We look ahead and see more aspects of aggression and the use of such means as murder, rape, and kidnapping as part of the “business model” by several world leaders as Chiron and the Lunar North Node conjoin (solar eclipse) in the sign of Aries in March-April. In a large number of cases, this erratic planetary cycle has coincided with recessions within nine months, sometimes very severe, as in the case of the 1930’s Great Depression. I don’t know if this will be a “big one” or not in 2024. I am more inclined to think it happens with the Aries Vortex in 2026 +/- one year, which is when the Lunar North Node gets to Aquarius-Capricorn (see discussion in Forecast 2024 Book).
We have a cosmic conflict between the approaching Chiron/North Node/solar eclipse of late March or early April versus the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction of April 21. The former has a strong correlation to recessions and longer-term stock market cycle lows within the following year, while the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction more often correlates with new all-time or multi-year highs sometime between the aspect date and the following year. We could see both. That is new all-time stock market highs into spring/summer, followed by a sharp decline and recession by the middle of 2025. The Jupiter/Uranus cycle can also correlate with new inflationary readings anytime between April and the end of the year MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING JANUARY 8, 2024 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

Next, we find two favorable trine aspects unfolding. The first is the Sun/Uranus waning trine on January 10, followed by the Mars/Jupiter waning trine on January 12. This may coincide with a favorable movement in tech-related and energy markets. However, a more important aspect will be the Sun/Pluto duo, both ingressing into Aquarius together on January 20-21. The 0° Aquarius point is the important “super-charged degree” related to the “New Aira” of December 21, 2020 (Jupiter/Saturn conjunction) MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING JANUARY 8, 2024 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)
Another change in investor sentiment may be setting up on January 20 as both the Sun and Pluto ingress into Aquarius together. This is significant because 0° Aquarius is the “supercharged” degree of the “New Aira” (Jupiter/Saturn synodic cycles in air signs) that began on December 21, 2020. This highlights themes related to Jupiter, Saturn, and Aquarius. Jupiter and Saturn by themselves represent themes related to laws, court cases, and education, and all of these are ”on trial” now (i.e., the Donald Trump and Joe/Hunter Biden cases, plus the role of DEI in secondary and higher educational/university venues). With Pluto, big and surprising changes are unfolding here. These topics will accelerate in February when Mercury, Mars, and Venus will also cross the critical 0° Aquarius. ・・・ Looking further ahead, we see Jupiter trine Pluto from 0-1° Gemini to Aquarius on June 2. These are the same degrees that Uranus and Pluto will occupy in 2025-2026. Once the primary cycle low in stocks unfolds (before then), we may then see a soaring rally into this period. The leaders may be the emerging companies focused on AI and other innovations in technology. We will be getting a preview of the 2025-2027 “Aries Vortex” described in the Forecast 2024 book at that time.

Pluto is back. And this time with the Sun. That is, on Saturday, January 20, the Sun and Pluto together will cross the boundary moving from Capricorn and into Aquarius. It is like both celestial bodies are leaving the sign of the past and entering the sign of the future. In fact, the Sun and Aquarius both pertain to the future. This double ingress represents a potential “flip the script” scenario. ・・・ The Sun in Aquarius is never an easy trading period. In Aquarius, things don’t go according to plan. Markets can rally or fall sharply when everyone is expecting the opposite. Thus, we can anticipate the next month will not go according to expectations or current narratives. This means traders need to be very nimble, especially now, with the Sun and Pluto both entering Aquarius, but also next weekend （01/27）when Uranus (ruler of Aquarius) turns direct. This is one of the strongest reversal or breakout signatures in astrology pertaining to financial markets. It’s a breakout if a market is near its yearly high or low. It’s more often a reversal if it is undergoing a corrective countertrend move. ・・・ With Aquarius and Uranus highlighted for the rest of this month, large price swings may be noted in technology stocks, like the NASDAQ index.

