ASTRO-FINANCE FOR AUGUST 2023
By Barry Rosen
We enter the month of August with optimism and pessimism. The Mars/Jupiter trine peaked on August 1 is commonly a key turning level and tends to help hypothesis and threat/taking and sometimes marks key highs for a lot of markets. The Mercury/Saturn opposition tends to create a unfavourable mindset. So is the glass half-full or half-empty? In the present day, Fitch downgraded US Treasury bonds and that has sparked a sell-off.
At publication, we see the inventory market in want of correction. It could solely be a couple of weeks with a low due into August 9th and the Venus sq. to Uranus which is commonly unfavourable after which one other low into the week of August 21st with the Solar and Neptune in a quincunx to Neptune and Pluto.
Jupiter goes retrograde on Sept 4th however there’s an optimism cycle with Jupiter trining the Solar into Sept. 8th which ought to maintain the market up till then. Seasonally, September is the weakest month of the 12 months after March and we now have one other FOMC announcement on Sept. 20th. Given the power inflation we’re seeing, we do assume they are going to increase charges once more at that assembly but when crude oil is up at 91.50 by then and gasoline costs are again up, inflation goes to poke out its ugly head once more.
We’re open to the NQ 100 futures getting as much as 17000 earlier than it’s accomplished however then we’re in additional bother.
Venus went retrograde in early Leo and can cross again into the Gandanta (Most cancers 27-30) round August 7-8th which is an emotional knot and Venus has loads to do with banking (Taurus/2nd signal) and cash and all of the loopy maneuvers that the banks have accomplished to maintain the system functioning might rear their heads this fall. We additionally had Venus retrograde in Leo/Most cancers Gandanta in 2007 earlier than the banking disaster.
STOCK MARKET:
Now we have famous in earlier points that the Jupiter/Uranus connection in late Aries will maintain AI and tech up into early September. The Jupiter/Rahu conjunction continues to push the tech bubble and AI craze to the moon. We don’t see it ending till early September with Jupiter approaching Uranus towards the top of Aries. The media is asking for a brand new bull market however the 20% determine has at all times been fairly arbitrary.
We’re skeptical that the S & P money will take out 4650-4688 by the highest with a small probability of 4800. If the 4650 area continues to be tough to take out by early September, it does open up a a lot bigger fall into the 4th quarter.
With Jupiter’s proximity to Uranus peaking with the Jupiter station into Sept 4th, there might be some sort of excessive on the 12 months for shares into that window. We’re beginning to assume that NQ 100 might rise up to 16500-17000 with the AI craze and pull Tesla as much as 330-350 by September. Nonetheless, Tesla might have an enormous correction if we do get an enormous fall within the inventory market.
This darling inventory continues to be in dreamland as sellers have too many unsold Teslas on the lot even after a 35% worth drop. ELON is forcing its rivals to lose cash additionally. Sure, they’re fantastic however nobody realizes it nonetheless takes coal and pure fuel to run the generators that energy the grid that fees your EVs. The phantasm that EVs will save the world and international warming is one other rip-off. The identical is true of Photo voltaic Panels. 60-70% of the components for photo voltaic panels come from China and they’re utilizing tons of coal and creating extra air pollution and extra emissions than anybody on the earth they don’t seem to be more likely to curb emissions simply because John Kerry visited them. After all, we now have to like alternate power however it’s an phantasm that we will transition away from coal and oil in a short time.
With Jupiter going retrograde from Sept. 4th into the top of the 12 months, we are going to get recessionary motion taking place. We don’t anticipate the FOMC to ease charges till subsequent 12 months. Now we have been searching for a tough time for US shares in September/October/November. That is additionally coinciding with the 12-year cycle of Jupiter in Aries when in Sept. 2011, shares made a excessive after which fell into Might 2012.
The issue for the autumn is Jupiter might be opposing the debilitated Solar and Mars in Libra with Mercury within the fall of 2023 and that’s just like the oppositions we had between the bearish indicators of Aries and Libra, two air indicators, which brought on extra fast inventory market declines. In Oct. 1987, we had one thing very related and therefore there’s extra crash power within the fall of this 12 months. The continued greater charges in addition to oil inflation will harm the market.
We additionally can’t look again to 1974 and the autumn of Nixon and the impression on the notion of the US and the autumn of the US economic system into 1974. Will the Biden scandal and different political rigidity take our heads out of the clouds dreaming of not working and using our electrical automobiles?
The context for a significant monetary disaster continues to be there this fall as the home of playing cards of world debt, infinite warfare expenditures should not going to return to a reasonably and neat finish. Nonetheless, the powers that be handle to do what they’ll to remain in energy for the sake of the remainder of us.
BIDEN/TRUMP:
The Biden scandal continues to develop wings. The Delaware choose threw out Hunter’s plea discount because the attorneys snuck in immunity for different crimes together with his failure to register as a Overseas Agent. We did have a look at Hunter’s Chart and he’s in a Rahu/Saturn interval with Saturn in Aries within the 11th and Rahu within the 9th and it’s a excessive nervousness interval for him till 2025.
