We are accustomed to counting in a linear fashion. Today is December 18 and 7 days from now it will be December 25.

For an interesting read, I recommend Christopher Carolan’s book, The Spiral Calendar.

In this publication, Mr. Carolan unveils a unique counting system based on the Fibonacci Sequence and the 29.5 day lunar cycle.

In a recent edition of the Astrology E-Alert, I introduced subscribers to this bit of mathematical wizardry. From significant market highs (or lows) one can apply this technique to produce future projected time intervals.

The following chart is that of Soybeans. I have overlaid this chart with some Spiral Calendar day counts. Notice how these counts align quite nicely to peaks and valleys in price? The Universe is more complex than we think.

Future price highs and lows are already pre-determined. We just don’t realize it because we are so fixated on the here and now…..

If you are looking for an interesting read this Holiday Season, may I suggest Babylon’s Banksters by author Joseph Farrell. If the title of this book does not immediately fascinate you – maybe the subtitle will – The Alchemy of Deep Physics, High Finance and Ancient Religion.

On page 114, Farrell recounts the story of how in 1946 RCA (Radio Corporation of America) erected a telescope in lower Manhattan to observe sunspots and their effect on radio wave transmissions. The RCA engineers correlated their sunspot observations to heliocentric planetary placements and they found some unique results. They found that hard aspects of
(Venus and / or Mercury) to any of Jupiter, Saturn or Uranus resulted in radio wave distortions.

With this in mind, I invite you to cast attention back to January 2014 when the North American markets started the year with a sell-off. In my December 2013 E-Alert I displayed a standard McWhirter chart of the coming Jan 1, 2014 New Moon and I stated – “I have outlined in yellow, the two T-Square formations that include the New Moon point in Capricorn.
Under the McWhirter approach, hard aspects involving Uranus and Mars imply some volatility for the month ahead”.

Let’s now overlay these comments with a heliocentric planetary chart for January 2, 2014 as follows:

Note the unique aspects that were in play at that time. Venus was 90 degrees Uranus. Venus was 0 degrees Earth. Earth was 90 degrees Uranus. Jupiter was 90 degrees Uranus. Jupiter was 0 degrees to Earth. Earth and Jupiter were 180 degrees to Pluto and Mercury. Mercury had just completed a 90 degree aspect to Uranus a couple days earlier. Earth and Jupiter were 120 degrees to Saturn. Earth and Venus were 120 degrees to Neptune. Mars was 180 degrees to Neptune. In addition, Mercury was at its maximum declination as was Venus.

Very simply stated – our solar system is a dynamic electrical one. We mortals here on Earth are the recipients of energy from the cosmos that arrives as a result of sunspots and solar radiation. These sunspots are affected by the gravitational forces between planets which range in magnitude as a result of planetary alignments. This energy in turn affects our bodies (which are mainly made of water and carbon) which produce emotions which affect our buying and selling decisions on the financial markets. This example profoundly illustrates how a complex arrangement of planets can trigger some major movements on the markets.

In a recent edition of my Astrology E-Alert I went on to illustrate to subscribers how unique heliocentric aspects were responsible for the market sell-off that started in late September 2014.  To keep abreast of unique developments such as heliocentric aspects that can influence human emotion and the markets – I welcome you to become a subscriber to the E-Alert.

As the embedded horoscope illustrates, the North Node right now is in the sign of Libra.

In her 1937 classic work, Louise McWhirter had the following to say:

“…when the North Node reaches the sign of Leo, the Business Cycle is at its high point, if there are no secondary factors to distort the cycle. As the Node moves towards Cancer, the Business Cycle is above normal, but is slowly trending back towards normal…”

 In a recent edition of my Astrology E-Alert, I detailed for subscribers when the current business cycle should reach its peak. As for here and now, the one factor that is of interest is the 180 degree opposition of Uranus to North Node which will remain in play until the end of Q1 2015. Accordingly, it would not surprise me to see continued volatility on the equity markets much like we have seen for the past couple months.

To read my complete analyses on subjects such as the Business Cycle, I invite you to become a subscriber to the E-Alert.

