Fiscal Cents - Financial Astrology for Your Zodiac Sign

Financial Astrology for Your Zodiac Sign For the Lunar Month Beginning February 2, 2011- Your Astrological Horoscope and Financial Outlook by Kaye Shinker
The New Moon is in Aquarius. The Sun will enter the sign of Pisces on February 18, at 7:25 pm EST.
Happy Solar Return to late Aquarian Suns and early Pisces Suns! 

Happy Solar Return to all of our Aquarius friends, born between February 2 and 17, who have conquered their personal communications equipment and renewed contact with friends and some relatives. The year ahead promises to be filled with good cheer, lots of laughter, fun and excitement. Late Aquarians are making decisions concerning risk and risk management with their own funds. They must be careful and ask lots of questions. 

And Happy Solar Return to our Pisces friends, born February 18 through March 3, who have found interesting work, new interests, and a less demanding environment. The year ahead is full of good feelings and a lot less pressure. Early Pisces are also concerned with risk management, and must be especially careful with the details involved in each risky investment. Pisces should avoid investing risking more than 5% of their assets.

Both signs will enjoy the months ahead with time to play, exercise, attend concerts and relax.

This Month For Aquarius

Now is the time to review your portfolio, and evaluate new ways to invest your cash. Do the math and determine exactly the percentage of cash you are willing to risk on new investments. Continue to research and maybe add something new to your portfolio before the end of the month. It is important to take some time to play and relax.

This Month For Pisces

Continue writing in your strategy notebook and start adding new IPO’s with promising new products. You have a two (three, wrong ) month window with only Chiron in your Sun sign therefore enhancing your ability to think out of the box and determine a strategy for your investments in the years ahead.

Advice for everyone - During the next five months I encourage every Sun Sign to take control of your personal environment and reclaim your power. February 10th and 11th are good days to open a savings account to deposit the extra funds you earn this month.

Household Hint : Thrifty is the new status symbol! This will be a good year to start a business.

More for all other signs: Each Sun Sign has predictions of the challenges and successes for you during the month ahead in our Fiscal Cents column on the web site.

We suggest that you also read your Ascendant (your Rising sign), as well as your Sun sign on our web site - to read your sun sign's forecast on our web site go to: www.astrologicalinvesting.com/html/Fiscalcents.html.

The New Moon in Aquarius 2011

Read this New Moon report in it's entirety at www.astrologicalinvesting.com/html/newsletter.html
New Moon forecasts show the general trends and financial outlook for the month; here is what Kaye Shinker has to say for the month ahead:

The Aquarius New Moon,  appears in the 5th house (refer to chart) The first four months of 2011 will focus on Money.

 A Financial Astrologer looks first at the money houses in the chart for the New Moon. The Capricorn New Moon, January 4th, fell in the second house putting an emphasis on how you earn money one hour at a time. The Aquarius New Moon appears in the fifth house, therefore the emphasis will be on taking risks with money. The Pisces New Moon, March 4 , will be in the eighth house and the focus of attention will be insurance and taxes. The Aries New Moon will appear in the eleventh and discuss earnings from career, dividends, and interest on investments.

The New Moon appears in the 5th House(people who are not living in the USA please set the New Moon chart for the capital of your country and note the house position of the New Moon - Textbook 4, page 30 will help you interpret the new moon for your own country)

This New Moon is meant for traders at every level.  The fifth house rules fun, laughter, and giggles.  It tells us about creative self-expression, children, romance and love affairs.  In Financial Astrology it is about gambling, speculation and the commodities markets.  The New Moon means it is time for a fresh new start, a new beginning, a new attitude.  In Aquarius it means technological fun.  It is a Moon that encourages you to take a risk and try new ideas. In the brilliant sign of Aquarius everyone feels they are extremely intelligent and able to out maneuver their rivals. Sports and exercise are the emphasis and highlighting fun at resorts and sporting events. Theaters, education, and the birth-rate will be the focus of attention in the market place.

Mars appears in the 5th House
In a conjunction with the New Moon this Mars in Aquarius gives a tremendous amount of energy to those things mentioned above. Traders will focus on quick gains and nee to cover their risks especially if they are trading options. The first few days after the New Moon will give investors an opportunity to buy new equities that have a promising future. It is a time for high energy and an excellent time to start new projects and new businesses.

Neptune appears in the 5th House
Scandals, shocking unethical behavior and whistle blowers will dominate the headlines. Gambling and sports betting will be exposed where it is illegal and bring higher revenues to areas where it is legal. Vacation areas known for their casinos will prosper. Commodities exchanges will experience a higher numbers of trades.