In the meantime, President Biden’s chart continues to undergo from Rahu transiting over his natal moon within the 6th home at 7.56 Aries. Will it take till the following Lunar eclipse on Oct. 28th at 12 Aries close to his natal moon to knock him out of the ring whereas the Solar transits his 12th home within the signal of debilitation? The media is even beginning to activate him and sees the writing on the wall and Kamala Harris has the bottom recognition of a VP in years. Her Moon is at 4 Aries and also will get hit by Rahu this fall and can undergo from the eclipses. Her Mercury mahadasha (Adhana Vimshottari Dasha) is related to Rahu and Swati within the 5th and he or she might nicely rise to change into the following President prior to anticipated.
Giving equal time to President Trump, you get the sense that the powers that be is not going to let him run—it doesn’t matter what they must do. The brand new fees for Jan. 6th are one other instance of no matter it takes. He goes right into a Jupiter/Ketu mahadasha from Oct 17, 2023, till Sept 2024 and Ketu has a approach of irritating materials ambitions and creating setbacks and doesn’t do nicely within the 4th home in his natal chart.
We predict that the candidates for 2024 haven’t but emerged.
FALL PREVIEW: NODES ON THE EDGE
The nodes are going to get bizarre as we transfer into September. Within the True Node system, they’re at 1 diploma to 29 levels Sept 15-Dec. 13th. They are going to be transferring via the Aries/Pisces Gandanta space Pisces 27-Aries 3. The final time we had the nodes in that Gandanta was Feb./March of 2005.
Throughout that interval, three main occasions on the earth ought to be impacted by the Rahu return. In March 2005, China ratified an anti-secession legislation, aimed toward stopping Taiwan from declaring independence. On Feb. 10, 2005, North Korea broadcasts that it possesses nuclear weapons as a safety towards the hostility it says it perceives from america. Will the Chinese language/Taiwan battle come to a head.? North Korea retains getting nearer to China and Russia as they unite towards the West. Let’s hope that it doesn’t get too tense. Any of those occasions might upset the worldwide markets.
When the nodes are on the sting, they’ll peer into an alternate universe. Psychology will get eerie and bizarre and distorted. Rahu when stricken by being sandhi or on the sting may be extra anxious or paranoid, feels constrained by forces past his management, victimized by overpowering forces, might have extra nightmares or tough goals, or be a bit manic-depressive. When you’ve got your Solar or Moon 29-1 diploma of the water indicators/air signal juncture in your natal chart or if you’re Aquarius rising which is co-ruled by Rahu or if you’re in a Rahu interval or a Dasha interval the place Rahu is the nakshatra lord. It might additionally result in vacancy main towards addictive patterns, frustration, sorrow, dejection, psychological depth, and psychological anguish.
Ketu on the sting 1.30 diploma Scorpio to twenty-eight.30 can have a robust need to vary instructions in life, desires to surrender materials attachment, feels disillusioned, has tough emotional knots to unravel, feels unsettled and his emotional distortions might have a tendency towards self-isolation. might really feel caught prior to now with regrets. This one might begin to be felt by Sept. 1st and final into late December.
GOLD
Gold is due for one more setback into the center of August however the Solar going into Leo on August 16th usually saves it and cycles look higher total into late October and November for Gold and into subsequent 12 months.
Bigger cycle highs for gold are due in Sept. as it’s gold just like the Solar in Leo and Jupiter might be trining it and we now have one other cycle excessive in early November with Venus trining Pluto into Nov. 6th as I discover Venus/Pluto features are sometimes related to gold highs. Gold is due for a setback for a couple of weeks however will lastly be a key buy-in mid-August and it may be performed with ETFs like GLD and GDX (Gold Miners) and we cowl them in our e-newsletter.
Now we have seen banks trash gold by promoting futures for years and should not positive they are going to cease. It isn’t out of the query because the banks proceed to control. We do assume gold could have its day from the autumn of 2023 into the spring of 2024.
Now we have a gold cycle greater into 2024 for now. Gold might speed up in a disaster to 2245 after which 2450 into the 12 months 2024. Keep on high of our each day forecasts with Fortucast.com newsletters.
CRYPTOS: Bitcoin has a robust Mercury part and the Mercury/ Saturn opposition in Leo just isn’t going to assist it till it will get into Virgo after Oct 1st. Nonetheless, it ought to reply to an financial disaster within the US though the SEC continues to need to destroy Cryptos.
By way of the larger image, Bitcoin lastly gave a technical breakout in June and initiatives at the very least 35000 short-term and will get again to 50000-54000 into subsequent 12 months. The autumn monetary disaster will assist. Jupiter is trining the natal Jupiter within the natal chart (10/31/2008 11:10 am, Van Nuys, CA) at 22 Sagittarius) into Jupiter station in early September at 21 levels. We do see a purpose to be in Bitcoin once more in mid-August.
We predict lengthy timer they are going to be susceptible nonetheless because the SEC tries to manage cryptos out of existence as indicated by the SEC filings towards COIN and different gamers. Nonetheless, Bitcoin is in a Jupiter/Rahu interval from August 2023 into 2026 utilizing the right dasha of (Adhana Vimshottari Dasha) and it’s more likely to climate the storm for a bit.
Keep in mind to work together with your dealer. Buying and selling and investing must be accomplished each technically and astrology can assist however shouldn’t be the one think about making a call. It’s a must to purchase low and promote excessive.
