The bomb was dropped when this conjunction was exact on October 19 resulting in a 508 point one-day crash. In addition, Venus (NYSE ruler) entered the Bear sign Scorpio (opposite Tarus the Bull) and formed a powerful conjunction (0 degrees) with the destructive planet Pluto (Plutonium). Is it any wonder that the market came down to Earth? Mars then formed the negative Square (90 degree) aspect with Neptune (confusion, illusion) and was exact on October 16.Īt the same time that the Solar Eclipse was activated by Mars, a Lunar Eclipse occurred in the 13th degree of Libra (scales, balance). This was a textbook astrological event (read Encyclopedia of Astrology of by Devore, 1947, on Mars passing over an Eclipse Degree). It was here that the market started its record breaking 13 day drop. On October sixth, Mars (action) passed over this Solar Eclipse Degree (29 Virgo) activating this negative Earth sign Eclipse. On September 22 a Solar Eclipse occurred in the Earth sign Virgo a portent of future market direction when activated.
Students of price activity should note that in the last 20 years there have been no major market advances during the three and one-half month Jupiter retrograde cycle. At the same time, Saturn turned direct motion (which increased its negative influence). This condition which decreases Jupiter’s positive influence lasted until December. On August 19, Jupiter turned retrograde motion ( a condition where the planets appear to be moving backwards as viewed from earth). Saturn governs time and depression, while Jupiter governs expansion. The planets Jupiter and Saturn are cosmic opposites in astrological interpretation. Read Astro-Cycles and Speculative Markets Book This powerful congregation of planetary influences also formed positive grand trine aspects (120 degree angles) with the outer planets, which culminated at the August 24 New Moon which was the top of the market. The widely advertised Harmonic Convergence last August involved several planets in conjunction (same longitude) in the constellation Leo (fire sign which governs the fifth house of speculation in the horoscope). His discovery gave him the knowledge to forecast future radio disturbances and also proved the physical effect of unseen cosmic influences based upon the angles (aspects) of the planets (Luke 21:25). Nelson was an RCA scientist who discovered a direct correlation between the angular relationship of the planets and Sun Spots which affected short wave radio transmissions. To get some background on the influence of cosmic influences, you can read Cosmic Patterns by J. Obviously, such a study requires years to master and cannot be picked up by the dabbler. For example, in this book Gann advises reading the Bible three times to learn about cycles and how the Creator reveals nature’s universal laws. These sciences contain the keys to accurate market timing. Such sciences include numerology (the universal language of numbers), astronomical cycles, astrological interpretations, time cycles, Biblical symbology, and sacred geometry.
The esotericism of Gann’s forecasting is well known, but lesser known is the ancient body of esoteric sciences upon which Gann drew. Such a book is Tunnel Thru The Air, in which Gann reveals some of the methods which he employed for his success. Some of these principles can be found in some of Gann’s fictional writings, which on the surface do not appear to have much to do with the market. These methods were never revealed in any systematic way, and many of the principles which Gann used in his forecasting system are awaiting your discovery. In the present context, the word “esoteric” means, “understood by only a chosen few” (Webster). Gann used many esoteric techniques to predict future market direction and price targets with amazing accuracy.