Kaye's predictions for the month and the full interpretations for all the planets in this New Moon chart can be read in  this month's New Moon report.  Read the report in it's entirety at www.astrologicalinvesting.com/html/newsletter.html

Surfing Our Web Site

Features on the Web Site

Before Winter and Summer Solstice and the Spring and Fall Equinox I write an article that will be a general overview for the next three months of the economy. Often the events I forecast occur before the event is detailed in the news. You will read about an event several weeks later. For example: The Fall equinox 2010 below, Corporate and government managers left their jobs in droves however they did not formally leave until the beginning of the New Year.

Entries from Sept 20, 2010

Moon in the 10th House
Women in high office will suffer the wrath of the public. Many will lose their elections and many will lose their corporate offices. The public insists on a clean house and they will achieve it either in court, at the ballot box, or in the board room.

Jupiter in the 10th House
Men will also suffer from the public outrage. Corporate officers will be dismissed quickly and their golden parachutes may be less golden than in previous years. Financial reporters will have a difficult task keeping track of the changes and pundits will not be able to type fast enough. In a number of cases retirements will occur first. Changes in management is often difficult for the price of an individual stock.

Uranus in the 10th House
At least all of the changes in government and corporate leadership will be sudden and interesting. If you check the lessons in the you should be able to anticipate these changes. Jupiter and Uranus are conjunct and ready to start reorganizing the corporate board rooms and government.

New Moon Forecast

Members receive these about a week before the New Moon. Since statistically the New Moon says it is a time to buy stocks I try to forecast the trends for the month ahead.

Uranus appears in the 6th House

“Buyer strikes” will organize quickly and as a result become extremely effective.

Signs not Constellations

Nothing has changed.

You can change the name of the street but the house hasn't moved. In fact nothing has changed about an individual horoscope or the indication of the skills on an individual investor according to the placement of the planets on their date of birth. Changing the name of a constellation or adding another changes nothing but the street map. ( I used to be a printer and we loved it when the city changed the names of streets. Our company was inundated with all sorts of new orders to replace maps, business cards, stationary)

In fact sometimes I wish the astronomers would rename all of the constellations. Horse is much easier to spell than Sagittarius. However I'm afraid that astrologers would stick to their 2000 year old tradition and I will continue to misspell Sagittarius.

Financial Astrology is based on the position of planets. We just want to know the exact distance between planets and the sign of the zodiac where they may be found. Our study is based on a Zodiac of Signs.

Astrological investing is based on the position of the planets at each moment in time. Our study is based on a Zodiac of signs, not a zodiac of constellations. We use the signs as a handy reference map to decipher the location of planets. We need to know the measurement of degrees between each planet from the point of view of our position on earth. For example: Right now, Jupiter and Uranus are conjunct in the 'Sign' Pisces. However, if you wish to find Jupiter and Uranus with your telescope then you will need a current map of the constellations. For financial astrologers the Zodiac signs are like a street map. We use the map to tell us the distance (measured in degrees) between the planets.

Its All in the Aspects
In Financial Astrology we use today's planetary positions to help us determine how the market indexes will move. Jupiter and Uranus have been very close to each other since June. Each time they have been together during the past 100 years the Dow index has gradually moved up.
We have discovered many other useful aphorisms. For example when Jupiter moves through the area of the sky we call Pisces; the price of fuel increases. We have also discovered that companies who have incorporated between February 20 and March 20 usually earn higher profits when Jupiter moves through that portion of the sky named for the sign Pisces.

Accuracy Counts
Financial Astrology relies on the accurate measurement of the degrees between planets. Experience has shown that certain relationships between planets may have a positive or negative effect on the Dow or other indexes. Experience has also shown that the current position of a planet will also effect the price of an individual stock and even the health of a company.
Available on our website you may purchase my Textbook for Financial Astrology. The book explains exactly how we work with planets and signs.

Barrel of Oil $100+ ?

Gasoline: $5 a gallon

A favored headline scare tactic of financial news reporters. The article reads that if the price of a barrel of oil continues to increase at the current rate, in only a few weeks the price at the pump will be 5 bucks. Surely the current price trend will continue with speculators adding a dollar or two per day to the price of a barrel on the NY Comex spot market. They continue that if the rate of price increase continues, it means you will pay $3 then $4 then $5 per gallon. And of course this could spark a double dip recession, higher unemployment, and thin new car sales.

Their story is true

Every current driver remembers every detail of the story. They experienced the problem in July 2008 with $145 per barrel the high for oil on the spot market. They remember how to consolidate shopping trips, minimized vacation miles, car pool and refused the temptation of mini-mart snacks. In October 2008 a surplus of supply sent the price down to $77 per barrel, but in the mean time speculation on the oil markets and mortgage market initiated a great recession.

