Shorter-term, there are three periods that stand out in June-July 2023. The first is right now as Saturn turns retrograde, and is in a favorable sextile with Jupiter as noted earlier. Additionally, the Sun squares Neptune this weekend, creating a powerful geocosmic reversal zone. Second, financial astrologer Rob Robinson reminds us via the ISAR financial chat room that transiting Mars and Uranus will square one another in late June, touching off the NYSE Mercury/Pluto square at the same time. Neptune just happens to turn retrograde then too, which is one of the very strongest correlations to primary cycles in the DJIA. Third, Venus turns retrograde on July 22, another powerful reversal signature that was present at the low of the dot-com bubble (NASDAQ) stock market crash in October 2002 (the NASDAQ had lost 80% of its value by then) and the Great Recession low of March 6-9, 2009. It also unfolded within two weeks of the all-time high in the DJIA on January 5, 2022.　 https://www.mmacycles.com/free-weekly-forecast/mma-free-weekly-column-for-the-week-beginning-june-19-2023/

Neptune highlighted prefers silence, when activities are nearly invisible and unnoticed. The Sun squares Neptune this weekend, Neptune turns retrograde on June 30, and Jupiter will make a semi-square to Neptune on July 22. But it may not be that quiet in late July, for the almost-too-loud Mars/Saturn and Sun/Pluto oppositions will also be thunderous July 20-21. That’s a combination that probably can’t avoid being heard or seen. That’s a cannon blast from deep within the earth’s surface or well below its waterline. Investors (and refugees) could be in a rush to get their life vest on at some point in June or July, for anytime we see Jupiter in hard aspect with Neptune, it may coincide with a climate of irrational exuberance (euphoria) or hysteria. The latter follows the former.　https://www.mmacycles.com/free-weekly-forecast/mma-free-weekly-column-for-the-week-beginning-june-19-2023/ 

  The holiday week will begin with a Venus/Uranus square on July 2, the first of three that will unfold between now and September 29 due to the retrograde motion of Venus starting July 22. This suggests a very interesting summer, for both Venus retrograde and Venus square Uranus (in the money sign of Taurus) indicate suddenly changing central bank policies that can affect interest rate sensitive markets like Treasuries and currencies. In fact, they can also correspond to sudden reversals in equity, Copper, Corn, and Soybean prices as well. It looks like this may be a summer of unusually high volatility.
  After the first Venus/Uranus passage this weekend, along with a Full Moon on Monday, July 3, the geocosmic climate becomes quiet until July 20-22. And then the next big bang erupts as Mars opposes Saturn (war-like and hot), the Sun opposes Pluto (possible threats and danger to crops and life), Jupiter semi-squares Neptune (floods and more irrational enthusiasm or panic), and the biggest bang of them all, Venus turns retrograde. It’s all about money and love, and …  https://www.mmacycles.com/free-weekly-forecast/mma-free-weekly-column-for-the-week-beginning-july-3-2023/ 

the Jupiter/Neptune semi-square on July 21 is a dynamic that often correlates to irrational exuberance or hysteria.　Right now, it is the former for world equity markets, many of which enjoyed a very gainful week.　・・・　It’s going to be an interesting six weeks as Venus turns retrograde now, especially as it squares Uranus a second time on August 9, right near the midpoint of its retrograde cycle. Venus is the planet of expectations but is also known to be indecisive when expectations are not realized. Retrogrades are known for reversing decisions.　・・・　With Jupiter semi-square Neptune, Mars opposite Saturn, and the Sun opposite Pluto, bubbles can burst, and heads can spin.　https://www.mmacycles.com/free-weekly-forecast/mma-free-weekly-column-for-the-week-beginning-july-24-2023/

