know that it is. – Oscar Wilde.

Could the heavenly wanderings of an old Greek
god have an impact on world stock markets?
Could the position of the planet Jupiter, Moon,
Sun etc.. consistently predict the timing of Bull
market tops and Bear bottoms?
According to recent research tracking 140
years of prices on Wall Street, the answer is a
simple: YES.
In the Greek mythology, ZeusèJupiter was
head honcho of the Old Gods. The ancient
Greek tales, when studied in depth are Creation
stories charting the history of the world.
And the tales form the basis of the system
of astrology still used in the Western world.
They also have counterparts in other cultures.
In Vedic astrology and the Hindu religion, for
example, ZeusèJupiter has a counterpart in the
figures of GURU è GANESH.
In both cases, this “king” of gods introduces
the concept that one can break free - spiritually
or materially. In brief, Jupiter is the symbol of
growth and expansion.
And Jupiter’s cycle through the zodiac shows
up a very interesting statistical tendency in
stock markets.
Trading the mood swings of the monthly Lunar
cycle will produce three-to-six times the profit
of a simple, buy-and-hold strategy.
When studying the horoscopes of nations and
large communities, New Moon charts take a
step behind Solar Ingress charts.
The entry of the Sun into the four cardinal signs
of the zodiac is very important ,as each of them
give us a broad overview of what to expect in
the seasonal months following each cardinal
ingress.
Technical analysis is primarily used to predict
whether the market is in an uptrend or a
downtrend. When using technical analysis
in combination with astrology you will be
able to time trades and choose stocks that
outperform the market while greatly reducing
your risk. One should always use the basic principles of financial astrology. Technical
tools can be employed as a useful adjunct
to astrological transits affecting the markets
overall Incorporation chart, to help time entry
and exit points.
Trading Styles---Technical Analysis---
Astrological Transits
There are many tools one can use in trading.
Analysis and forecasting tools - recommended
for Short Term traders and Day Traders.
However, any style of traderè investor can
benefit from using these tools in conjunction
with planetary cycle analysis
Whether you have decided to become a trader
with a particular time frame in mind for entering
and exiting your trades, or you would rather
be an investor with a long term buy and hold
strategy, the best place to begin is with a basic
understanding of the principles of financial
astrology
Styles of tradingèinvesting can be defined
in various ways and categories. But the most
important style of trading is the one that fits for
you. Based upon your individual natal horoscope
you define your style of trading or investing.
An individual's
chart is focused
on the financial
implications of the
planets in their
signs and houses
in YOUR chart.
Personality is
perhaps the most
critical aspect of
choosing a trading
style.
1. I n t r a - d a y
trading, (day
t r a d i n g ) ,
is done by
professional
f u l l - t i m e
traders who
take an
aggressive approach to trading, taking
both Long or Short positions. The positions
day traders take can be held from a few
seconds to a few hours or an entire day.
Most day traders exit their positions before
the end of the day, but there are some who
don't. Timing is critical for Day traders,
as they need to find the proper windows
during which positions can be entered and
exited. Using astrology, day traders always
consider the movement and aspects of
the Moon as the most important timing
indicator.
2. Short Term trading is a tradingèinvestment
style used by those traders who desire to
participate in the stock market in a dynamic
and aggressive way, but do not have the
time for day trading. They can take various
positions in the market - Long or Short -
but usually hold their positions for a time
span of a week or less. The majority of their
decisions are based on price trends and
patterns.
When short term trading and using astrology,
all the planets - in addition to the Moon - must
be considered.
3. Long Term Trading (Buy and Hold) is
basically what is called Investing. It is a
style in which one should interpret long
term trends and consider fundamental data
as well as looking at technical indicators
in order to make the best decisions for a
position meant to be held for a greater
length of time. Long term investing works
well for those who desire to have a "hands
off" approach compared to the other
traders and trading styles. It is also the way
most individuals approach investing for
their retirement portfolios. Positions can be
held as long as a year or even longer.
When using astrology for investing long term,
the most important planets to consider are the
outer planets. The most important planets are
Jupiter and Saturn, but also Uranus, Neptune
and Pluto can influence a stock or an index.
Brightest and seasoned financial astrologers
including Claude Weiss, Bill Meridian, Arch
Crawford, Grace Morris, Ray Merriman astro -
analytically predict.