The question then becomes, will it happen again? Will price move in a straight line up to $145. Will OPEC quickly add to the supply of oil and prevent another skyrocketing increase at the pump? We do know for sure that OPEC does not favor selling fewer barrels of oil.

I thought I would take a look at the chart for the date OPEC's first official meeting, Sept. 14,1960 9:00 am GMT in Bagdad.

In July 2008 OPEC had T. Uranus opposed its Sun and Saturn conjunct its Pluto but in October T. Jupiter made a square to Venus then a trine to its Sun. Jupiter sees to increase the supply of oil. These aspects will not repeat.

The January 4, 2011 eclipse falls on OPEC's second house Saturn. It means they will negotiate every deal and allow the buyer only a minimum profit. They will systematically account for all of their assets and try to be thrifty with the distribution of oil. An eclipse is in effect for at least 6 months and during this time T. Saturn will make a conjunction twice to OPEC's Venus. On Nov. 27 during Saturn's 1st conjunction to Venus prices moved from $83-$87. Then Jupiter took over with a square to itself and prices moved from $87-$91. This will happen again March 30 and Aug 22.

Conclusion

It seems Saturn slows the pace of increased prices for OPEC. Jupiter increases supplies of oil suggesting that the price per gallon will move up slowly during the next six months. Ingenuity is required if we are to avoid spending extra income on transportation.

Consider these next few months an opportunity to reorganize how you spend your travel time and hopefully natural gas or electricity will become your fuel of choice. T. Pluto opposed OPEC's Moon (Jan. 30-May 5, Dec 3- Jan 30, 2012 and May 11-Oct 25) will probably inspire everyone to make the changes required.

Your investment funds will pay dividends, therefore be sure to reinvest them wherever possible. Right now you are adding cash to your portfolio, therefore accumulate, accumulate.

The Capricorn New Moon,  Solar Eclipse appears in the 2nd house (refer to chart)

At 13° 38' Capricorn, the eclipse is in the middle of the sign of business and government. Many new business will be formed during the next six months replacing some rather old ones.

Solar Explosions

September 2009 my article predicting solar storms during 2010 appeared in Llewellyn's Sun Sign annual. My research on the appearance of difficult solar activity indicated that a gathering of difficult planetary aspects often set off solar storms that would create beautiful auroras and problems for the electrical grid. A copy of the article Sun Spot Explosions is available on our website.

Everyday of 2010 I included spaceweather.com in my morning check of weather, news and sports. Nothing unusual appeared on their site. A few sunspots appeared and disappeared. Filaments appeared and disappeared.

NO Solar Explosions

July and August 2010 presented astrologers with 13 interesting planetary phenomena. All of us looked at it from our particular point of view and made predictions. Mundane astrologers looked at the problems with the Euro, political protests in various countries, stock market activity and nothing seemed very unusual. I was convinced that this string of phenomena would be some sort of solar storm and expected to see a huge number of Sun spots appear along the equator of the Sun. I expected them to erupt and cause all sorts of havoc around our solar system. However, as Spaceweather reports they did not realize the magnitude of the eruptions until they analyzed all of the data from their various solar instruments. Finally on Dec 13, 2010 the article link above appeared in the official science media.

"On August 1, 2010, an entire hemisphere of the sun erupted. Filaments of magnetism snapped and exploded, shock waves raced across the stellar surface, billion-ton clouds of hot gas billowed into space. Astronomers knew they had witnessed something big."

Again December 7-13. 2010 I expected that the Heliocentric planetary phenomena would cause major disruptions on the solar surface. Spaceweather.com reported Coronal Mass Ejections however these particle sprays went up instead of across the planetary plane.

Space science expects the sun spot activity to increase during 2011 and 2012 peaking in 2013. A smaller grouping of planetary phenomena occurs in June and July of 2012. Therefore I'm expecting 2011 to be rather quiet on the surface of the Sun. However, experience has taught me to keep my eye on Spaceweather. Sometimes our Sun acts like Uranus.

Fiscal Cents - Financial Astrology for Your Zodiac Sign

Financial Astrology for Your Zodiac Sign For the Lunar Month Beginning December 5,  2010 - Your Astrological Horoscope and Financial Outlook by Kaye Shinker.

The New Moon is in Sagittarius. The Sun entered the sign of  Sagittarius November 21st at 5:15 am EST.

Happy Solar Return to Sagittarians born between December 5 and December 20
and Capricorns, born between December 21 and January 3rd, Happy Solar Return!

Sagittarians will be the happiest people on earth this month. They have packed their book bag full of interesting new ideas and are ready to enjoy every gathering with fantastic new creative projects. Sag’s are inviting everyone to visit their garage or spare room to check their ingenious creativity. 