Attitudes about future trends in finances and economies are changing. This is yet another theme related to Venus retrograde, especially as she forms three waxing square passes to Uranus between July and September. Uranus is important here because it is in Taurus, one of Venus’ ruling signs, and in this case, also the sign of money and banks. The second – and likely the strongest of the three square passages to Uranus – will take place on August 9.・・・Will the stock markets top out around August 9 and reverse, instead of breaking out to more new highs? Or will markets fall hard into that aspect and then reverse back up?・・・Another is the waxing trine of Mars and Jupiter on Tuesday, August 1, which has a correspondence to both Crude Oil and stock markets. Since global indices are still rising, it’s possible they will find a ceiling nearby to this favorable trine between these two fiery planets. If so, we could then see a healthy pullback into a low during Venus square Uranus.・・・Not only does Mars trine Jupiter next week, but the Sun will form a square to Jupiter as well on August 7. The Sun is the third of these fire trilogy planets, so all three will be active with one another between August 1 and 7. Each of these transits has a high correlation to sharp reversals within four trading days, which will also overlap．・・・The next most powerful signatures for a prolonged move don’t arise until late August into early September. Any market that peaked or bottomed within a week of Venus retrograde (July 22, +/- 1 week) is a candidate to sell off into Venus turning direct, which takes place on September 4.　　https://www.mmacycles.com/free-weekly-forecast/mma-free-weekly-column-for-the-week-beginning-july-31-2023/　

　Uranus, in aspect to any planet, is unpredictable because it can either be a reversal within 4 trading days or a breakout if trading near primary cycle lows or highs. The second passage（08/09） in a 3-passage series is usually the most pronounced and correlates with the most dramatic moves of the three passes. Will it be a reversal or a breakout? On top of that, Venus retrograde will reach its midpoint as it conjoins the Sun next weekend（08/13）, often another period indicative of market reversals +/- 2 days.　・・・　On August 16, the Sun will make its opening square to Uranus., the same date that Mars will make a trine with the planet of disruption. On August 28, Uranus turns stationary retrograde, one of the very strongest reversals uncovered in our published research studies.　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING AUGUST 7, 2023 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

Jupiter and Uranus are within orb of conjunction in Taurus, and stock markets are rising. But Uranus just turned retrograde, and Jupiter will do the same on Monday. Together, they make a wide grand trine to Pluto in Capricorn and Mercury in Virgo, but both of them are also now retrograde (and Sunday-Monday is also the day that Venus turns direct and Mercury is at the midpoint of its retrograde cycle). A grand trine in earth signs is symbolic of wealth or the potential to earn it. But retrogrades can also indicate turning away from the opportunity to advance in a material sense and choose another path as a maverick.　・・・　In the immediate future, we note that Mars is now in Libra　(August 27-October 11), usually a time for stock markets to rally. But after that, Mars ingresses into Scorpio from October 12-November 24.　　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING SEPTEMBER 4, 2023 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

Mars is in Libra now, August 27- October 11. ・・・　Markets usually like this combination because there is much talk about the need to do something, but very little effort as the urgency of the moment gets lost over the delay of time. Everybody sees the need for action, but there is no consensus on what that action should be. But still, markets usually go up as long as there is hope. The hope is dashed if nothing gets done, however, by the time Mars enters Scorpio.　・・・　　

This weekend finds the Sun trine the disruptive Uranus, but Venus square the exaggerated Jupiter. This is followed by the Sun/Neptune opposition on September 19 and Sun/Pluto trine on September 21. Of these, the Sun/Neptune is the most important in our work. It is considered a Level One signature, the most consistent of correlations to major reversals in stock indices, usually within only four trading days.　・・・　　Even though markets look more exciting next week, it all appears to be a setup for some really major fireworks in financial markets to take place after Mars enters Scorpio on October 12 (and maybe one week before as it squares the lunar nodes and Pluto), lasting through November 24.　・・・　.This（October-November） is when we see the most exceptional trading opportunities arising for the remainder of this year. With Mars in Scorpio looming, it is also the time when we anticipate the ongoing political dramas will yield some explosive revelations.　　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING SEPTEMBER 18, 2023 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

