Dear Fellow Star-Gazers,
Happy Full Moon!
I have qualms as to the financial events that could occur at this lunation. Unless there is a break in a historic pattern, then we should soon witness major market moves – most likely to the downside.
My style has always been to look for a cluster of astro-events. When these occur, action is more likely than not.
Venus moved into Gemini last weekend and on Monday, Uranus joined Sedna which moved into Gemini last year. There is no-one alive on the planet who has experience of this alignment.
These
are ‘uncharted air waves’ given that Gemini is an Air sign. Other astrologers have opined that the relationship to Pluto – also moving through an Air sign, provides an apt cosmic geometry to describe the advancement of artificial intelligence. I agree but this is only part of the story:
Uranus is also arguably the more ‘political’ of the planets and, in keeping with the fresh vibration offered by this ingress, new
political ideologies emerged. Last weekend Elon Musk announced his America Party while here in the UK Jeremy Corbyn announced the imminent formation of another party. Their aims might not be as altruistic as first appears as the very presence of these new parties will surely dilute opposition and give strength to those presently in power.
That said, and at breakneck speed in many countries, expect to see new alliances and
affiliations. The world order is changing – though a clear way forward might not be visible until after the next Saturn-Uranus alignment in the early 2030s.
That conjunction is heavily featured in this weekend’s Crypto event where I will consider the outlook for both the main players in this growing field and some of the newer alt coins. (Booking information below)
USA
Venus and Uranus formed their last conjunction in Taurus as President Trump signed his ‘big beautiful bill’. He did so at the exact minute that asteroid Astrea (often in key position when contracts are involved), was at the Midheaven. It was indeed a special moment in that Eris, planet of discord, was at 0 degrees declination (consider this a world axis point) underscoring the intensity
of unhappiness felt by many. That same day, Neptune came to its station. This planet has a justifiable reputation for obscuring facts and motives. To top it all, Pluto (tax) was on the exact midpoint of the Sun and trader’s asteroid Vesta.
This act was truly written in the stars.
Yet nothing lasts forever, and this executive order will eventually
be challenged – perhaps as soon as late 2029 when Pluto makes hard aspect to both the Moon and Mercury of its chart.
There is also the increasingly high probability of the collapse of the USA. I wrote about this in my first book’ The Financial Universe’ in 2004. Back then I thought that the cracks would show in 2020 – and that a break-up of the union was inevitable..
It is to be hoped that we do not see another American Civil War, but history tends to repeat, and Neptune is now back where it was when that war broke out. Moreover, on the last three occasions when Uranus has moved through Gemini, America has been at war.
My colleagues in the US are better equipped to make comment, but even a brief look at the chart for the state of California brings
thoughts of the potential for this to be a break away state. This September’s lunar and solar eclipses align with key points in that state’s horoscope. There have been eclipses here before, but presently this sequence coincides with other configurations strengthening the argument for a review of California’s part in the union.
QATAR
This Full
Moon falls on the MC/IC or back-bone of the chart if set for Doha in Qatar. The Qataris are again playing host to those engaged in seeking peace in the Middle East. We can only hope that these will be successful. However, with Venus moving to 90 degree angle with Mars and formidable planetary geometry visible at the August Full Moon, the planetary odds of agreement holding are not good.
GOLD
It can be shown that Mars' passage through Virgo tends to stall gold prices -as has been the case since its ingress last month. A reversal of this trend is probable before the next Full Moon and conceivable that the price will exceed earlier levels by August 9th.
EQUITIES
I
anticipate a downward trend related to this Full Moon. President Trump’s tariff issue is still unresolved, and Mercury is set to turn retrograde at a notable degree on Friday July 18th.
The New Moon on July 27th offers little respite: indeed, it is likely that further threats to trade will be made leading to a possible August meltdown.
Commodity prices are
likely to react to the Sun-Mercury conjunction on July 31st. I have concern about food prices long term as weather patterns, war and political decisions could yet lead to shortages.
The short-term outlook – even without taking the September eclipses into account does not look hopeful.
SPACE AND
INVESTMENTS
Downturns are regular of course and mitigated by promising investments. As some of you know, I am fascinated by what I term the two new Silk Roads: Space and digital currencies.
CRYPTO EVENT
At the Crypto event this Saturday (booking link below), I will show my research and make comment about
BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL, ADA, SUI and more.
MONTHLY EVENT:
The July 20th Monthly event will focus on Europe, the Euro, and space investments.
COURSES
My recent trip to Istanbul was just
wonderful. I made many new friends and promised to create courses for them. The work has begun. If you showed interest in the 6 module course, Julie will be in touch with news about that.
Michael would be astounded and happy with developments. I can hear him cheering me on but so wish that he was actually here to share the joys.
Until next
time,
Yours from the stars
Christeen
