Retrograde Mercury

Issue No. 032 (Saturday 17 November 2018)

We forecast a nose-diving stock market for the past 2 weeks. In fact stocks fall moderately.

There are several bearish features in the next 10 days. However, there is a single feature that can arrest the stock market’s decline -- it is Mercury moving backwards (as observed from the Earth). The backward motion of Mercury (moving from Left to Right as illustrated below) is a visual illusion, but it is significantly bullish on stocks.

Accordingly, stocks in the next 10 days will be erratic.

But I expect a rally from end Nov 2018 for about 3 weeks. The positive features which fuel the expected rally are described on the following 2 geocentric Ephemeris.

Bullish aspects as depicted on the Mars-centered Ephemeris are

03 Dec 2018 [Mars Square Sun].  Square = 90⁰.

07 Dec 2018 [N Node Sesquare Mars].  Sesquare = 135⁰.

                        [Uranus Square Mars]

08 Dec 2018 [Neptune Conjunction Mars].  Conjunction =0⁰.

Bullish aspects as depicted on the Neptune-centered Ephemeris are

30 Nov 2018 [Neptune Sesquare Venus].

06 Dec 2018 [Neptune Square Sun]

07 Dec 2018 [Neptune Conjunction Mars]

Aspects described on the Neptune Ephemeris create Melody (sweet music).  Neptune is the Musician, and Venus is the Dancer. The sounds of their interactions are melodious.  Mars is a positive planet, and an active Mars erases any negative force. In addition, Sun joins to stimulate these aspects.

Thereafter, the Great Depression will resume, from end Dec 2018.

Rebound is validated

Issue No. 031 (Saturday 03 November 2018)

Our forecast of Issue No. 031 (1 week ago) says:-

“Stocks’ slide will continue into Nov 2018, though there may be a rebound in end Oct-early Nov 2018”.

Stocks’ rebound from Tuesday (30 Oct) to Friday (02 Nov 2018) is sharp, and its magnitude (in Asian markets) is spectacular. The “good” news is a tweet (on Thu 01 Nov 2018) that President Trump has a long and very good conversation with Xi of China - their talk has a heavy emphasis on trade.  Stock traders cheer the news like final cease fire on trade conflicts. I don’t interpret news, but the rally is clearly revealed by planetary patterns conducive to market sentiments.

Positive feature on Saturn-centered Ephemeris

[A]   Exact on Mon 29 Oct 2018 [Mars Semi-square Saturn].

        Both Mars and Saturn are bullish planets of the Solar System.

        When they are stimulated, stocks rise.

Positive feature on Pluto-centered Ephemeris

[B]   Exact on Sat 03 Nov 2018 [Pluto Semi-square Mercury].

        Pluto is also a bullish planet. Pluto is made active by Mercury.

Together with [A], all 3 positive planets of the Solar System (Mars, Saturn and Pluto) join hands to push up stocks.

Positive feature on Neptune-centered Ephemeris

[C]   Exact on Sat 03 Nov 2018 [Neptune Sesquare Venus (Retrograde)].

        This aspect is supported by Uranus 45⁰ (a hard angle) in front of Neptune.

        Neptune is the Musician.

        Venus is a Dancer.

        Mercury of [B] is a Singer.

        Therefore, a Melody Formation is present to help create the stock market rally.

These bullish aspects converge in end Oct-early Nov 2018. Upon stimulation by Moon transits, stocks jump.

But there are BIG BEARS lurking in the background (as explained in the post 1 week ago). We re-produce the Table below.

Be prepared for a nose-diving stock market in the coming 2 weeks.

November is bearish also

Issue No. 030 (Saturday 27 October 2018)

As expected, DJIA continues to fall precipitously in the past 2 weeks.

Stocks’ slide will continue into Nov 2018, though there may be a rebound in end Oct-early Nov 2018.

I am significantly bearish for the first half of Nov 2018 (except for possible rebound in early Nov). The reasons for my bearish views are disclosed in the Jupiter-centered Ephemeris.

Bearish aspects are marked on the Ephemeris. These aspects are again presented in Tabular form below.

One more negative feature is revealed on Solar Chart 2018-11-07 (Wednesday, day of New Moon).

But there will be a rally from end Nov 2018.  Stay tuned.