　This was the week that Venus made its third and final square to Uranus (Friday, September 29). One of the outcomes of a hard aspect between Venus and Uranus can be either a breakout of multi-month support/resistance, or a reversal. In this passage, it is coinciding with breakouts so far. Last week witnessed several global stock indices break one support after another. ・・・
　In terms of the stock market, this column and the MMA subscription reports forecasted that once this current primary cycle tops out, the largest decline of the year would likely commence. So far, the sharpest decline of the year in the DJIA has been nearly 3000 points from the high of January 14 (34,342) to March 15 (31,429). The reason for our forecast was based on the idea that this is the third primary cycle since the longer-term cycle trough of October 13, 2022, and third primary cycles often correlate with 50-week cycle lows. This is also the time band of the “Pre-Presidential Election-Year Cycle Trough” that we introduced to readers of our annual Forecast Books several years ago, where the market exhibits a pronounced decline into September-March the year before the U.S. election.
　Additionally, there is a Sun/Mars conjunction approaching on November 18. As discussed in our last MMA Cycles Reports, this aspect has a strong correlation to 8% or greater declines in many global stock indices when it is within 8° of exactness. It is within 15° now, and so far, the decline has been 6.6%. It will enter this degree range in about 3 weeks and last well into December. In other words, the decline now underway isn’t likely to end very soon. However, the good news is that once it does end, the strongest rally in over a year is likely to commence.
　The breakouts associated with the Venus/Uranus square generally end within two weeks. This fits well with the fact that there are no other major aspects unfolding until the week beginning October 9, when Mars will square Pluto, which can be an intense, war-like, threatening dynamic. That might be especially intense this time because Pluto will also turn direct the next day (October 10), while Venus is also in opposition to Saturn. Just as important, Mars will enter Scorpio on October 12, lasting through November 24, likely an equally intense period since Scorpio is the natural home to both Mars and Pluto.
　Pluto and Scorpio share many psychological characteristics: intensity, relentlessness, exposures, and revelations, the urge to transform and change. And this can lead to violence. Additionally, both relate to the 4 D’s of the financial world: debt, deficits, downgrades, and defaults. Taxes are also included in its arsenal of possible changes in laws related to the economy.　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING OCTOBER 2, 2023 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

　So the next potential government shutdown is scheduled for November 17, right in time for the Sun/Mars conjunction in Scorpio discussed in last week’s column. We are getting a glimpse of what that will be all about now as 1) Mars prepares to enter Scorpio this week, October 11-12, and 2) just 1-3 days after the two co-rulers of Scorpio (Mars and Pluto) are highlighted with Mars square Pluto this Sunday, October 8, and Pluto turning direct on Tuesday, October 10. That’s a lot of Pluto-Scorpio energy, which means enemies will be digging their feet in and refusing to budge, even if it means a threat to their survival (probably figuratively speaking, but you never know with these signatures how brutal it can be).　・・・
　The Mars-Pluto-Scorpio combination is not the only cosmic drama unfolding. Venus will also move into opposition to Saturn on Tuesday, October 10. Our rule is simple: any market declining into a hard aspect between Venus and Saturn is a candidate for a strong rally. Historically, this has more correspondence to the end of a rally in stocks. But Venus actually has more relevance to grain and currency markets.　　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING OCTOBER 9, 2023 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

　They held their recent lows of October 4-6 and rallied smartly into Thursday, October 12. This was not surprising from a geocosmic point of view, for equity markets often rise into a Venus/Saturn opposition, +/- 4 trading days.　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING OCTOBER 16, 2023 © - 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.  ・・・　Shorter-term, the Sun will enter Scorpio on October 22, the same day Venus will make a favorable trine with Jupiter. This is followed by another trine, this time involving the Sun and Saturn, on October 24. These signatures may provide some short-term relief from the horrors and brutality of the past two weeks. But right afterwards, on October 28, Mars will start a series of new hard aspects, first with its opposition to Jupiter. These continue through November 25, a period which finds six Level 1 signatures unfolding (Level 1 signatures have the highest correlation to primary cycles in stock indices, +/- 10 trading days). This means geopolitical tensions that result in sharp swings in several financial markets. 　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING OCTOBER 23, 2023 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

Sun/Mars conjunction in Scorpio opposing both Jupiter and Uranus in Taurus

In the immediate future, we note that Mars is now in Libra, usually a time for stock markets to rally. But after that, Mars ingresses into Scorpio from October 12-November 24. In Scorpio, Mars will be conjoined by the Sun on November 18. Several years ago, I did a study on 10% or greater moves in the DJIA in an effort to find out which of the faster-moving transits are most often present. With an orb of 8 degrees, it was the Sun/Mars conjunction. This one will be especially pronounced because, during this 8-degree range, the Sun/Mars conjunction will also be in opposition to both Jupiter and Uranus (early November). These are all powerful Level 1 signatures. The implication? The sharpest decline of the year in U.S. equity prices is likely into – or immediately following – this period. It will be just in time for the “Pre-Presidential Election Year Trough” that is also due September-March preceding the U.S. presidential election.　　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING SEPTEMBER 4, 2023 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

