In the Pocket - Today's Stock Market

Hey, howabout today's Stock Market? Ey-y-y-y-y? I never miss an opportunity to panic my brains out so I was falling off my chair with this one. Good chart to check out for Volatility Signatures. Dropped 300 points then went up 150 points, then dropped, then I flat-lined and turned off all media, then closed 300 points up on the day. Who needs roller coaster rides when we've got Ben Bernanke running the Federal Reserve? Can we ticket him for a DUI or something. I swear I'm ready to puke.

The Devil's Ride, Today's Stock Market

Jan. 23, 2008, opening bell 9:30am New York NY

Sun 3 Aquarius; ASC 23 Pisces; Moon 17 Leo; MC 27 Sagittarius; NN 28 Aquarius

Many factors pointing to Volatility. I don't even know where Saturn was in this chart. The day ended with it in the 4th House.

As it generally is, the Sun is in the 11th House at opening of the Stock Market. That's a resource house. The U.S. likes to do business by wishing things into action and through silly group activities like banging on bells. Keeps things light. The Leo Moon is just about to pass into the opposing 5th House, also a Resource House. Risk, Will, Drama.

The Venus-Pluto conjunction on the last degree of Sagittarius is conjunct the Sagittarius Midheaven. That's volatile. Maybe Bernanke threatened someone at Gun Point. Maybe Dick Cheney really did shoot!. Remember what I said about Venus-Pluto singer Corinne Bailey Rae singing about how her love is like "Little Volcanoes" erupting? Sets the tone for this day. Jupiter is in Capricorn also up in the 10th house. It looks like the Corporations may have finally bought back some of their stocks the way they've been promising. I'm researching how to look for "Corporate Buy-Backs."

At opening the Ascendant is at 23 Pisces Rising with Ruler Neptune in the 12th House. There's a load a "Fairy Godmother" type planets and what-not in the 12th House at this point. Neptune is conjunct Mercury (Markets) at 22 Aquarius to the degree. And Chiron is there. And the North Node is there. And Uranus is there just having past over the Ascendant. And people are feeling sorrowful but they don't really know why or what to do about it.

Uranus likes to gather a group together so it can rebel. It's very strong in this chart because both it and the Sun are unaspected by Ptolomaic aspect. They are however linked to each other through a semi-sextile which really just reemphasizes the 11th-5th House position of Sun and Moon. Sun and Uranus like to work together. Resources aren't just about the money. They are about the ability to play with the money, take risks with the money, and socialize over the money and use to materialize one's hopes and dreams.

By the end of the day, the Moon will be in the 2d House (Banks) and the Sun will be in the 7th House. Moon in Leo is generous so the CEO's finally decided to give it up and buy some stock. The Moon is widely opposing Mercury-Neptune-Chiron and by the close of the Market will be directly opposing Mercury-Neptune from the 2d House.

The Charts show that the Turnaround came right between 1:30 and 2:00pm. The CEOs had apparently all come back from Lunch. Bernanke had bought them martinis. At 1:30 19 Gemini was Rising. Bernanke's Sun was opposing. The Chart Sun for 1:30 was within degrees of passing backward into the 8th House of Investments where it spent the next 2 hours bottom fishing along with the CEOs. All the Angles were loaded. On the MC-IC bases Mercury-Neptune-MC was opposing Moon-IC. And Mars was in the 1st house opposite Venus-Pluto-Jupiter in the 7th.
Does Neptune on the MC bring a Sugar Daddy? Boy, it's about to hit my MC so I'll be sure to watch for that one. I've heard nothing good about it so far.

By the Close of Business everyone was grinning like a bunch of well, lunatics. Bernanke and Dick Cheney put away their guns. And no surprise, 22 Cancer was Rising and the ruler, Moon, ruler of Lunatics, was in the 2d House of Money.