It is all so Uranian, and Uranus and the sign it rules (Aquarius) being highlighted portends big surprises, big market moves, and sudden reversals. The “surprise” nature of both the planet and the sign is why this column recently mentioned that the season of Aquarius (January 20-February 18) is usually a very difficult climate for traders. ・・・ It doesn’t appear ready to let up. This week will find Venus trine Uranus (February 7), the Sun square Uranus (February 8), plus Mercury ingressing into Aquarius (February 5). This is followed by both Mars and Venus entering Aquarius, conjunct Pluto at 0° Aquarius, February 13-17. This year’s Aquarius season is especially hard hit with disruptive cosmic positions. And, of course, all of this is on a path to the 14-year Jupiter/Uranus synodic (conjunction) cycle that takes place on April 20, just as the Bitcoin halving event is to occur. ・・・ There is a lot of money to be made in trading in the next three months if your timing is good. And a lot of money is to be lost if your timing and discipline are not up to the task. MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING FEBRUARY 5, 2024 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)
This is all a prelude to the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction of April 21 that was the crux of our trading strategies given in last weekend’s webinar, suggesting the potential for explosive and huge rallies to new all-time highs in many markets. It doesn’t mean there will be no corrective declines to buy into before then, for the primary cycles in many markets are getting quite mature. But it does illustrate the appetite for risk that many traders and stock market players are willing to take on any decline as we head into this 14-year planetary cycle that has a rather high correlation to explosive rallies. Jupiter exaggerates, and Uranus is the disrupter that breaks boundaries such as yearly support (lows) and/or resistance (highs). The combination can be wildly bullish or bearish, depending on whether it is support or resistance almost begging to be violated. ・・・ In terms of the stock market and geocosmic signatures, we continue to plow through many reversal signatures into March 9. This week, on February 28, we find the stellium of the Sun, Mercury, and Saturn all conjoining in 9° Pisces, just one day after a powerful Mars (combative or pioneering) transits into square aspect to Jupiter. ・・・ Market-wise, Saturn’s presence this week can portend yet another pullback or stalled rally. Once it passes, however, another rally can commence, and that rally will become another major concern because this primary cycle is getting so mature (old). The older it gets, the more vulnerable it is to a steeper pullback. “old,” in market cycles, can be defined as 18-23 weeks. It is also an interval that is known as “exhaustion.” It is highly unusual to see markets make new cycle highs in weeks 18-23, and when they do happen, sharp declines usually follow. Thus, we cannot rule out another strong reversal zone this week or next (and ideally March 3-9) +/- 3 trading days, when Jupiter semi-squares Neptune (irrational exuberance or panic), which takes place between Mars and Venus squaring Uranus (dramatic price moves).

First, we note that in March 2024, the Lunar North Node will conjoin Chiron, the “wounded healer” in Aries, the sign ruled by Mars, the warrior. This also conjoins the U.S. natal and progressed Chiron. As if that were not enough, these conjunctions are in opposition to progressed Mars retrograde, debilitated in Libra. ・・・ These aspects also have a strong correlation to the stock market. For instance, the Chiron/North Node is a 14-year cycle, +/- 2 years. Their conjunction will happen next on March 5, 2024. The last time they conjoined was July 27, 2008, in the heart of the Great Recession. They also conjoined on October 23, 1929, shortly after the stock market made its all-time high and then began its worst collapse in history as the Great Depression got underway. In fact, in six of the last eleven instances of Chiron and the North Node conjoining, the U.S. has been in a recession. There was another case, and there were two recessions that happened – one within a year before and another within a year after (1921 and 1923).

The geocosmic possibility of a reversal this week rests on Venus square Uranus on March 3, Jupiter semi-square Neptune on March 4, and Mars square Uranus on March 9. The semi-square of Jupiter and Neptune brings the return of “irrational exuberance” to the psychology of the investment world. Everyone wants to get aboard this blast-off. But if and when it ends, the exuberance may transform into a mini-panic (or maybe even a full-blown panic) as those holding shares cannot get out (sell) fast enough. ・・・ What could cause panic? Well, Uranus, the Disruptor, who — like a moth to the flame — cannot stay away from chaos. When it’s not breaking resistance or support to new highs or lows, it can suddenly reverse direction as unexpected events erupt. It can be like an earthquake. The narrative suddenly changes from “going to the moon” to hysteria and shock. Any break of support this week could lead to an exaggerated decline that reflects the amplitude of the rise. ・・・ The Lunar North Node is also conjoining Chiron now. Someone will get hurt. Lives have already been lost in the mobs and chaos unfolding with the humanitarian efforts in Gaza. But it could also manifest in the trading of financial markets that are out of control. I would think by the time Mars squares Uranus next weekend, we will know if the danger is in the financial realm as well as in the realm of human safety.

