Review and Preview
Financial Astrology is on track to coincide with another remarkable turning point in the stock indices of the world. As the 19-month cycle of Venus retrograde takes effect on Friday, March 6, several of the world’s leading indices are falling to multi-year lows. As stated last week, “In other words, the possibility of a sharp decline in stock indices is very high this week. Like the terrorist alert system, let’s say stock markets are now on red alert.” In fact, many indices are now down the expected 50-90% off their all-time highs, representing the largest percentage decline since the Great Depression of the 1930’s.
And yet so many financial experts continue to argue that this market—this economic downturn—is nothing like the 1930’s. Why was this crisis expected via the study of Financial Astrology: because for the first time since 1929-1934, Saturn, Uranus, and Pluto are entering into a T-square formation. This rare, celestial pattern will take place in the early degrees of Cardinal signs (Aries, Libra and Capricorn), and hence it is referred to as the “Cardinal Climax.” This pattern officially began in 2008 when Pluto entered Capricorn, and Saturn-Uranus entered into their opposition to one another. The current economic crisis and financial market “panic” arguably commenced in 2008 as well, under the Full Moon of September 15. We will be visiting that sector of the sky with another Full Moon again this week, on March 10 (see Short-Term Geocosmics).
In Europe, the Netherlands AEX fell to 198.22 on Friday, March 6, its lowest level since July 1995. It is now down 71.8% from its all-time high of 703 in September 2000.