Early Capricorn’s pay attention to your Sagittarius buddies. You might make a profitable investment. What ever you invest in be sure you have a majority control as well as control of the cash flow.


Both signs need to evaluate their personal library and share the books you love as well as the ones you no longer need. Late Sagittarius will happily share their ability to create fun events. They will enjoy entertaining their friends with intellectually challenging games.  Early Capricorn's are challenged to use their abundant energy to help others and give away their surplus. 

This Month For Sagittarius
Shopping will be a dangerous sport after December 10th.  Get ‘er done. Have a great a holiday party and enjoy all your friends. It would probably be a good idea to move your funds into high yield stocks before December 10.  You will be very busy throughout December and trading requires focused concentration.

This Month For Capricorn
You are in charge and your leadership skills are in demand. This could be a month when you will actually earn a bonus. Make sure you invest the funds in blue chips that pay dividends.

If you were born between December 10th and December 30th, you will have Mercury Retrograde in your Solar Return. If your birthday falls during the dates that Mercury is retrograde, expect to spend the year ahead doing everything twice. During Mercury Rx the most useful way to spend your time is to repair stuff, recyle stuff and reduce your stuff. It is also a good time to declare recess, and rejeuvenate in another region of the country. When shopping, if it costs more than $15 you shouldn't buy it; but if you do, save the receipt.

Deanna Rose discusses Mercury through the houses in your Solar Return chart in her book, Easy Predictions with Solar Returns.

On the web site you will find the article, Venus- Money in Your Chart. Be sure to read it for directions on How to Construct an Astrological Treasure Chest.

The New Moon in Sagittarius

Read this New Moon report in it's entirety at www.astrologicalinvesting.com/html/newsletter.html
New Moon forecasts show the general trends and financial outlook for the month; here is what Kaye Shinker has to say for the month ahead:
The Sagittarius New Moon appears in the 9th house (refer to chart)

The New Moon at 13° 28' Sagittarius, December 5, 2010 12:36 EST Washington D.C.

The New Moon promises everyone an opportunity to travel and make new friends around the world. Trading with folks will be interesting and profitable. The holiday season promises to help you organize your philosophy. Books will be the best gift this holiday.

Legal and Judicial activity abounds on Wall Street. New laws and rules are issued by government agencies keeping the legal departments of financial firms very busy. Most of the legal issues probably require mediation. Rules changes will keep programmers busy and managers busy explaining the changes.

Everyone else will organize celebrations and find inexpensive ways to entertain their families and colleagues. This holiday season is perfect for relaxation and good fun.

Mars appears in the 10th House
Emphasis is on the Chief Executive Officers of all companies. Many will find it convenient to retire and change their life style.

Mercury appears in the 10th House
Scandals abound keeping reporters very busy and writers outlining their new book. New MBA graduates could find these scandals an employment opportunity.

Pluto appears in the 10th House
Government leaders will attempt to exercise additional controls on financial institutions. Since Pluto entered Capricorn they have been striving for additional power and authority forgetting the many unintended consequences. Government and other authorities will succeed where they can exercise their taxing authority. 

Neptune appears in the 12th House
Charities are riddled with scandals. Contributions will diminish and many charities will threaten to fold. Whistle blowers who work in important institutions will take to the web and protests will continue to be organized.

Jupiter appears in the 1st House
Folks will enjoy the energy of Jupiter as he brings prosperity and success. Employment will increase and business will find interesting new products as well as new customers.

Uranus appears in the 1st House
Folks take seriously their disagreements with regulations and legal authorities. They will display their outrage with boycotts. 

Saturn appears in the 7th House
Trade with other countries will be difficult and aggravating.

Venus appears in the 8th House
Tax revenues will increase due to higher employment and a better business environment. Local Governments will benefit with higher sales tax revenues.

Gold, Euro, Dollar

Time to look at these charts again.

May 20, 2010 I posted a blog with the astrological charts for the Euro, the Dollar, and Gold. Now that 6 months have passed financial astrologers are still stuck on the same topic. The Euro has returned to +$1.35, the Federal Reserve has returned to its quantitative easing, and gold has surged to +$1350 per troy ounce.

Gold

As to transits there is very little stopping gold from moving up in price especially with the Sun moving from the MC to the Asc. Of course this transit is shown in the seasonal rise of gold prices during the holiday season. Saturn squares Mercury and itself during December thus keeping speculation rather tame but Jupiter is making aspects to every planet as it moves into Aries. Feb 2012 is the deadline for goldbugs when they will have to make sure firm stops are in place. There are a lot of nuances in between where traders can jump in and out of gold with a chance for profits.