However, they will continue to reflect on the state of cyclical and geocosmic factors, as already noted by the forthcoming Jupiter/Uranus conjunction on April 20/21, 2024. Well, let’s clarify that. Financial cycles are distorted by this powerful conjunction. It acts like a magnet for higher prices—in stocks, precious metals, and cryptocurrencies. And it may continue into and even beyond April 20/21, for Jupiter will continue making favorable aspects to the other outermost planets (Neptune and Pluto) into early June. After that, the good times may begin to turn by late summer as Jupiter embarks upon a 10-month hard square aspect with Saturn. What goes up, must come down. ・・・ Shorter-term, we may see a semblance of a return to more normal cyclical behavior as the aspects involving Mars, Jupiter, and Uranus peel back the rest of this month, perhaps to recharge their power for another barrage in April. What’s happening between now and then? ・・・ First, we have Venus entering Pisces on Monday, March 11, lasting until April 5. That’s a lovely combination of love and romance, but by itself, it doesn’t bestow much energy for financial market fireworks. On March 17, the Sun will conjoin Neptune, another cosmic union of peace and love (especially since it takes place in Pisces). This is considered a Level 1 geocosmic signature with a surprisingly very high 79% correlation to primary cycles within 10 trading days. Four days later, just one day after the spring equinox of 2024（3/22）, Venus will conjoin with Saturn. This is not usually a great union unless it combines beauty and youth with wisdom and experience. But this is a signature we like because it often coincides with a rally in any market that declines into it. If the stock market rally stalls now, this would be a fine place to look for a primary or major cycle trough. ・・・ It’s after April 1 that the real cosmic fireworks return. First, Mercury turns retrograde in the late degrees of fiery Aries. Tempers and temperatures start to rise. This is followed by a powerful eclipse on April 8 at 19° Aries, conjoining not only the Moon’s North Node but also Chiron, the “wounded healer.” Someone (anyone) could get hurt. This is further highlighted by the war threat aspect of Mars conjunct Saturn on April 10. It could get very hot. Finally, it culminates with Jupiter conjunct Uranus on April 20/21, around the same time that the Sun conjoins Pluto. All this occurs just before Mercury turns direct on April 26, near the same degree of the solar eclipse in mid-Aries, which, by the way, cuts right across the mid-section of the United States. https://www.mmacycles.com/free-weekly-forecast/mma-free-weekly-column-for-the-week-beginning-march-11-2024/
In the absence of any major planetary aspects last week, financial markets that had been making new all-time highs started to pull back modestly. That doesn’t mean the Jupiter/Uranus express headed to its major destination on April 20/21 has been derailed. It just means there is a pause as Venus will first conjoin Saturn on March 21, followed by a powerful solar eclipse, and Mars conjoining Saturn, April 8-10. ・・・ It may get a bit rocky short-term, but the magnetic pull of Jupiter and Uranus is still poised to outweigh other cosmic forces. After all, there is probably no greater cosmic symbolism of a breakout to new all-time or multi-year highs than Jupiter interacting with Uranus. Uranus doesn’t like restrictions such as support and resistance and is driven to break beyond them, whereas Jupiter likes to do things in a big, grandiose fashion. Those dynamics aren’t over yet. ・・・ We are on the edge of a very passive-aggressive collective mood for the next three weeks. The passivity is shown by the Sun conjunct Neptune of March 17 in Pisces. It is supported by the frozen Venus/Saturn conjunction, also in Pisces, on March 21. In market-speak, that means traders may want to believe the raging bull markets will continue, but now there is some doubt and confusion. ・・・ And once we pass through this fog of uncertainty, confusion, and passivity (or paralysis to act), we head into the eclipse season, with the Sun, Lunar North Node, and Chiron all in the potentially combative and aggressive sign of Aries. It’s another “Flip the Script” sequence. On top of that, Mercury will turn retrograde on April 1, which means instead of “flipping the script,” the script may “flip flop” (not much difference, except the flip flop means more confusion again). Financial markets could get rather rowdy and disorderly as we creep closer and closer to Jupiter conjoining Uranus on April 20. ・・・ By April 8, one of the most powerful solar eclipses to darken a path across the United States will command awe and attention. Everyone will be asking: what does this event—these few minutes of total darkness—mean? In Aries, the Nodes and Chiron are also nearby, which means there is danger of harm. With Mars conjoining Saturn two days later, it can signify war threats or threats from nature (hurricanes, earthquakes, floods, extreme heat or cold). With Pluto in Aquarius, it can be a threat of nuclear actions. MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING MARCH 18, 2024 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