　First, the Sun is applying to a conjunction with Mars on November 18, 2023.　・・・　 This is also the aspect we have been pointing to as a correlation of 8% or greater declines in many world stock indices within about six weeks of a crest. I don’t think we’ve seen the end of it yet.
　Second, Mars will enter Sagittarius and Capricorn on November 24, 2023, through to February 14, 2024. Several years ago, I published a study in the ISAR Journal illustrating the correlation of this planet/signs combination to larger-than-normal price swings in Crude Oil, further related to disputes, unrest, and wars in the Middle East involving Israel. This new round of conflict may not end until sometime during this period. But even beyond that, the opening chapters of the Forecast 2023 Book provided a correlation between wars involving the United States and Uranus entering Gemini (WWII), Neptune entering Aries (Civil War), and Pluto entering Aquarius (American Revolution). The last time each of these planets entered each of these signs, it corresponded to the three most important wars in the history of the U.S. All three of these conditions unfold between 2023 and 2025.　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING OCTOBER 16, 2023 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

　Despite last week’s sharp price activity in a variety of markets, the cosmos is just beginning its most intense and dangerous campaigns this week and lasting through November 25. It begins with the war god Mars in opposition to the expansive and often overconfident Jupiter on Saturday, October 28. If violence breaks out with Mars in Scorpio, there may be few boundaries to contain it. This is followed by the Sun moving into opposition with Jupiter on Friday, November 3, which is more over-the-top behavior with few controls. The next day, Saturday, November 4, finds Saturn turning direct. Saturn rules controls, but it also rules loss, so a pause may be reached where parties are allowed to step in and assess the damage and don’t like what they see. Each of these is a powerful Level 1 geocosmic signature – the strongest and most consistent related to reversals in financial markets.　　To this list, we can also add heliocentric Mercury, which will begin its transit of fiery Sagittarius from October 31 through November 11. This, too, correlates with sharp price moves in financial markets, especially Gold and currencies. The end of that period reveals yet another combustible geocosmic grouping as Sun and Mars conjoin in opposition to Uranus, November 11-18. Both the Sun and Mars then square Saturn November 23-25. That’s a lot of firepower coming up in November and could very well coincide with important cycle highs or lows in several financial markets.　　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING OCTOBER 30, 2023 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

　So, the Fed kept interest rates unchanged. This is not a surprise to readers of this column, which stated several months ago that rates would likely stabilize with Jupiter in Taurus, May 2023-May 2024.　・・・　The strength of this rally suggests that the low of one week ago, October 27-30 (MMA CRD – critical reversal zone), was the start of a new cycle greater than the primary cycle, at least in the DJIA. In terms of geocosmics, this also reflects the powerful oppositions to Jupiter from both the Sun and Mars last week, plus Venus trine Uranus. Each of these aspects unfolded from October 28-November 3. Whenever Mars, Jupiter, and Uranus are highlighted in the same week, big moves can suddenly erupt in stock indices.　・・・　Shorter-term, both the Sun/Jupiter opposition of November 3 and the Sun/Mars conjunction of November 18 have unusually high correlations to stock market cycles that are greater than primary types. In fact, this column has alerted readers that an 8% or greater decline would likely happen when the Sun/Mars conjunction was within an orb of 8°. This has now happened in many global indices with the lows of October 23-30. When the Sun entered Scorpio on October 23, Mars was sitting at 8° Scorpio. From its yearly high of 35,670 on August 1, the DJIA had dropped 9.4% to its low of October 27.　・・・　With so many hard aspects in effect October 28-November 25 that involve the Sun, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus, this is not a “safe” time in terms of personal or national security. It is also not a time when markets are likely to trade smoothly in one direction. The Sun/Jupiter opposition of Friday, November 3, and Saturn turning direct on Saturday, November 4, are both powerful Level 1 geocosmic signatures (the most consistent correlates to primary or greater cycles in U.S. stocks) at which reversals often occur. Also important will be the period of November 11-20 when the Sun and Mars will be in opposition to Uranus and also forming a T-square with the Mercury/Pluto square in the chart of the New York Stock Exchange (founded on May 17, 1792).　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING NOVEMBER 6, 2023 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)　