Euro

Problems with the Euro in November are the result of Jupiter square the Euro Moon along with Mars adding energy to the changes while he makes a conjunction to Pluto and Mercury. Mars and the Euro just do not like each other and every time Mars is conjunct one of the Euro's planets the Euro becomes nervous and loses a few cents. However the Euro and Jupiter get along just fine. The Euro likes a good Jupiter transit. Therefore the Euro will solve the problems of the public's perception that members are not able to pay the interest on loans made to the banks of member countries.

Jupiter was sextile Neptune through out August, the sextile Venus and square the Moon through October and in December it will be sextile Venus. Transiting Saturn square the Sun in trine Uranus has kept the price in a narrow range. Jupiter makes a string of positive aspects to the Euro planets through the first 6 months of 2011.

Dollar

Neptune is finally leaving the conjunction to the USA Pluto and therefore the dollar may revive its status as a reserve currency. QE2 occurred Nov 10 with Venus conjunct its Sun and Mars conjunct its Venus therefore the concern that the markets are flooded with excess dollars. Jupiter transits January-July 2011 seem to show an increase in the value of the dollar. This increase may very well be connected to the price of oil since Neptune is sextile Jupiter and Mars throughout this period of time. Natural gas and other green energy products may reduce the price of oil and therefore increase the value of the dollar.

Conclusion:

I think that after the January 4th solar eclipse the Dollar will hold its value through June. Lower oil prices will contribute to its value. The Euro will remain stable with their Central Bank slowly increasing the amount of Euro's available. Gold prices will move up slowly and remain below $1500 per ounce. You may disagree by posting a comment. Also check The Textbook for Financial Astrology Book 4 for Silver and commodities.

Chinese Currency

Yuan as Reserve Currency?

With the G20 meeting the IMF has announced a plan that would make China the third-strongest member. The position will allow China to take more responsibility as well as greater power.

The North Node and Pluto are conjunct the Jupiter Mars conjunction of the chart for the Chinese Currency. Pluto has been near 3 Capricorn since 2009 and finally achieved its goal of bringing the Yuan/Renminbi as one of the reserve currencies for the world market.

The Yuan has risen 3% since July and over the past 5 years it is up nearly 25%. notice that in 2006 Jupiter moved across the Venus South Node conjunction of the Yuan and as it passed each planet through Sagittarius and Capricorn the Yuan gained value against the Dollar, Euro and Yen.

The transit of Saturn to the natal Pluto gave the currency power to its structure. It's Saturn return kept the Yuan on its path. Saturn moving to a conjunction with Neptune may provide the opportunity to allow the Yuan some flexibility with interest rates in China allowed to rise to prevent a bubble in real estate or stocks. As Saturn reaches the MC the Yuan should become fairly valued however that will be 2012. The Saturn transit will allow the Yuan to remain a reserve currency for about 10 years.

The IMF has made a valid decision as to the future of the Chinese currency and its ability to take responsibility for the value of the Yuan. But what about the IMF?

Currency Bubble?

Are we headed for a world wide currency bubble? Jeremy Grantham suggests it is a possibility in his interview on CNBC, Nov.11, 2010. Bubbles usually occur when Jupiter and Uranus are in Aries and that will occur March-June 2011. This blog will discuss sectors where bubbles might occur during the next few months. Charts for the dollar, and euro appear in The Textbook for Financial Astrology. Stay tuned to this blog.

QE2 & the Federal Reserve

Show Down at the G 20 in Seoul

The Federal Reserve and the Dollar are in for a rough few months ahead as the world's economic leaders voice their disapproval of the quantitative easing of the Dollar by the Federal Reserve.

Chinese officials are not to pleased with the Federal Reserves policy of QE 2. The Financial Times article details the comments of the Chinese officials as well as other members of the G20.

The Astrologers task is to discover from the charts for the Federal Reserve if this policy will work or will it spark a currency war. Will it perform as promised? Will it make USA goods abroad cheaper, and therefore increase domestic employment.

No War

Mars represents employment and the July 11, 2012 solar eclipse was conjunct the Fed's Mars and the need for concern was real. But Mars becomes fairly lazy when eclipsed. Employees of the Fed and actually the whole country turned into monetary couch potatoes. No one was thinking and the Fed employees were just recycling old ideas that didn't work the first time. It certainly was too much like work to find other measures to move the USA economy.

Success?

The North Node is applying to the Fed Sun which along with Jupiter moving over the MC could signal a good decision will emerge around January 1, 2011. In addition the South Node will be conjunct the Fed's Pluto which would mean their power is easily recovered. It appears that Federal Reserve will succeed in spite of themselves. All of the hand wringing by critics will become a humorous anecdote.

The USA Economy?