In terms of financial markets, my observation is that solar eclipses tend to be more often positive than negative for stocks. However, they do not usually correspond to the culmination of primary cycles (lows or highs). They can reflect sharp gains and losses right before or after the eclipse. With the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction two weeks later, my view remains that stocks can still go higher and maybe continue even into May through June due to additional favorable Jupiter aspects arising then. ・・・ Yet, as previously mentioned, markets can get ragged here. Mercury will turn retrograde from April 1 through April 25. The “Trickster” can cause sharp price movements (up and down) in short spans of time, especially in its first 10–12 retrograde days. During the Mercury retrograde period, we will have the solar eclipse, which can also coincide with sharp price swings, followed by Mars conjunct Saturn on April 10. Combinations like this can also propel sharp price swings (reversals) in foods (watch grains, orange juice, and cocoa, and by association, also live cattle and meats). These are not likely easy markets to navigate, but until proven otherwise, keep the focus on the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction of April 20/21 as a marker for trends to continue in markets. MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING MARCH 25, 2024 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)
In the shorter term, the “Trickster” (Mercury retrograde) is about to start its version of March Madness on April Fool’s Day (April 1-26). The Mad Hatter, also a Trickster, would like this correspondence. Given the erratic and unpredictable nature of financial markets under the Trickster’s cycle, which also commences right in the middle of the lunar (March 25) and solar eclipse (April 8), anything is in play. Sometimes markets peak right into the Mercury retrograde date, +/- 4 trading days, and then sells off. If not, then they continue their trends until the midpoint of the retrograde cycle, which will be on April 14 (a Sunday) +/- one trading day. ・・・ In spite of all these attempts by some world leaders to create a narrative that evades truth and ignores the will of the people, many financial markets may continue to rally into the trio of Jupiter aspects on the horizon. These include the most powerful aspect of the year—Jupiter conjunct Uranus on April 20–21 followed by Jupiter sextile Neptune and trine Pluto on May 23-June 2. ・・・ However, after this season of financial and economic optimism and political appeasement, the mood may change as Jupiter enters a triple passage of a square aspect to Saturn, August 19, 2024–June 15, 2025. What once seemed to be a never-ending gravy train of profits, economic growth, and security may start to morph into signs that the patchwork of misdirection and false narratives is unraveling. https://www.mmacycles.com/free-weekly-forecast/mma-free-weekly-column-for-the-week-beginning-april-1-2024/
So, what do these cases of intermarket bearish divergences tell us, especially as they happened within a day of the Trickster making its turnabout (retrograde)? The bearish divergence chart signal tells us the market is bearish until each of these markets can make new all-time highs. The Mercury retrograde correlation is a little more nuanced. In many cases, a primary or greater cycle high within 4 trading days of the retrograde date can often serve as an important crest and the start of a 2- to 5-week or greater decline. In other cases, markets simply move back and forth every 1–4 days in a zig-zag pattern, which is the Trickster’s normal “fake out” behavior. And then we also have to consider the Mars/Saturn conjunction on April 10, just two days after the most powerful eclipse in the last seven years in the U.S., followed by the powerful 14-year Jupiter/Uranus synodic (conjunction) cycle on April 20/21. If the Trickster is going to shift directions every 1–4 days, then the low could be in this week, followed by another strong rally in the next 2–5 weeks. But if the Mercury retrograde was the primary cycle crest or secondary high early this week, then a very sharp 2- to 5-week decline into or beyond Jupiter conjunct Uranus may be underway (see below). ・・・ Aside from that, solar eclipses often correlate with a crest in stocks +/- 2 trading days. But the crest is not necessarily the end of a long-term trend. MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING APRIL 8, 2024 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)
My outlook and trading plans for 2024 will be primarily based around the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction on April 20-21, 2024, at 21° Taurus 50.’ I am looking for financial markets to spike sharply down or up into that period and then reverse. ・・・ I think some markets, like Bitcoin, may go up several weeks or months afterwards due to the halving phenomenon that is expected to occur around April 2024, especially given that the potentially explosive Jupiter/Uranus in Taurus unfolds then. Crude Oil, which is co-ruled by Jupiter, could also experience a parabolic move, but for different reasons related to supply and demand perceptions combined with world tensions. ・・・ In a perfectly orderly world based on simple astrology, markets would be expected to rise sharply into Jupiter conjunct Uranus and then move down just as sharply into the Jupiter/Saturn square, which will follow August 19, 2024, through June 15, 2025. But it will probably not be a perfectly ordered world or a perfectly related correlation. It may not be an exact repeat of the abstract cyclical outlook, but it could rhyme. ・・・ So, let’s start off this year’s Forecast Book with the simple idea of building a yearly trading plan around the 14-year geocosmic signature – Jupiter conjunct Uranus – because it has one of the highest planetary correlations to primary and even long-term cycles within a month. And it will ideally be followed by an opposite reaction into the Jupiter/Saturn waxing square that will follow. ・・・ Let’s go! Let’s find markets that are in their time band for 50-week or greater cycles near April 20-21, 2024.

Several global stock indices made new all-time or multi-year highs from mid-March through the first week of April, and then declined sharply into April 19, one day before Jupiter conjoined Uranus. Most of them rallied last week. If April 19 was the primary cycle trough in several stock indices, it fits the time band very well via both cycles and geocosmic studies. And now we see if the bull market can continue to new all-time highs into the summer before the three-passage series of the Jupiter/Saturn square begins August 19, with Mars also triggering it that week. Our main focus for this current rally will be on the tech stocks (NASDAQ) as Uranus rules this market, and it was just conjoined with Jupiter (which indicates reversals and large price moves). Also, tech stocks may soar because as Jupiter soon enters Gemini (early June), it will pass over the same degrees at which Uranus in Gemini will trine Pluto in Aquarius, 2025-2026. This favors AI, tech, and communication stocks, as well as electric vehicles. All of these were worrisome under Mercury retrograde, and all are due to return as Mercury turns direct now. ・・・ However, the big story last week was the 34-year high in the U.S. Dollar against the Japanese Yen. Panic is setting in here, and the Dollar has gone parabolic to the Yen. However, it is late in its 5.5-year cycle, and one of our basic rules is that when a market is late in a longer-term cycle, the higher it goes, the harder it falls. ・・・ Wednesday and Thursday, May 1–2, stand out for their strong Pluto themes. First, Venus squares Pluto, and then Pluto turns retrograde. Pluto rules the four D’s: debt, deficit, downgrades, and default. This, in turn, corresponds to reversals in debt-related markets, like Treasuries and currencies. The panic in Tokyo over the falling Yen may become hyperbolic. News about the escalating U.S. debt may also command headlines, along with proposals to raise taxes that will only escalate divisions and differences between the two dysfunctional parties. ・・・ Pluto is in Aquarius, so expect more protests turning to riots and demands for free speech versus censoring hate speech. Aquarius demands freedoms and free speech, but Pluto excels in hate and threats of violence if it doesn’t get what it wants when it wants it. This leads up to the bigger geocosmic fireworks scheduled May 13–18, when both the Sun and Venus conjoin Jupiter and Uranus in Taurus. It’s all related because Uranus rules Aquarius, which is where Pluto will be roaming over the next 19 years. So protests and anti-authoritarian movements are in vogue and driven to disturbances against the status quo in mid-May. This can be a shocker socially and also can coincide with extreme price movements in several financial markets, including Bitcoin, NASDAQ, and grain (food) markets.

