart are the aspects between Uranus and the North Node.

The small red circle is the conjunction.

The double arrow is the opposition.

The red square is the 90 degree square.

Note how the DJIA acted as these aspects are hit.

The next conjunction is in July 2022.

The next square is November 6, 2018. This is the same day as some other Astros above and the day of the mid-term election. 

November 6 may be a significant date.




4 Year
Other longer-term aspects like the 4 year cycle are coming due. The SP500 4 year cycle should be due in mid to late 2019.


Gold

Mercury moves out of Heliocentric Sagittarius on Oct 20th. This often results in sharp moves both up and down.

The Primary cycle in Gold has been difficult to ascertain. There was a Primary cycle trough on Dec 12, 2017 but determining the next Primary trough has been very difficult.

We may have seen a low on Aug 16th but it must be confirmed. This was 4 trading days after the Lunar Eclipse on Aug 11. We don’t want to see Gold below 1168.

We are now 43 td (trading days) from the potential Primary cycle low on Aug 16th. The sharp move up may be the beginning of the second 6 week cycle of the current Primary cycle. The Primary Cycle, which is 18 weeks (approx.) is often composed of 3, 6-week cycles.

On occasion the Primary cycle can extend away from it’s more normal 18 week length.

I’m looking for astrological aspects which have a history of changing the trend for Gold. Mars changing signs into Aquarius has a history of moves in Gold. So does Pluto Direct and Venus Retrograde / Direct. In addition Mercury into heliocentric Sagittarius has a history of moves in precious metals. Mercury enters helio Sagittarius on Oct 9th. The big move occurred on Oct 11.

Seasonally Gold is usually flat over the early summer months with a history of moving up starting in August.




Price is now above the 15 sma and the 45 day sma. Gold price often pulls back 2 to 4 weeks after a new Primary cycle commences and then continues with a move up. We are currently 9 weeks along.



The following chart shows two daily envelope channels like the chart for the SP500 above. The blue squares are the Sun square Neptune which often results in a short term change in trend. We should be getting close to a buy.



The following chart shows a 27 cd (calendar day) cycle (blue vertical lines). The last being Sept 27, 2018. The next is Oct 24th.The Moon takes 27 days to orbit the Earth and the Sun takes 27 days to revolve once at the Sun’s equator.

The red lines headed up are the Mars price lines. Gold had been moving sideways and have found both resistance and support at the Mars price line. The darker red Mars lines are the main aspect. Moving below the red Mars price line was bearish now we need to move above the red Mars price line as a positive sign for a move up in Gold which we got on Oct 11. Gold may follow the red, Mars price line up. Watch closely.

The small x’s on the chart show when heliocentric Mercury is in Sagittarius. We often see changes in trend in Gold when Mercury exits heliocentric Sagittarius.

Looking at this whole chart it is based on a 24 harmonic. If you count each line from one darker red line to the next you will find there are 15 of them. 15 * 24 degrees = 360 degrees.



The following chart shows when Mars enters a new sign.(red squares). It often affects Gold.



Crude

Oil appears we have put in Primary low on June 18th. We are entering the 17th week of the Primary cycle. Crude pulled back from Oct 3. Crude may have difficulty moving up from here.

With price action dropping watch the Fibonacci retracement levels from 61.8 and lower.

I’m looking to June 18 being the trough of the Primary Cycle. This was also the date Neptune turned retrograde. Neptune and Jupiter rule crude. August 19 had Jupiter trine Neptune, both co-rule crude. In addition, Mercury changes to direct motion, another sign of change.

Looking at Oct 5th was the 16 and 24 week cycles conjunct. This may have indicated a move down in crude.



Crude started up on June 18 when Neptune turned retrograde.



On the next chart note how price often follows the Sun price line up (green line) and often stops and reverses at the Pluto price line. We often get big range days.  The red vertical lines are the 40 cd (calendar day) lines.

Watch the green Sun price line and see if crude follows that price line up.

  1. Do you expect SP 500 to move up on October 23 -24 or a drop??

  2. I expect volatile congestion. On forecasting, I would look at any date with a minimum +- 3 td's (Trading days). The longer the aspect the wider the orb. We may start seeing increases in inflation. At least in the USA.

  3. I'm expecting the run up to the mid-terms will be volatile. If the GOP win then a move up.
