Investing By the Stars: Using Astrology in the Financial Markets

Even financier J. P. Morgan kept an astrologer on staff – and scores of today’s analysts, brokers, and traders quietly rely on planetary data to help guide their investment decisions. If you’re curious about how astrology and investing mix, Investing by the Stars will tell you all about it. Your guide is prominent financial astrologer Henry Weingarten, managing director of the Astrologers Fund and predictor of such market benchmarks as the 1990 Tokyo stock market crash and the start of the Persian Gulf War. Here he helps readers learn what many bigtime money managers already know: that a little celestial knowledge can go a long way towards accurately timing the market … charting economic cycles and financial trends … foreseeing market psychology … and predicting global events that can devour your profits or double them overnight.

Read this extraordinary and enjoyable guide to discover when to buy and sell stocks from an astrological viewpoint; how astrology will help you discover your personal investment style; how the horoscopes of individual countries and corporations affect the selection of markets, industry groups, and individual stocks; and why financial astrologers are often not surprised by takeover bids, failed political coups, and other market “surprises”. Weingarten illustrates his points with insights into the horoscopes of the New York Stock Exchange, IBM, Microsoft, Netscape, Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, and many others. You’ll also find fascinating answers to frequently asked questions, useful data and planetary tables, and resources for further study.

How Investors Use Astrology:

Today it is an open secret on Wall Street that astrology is “hot”, especially since the 1987 crash had been predicted by a number of astrologers. Similar to the technical analysis of 30 years ago, it has yet to achieve maninstream acceptance. Yet some of the most successful traders use it. Many wealthy financiers employ astrological advisors. They know from experience that consulting financial astrologers can help make them money.

People become attracted to financial astrology in a number of ways. Some have a family astrologer who also helps them plan their financial futures. Others hear about a sensational forecast made by a financial astrologer and want to hear more. Many market professionals know about market cycles and want another charting tool. Having been a professional astrologer for 20 years first, it was natural for me to believe I could make money investing by the stars. After all, I had first heard about the 1987 market crash in October of 1986!

Furthermore, my background in math and computers facilitated my development of the appropriate trading models to make money from astrological forecasts. More about that later. Until recently, financial astrologers were consulted only at the time of major visible astronomical events, such as eclipses, or to provide some reporter with an oddball view of a particularly confusing or highly volatile market. Today they influence tens of billions of investment dollars, and major fund managers worldwide regularly consult them for both first and second opinions on global stock, bond, and commodity markets.

While astrologers sometimes make mistakes or can be surprised by market behavior, market forecasts made by competent, experienced financial astrologers often are more accurate and precise than other economic modeling systems. Market professionals, investors, analysts and traders, as well as financial astrologers, find that knowledge of astrology i.e., Psychology and timing is as important as technical and fundamental analysis in forecasting market behavior. Please ponder the following five points:

• 1. Astrology is more than one-half the market. Of the five major potentially knowable factors that influence markets, Fundamental Analysis, Technical Analysis, Market Timing, Market Psychology, and Geopolitical Events, astrological input is needed to calculate and successfully forecast the latter three’s influences.
• 2. Astrology is a mathematical psychology based on astronomy. Astrology is a mathematical discipline, offering investors the option of charting not only cycles and market psychology, but also unique cosmic/terrestrial events. Astrology not only measures cycles and unique events, but projects these cycles and unique events in advance.
• 3. Astrology can be a telescope and/or microscope . Financial astrologers chart both intermediate and long-range trends, as well as forec ast short-term and intraday market moves.
  4. Markets have horoscopes. Countries, stocks, investors, and financial advisors.
• 5. First rule: Look to your own chart (horoscope). One common denominator of successful traders and investors is that each expresses his or her own unique style. Astrology helps one to discover one’s personal trading/investing style, market affinities, and timing cycles.