This is all occurring within the larger “Flip the Script” cosmic narrative that started when both the Sun and Pluto ingressed into Aquarius on January 20, 2024. This was further supported by the recent Mercury retrograde cycle of April 1-25. But it is also observable in the world of economics and financial markets where narratives are changing, and markets are suddenly reversing, right along the timing of the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction (April 20), whose orb of influence will continue into mid-May. ・・・ This fits so well with Mercury the Trickster’s nature, combined with 1). hard Saturn aspects in April to the Fed’s chart (December 23, 1913), followed by 2). soft Jupiter transits starting now as we 3). head into the exit of the Mercury retrograde “shadow” on May 11. It’s back to the future! Or back to the themes that were present in the first three months of the year (before April, which is before Mercury turned retrograde). ・・・ We are also coming out of Venus square Pluto (May 1) and Pluto turning retrograde (May 2). Pluto relates to debt, and there is a lot of concern coming out about the non-sustainability of the U.S. debt trend. The next big reversal period will be May 13-18, when the Sun and Venus will conjoin Uranus and Jupiter. That combination has a strong correspondence with financial markets and will likely either reverse this new trend or propel a breakout to new highs (or lows), depending on which markets are near their yearly highs or lows around that time.

With Uranus being highlighted for the next two weeks and these indices（DJIA NASDAQ and S&P） near their all-time highs, it would not be a surprise to see them notch new records shortly. Uranus (the disruptor) has a knack for breaking through long-standing boundaries like support and resistance. ・・・ This is a big period for geocosmic activity related to reversals or breakouts in financial markets. Both the Sun and Venus will conjoin Jupiter and Uranus from May 13 to 23. This is important to students of financial astrology because it represents the first “translation” of the important 14-year Jupiter/Uranus conjunction that took place on April 20-21, ・・・ A “translation” occurs when a faster-moving planet aspects two slower-moving planets still in the orb of their aspect. Sometimes, the “translation” event is more spectacular in financial markets than the longer-term planetary aspect date itself. Will this “translation” result in another re-test of those lows (secondary lows) or a breakout to new all-time highs? Or something totally different and surprising? ・・・ The 14-year Jupiter/Uranus conjunction has now passed as of April 20-21, with various stock indices having made new all-time highs within one month of the event. It happened in March for the DJIA and NASDAQ and in April for the S&P. Is that it? Will the U.S. and other global stock indices now start a new bear market? Not necessarily, according to our research studies published in The Ultimate Book on Stock Market Timing Volume 2: Geocosmic Correlations to Investment Cycles. This study involved the past 11 cases regarding the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction going back to 1872 through 2010 and concluded: “Despite the seemingly low C/S values, this was still a very significant aspect. In six cases (55%), the DJIA soared to new all-time highs close to the time this conjunction was unfolding. In ten cases (91%), the market made a significant crest — always in the same month or within 7 months after the aspect (and usually 4 months or less). This implies that if the market is rising into the conjunction of Jupiter and Uranus, it will not top out before the aspect unfolds — and usually a little afterwards. On the other hand, if the market was declining into this aspect, it would complete its bottom within 1 month and then make a very powerful reversal back upwards. If a long-term cycle has bottomed within a year before, be long going into (and maybe slightly beyond), especially if the market is breaking to new record highs.” ・・・ The U. S. stock market did complete a 50-week cycle trough in late October 2023, within one year of the April 20-21, 2024, aspect. According to this history, another new all-time high will likely form within the next seven months, and probably within four months following the aspect (that is, by August 2024). This is just about a perfect correlation to classical astrology principles regarding aspects. That is, Jupiter is the planet of “good fortune” and is in favorable aspects to Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto from April 20 through June 2. But in mid-August, it switches to a square aspect with Saturn, the planet associated with fear and loss when in a hard aspect.

