Summary for September

Stocks
The first couple of weeks appear relatively quiet on the Astro front. This does not mean we won’t get market moves but the extreme volatility we’ve seen in August should calm down, at least until Sept 16. The second half of September looks far more volatile.

Dates we are watching.

Sept 6 or 7 may get a little bounce recovering from last weeks down move and the President will be speaking so the news outlets will be spinning at high speed depending on which party they support. The next FED moves should be in the news as well or at least the main topic of discussion amongst traders unless European debt issues come to center stage.

Sept 16 Significant Astros are back with Pluto turning direct and Venus squaring Hades then Venus opposing Uranus (with the Moon making secondary aspects) and then Venus squaring Pluto. Yes the Uranus / Pluto square is back. We may see another move down during this time.

This square is slowly separating and it’s effects will lesson over the next few months. Nevertheless it will be back in 2012 and will be an exact square 7 times from 2012 through 2015.

Sept 27 This is a New Moon and a Super Moon, that is perigee, or closest pass to earth for this orbit. The Sun and Moon therefore are in the early cardinal sign of Libra and both are in a T square with Uranus and Pluto. Opposition to Uranus and square Pluto. Mercury is also conjuncting this Super Moon and Mars is in Sextile. This could be quite an explosive situation. With Pluto involved it could be the European debt situation or currency issues. There are a number of other potent aspects in this time frame but the above should be enough to give you the idea that this is an important time period.

It’s possible this time period is close to a bottom in stocks as I see the month of September as flat to down. In the back of mind I've been looking for a rise in the US buck which would bring down the price of most commodities including Gold, Silver and Crude. For this to happen either the Euro must take it big hit or some nasty world event. I wait and am monitoring these events.

All dates +- 3 trading days (tds).

Overall I'm expecting September to be down with a reversal in the last week or first week in October then up into year end, then down.

My longer term outlook may change and it may change quickly but without a plan, as they say, any path will do. A boss I had many years ago gave me some great business advice. That is, in business, if you don't write it down it didn't happen. One reason I write it down.

Gold
Gold obviously continues its advance. There is a signature on Sept 16, Pluto turning direct which use to have a good correlation to Gold turns. This has not worked well over the last two years. This time we have Venus translating the Uranus / Pluto square within days of Pluto station. This may be a good time for a turn. This is a watch and wait situation.

The following chart shows the Venus Uranus opposition coming up (red line with 2 arrows). It also shows how Gold has peaked near the Venus Uranus trine and Venus Neptune square. They are circled in blue. This comes up again Oct 31 - Nov 3, 2011.











Silver
Back to the Silver chart from previous posts. Silver has made it up to the 61.8% retracement of the move down from late April to early May. If it advance from here I would expect it to follow the heliocentric Venus line further up. Like Gold, overdue for a pull back.












Oil
Looking at crude on a short term time frame it has often made short term crests around the New Moon. Blue circle on the following chart while the Full Moon is red. This has not been consistent but worth watching. The next Full Moon is Sept 12 and the next New Moon is Sept 27. As mentioned above the 27th is a Super Moon and has a number of very volatile aspects.











Looking at a longer term chart crude is due for a 17 month trough in the late Oct early Nov time frame. Assuming we have no significant mid east problems Oil should be making a low of significance in that time frame.











As stated in previous posts please allow 3 trading days around any date given in this blog unless otherwise noted.

Regards, and thanks for the positive comments.