A tremendous number of folks will find their unemployment benefits expire on January 1, 2011. The Republican House of Representatives will suggest "tough love" . It is amazing how quickly the economy improves when folks decide to work for wages.

When I set up the chart I thought I would also be a critic of the QE2 policy and I was positive that the Federal Reserve would make the mess even worse. However it appears that by mid-February we will decide that the policy was not awful. I'm surprised by the chart, now someone is going to tell me to use the November 16,1914 chart when the Federal Reserve opened its doors for business. Actually that chart has the South Node conjunct its Pluto Saturn conjunction. Same reading but the Fed will not get credit for taking a remarkably correct action.

Scorpios, birth dates during the dates of this New Moon, November 6 through November 21,and
Sagittarius, birth dates during the dates of this New Moon, November 22 through December 4.

Both signs will enjoy decorating their home base for the holidays and entertaining their neighbors. Scorpios will love telling stories and illustrating their adventures. Early Sagittarius will have abundant energy, therefore all efforts to improve their residence will pay dividends. Early Sagittarius need to keep their receipts in a file folder.

 This Month For Scorpio
You will need to be very interested in taking care of your personal transportation. If you need new wheels it is best to purchase them after November 18. Check the educational offers on your favorite ‘e’ trading site and practice the new skills with their virtual trader. Your piggy bank is hungry, feed it.

Advice for everyone - During the next six months I encourage every Sun Sign to take control of your personal environment and reclaim your power. This will be a short holiday shopping season. Shop with cash and save your receipts. Neptune remains alone in Aquarius, therefore everyone's computer fingers are in danger of being careless.

The New Moon in Scorpio

Read this New Moon report in it's entirety at www.astrologicalinvesting.com/html/newsletter.html
New Moon forecasts show the general trends and financial outlook for the month; here is what Kaye Shinker has to say for the month ahead:
The Scorpio New Moon appears on the 4th house cusp (refer to chart)

The Scorpio New Moon, November 6, 2010 at 12:52 EDT Washington, D.C.

Rain and snow are the problem with the snow cover heavy on the fields of winter wheat (good for wheat). Expect measured increases in the price of beef and fowl during the next few months. The New Moon on the 4th house cusp favors the election of the opposition party especially along the 80 degree longitude line. ( By the way Venus conjunct the Sun in Scorpio also favors the election of the opposition party as it did in 1994 )

Mercury appears in the 4th House
Agriculture is making new plans for the use of the land. In addition to new types of crops younger farmers are adding the machinery for home made electricity. Excellent prices for 2010 crops will allow farmers the opportunity to invest in new machinery and diversify their crop production.

Mars appears in the 4th House
Mars here indicates continued stress in the housing markets with new revelations about inept bank employees. Publicity concerning documentation difficulties further inspires a wait and see attitude among buyers. Dry weather is a problem for cotton and sugar crops along the 90 degree longitude line.

Pluto appears in the 5th House
New types of art and film gain public attention. Entertainment is going to the people with small cities tours. The Internet continues to create new venues for clever artists. It is becoming very apparent that the source of income for entertainment has changed dramatically. The commodities market will be amazed by the demand for copper.

Neptune appears in the 7th House
Advertising agencies and public relations departments are confused. Mergers and acquisitions are announced but many are flawed and need to be withdrawn. Currency negotiations between Central banks are chaotic and resolutions seem unsolvable. Accusations of unfair practices are true, but it will take months to untangle the web of deceits.

Jupiter appears in the 8th House
Leaders in government will bring attention to the need to collect corporate cash parked abroad. The public will favor the need to bring back cash since it will increase funds available to shareholders as well as employees. Share prices for cash rich companies will increase as we close the year.

Uranus appears in the 8th House
Strange weather as well as accidents will cause insurance companies to complain about using up their reserves. Investors and traders will find these companies difficult to assess as to future earnings therefore the prices for these stocks and funds will stagnate.

Saturn appears in the 3rd House
Problems concerning transportation are the main concern of citizens. Vehicle maintenance is required. It is a good time to check investments in companies that service vehicles and provide spare parts.

Venus appears in the 3rd House
Folks are shopping seriously for the best deal on all their electronic gadgets. They will buy new electronic toys but not without a deal. If you are considering investments in communications related stocks be sure to check earnings and yield. The migration of revenue from print media to electronics will be obvious in their earnings statements.