　The planetary outlook leans bearish for the month of November. Last week’s gains highlighted the bullish influence of both Venus and Jupiter as both planets were involved with multiple aspects. With the Venus influence now largely done, there is just the Nov 5 Jupiter-Neptune alignment left to consider. While some early week upside is possible from this 45-degree alignment, it will already be separating and thus weakening by Monday’s session. This suggests that last week’s bullish energy is unlikely to persist. Moreover, there are now two new bearish influences to consider. First, the Saturn station on Nov 4 will mark the start of a series of tense alignments that are likely to coincide with some selling: Venus (Nov 8), Mercury (Nov 10), Uranus (Nov 20) Sun (Nov 23), Mars (Nov 25) and Chiron (Nov 25). Second, Venus is set to transit through sidereal Virgo, its sign of debilitation, from Nov 3 until Nov 29. While Venus is normally a bullish planet, its once-a-year transit through Virgo is usually marked by a pullback. The size of this annual pullback varies depending on other factors, although it averages around 3-7% from the day of entry into Virgo until the interim low, usually in the last two weeks of the month-long transit…　MVA Investor Newsletter Preview - Week of 6 November 2023 - Modern Vedic Astrology

 　The stars suggest otherwise: no rate hikes are likely while Jupiter is in Taurus, which will remain the case until May 2024. After that, when Jupiter ingresses into Gemini, I think we will see new movement in the employment reports and interest rates.　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING NOVEMBER 13, 2023 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

　The good times might just keep rolling along in global stock markets as we enter the season of Sagittarius. That is, the Sun enters the sign of optimism and cheer on Wednesday, November 22, lasting through the winter solstice, which takes place on December 21. Usually, this is a favorable seasonal time for stocks. But there have been exceptions.　　There may be some headwinds this year as the Sun and Mars will now move from their opposition with Uranus to a square aspect with Saturn, which is posited in early Pisces, November 23-25. This is the Thanksgiving holiday in the U.S., and markets will be closed those two days but open on Friday, November 24, when Mars will also enter Sagittarius. With Mercury also in Sagittarius from November 10-December 1, there will likely be plenty of firepower to continue the stock market rally.　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING NOVEMBER 20, 2023 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

　The Sun is now in the optimistic (and sometimes overly optimistic) sign of Sagittarius as of November 22. As expected, equity prices moved higher. Mercury and Mars are also in Sagittarius, supporting the bullish influence of global and U.S. equity markets. But that will begin to shift when Mercury ingresses into the more skeptical sign of Capricorn, December 1-23. Along the way, Mercury will turn retrograde on December 13, lasting through January 1, which indicates end-of-the-year trading may be “tricky.” That’s why we call Mercury retrograde the ”trickster.” Prices will often move below support or above resistance, only to reverse right after giving a false buy or sell signal.
At the moment, the Sun and Mars in early Sagittarius are forming a square aspect to Saturn in early Pisces, November 23-25. These are moderately strong aspects, and given that the U.S. stock market typically runs up into the Thanksgiving holiday, a corrective retracement of the rally over the past four weeks would not be out of line. Plus, it is two weeks now since the Sun and Mars were in opposition to Uranus on November 11-13, which coincided with the upside breakout in U.S. equity indices on November 14. Typically, upside breakouts under a strong Uranus period will pause after 2-3 weeks.　　https://www.mmacycles.com/free-weekly-forecast/mma-free-weekly-column-for-the-week-beginning-november-27-2023/

　The Sun is now in the optimistic (and sometimes overly optimistic) sign of Sagittarius as of November 22. As expected, equity prices moved higher. Mercury and Mars are also in Sagittarius, supporting the bullish influence of global and U.S. equity markets. But that will begin to shift when Mercury ingresses into the more skeptical sign of Capricorn, December 1-23. Along the way, Mercury will turn retrograde on December 13, lasting through January 1, which indicates end-of-the-year trading may be “tricky.” That’s why we call Mercury retrograde the ”trickster.” Prices will often move below support or above resistance, only to reverse right after giving a false buy or sell signal.　・・・
　Looking further ahead, we note a series of strong geocosmic signatures related to market reversals arriving December 6 (Neptune direct) through December 21 (Venus opposition to Uranus). This might be a most volatile time with larger than normal price swings, especially given that it will also occur nearby to Mercury turning retrograde (the “trickster”), which also tends to coincide with large price swings　　https://www.mmacycles.com/free-weekly-forecast/mma-free-weekly-column-for-the-week-beginning-november-27-2023/

