Bearish month ahead

 Issue No. 186 – Sat 27 July 2024

Gold is expected to fall for 4 weeks from here.

Let’s study a sharply bearish feature.

 

On the Table of geocentric planets’ positions for Aug 2024, Neptune occupies at about 29.1/2⁰ of Pisces, i.e. the Ecliptic is 1/2⁰ in front of Neptune.

Since they are close together, (Ecliptic.Neptune) can be regarded as an extraordinary MASS.

On the geocentric Jupiter-centered Ephemeris below, the Ecliptic is represented by a heavy green line just in front of Neptune.

In August month 2024, since the MASS is situated at 75⁰ behind Jupiter, and bearish Jupiter Fore Trojans (Jup FT) are 60⁰ in front of Jupiter, they are 135⁰ (a “Sesquare”) apart, i.e. they form a sharply bearish aspect in August:
    [Jup FT Sesquare MASS], where MASS = (Ecliptic.Neptune).

One more bearish aspect

As marked on the Ephemeris is the bearish mid Aug aspect: 
    14 Aug 2024 [Jupiter Conjunction Mars].

Mars is a bullish planet. Its bullish influence is suppressed by super Giant Jupiter during Conjunction. Loss of Mars bullish influence is detrimental to the Gold market.

Bearish periods

The bearish [Jup AT Sesquare MASS] is aroused when the Sun transits over Jupiter soft angles. That means the following Sun transits are bearish:

  07 Aug 2024 Sun transits 60⁰ in front of Jupiter, i.e. [Jup FT Conjunction Sun].
  24 Aug 2024 Sun transits 75⁰ in front of Jupiter, i.e. [Sun Sesquare Jup AT].

Moon transits to interact with Sun (close to above 2 dates), and Moon transits in mid Aug) to interact with Jupiter, can arouse heavy bearish influence. Gold falls significantly.

The bearish market will terminate from end Aug 2024 when Mars is made active again. This we’ll discuss in the next post.

Saturn Semi-square Pluto is War prone

 Issue No. 185 – Sat 13 July 2024

We have been bullish on Precious metals (Gold & Silver) for the past month, and our bullish view continues.

 

The geocentric Pluto-centered Ephemeris explains the bullish scenario:

Pluto is Death. Saturn is Devil. The War prone bullish aspect is [Saturn Semi-square Pluto] which covers the period from May 2024 through Sep 2024.

On the Pluto-centered Ephemeris above, Pluto is made active by several Opposition aspects occurring in succession:

  03 July 2024 [Pluto Opposition Mercury]
  12 July 2024 [Pluto Opposition Venus]
  23 July 2024 [Pluto Opposition Sun].

The long-term aspect [Saturn Semi-square Pluto] is aroused in July month and Gold should rise.

To make the situation more bullish, 2 Melody aspects join the interactions on the Neptune-centered Ephemeris:

The positive Melody aspects are:

  12 July 2024 [Mercury Sesquare Neptune]
  23 July 2024 [Venus Sesquare Neptune].

Neptune is the Musician. Mercury is Singer, and Venus is Dancer. Together they create a buoyant Gold market.

Accordingly, we expect Gold to continue to shine in the following 2 weeks.

However, there will be a significant downward adjustment from Fri 26 July 2024 for about 3 weeks.

We’ll explain the bearish situation in the next post.
