“Financial astrology” has a rich history. In the early part of the last century, famous economic researcher, Lt. Commander David Williams scored an 80 percent accuracy rating in predicting the ups and downs of the US economy in his magazine column. While some scoff at investment astrology, Williams and many others pioneered early scientific research. Many others continued to unfold hidden dimensions in the relationship between gecosmic cycles and investor psychology and business cycles . Gann, one of the top traders of the 20th century, was known to have used astrology and to have calculated exact price movements in correlation with planetary movements. He is said to have traveled to India and studied ancient methods from ancient tea trading wheels. His private notes are filled with astrological glyphs. Morgan, the founder of the Morgan Bank, was fond of saying that millionaires do not use astrology, billionaires do. He had a private astrologer, Evageline Adams, who helped him tremendously. The essence of cycles is astrology: the 365-day cycle of the earth going around the sun; the 29-day cycle of the moon going around the earth; and all the inter-connective cycles of all the planets. Barry Rosen has purchased books from the Evageline Adams library on financial astrology. Financial Astrology Scientists for years have understood the relationship between full moons and the effects of emotional and psychological behavior on mental patients. Given that the markets are very emotional and psychological, it is no surprise that the planetary cycles have an effect on market behavior. Financial astrology is rather mathematical as the angular relationships between major planets create emotional and psychological peaks and valleys. Gann was familiar with key stress points at 90, 120, 144, 180 and 270 degrees and how markets peaked and bottom as the planets moved to these emotional nadirs and peaks creating peaks and valleys in investor optimism and pessimism. For example, a 120 angle between Jupiter and Venus, two inflationary and bullish planets will often lead to a CRB high or stock market high about 1 day before the exact moment of their exact trine.
