Sun enters Aries Tuesday, March 19, 2024 at 11:06 PM Eastern Time calculated with LUNA Astrology Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Below are this week’s above tropical chart planetary influences:
The Sun and Neptune link up in peace-loving Pisces Sunday to Monday for a strong focus on big dreams. Super inspiration is likely for anything you now wish to manifest. That hopeful vibe is enhanced by another pairing between Mercury conjunct with the North Node on Monday. These overlapping transits along with mostly positive Moon alignments suggest heavy trading with markets moving higher early this week. On Tuesday, a potentially dramatic Leo Moon opposes Pluto. Heightened emotions needing release, power struggles, or key achievements are noted. The Sun enters Aries late Tuesday night, and voila! Spring has sprung! For Wednesday, talk and trade planet Mercury conjoins inflation indicator planetoid Chiron in fire sign Aries. Perfectly coinciding, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell will make his usual announcement offering guidance after the FOMC meeting. Prepare for media and investor discussions about inflation to be hot, hot, hot! The outcome: all talk but no Fed action is probable. Late Wednesday night the fiery Leo Moon square to Jupiter in money-minded Taurus can add a challenge or test for markets. Inflation has been sticky in various sectors. That’s a huge problem for the Fed. Thursday ushers in various complex planetary patterns. Opportunities for transforming our goals or portfolios via independent initiatives that lean toward technology and innovation are enhanced as the Sun in Aries is in a 60° sextile angle to Pluto in Aquarius. This also infers more volatility is possible for the NASDAQ rather than the NYSE. Additionally, Venus meets Saturn at 12° Pisces. (Do you have any natal planets at or near this degree? I do! My Moon and 7th house cusp!) Money, relationships, and all things beauty or fashion oriented take a serious tone. It’s time to turn your big dreams from Sunday into reality. Advice: Saturn often feels like a limitation or restriction unless you use the energy constructively. An approaching Moon – Mars opposition increases volatile vibrations. The key to freedom is discipline, however, Saturn in Pisces is fluid and generally not a fan of structure. Friday brings a critical detailed eye for all work and stock picking as the Moon enters Virgo. Mars entering Pisces at 7:47 PM Eastern Time implies taking action toward greater visions are possible as we reach the Libra Lunar Eclipse next week. Plus, opportunities are imminent as next Sunday on March 24th, money planet Venus sextiles wealth planet Jupiter for potential financial increase. Expect emotions and instability to rise by the week’s end as we get closer to a full moon lunar eclipse peak. Wishing everyone a great week! © 2024 Trudy Carol p.s.

March 10, 2024 New Moon at 20° Pisces 5:00 AM New York, NY, USA Happy New Moon in Pisces! This week’s theme is The Beatles song, “Can’t Buy Me Love.” Except for Moon transits, there’s little planetary action this Monday to Friday. A Pisces New Moon early Sunday, March 10, suggests a vibe of meandering imagination, indecision, or worse yet, confusion may permeate this week. Our most insightful day seems to be Sunday when thought leader Mercury seeks a rebirth of Pluto power. Consider this paired influence as inspired mind control aiming toward future initiatives for best outcomes. Money (and love) planet Venus cruises through visionary Pisces on Monday until April 5. This infers potential fear or a dream-like fog hovers over the banking sector. Coincidentally, the Federal Reserve’s Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP) is set to end on Monday as well. Transiting Sun conjoins the natal NYSE Midheaven chart status point Monday to Tuesday. This is typically a positive U.S. stock market indicator per astrologer and author Louise McWhirter. It’s a first quarter Moon all week, which is also considered a favorable cycle for markets. Friday, March 15, is a triple witching day: “the simultaneous expiration of stock options, stock index futures, and stock index options contracts” (per Investopedia.com). My advice: plan for increased volume and trading volatility Wednesday to Friday. p.s. Do you like the above beautifully design-driven LUNA astrology software?

