Opening Bell - Sept. 22, 2008

Wish I had looked at this yesterday. The Chart for the Opening Bell for today's market.

The Sun is at 30 Virgo. That's an Aries Point (1 Libra). The Sun is apex to a t-square to the Moon at 5 Cancer which opposes Pluto at 29 Sagittarius. That's another Aries Point (1 Capricorn). They are in the Resources Houses. Actually the Moon is in the 9th House but very close to the 8th House. The Moon is out-of-bounds which could trigger just about anything emotional and related to security. The Sun and the Moon are the Vital Forces of the Chart along with the Rising Sign. Pluto rules the Rising Sign. All 3 are in harsh aspect with each other in the Resources Houses.

My computer was attacked by spyware this morning, no wonder. I suspect that this will be a lucrative time for Hackers to pick up personal information about people's accounts as they try to dump stocks. Try not to pay for anything with a credit card. Tomorrow the Sun will be right on 1 Libra and its only major aspect will be to Pluto. It will also be making a quindecile to Chiron.

On what might be a bright side, Sagittarius is now on the 2d House cusp and that might bring a bit more optimtimism. It might bring higher wisdom about the reality or it might add to the hysteria element or it might bring optimism. Sadge's ruler Jupiter is still in the 3d House of communications. So there are still talks going on. Venus conjunct the Ascendant brings negotiations. Pluto is in sextile to her and the Ascendant which is a positive influence. I don't know if the Fed will announce anything today. Tomorrow as the elements hit the Aries Points the real reaction may come.

Still beneficial, Jupiter is trining Saturn. But, Saturn is within orb of opposition to Uranus now (computer and internet problems). They are placed in H11 (Saturn in Virgo) and H5 (Uranus in Pisces).

2 Scorpio Rises and Venus is still in conjunction at 29 Scorpio. Venus-Mercury-Mars are still up in the 12th house of undoing trining the NN-Neptune-Chiron down in the 4th House (Security, Real Estate, Foundations, Denial).

Tomorrow the Opening Bell Moon will be at 19 Cancer in H9. It will be opposing Jupiter in the 3d and squaring Mercury-Mars at 23 Libra in H12. That doesn't sound like good news to me. The Moon will also be in a Yod pattern. There's a Moon-Saturn sextile from H9 to H11 that is inconjunct on either side to apex NN in H4. Yods are odd patterns. They shows elements that don't work together naturally and must find a way of living out of balance together. Some of the more subtle problems related to the financial system may have to be accepted.