" We know stocks have some good & bad
transits coming up over the next few months
– or belong to a sector where they can be
expected to rise or fall because of the impact
of mundane Jupiter, Saturn, Moon, Sun...."
The safest, and potentially most profitable, buyin
è sell-out points are when the stock’s price is
just beginning to bounce upwardsèdownwards
from a trend line, or support line.
Most of these financial gurus are from India
and Europe, where there is a wider acceptance
of their — calling. They even have their own
trade association, the International Association
for Astrological Research. For the financial
fortune tellers in the U.S., their out-of-this
world research is used by individual investors
and brokers as a compliment to traditional
analysis.
Not New But , Legendary Wisdom.
• There is a book called the Bourse of Babylon
that shows that people followed astrology
as it relates to the price of wheat from 463
B.C. to 72 B.C. They kept that data–nearly
400 years worth–on clay tablets. So the
approach is not new.
• In 1992, 1994 and 2008, a magazine by the
name of Wall Street Forecaster was named
as one of the top forecasters on Wall Street
It was also rated the second best performing
forecaster in 2002.
• As of 2001 the Astro fund trading company,
which handled $3.5-5 million worth of
investor assets, claimed 10-15% of fund
managers were using their service. The
majority of the market demand for this
service has come from the US and Japan
respectively.
• In 2000, Bloomberg News was host to
a weekly show dedicated to financial
astrology. The 2000 financial crash led to a
surge in companies and investment bankers
using the services of financial astrologers
• John Pierpont Morgan, had a personal
astrologer on staff, and he was attributed as
saying "Millionaires don't use astrologers,
but billionaires do.
• In 2000, the chief technical analyst for HSBC
was quoted as saying; "most astrology stuff
doesn't check out, but some of it does".
• Similarly, in 1997, the treasurer for The
European Bank for Reconstruction and
Development admitted that they used
the practice in their financial planning
and described the correlation between
astrological events and financial events is
uncanny.
• The practice was used by Goldman Sachs
in a paper released in 1999, focussing
specifically on the correlation between
eclipses and the state of the financial
market at that time. Though floated as an
idea by the company at the time, analysis
showed that random data produced similar
results.
• A 2007 study by The British Association for the Advancement of Science conducted an
experiment wherein a financial astrology,
professional investor, and five-year-old
child, were asked to invest £5,000 on the
FTSE100. The child earned the most money,
with the financial astrologer taking the
heaviest losses.
• Starich charges $237 annually for her
newsletter, which 300 traders subscribe to
for news of what will happen to the stock
prices of companies, or even bigger, to the
Federal Reserve. She sees dark times ahead
in the Fed's horoscope. Traders want to
know what the future is ? "They now have
Saturn squared to Neptune, which is really
bankruptcy, Neptune represents money.
But when Saturn shows up in a chart, it
indicates restriction. So for the Fed, that
means the "fiscal cliff is here, and there’s
no place to go except to print more money
or unravel these financial institutions."
• Arch Crawford, a financial astrologer who
actually got his start on Wall Street as a
stock analyst at Merrill Lynch, warns his
2,000 subscribers particularly against the
dangers of Mercury in retrograde, a time
when the planet appears to be going in
reverse across the sky. The phenomenon,
which happens three times or more a year,
indicates a month when communications
will be screwed up. He warns his subscribers
never to start anything new during that
time. He also notes that most major market
glitches have happened while Mercury was
retrograde.
According to the Financial Times, financial
astrology is “growing in popularity and
complexity”.
So why do business people, who are supposed
to be calculatingly rational succumb to these
beliefs?
BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT BELIEFS..That’s the
shortest answer.
Why are these City traders, entrepreneurs
and private investors resorting to the stars for
assistance?
People look for patterns and are very good
at seeing them, even when they aren’t there.
They also pick up on what seem to be causeand-effect
relationships that aren’t really
there.”More mysterious still is the apparently
indisputable logic of why traders keep coming
back to services such as Crawford’s. What
they’re looking for is a RECORD OF ACCURACY.
It’s no coincidence. The very complexity of the
movements in the heavens makes it likely that
patterns will be detected & that the same can
be true for those who study stocks. The financial
markets are a parallel to astrology. They’re
chaotic. There are so many variables, how do
you predict what’s going to happen tomorrow,
let alone not only the financial masters of the
universe who peer into its starry depths for a
hit of good fortune.