My overall forecast for November is that we’ll see much of the same recent bearish action in the markets. From a mundane perspective there’s intense warrior energy with the Sun and Mars both traversing and meeting up in Mars ruled zodiac sign Scorpio. Unfortunately, as we’ve recently seen, this does not bode well for toxic matters of violence and war. CEO and CIO of ARK Invest Cathie Wood has said we’re in a rolling recession, however I wouldn’t call this a recession quite yet (but wait, one is coming). I think we’re in an extended rolling bear market wave, terminology used by Charles Schwab Managing Director and Chief Investment Strategist Liz Ann Sonders. I noticed CNN reporters Krystal Hur and Bryan Mena consider this stock market “wobbly”. I find this anecdotal as we’re now under a (Nodal) Moon Wobble until November 30. https://www.cnn.com/2023/10/27/economy/consumer-sentiment-october-final/index.html Like Fed Chair Powell said earlier this year in Jackson Hole, “We are navigating by the stars under cloudy skies.” The current stock market rollercoaster ride should be expected based on Louise McWhirter’s nodal cycle which depicts a business cycle bottom that will take some more years to fully manifest. This slump appears starting to unfold with the recent interest rate hikes. I’ll preface November with how deepened conflicts of war and wounding will be accented as early as Oct. 31 from Mars quincunx Chiron exact on Sunday, Nov. 5. All times are Eastern for U.S. market index delineations. Nov. 1 The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting and Fed Chairman Powell’s announcement coincides with Mercury quincunx Chiron. This suggests a blind spot for trading and investing where we’re wounded and/or news, communications, and information is murky. We don’t have all the true facts let alone the answers. Nov. 2 – 3 Along with mostly harmonious Moon transits, larger than life planets (Sun opposite Jupiter) plus money (Venus) versus dreams (Neptune) may create grandiose conduct for a wishful turning point or bring fearful, bearish exaggeration. Nov. 4 – 5 Stock index futures this weekend may be unsettling. Saturn turns direct at 0° Pisces which is like a new beginning for structures of the collective. Mercury opposes Uranus inferring volatile trading, especially for tech and cryptos. Jupiter semi-square Neptune implies challenges for larger-than-life dreams. Nov. 6 Easier flow and positive indices are possible although the Moon opposite Saturn exact at 3:42 p.m. may negate the upside with stern investor emotions that tend to limit and constrict momentum. Nov. 8 There are many mixed sky messages today with super volatile trading likely. A blind spot to money (Venus) in Libra forms an uncomfortable quincunx to Saturn. Moon opposite Neptune exact at 5:20 p.m. may arouse anxiety and fear near the end of U.S. trading. Mercury sextile Pluto is opportunistic for transformational transactions such as shorting stocks. Sun quincunx Chiron conjectures Fed or political news may unsettle markets. Most importantly, we should be on the lookout for sudden shocks from the upcoming Mars opposite Uranus. Nov. 9 – 11 Looming and tough back-to-back planetary transits infer we want markets to break out but they’ll likely break down. Trading will be tested. Mercury square Saturn may reduce positive thoughts for bulls and probably make bears even more bearish. Mars opposite Uranus brings surprises, especially in technology and for mundane earth matters. Near hard aspects between Mars and Uranus often result in earthquakes or other rattling from nature. Nov. 13 A New Moon in Scorpio combined with Sun opposite Uranus in Taurus could reach a critical climax and/or be the straw that breaks the camel’s back. I expect extreme volatility. The financial sector, cryptos, and automotive industry might be severely jolted by this influence. If we suddenly hear positive news, markets can bounce with a roar. On the flip side, any negative news should produce a strong slide. Nov. 14 Finally, here’s a chance for some much-needed beneficial vibes and a day of optimistic momentum. Trade-happy Moon transits are enhanced by an emerging Mercury-Venus sextile. A hopeful Mars-Neptune trine urges us to reach beyond current realities. A momentum shift may feel underway, but it may not last long. Don’t be fooled by bulls rushing out of the gate. Nov. 15 This looks like another tricky trading day. Indexes may end mixed as often happens during quincunx alignments and there are 3 stacking up: Moon quincunx Uranus, plus both Mercury and Venus quincunx Jupiter. Investor sentiment is challenged by the Moon square Neptune. However, a lingering Mercury sextile Venus and upcoming optimism from Mars and Sun trine Neptune may win the day. No clear winner here other than confusion. Nov. 16 – 18 This could mark