New Moon statistics

Buying stocks on the New Moon is a good idea

Selling stocks on the Full Moon is a good idea

About 2000 years ago an astrologer who wrote under the name Dorotheus commented on the influence of the New and Full Moon among traders in his markets suggesting that the Full Moon brought a higher price for their wares. In the early 20th century a trader by the name of W.D. Gann said approximately the same. It was an easy observation for most day traders. In the Textbook for Financial Astrology Book 1 Lesson 4 I quote the research of Zheng, Zuang, and Zhu from the University of Michigan which stated statistically on average stocks move higher after the New Moon and fall after the Full Moon. Bill Meridian's extensive research on the Dow from 1915-1994 shows the same trend.

Therefore it was exciting to read that a new group of researchers confirmed these statistics. Here is the link.

USA Saturn Return

Aphorism for a Saturn Return

About every 29 years every chart suffers a Saturn return. The aphorism is that if you are on your correct path, you will feel as if nothing happened, if you are on the wrong path you will be kicked in the pants until you correct the errors of your ways.

In the USA Sibley chart Saturn appears in the 10th house stating that the business of America is business. Since the USA Saturn is in Libra, one of the huge advantages of doing business with an American corporation is contract law. Once a contract is signed the American contract laws apply to the business deal. These laws are pretty straight forward and easy enough for a college Sophomore to understand.

Saturn Returns Past

Saturn returns for the USA indicate a new business emerges after a period of business disruption due to the necessity of rebuilding the economy following a difficult change in methods of doing business. Whole business sectors fail, and whole new ones emerge.

Saturn will return to 14 Libra December 2, 2010, March 20, 2011 and August 21, 2011. In other words we will have 9 months to straighten out the business of America and find new ones where we can invest our time and cash. Previous Saturn returns were October 1981 (PC's appeared), September 1952 (home appliances), November 1922 (autos). None of these are particularly memorable years except they are a time one innovation spawned a plethora of inventions. Suddenly a new machine became available to ordinary Americans and new businesses prospered. Of course the buggy whip, wash board, and white-out businesses failed, but new businesses took their place.

Future Ideas

Staring in November it is important to follow every news source for innovations. Follow the Penny Stock news, and the companies filing for IPO's. Neptune will sneak into Pisces in April 2011 stirring change in things ruled by Pisces. Check the Textbook for Financial Astrology for lists of these things.

Change will happen and small investments can pay off. Cash/gold have been king for the past two years because intelligent investors have been sitting on the sidelines anticipating the change. Sources for electric power is the obvious one at the moment. However there are quite a few others including new materials for shoes, simplified water purification, and innovative methods of agriculture production.

Investors with long range goals need to be as alert as ambitious entrepreneurs. This site is particularly interested in new businesses and we will report on ideas as they appear.

November 7 Neptune Direct

Throughout the Textbooks for Financial Astrology I discuss the deceptions of Neptune identifiying its aspects to various planets as a Red Flag. These deception are usually very costly and cruel. The Sibley chart for the USA has the Moon at 27 degrees Aquarius and during the past few months Neptune retrograde has passed over this critical point. Neptune is now stationed at 26 degrees Aquarius and during the next two months Neptune will turn direct and pass over this point in the USA national horoscope for the final pass.

As Neptune turns direct it will reveal one deception after another.

Swindles will be revealed. Thieves will be arrested. Liars will be caught. One economic bubble after another will burst. And you thought the bail outs were enough economic chicanery for one decade. Neptune direct will allow its creative side to find excellent answers and hopefully allow the problems of deception on the American public to be solved.

2009-2011 The Bubble Bursts and bursts and b u r s t s
Two Big Banks J.P. Morgan Chase and Bank of America are part of the Dow and their charts are in The Textbook for Financial Astrology . Big Bad Banks and some smaller ones have deceived their customers and their investors. Not good for a business dependent on the concept of 'trust' The public has been hoodwinked by the banks and mortgage companies at every level. It is an impossible mess. The contract laws meant to protect the investor on both sides of the equation have been flagrantly violated.

Neptune's final pass November 2010-April 2011 means that the public will finally know what is happening and how various banks intend to fix their problems. The deceptions have been cruel to yield hungry investors looking at mortgage backed securities as a safe investment and average folks who wished to secure their retirement with home ownership. The USA Cancer Sun explains why these citizens cherish their home. This pass by Neptune over the moon has stirred the emotions of the populace.

A quick look back in history tells us that Neptune was discovered by astronomers in 1846 at 26 degrees of Aquarius, the position it now occupies. The previous pass of Neptune over the USA Moon stirred the emotions of the public in various forms of land grabs. In the USA Gold was discovered in California, railroads were starting to crisscross the country and the Mexican-American War was being fought.

