"The Taurus New Moon occurs May 5, 2008 at 11:55 pm EDT - This New Moon is a Super Moon, meaning that the Moon is at Perigee or closest to the earth. Usually this means large earthquakes and exploding volcanoes around the ring of fire!...

Taurus New Moon and the theme is Agriculture ..."

The fireball of astrological energy building up over the past two weeks finallyexploded to the upside late last week, propelling the breakout in major world stock markets above key resistance levels.

The odds now favour the launch of a new Bull market. I know, dear reader, your patience has been tested beyond frustration as we waited for the fables to unfold according to the interpretations of your correspondent...

Massive internal pressure continues to build in stock indices worldwide as the astrological energy patterns compress within a tight time frame over the next two weeks.

Key Asian markets began breaking out to the upside last week as the Western indices exerted growing pressure against the horizontal and downtrend resistance levels defined by their plunges out of last year’s High marks. As we enter another highly-charged week, most indices continue to bump against the overhead resistance levels – while the weekly charts are showing distinct signs of a strong Bullish breakout. The explosive energy patterns which were primed last week with the Mars trine to Uranus, followed by Venus in a T-square pattern with Mars and Jupiter gain even more dynamite immediately ahead.

A new Bull run – or just another bull trap? That’s the question … and the answer is it’s probably a little of both.

The astrological energy immediately ahead suggests the rally which began last week has further to run, despite the fact most world stock indices are now bumping their heads against strong resistance.

Friday's price collapse on New York stock indices, caused by disappointing earnings and outlook from GE, appears to have pushed markets worldwide into a weak position. Weak Fridays tend to lead to weak Mondays - and last week's action has the majority of market technicians now calling for a drop in prices to retest the bottom of the horizontal band which has acted as a floor since January... Astrologically, last week began with Venus moving into Aries and squaring Pluto and by Thursday, the Sun squared Jupiter and Mercury squared Mars. I indicated last weekend that “all three suggest sudden moves up and down”...

While I was researching Bear Sterns I looked at Goldman Sachs' chart, and as I was typing along, Abby Joseph Cohen came on CNBC today (March 20, 2008). Experience suggests that a company will send out a top girl followed in a few weeks by the CEO to reassure the investing public. Is this a corporate Red Flag?

So I revisited the charts...

Spring Equinox (an overview of the three months ahead) The Spring Equinox occurs on March 20 2008 at 1:49 am EDT. The chart is set for Washington D.C. There will be a Super New Moon May 5 and June 3, therefore, earthquakes can be very destructive especially along the USA West Coast.Saturn turns direct May 3 and Jupiter turns retrograde May 9. The accounting department will send the salesmen on vacation. Mercury retrograde begins May 26 and ends June 18, if you buy something that costs more than $10 expect it will self destruct.

First let's describe the reality from the astrology point of view. The whole recession scenario started with Jupiter conjunct Pluto on December 10th, 2007 then Jupiter moved into Capricorn on the same day as Saturn turned retrograde December 20th. As explained in The Textbook for Financial Astrology there are some 20 aphorisms in financial astrology and Jupiter changing signs is one...

On Monday, January 21, 2008 at 4:14 am EST, we get the first of the three Jupiter trine Saturn aspects occurring between the Earth signs, Capricorn and Virgo.  I dealt with the symbolism of this at some length last week, because of the eons-old link of these two planets in accurately depicting business cycles.

For the first time since September, 1999, a Bear sell signal has been thrown up by new lower Lows being recorded in both the Dow Industrials and the Dow Transports. Back in October, I introduced the basic concepts of classic Dow Theory...

Jupiter will transit Capricorn from December 19, 2007-January 7, 2009 his previous transits of Capricorn were January 1996-1997 and January 1984 - February 1985, and September 1972-February 1973. Jupiter expands the things ruled by the sign that it transits. All of this is fine until you think about it. An abundant supply means that the price will be less. Example: Apples during harvest season are cheaper than they are six months later....

The dollar has made headlines since October 1, 2007. Its value relative to the Euro and the Yen has decreased steadily.  Even the Chinese have suggested that they might reconsider pegging their currency, Yuan, to the value of the dollar...

"Dow Theory states that price rises in the industrials – the DJI – must be accompanied by similar price rises in the transportation index – the DJT – for any rallies in the overall stock market to be sustainable.."

"When we know a stock has some good transits coming up over the next few months – or belongs to a sector where it can be expected to rise because of the impact of mundane Jupiter or Saturn, according to the principles laid out in Kaye Shinker’s Textbook for Financial Astrology– we can use technical analysis to help find a profitable Buy point..."

"Mercury went Direct July 9th at 10:15 pm EDT, and will remain in it's shadow until it reaches the degree it stationed Rx, on June 15th at 11.36° of Cancer. I know you all love the Mercury Rx effect and this time it was absolutely precise! On June 15 Mercury went Retrograde..."

"The solstice is a very important holiday in the Northern Hemisphere since it is the longest day of the year.  In the Southern Hemisphere it is the shortest day of the year.  The Sun enters the zodiac sign of Cancer at 2:06 pm EDT June 21, 2007.

Message from ET
(intercepted and translated by Kaye Shinker) Sept 2006

"This E mail is to correct the directions I sent March 12. 1930 (earth calendar) I mentioned that after passing the star Sirius you would encounter a solar system around a star known as SUN. I said that you would see a large posted sign with the letters PLUTO. It seems that the cost of maintaining the sign has caused the earthlings known as Astronomers to remove it..."

Dear Markay,
I bought your course from the internet recently. I have skimmed the material and I was very surprised to see that you were using jupiter to natal transits to both the IPO and incorporation dates. Alphee Lavoee states that Incorporation dates don't work. Bill Meridian uses IPO dates and has published a whole book on IPO dates. I also use the IPO dates via a proprietary model. The point I'm trying to make is, you can't have 2 birthdates for a stock, just like you can't have 2 birthdates for a person. Doing this breaks on of the basic rules of astrology. So why are you using both dates? Jbadura

Dear Markay, This is more a philosophical question, I guess - for long-term investing, like an IRA, what would you look for? I haven't studied the ETFs you had picked - the Australian & Emerging Growth - but that seemed like a possibility.

Dear Markay,"Dear Markay,
In Kaye's Dow Predictions, she suggested Bill Meridian got it wrong in his July 3, 1884, chart for the DJI and she believes May 26, 1896, is the correct one. Which chart are we to use? Randall
November 2007

Dear Markay, "You have stated that Jupiter will increase demand for products in the sectors ruled by Aries and Libra. Do you think the upcoming square to Aries from Jupiter in Capricorn could point to not just a recovery of the resources sector (iron ore etc), but perhaps a renewed vigor?" Randall

Q. Dear Markay, Some people say the bubble in China will burst this year (I'm one of them), others say their economy will continue expanding until next year due to the Olympics. Is there an astrological explanation?

...One more question: is it better to buy/make an investment/start a business or something when Jupiter is Rx or Venus is Rx? I know that ideally both should be direct, but when having to choose one or the other direct, which one is better to be direct?
Thanks,
May 2007

Q. Dear Markay, "Most IPO's have the Sun in the 11th house of their chart because the exchanges open at 9:30 am Eastern Time. When starting a small business is it wise to have the Sun in the 11th?"