a turning point for markets but we’re not fully out of the woods yet. Harmonious Moon transits suggest positive investor emotions. Hope springs eternal along with actions to back up the glow as Mars and Sun trine Neptune. The Sun conjoining Mars exact on Saturday at 12:42 a.m. suggests an entirely new beginning for actions. But wait! In the sign of Scorpio, this could be transformational for debt and anything underground, like dirty little secrets waiting to be revealed. Both Sun and Mars are also trigger planets so watch any news carefully for clues as to what the future holds. Nov. 20 A trading week of rapid planetary movements begins with a potential for worried investor emotions from Moon conjunct Saturn in Pisces, exact at 10:45 a.m. Morning doubts likely subside quickly. Prior transformations continue when a Sun and Mars sextile to Pluto alert us to alter opportunities. (We’ll especially see this for the Dow Jones.) Inflation and other news may seem promising from Mercury trine Chiron. One huge caveat for this week: power plays from governments or corporations may rattle markets and provoke anger which might be bearish for markets. A tense Mars square Saturn position is building and will peak on Saturday over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. Nov. 21 Further trade testing with a mood switch is likely as the Moon squares Mercury in mutable signs. Continuing yesterday’s prospects, the Mars sextile Pluto alignment perfects at 8:18 p.m. We may see increased volatility in tech, autos and cryptos today from the Moon-Uranus sextile exact at 8:35 p.m. Make-or-break financial news or statistical data about inflation could also play a role as Venus approaches Chiron in opposition. Nov. 22 Adventure and daring await as the Sun enters Sagittarius. This lifts us out of any leftover doldrums and could indeed liven markets toward the upside. The archer energy shoots from the hip and likes to move fast. Moon aspects support this energy however we still have Venus opposite Chiron while Sun square Saturn waits in the wings. Better to hold your horses before galloping and quickly getting too far away. Nov. 23 U.S. markets are closed for Thanksgiving Day. This break gives us time for a needed reality check as suggested by the Sun and upcoming Mars square Saturn transits. Meditate and try not to overdo food and drink. You may feel frustrated or caught between a rock and a hard place since Mars wants to go whole hog but meets strict Saturn resistance. Martial arts concentration is wise. From the Kung Fu TV series, “Patience, young grasshopper” is an advised quote. Seek love and joy with family and friends and remember sometimes laughter truly is the best medicine. Nov. 24 Mars entering expansive Sagittarius at 5:15 a.m. infers this “Black Friday” is a “shop till you drop” kind of day. This includes stock purchases as well as retail sales. Investors might start early since this gangbuster energy is cut short when U.S. markets close at 1:00 p.m. The Moon square to Pluto at 12:40 p.m. adds a void-of-course dynamism that may indicate whatever you buy afterward will need to be readdressed. Under this sky it’s possible retailers will soon find this most important shopping day of the year ultimately lacking dazzle after accounting for customer returns. Nov. 26 Since Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies trade 24/7, even though it’s Sunday we may see volatility and confused “cryptonites” today as Venus (money) quincunx Uranus (cryptos). Nov. 27 Trading and Cyber Monday shopping are brought to light under a Full Moon in Gemini. We’ll learn just how much online spending plays a role in purchasing power versus traditional brick-and-mortar retail in 2023. Mercury square Neptune implies commercial transactions and investors alike are challenged to achieve their boundless visions for buying products on sale. Nov. 29 – 30 Hopes and expansive desires may be quelled with blind spot quincunx energy between the Sun-Jupiter and Venus-Neptune. Additionally, Venus conjoins the South Node indicating a financial release of sorts. Thursday afternoon looks lively with potential explosiveness from the Moon sextile Uranus. With the planet of shock and awe, it’s hard to know if the last trading day of the month will end up or down, but tech and cryptos could dive or fly wild. You’ll be glad to know that November concludes the harshest planetary line ups for 2023. Looking ahead, I think markets will start to lift somewhat in December. But that doesn’t mean we’re now going to see a new long bull run. I believe we’re in a rolling bear market. We’ll need to ride fluctuating waves like surfers with sturdy feet for grounding aiming safely to shore. p.s. Sending prayers for peace and beneficial outcomes to all those suffering around the globe during these difficult times.