Uranus and Jupiter in Aries
Maybe their transit of Aries will help the bankers clean up the mess with some unusual pioneering ideas. They are ready to spend a few months together in Aries. However, experience tells us that when they are together in this sign, ' A Bubble Bursts'. Problem is there are a lot of candidates for bubbles. There are 25 Dow stocks with planets in early degrees of cardinal signs. Currently the bond market has expressed an interesting in bursting its bubble. Next in line is the commercial real estate business, and right behind is currency, and agriculture. Almost anything could happen. Fasten your seat belts.

Financial Astrology for Your Zodiac Sign For the Lunar Month Beginning October 7, 2010 - Your Astrological Horoscope and Financial Outlook by Kaye Shinker
The New Moon is in Libra. The Sun will enter the sign of  Scorpio15 days later on October 23rd at 8:35 am EDT.

Best Wishes and Happy Solar Return to early Scorpio Suns
and Libra Suns born October 7 through October 22nd! 

Our Libra friends are working very hard evaluating their assets and liabilities and are finding new ways to save money and cutting expenses where ever possible.  Librans see Saturn in their Sun sign as a personal challenge to maintain a thrifty lifestyle.

Our Scorpio friends can expect their new year to start with opportunities to earn some extra cash from their various projects. Events send them to new projects/jobs that require quick thinking and disciplined management of their time and labor. 

Both Sun signs realize it is time to work hard to preserve useful material possessions and to dispose of those that have lost their value. Now is the time to find investments with a reliable yield and take the time to study them. 

This Month For Libra
Venus the ruler of your Sun sign is retrograde. This means “no shopping”. Stash your Cash and do things that are basically free. Study the Internet with the goal of finding ways it will benefit your year ahead. Saturn transiting your Sun sign for the next 2 years means your middle name is “work”. Make sure your investments pay a reliable dividend. Set your goals and enjoy each accomplishment. 

This Month For Scorpio
It is time for you to take charge. You are the boss. The month ahead will give you the energy to get things done for yourself and others. Now is a good time to remember your managerial skills and use them in your work place. Follow your investments daily but avoid day trading. Your piggy bank is hungry, feed it.

If your birthday falls within the dates that Venus is retrograde this year, (October 8 through November 19) you will have Venus Rx in your Solar Return.
Deanna Rose discusses Venus through the houses in your Solar Return chart in her book, Easy Predictions with Solar Returns.

On the web site you will find the article, Venus- Money in Your Chart. Be sure to read it for directions on How to Construct an Astrological Treasure Chest.

New Moon forecasts show the general trends and financial outlook for the month; here is what Kaye Shinker has to say for the month ahead:

The New Moon in Libra, October 7, 2010 at 2:44 pm EDT Washington, D.C.

The Libra New Moon appears in the 9th House (refer to chart)

This is a Super New Moon putting a great deal of pressure on those sectors of the markets that provide education, publish books, and provide long distance transportation for the travel industry.

Saturn appears in the 8th House
Discussions proliferate on insurance and taxes. There are plenty of proposals of ways to improve insurance and maintain reasonable premiums. Taxes are the main topic of conversation with a plethora of suggestions as to ways to make them lower.


Mercury appears in the 8th House
Government will join the discussions of ways to return the excessive cash on the balance sheets of USA based corporations. The death tax may be settled and discussions will continue on other taxes. Voters are listening to eighth house issues death, taxes, accounting, and insurance. All others are not important. This position of Mercury indicates a change in political leadership in the legislature. Electors will favor the non incumbent.

Venus appears in the 10th House
The chart of the Equinox continues here putting an emphasis on the feminine leaders in corporate USA. Female leaders will find the environment very favorable for increasing the profitability of their organizations.

Mars appears in the 10th House
Mars here indicates increased covert military activity. Male corporate leaders will be aggressive as they promote their industry. Mars is at home in Scorpio, therefore we will tend to chose investments that are aggressive and likely to earn a nice return.

Pluto appears in the 12th House
Scandals and crimes will bring down the leaders of prominent institutions as well as businesses. Police and other investigators will gain recognition for arresting criminals both white and blue color. Whistle blowers will explain the corruption they see to concerned citizens as well as reporters. Corruption in charities, hospitals and prisons will be exposed.

Neptune appears in the 1st House
The public is confused by a lot of the rhetoric. They feel like everyone in charge of government and industry has lied to them. They will vote with the ballot and the pocket book. They are unhappy and ready turn everything upside down.


Jupiter appears in the 2nd House
It has the power to increase the value of stock, bonds and commodities. Folks are earning extra cash in interesting places. The job market will improve as employers are finding they need to fill more orders than they anticipated.


Uranus appears in the 2nd House
Strange happenings are in the market place. Investors and traders will sense that there is a something dishonest happening but they are not able to identify exactly what it is. Entrepreneurs are finding very unique ways to capitalize on the internet by adding subscription services. Web site owners are impressed and sign on to the new ideas.