　There are other geocosmic signatures arising this week that may lead to a correction of the trend (but not a reversal of the primary trend). On Sunday, December 3, Venus (money and credit) will square Pluto (debt) one day before Venus (credit and money) enters Scorpio (ruled by Pluto and thus the sign of debt). This could also signal a reversal in markets ruled by Venus and Pluto, such as Soybeans, Treasuries, and Currencies.　・・・　Then there is the issue of Neptune turning retrograde on December 6 next week. Now, the secret and hidden agendas are out, but then comes another cover-up. This week is a challenge for honesty and truth. In terms of market psychology, it may be one of those “buy the rumor, sell the facts” (or vice-versa) issues driving prices. Be careful of rumors or deceptive behavior and get the facts and truth. In terms of market behavior, watch Crude Oil for reversals. This atmosphere of uncertainty or wishful thinking may persist into December 21. In fact, market prices may act confused and uncertain as the Sun will also square Neptune on December 17, right after Mercury turns retrograde on December 13.　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING DECEMBER 4, 2023 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

　It might, however, go out with a whiplash or two as Mercury begins its retrograde cycle (aka “the Trickster”) this week on December 13, which will last through January 2. Typically, financial markets will reverse within four trading days of Mercury retrograde. If not, then they can reverse within two trading days of its mid-cycle point, which would be December 23, a weekend.　・・・　We also note five planetary aspects or stations that take place between December 6 and 21 have high correlations to sudden reversals or whipsaws. That’s a lot, and with the Trickster in its glory, traders are advised to be on the alert for sudden, sharp price movements even though the holiday season is usually jolly and steady.　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING DECEMBER 11, 2023 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

　We are currently in the midst of four geocosmic signatures between December 6-21 that also have historically high correlations to sudden and sharp reversals within four trading days. But Mercury retrograde can sometimes stymie （阻止する）those behaviors. If there is no major or greater cycle reversal within four trading days of Mercury turning retrograde (December 13), then instead of reversing, the current trend will usually continue into the midpoint of the Trickster’s cycle, which will be December 23, which is a weekend. The point is that one should be prepared for a sharp reversal now, before December 20. If not, then anticipate the reversal within two trading days of December 23.　　・・・　　Besides Mercury retrograde, the Sun will also form a closing square to Neptune on Sunday, December 17 and Venus will be in opposition to Uranus on December 21. ・・・The second one, Venus opposition Uranus, is important to interest rate sensitive markets such as Treasuries and Currencies. It also has a strong correspondence to reversals in the stock market, but requires an orb of up to 10 trading days, although usually it commences within only four trading days.　　・・・　　Nevertheless, markets are vulnerable now to sudden but brief and sharp changes this week unless the combination of Mercury retrograde and the approaching holiday season results in subdued volume and market volatility, or if the Venus/Uranus opposition is instead going to correlate with an escalation of the upside breakout in stocks to more new all-time highs by year-end. Normally that would not be the case with the combination of Mercury retrograde and these aspects in effect through December 21. But a continuation of the rally to new highs can’t be ruled out either because Jupiter will be highlighted in the last week of the year. It will be in a trine aspect to the Sun on December 27, then turn stationary direct on December 31. That is generally a hopeful signature for the future. People tend to be optimistic then, so shorting the market before the end of the month should be approached with much caution. It may be wiser to watch for sharp 1-4 day declines as buying opportunities.　　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING DECEMBER 18, 2023 © - Merriman Market Analyst (mmacycles.com)

　December 23, which could coincide with reversals in some financial markets that did not reverse near the retrograde date itself of December 13.　・・・・　Additionally, Venus is in opposition to Uranus as of December 21, which is another reversal signal +/- 4 trading days. And, as stated last week, “・・・” The New Year will begin with Venus square Saturn on January 1, the day before the “Trickster” goes direct again. One of the basic rules is ”Any market declining into a hard Venus/Saturn aspect is a candidate for a buy.　MMA FREE WEEKLY COLUMN FOR THE WEEK BEGINNING DECEMBER 25, 2023 © - 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/