With Jupiter remaining prominent into the first week of June, this euphoria may continue. The question is: How long can this euphoria and bullish behavior last? With the emphasis in Taurus, traders and investors are prone to be complacent. That may be an unwise choice of activity, as the convergence of all the planetary benefics in Taurus is coming to an end. The next month will probably not be a favorable time for traders and investors to adopt the lifestyle of a “couch potato.” ・・・ All that stability may suddenly change as both the Sun and Jupiter leave the pleasant pastures of Taurus the Bull for the more disruptive and chaotic sign of Gemini this week. Yes, there is going to be a whole lot of shakin’ goin’ on in the next month—and probably the next year, as Jupiter will be in Gemini from May 25, 2024, through June 9, 2025. In Gemini, it will be more challenging to grab your bull by the horns. Gemini is a mutable “dual” sign, symbolized by twins going in different directions, which means sudden reversals to long- or intermediate-term cycles are more likely than usual. New highs can be followed by sudden downturns and vice-versa. Governmental and banking policies are also vulnerable to sudden changes, and investors may feel whipsawed by the reaction of markets to these surprising course changes. ・・・ The powerful stellium of the Sun, Venus, Jupiter, and Uranus May 13-23 is following the upside breakout course for stocks suggested last week. This is the first “translation” of the powerful 14-year Jupiter/Uranus conjunction of April 20-21 by faster-moving planets (including the Sun), which means the air of excitement suggested by Jupiter and Uranus is back. This pertains to the field of technology and especially AI, as part of the technological renaissance. New innovations and applications may be announced during the next month, which can further elevate stock markets. However, traders and investors must also be prepared for over-reaction, as in a bubble, while Jupiter (exaggeration and over-optimism) is in the volatile sign of Gemini. Gemini is an excellent astrological symbol of the concept of “what goes up, must come down.” Or, “the higher they go, the harder they fall.” Given that several intermediate- and even longer-term cycles are due by the end of this year, I expect wild times ahead for traders and investors, with larger and more frequent price swings in both stocks and metals and probably cryptos, too. MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING MAY 20, 2024 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)
The convergence and translation of the Sun and Venus over the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction in the “money sign” of Taurus corresponded to a sudden and sharp reversal in many financial markets last week, including equities and precious metals. Both of these sectors made new all-time or multi-year highs last week, then experienced sudden reversals to the downside. Is this a sign of trouble ahead as Jupiter starts its one-year trek through the volatile and changeable sign of Gemini? ・・・ Yet the behavior of markets last week is typical of how bull markets often behave near their end. There can be false breakouts initially. But when stock indices are this late in their four-year cycle, every bearish trigger has to be respected as a possible gong ringer. For example, over 90% of four-year U.S. stock market cycles since 1893 have topped out by their 49th month. May is the 50th month since the 4-year cycle began with the “COVID-19 Pandemic Panic of March 2020.” Furthermore, the 4-year cycle trough has occurred by the 56th month in over 90% of those cases. Thus, the U.S. stock market is due for both a crest and a trough within the next six months, and the crest will happen first. ・・・ We have discussed the history of the Jupiter/Uranus 14-year synodic cycle and its correlation to highs in stock markets 1-7 months afterwards (and usually 1-4 months afterwards). That cycle began when the conjunction took place on April 20, and we are now well into the 1-4 month aftermath when new highs usually occur (and as of last week, they have). However, there is another important long-term cycle to discuss, known as the first 1/8 phase (or harmonic) of the 32-37 year Saturn/Pluto cycle now underway, from May 6, 2024, to January 26, 2025. ・・・ The conjunction of Saturn and Pluto occurred on January 12, 2020. Within a month, the stock market had topped out, and the coronavirus pandemic crisis erupted, which led to extremely accommodative monetary and governmental stimulus policies as the stock market tanked. The nation’s debt skyrocketed. ・・・ However, there is another subtle geocosmic issue that may be involved here. Saturn/Pluto can also coincide with a “black swan” event that suddenly destabilizes markets. No one likes to—or even can consistently—predict a black swan event. Yet this is often the case when a market has its first 1/8 sub-cycle (harmonic) underway of a longer-term planetary cycle, especially one involving Saturn, Uranus, and/or Pluto with one another. ・・・ During that period（ coronavirus pandemic crisis 2020）, the U.S. stock market fell nearly 40% in one month, and the economy fell into a sudden, sharp, but short-lived recession. At the same time, the U.S. took on huge new debt in the form of drastic new stimulus packages and prolonged (too long) monetary easing measures. The first 1/8 phase (45°) of a planetary cycle is when similar themes return that were present during the conjunction period. It could be magnified this time because a 4-year stock market cycle (low) is also due during this planetary phase. We are also coming to the end of favorable Jupiter transiting aspects with a trine to Pluto next weekend, June 2. From there, Jupiter will begin its march towards the three-passage series of square aspects to Saturn, August 2024 through June 2025. It’s a different collective psychology than the soft and euphoric aspects Jupiter has been expressing with Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto.