In early October I offered E-Alert subscribers up a preliminary look at internet commerce giant Alibaba. At that time I postulated that Pluto inverse quantum price lines (CS=1/8) would be a good tool to use.
Now that I have more price data to work with, I have refined this notion and I now advise that Neptune quantum lines are the ones to use. On the following chart I have sketched in the Neptune lines. I have indicated the price levels where some of these quantum lines reside. On your price charts at home you can use a ruler and a pencil to extend these lines several months forward. I have also overlaid Mars lines. If you are using Market Analyst software, I will be happy to email you the template workbook for this Alibaba chart complete with quantum lines so you don’t have to waste time calculating them.

There appears to be a coming intersection of Mars and Neptune quantum price lines in late December. Watch carefully.

Quantum Price Lines Applied to Alibaba stock

I have also looked at Alibaba using traditional McWhirter astrology and I note:

The recent October lows align to a 90 degree aspect between transiting Mars and natal Sun.
In mid-February 2015, Mars will be at 180 degrees to natal Sun.
December 2015 will see Jupiter make a 0 degree aspect to natal Sun ( a once in 12 year event). This could be a critical multi-year tipping point (good or bad…) for price of Alibaba.
January of 2017 will see Saturn make a 90 degree aspect to natal Sun. This likewise could be another critical point in time.

To the ancient Babylonians, the planet Venus was called Ishtar – the Goddess of War. Venus was further revered by the Egyptians, Greeks, Romans and even the Mayan civilization who were said to have launched attacks on their enemies only at certain times of the Venus cycle.

The Venus cycle is 584 days in length as viewed from our geocentric position here on Earth. A typical Venus cycle starts at what is called Inferior Conjunction – when Venus is between Earth and the Sun as the following diagram illustrates.

At Inferior Conjunction, Venus is between Sun and Earth

After Inferior Conjunction, Venus is then visible in the morning eastern sky as the Morning Star for 263 days. For any of you familiar with the rituals of the Freemasons, you will recognize this reference to the Morning Star. Venus then goes through a period called Superior Conjunction (where Sun is between Earth and Venus) as the following diagram illustrates.

At Superior Conjunction, Sun is between Venus and Earth

During the 50 days of superior Conjunction, Venus is not visible to the unaided human eye.

Once it does become visible again, it appears to us as an object in the western evening sky as the Evening Star for 263 days.

It then approaches Inferior Conjunction and a new cycle starts again.

To address the question of whether or not Venus impacts human emotion, consider the following:

• In early January 2014, Venus made the transition from being visible as the Evening Star to being at Inferior Conjunction. (ie a new 584 day cycle started…).
• Did the markets experience a reaction at this transition point? Look back to your charts and I think we can all agree that early January 2014 saw the onset of a brief period of human panic.
• In the 3^rd week of September 2014, Venus made the transition from being visible as a Morning Star to being invisible to the un-aided human eye (ie the 50 day Superior Conjunction period started…).
• Did the markets experience a reaction at this transition point? Look back to your charts and I think we can all agree that late September 2014 saw the onset of another brief period of human panic.So, I have to conclude that our ancient brethren were right. There is a connection between human emotion and the Venus cycle.
• I will leave you with one more bit of trivia. At the conclusion of each Venus cycle, if one were to plot the zodiac location of Venus, an interesting pattern emerges.
• And so it goes… I have traced this cyclical behavior back to the 2007 market highs and I am sure if I continued tracing it back in time I would keep finding alignments to periods of trend change on the markets.

I will leave you with one more bit of trivia. At the conclusion of each 584 day Venus cycle, if one were to plot the zodiac location of Venus, an interesting pattern emerges.

The pattern is called a pentagon and the star pattern inside it is a pentagram. As noted above, throughout history, Venus has been associated with Gods and Goddesses of War. There is a building in Washington, DC where military commanders make war decisions. That building is the Pentagon and it is 5-sided. Now you know why this is so……

As of November 12^th, Venus is now visible as an Evening Star and will remain so until early August 2015 at which time Inferior Conjunction will occur and a new cycle will start. Circle this early August timeframe on your trading calendars. Something will happen…..
