Bitcoin has a genesis block. Apple has a first day of trading. We cast the chart of that day, follow Jupiter and Saturn around it, and check the result against the real price. Hits and misses, both shown.

The rule, written before the test
Financial astrologers read a company like a person: its first day of trading is its birth. Ray Merriman, on The Astrology Podcast (episode 76), gives the rule most of them share: Saturn in a hard aspect to the chart goes with bad news, Jupiter with good news.
We turned it into something a computer can check. A Saturn window opens when Saturn comes within 2° of a conjunction, a square or an opposition to the asset's Sun or Jupiter. A Jupiter window opens when Jupiter comes within 2° of a conjunction, a sextile or a trine to the same two points.
Then we look at the price at the start and at the end of each window. And we compare with chance: every stretch of the same length in that asset's history. A market that rises most of the time makes any forecast of a rise look good, so the comparison is the number that counts.
Planet positions come from our own ephemeris (Swiss Ephemeris). Prices are weekly closes from a public price history.
Questions about financial astrology
What is financial astrology?
It reads the chart of a market, a company or a currency the way natal astrology reads a person's chart. The birth is the first day of trading or, for a cryptocurrency, the genesis block.
Can astrology predict the stock market?
This page tests it instead of promising it. One written rule, 345 windows, and the count of hits and misses next to what chance gives. Read the scoreboard and judge for yourself.
Why Jupiter and Saturn?
They are the two slow planets of traditional astrology. Jupiter takes 12 years to go around a chart, Saturn 29 years. Their aspects last for weeks, long enough to compare with a price.
Is this financial advice?
No. It is research on timing, shown with its misses. Never invest money on the basis of this page.