Last week’s market behavior reflected the dualistic nature of Gemini. As the NASDAQ went up, the DJIA fell. When the NASDAQ fell, the DJIA went up. Usually, markets in the same sector move in the same direction, but that may not be the case when the Sun, Venus, and Jupiter are in the mutable sign of Gemini, and even more so when the Moon also travels through the mutable and dualistic sign of Pisces, which was the case on Thursday and Friday. ・・・ The danger is that this type of pattern occurring this late in a 4-year cycle is often seen when longer-term cycles are topping out. Much will depend now on how high a rally due this week will go. If the market is to remain bullish, then global stock indices need to rally to new yearly highs soon. If they start to fall again and take out the lows of the past week before making new highs, that could be a sign of trouble. The New Moon in Gemini is due this week and is normally bullish. Thus, if the markets are not bullish when they are expected to be bullish by these studies, then that means they are probably turning bearish. ・・・ Shorter-term, we find an interesting arrangement of planets in the heavens this week. Nine of the ten celestial bodies are compressed together in a 90-degree area and lining up, starting with Saturn in mid-Pisces and ending with the Sun and Venus in Gemini. In addition, with the Sun, Venus, and Jupiter (to be joined by Mercury next week) so close to one another in an air sign, this would normally augur a period of optimism and cheer. ・・・ In the days ahead, you will hear much about a two-tiered justice system. But don’t be surprised. This is the season of Gemini, the twins, with two heads scheming in opposite directions. This is not a season to take victory laps. With Gemini, emotions and trends can reverse quickly. However, all this energy associated with Jupiter and Venus in an air sign may offer a short-term boost to financial markets.

In the U.S., both the S&P and the NASDAQ made new all-time highs on Friday, but the DJIA did not, for a continuing case of intermarket bearish divergence. However, even though each index also made a weekly high on Friday, each also closed lower on the day for a “key reversal down” signal. This followed Thursday’s New Moon in Gemini, an air sign that has a slight historical bias for highs. Could this be the sound of the gong signaling a reversal down? It’s always a possibility this late into the 4-year cycle for which the bottom is due by November, but still far away (price-wise) from a confirmation. Yet, keep in mind that Jupiter in Gemini is a one-year period that can coincide with long-term cycle highs and lows. Gemini likes it both ways. ・・・ I find the most exciting yet challenging Sun sign periods for trading are Gemini and Aquarius. These are almost as challenging (but less exciting) as Mercury Retrograde (the “Trickster”) or those times that are near to hard transiting aspects involving Uranus. Actually, trading under Uranus aspects can be exciting, too, but it is hard to predict whether it will coincide with a reversal or breakout to new yearly highs or lows. In the case of the Sun in Gemini (May 20-June 20 this year) or Aquarius, the challenge involves anticipating huge price swings overnight. This is probably exaggerated at this time because Jupiter (exaggeration) is also transiting Gemini (May 25, 2024 through June 9, 2025). ・・・ we could see another price swing coming up this week as the Sun and Mercury square Saturn (June 9 and 12), surrounding Mars square Pluto in early Taurus/Aquarius (June 11). This latter aspect also implies that danger will be related to either natural calamities or warlike initiatives within one week. ・・・ These delays and regulations（technology and AI）, expected over the next three months, may grind the euphoria in these stock sectors to a halt. That’s what could happen when Jupiter transitions from favorable aspects to Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto (March-June 2024) to a hard three-passage series of squares with Saturn (August 2024 through June 2025).

Shorter-term and more market-related, we now leave our June 11 three-star geocosmic critical reversal date (CRD) time band. This included the Sun and Venus square Saturn and Neptune (June 9-20) as well as the dangerous Mars/Pluto square of June 11. We may have seen primary cycle lows in Gold and primary cycle highs in stocks (S&P and NASDAQ, but not the DJIA). Next week, the Sun, Mercury, and Venus leave the unstable sign of Gemini for the more defensive and protective-minded sign of Cancer. Financial markets (investors) might become more emotional over the next month. ・・・ In stocks, it was the opposite, where a case of intermarket bearish divergence continues as the S&P and NASDAQ made new all-time highs last week, but the DJIA did not. As we were still in Gemini’s season last week, such divergences are probably more the norm. Gemini’s nature can be a bit divergent.

The defensive posturing of investors may be heightened this week as first Saturn and then Neptune turn retrograde, on June 29 and July 2, respectively. Saturn, like Cancer, is more cautious and careful in judgment than most signs. It is less aggressive by nature, more like a wall that resists force. Thus, when Saturn is highlighted, many markets may be in the process of making lows in price. If, instead, they are making highs, then something may trigger investors’ fears of loss (or loss of profit), and thus selling begins and markets reverse to the downside. Saturn stations (retrograde and direct dates) have proven to be very strong reversal signals, especially when primary cycles (highs or lows) are due within an orb of ten trading days. Neptune retrograde is also a strong reversal signature. In fact, in our studies published in The Ultimate Book on Stock Market Timing Volume 3: Geocosmic Correlations to Trading Cycles, its historical frequency to primary cycles was a whopping 86%! That’s one of the highest geocosmic signatures we discovered for stock indices. But it also has a strong correlation to rallies in the Gold market. ・・・ For traders, this is a time to recognize whether a market move is the result of a rumor or fact. If it is a rumor, the move may be short-lived. In the trading community, the saying goes, “Buy the rumor, sell the fact.” MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING JUNE 24, 2024 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

