(17 Might 2023)  The New York Inventory Change celebrated a
birthday at the moment because the world’s largest securities market is now 231 years
outdated.  The NYSE was based because the Solar transited the 6th diploma of
sidereal Taurus, maybe not coincidentally, the signal of the bull.  Due
to the precession of the equinoxes,
the Solar didn’t truly transit that diploma at the moment however will as an alternative mark
its precise photo voltaic return to six Taurus on Might 21.  The ensuing photo voltaic
return chart is claimed to offer an outline of a few of the central
themes that can form the fortunes of the NYSE for the approaching yr.

The chart seems to be potent with various shut alignments in play.  As
a rule, photo voltaic return charts ought to be interpreted each on their very own and
in relation to the natal chart. Alignments involving benefic planets
have a tendency to point progress and improve the probability of optimistic returns
whereas a preponderance of malefic facets could undermine sentiment and
thus improve the chance of declines.

There are a number of doubtlessly adverse alignments right here.  First, the
Mars-Pluto opposition throughout the 1-7 axis is a really tough
placement.  Even when we throw out the affect of the conjunction with the
Ascendant since there may be some uncertainty concerning the 8.52 a.m beginning time,
the closeness of the Mars-Pluto opposition is clearly bearish,
particularly since Mars is in Most cancers, its signal of debilitation.  Whereas it
could not, by itself, be enough to translate right into a down yr for
shares, it does recommend some vital volatility is probably going over the
subsequent 12 months.

However the truth that this bearish opposition additionally varieties a tense sq.
alignment with an in depth Jupiter-Rahu conjunction is one other crimson flag.
Jupiter-Rahu conjunctions are typically bearish on their very own as Rahu’s
disruptive affect works to undermines Jupiter’s assured optimism. 
In a person’s chart, this may typically manifest as a compulsive
materialism and acquisitiveness as one may discover with an over-confident
particular person.  And certainly by way of the inventory market, it may be briefly
bullish.  However extra usually, the Jupiter-Rahu conjunction is related
with intervals of financial instability and inventory market declines.

Curiously, the Jupiter-Rahu conjunction varieties a reasonably shut
sq. to the Mars-Pluto opposition.  That’s one other potential warning
signal, though it might merely symbolize an intensification of vitality. 
Taking a extra sanguine view of this alignment, it might symbolize main
developments within the inventory market that retains it within the public eye over
the following yr.  This might due to this fact come from strikes up or down — or
each.

The opposite side of word right here is that of Mercury-Saturn.  Saturn
casts its full-strength third home/60 diploma side to Mercury, only one
diploma from precise.  Saturn is normally a bearish affect upon Mercury,
even when Mercury is separating from Saturn right here.  In order that’s one other
doubtless bearish affect within the chart.

The opposite layer of interpretation issues how the return chart
overlays the natal chart.  The Mars-Pluto-Jupiter-Rahu alignment
highlights the Saturn-Neptune opposition within the natal chart. That is
additionally not a plus for the reason that Saturn-Neptune opposition is a really adverse
affect.  Since Mars and Pluto are additionally adverse, there may be an elevated
danger for a major correction within the coming yr with this sample.

If there’s a silver lining right here, it’s that neither the Solar nor the
Moon are bothered in both the natal or the photo voltaic return chart. Since
the Solar and Moon are an important factors within the chart — after the
Ascendant, that’s — the absence of any robust affliction might provide
some hope that the inventory market could handle to keep away from the worst.

However the backside line right here is that the photo voltaic return chart seems to be very
difficult.  Whereas you will need to keep in mind that photo voltaic return charts
wouldn’t have the ultimate say by way of predictive affect, the
negatives on this chart don’t augur nicely for the approaching yr.