Second, the majority of stock market cycles since the 1890s with Jupiter in Taurus have more frequently exhibited bearish trends, not bullish. Maybe Taurus‘ mascot should change from a bull to a bear before the cosmic compliance office accuses market watchers of willful misinformation. In many of these cases, the stock market remained bearish until Jupiter reached Leo, +/- one sign, which will be in effect June 2025-August 2028.

The Mars/Venus/Pluto conjunction of February 13-22 had a sordid correlation last week to the disturbing death (murder?) of Russian dissident Alexei Navalny. Each of these planets has recently left Capricorn (the past) and crossed over the supercharged degree of 0° Aquarius (the future). This was outlined in our annual Forecast 2024 webinar last week, as we explained how Pluto moving over the first degree of Aquarius can be turbulent, violent, and coercive. It is a step in the challenging process by which Pluto in Aquarius finds the courage and resistance to oppose this type of bullying behavior in its pathway to greater freedom and independence. In other words, we are now in a cycle of violence, destruction, and war now (along with innovation and invention), and it might last until the Aries Vortex of 2025-2027 finally reaches its nadir.

The transits to the chart of the Federal Reserve Board look favorable—and even accommodative—after Mercury leaves its retrograde shadow zone on May 11. Then, a multi-month transit of Uranus in favorable trine aspect to the FRB’s natal Jupiter at 23° Capricorn follows. This suggests some rather innovative new policies (and arguments) by the Fed that could be perceived as unusually accommodative given the data that is actually being reported. ・・・ However, after that, the “Aries Vortex” comes into play as Saturn and Neptune approach their conjunction at 0° Aries in February 2026, right on the FRB’s Midheaven and in a potent T-square to its Sun/Pluto opposition. This implies a fierce power struggle for control of the Fed, +/– one year. MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING APRIL 29, 2024 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

As we left that period in the mid-1990s, we pointed our readers to the next powerful configuration involving the outer planets of 2008-2015, a period we coined as “The Cardinal Climax,” for Saturn, Uranus, and Pluto would all be entering cardinal signs (along with Jupiter and Saturn too), forming a powerful cardinal T-square with one another for the first time since the Great Depression. Indeed, it was another economic depression, now called the “Great Recession” of 2008-2011, when many companies and even nations (like Greece) went bankrupt or suffered credit downgrades. The current worldwide debt crisis exploded then under the experimental policies of central banks known as QE (quantitative easing) and ZIRP (zero interest rate policies), and out-of-control fiscal (stimulus) spending by many governments of the world, including the U.S.
And now we are headed into another powerful geocosmic configuration involving the major outer planets. We will henceforth refer to this as the “Aries Vortex.” In February 2026, Saturn and Neptune will both enter Aries in a powerful conjunction aspect at the “world universal degree” of zero Aries. Additionally, Uranus will form a trine Pluto from Gemini and Aquarius, respectively, and their midpoint will be near the zero Aries point. Thus, this is not only a Saturn/Neptune conjunction and Uranus/Pluto trine but also a double sextile aspect between Saturn/Neptune to both Uranus and Pluto. It will look like an arrow with the zero Aries point at the tip, hence acting like a cosmic vortex attracting a powerful energy that brings together the principles of Saturn/Neptune and Uranus/Pluto. According to colleague and Astro researcher Daniel Gordon, who initiated the discussion on creating a name for this cosmic event, nothing like this has happened before. Yes, there are remarkable similarities to the mid-1400s and the European renaissances, but nothing involving the four outermost planets sharing the universal degree of zero Aries, which represents the end and beginning of the astrological signs.
Even though it is not exact until early 2026, the themes of this unusually powerful geocosmic combination are already underway as of December 21, 2020, when Jupiter and Saturn began the 160-year “Air Epoch” (or the “New Aira,” a term coined by colleague Kat Powell) with their conjunction at 0° Aquarius. This was then followed by the ingress of Pluto into Aquarius (the same 0°) on March 23, 2023.
You can see and feel it starting to unfold now. The direction of humanity is undergoing an enormous change of direction, and we are not quite sure exactly where it will end up, typical of Saturn/Neptune. But we experientially know it is happening. We are aware of the dangers as well as the hopes this Aries Vortex poses. We were (and are) prepared for it to happen via our understanding of the correlation of geocosmic cycles to cycles in human activity. After all, this awareness and understanding is the real value of astrology to society. https://www.mmacycles.com/free-weekly-forecast/mma-free-weekly-column-for-the-week-beginning-july-3-2023/
