SPX vs George Bayer's Rule #6A - Declination of Mars

MARS DECLINATION HELIOCENTRIC, 19°51’00” *

From the Nautical Almanac, page 191 up we find the apparent Declination of Mars. We use in this only the value 19°51’. We locate these days ahead of time and expect tops and bottoms to appear there ... These cases happen twice or three times a year.

[George Bayer (1940): Stock and Commodity Traders´ Hand-Book of Trend Determination. Carmel, California; p. 47]

* Heliocentric declination does not exist. In astronomy the heliocentric coordinate system uses longitude and latitude; the geocentric coordinates system longitude and declination. Since Mars oscillates between latitude +/- 1.85 degrees, Bayer was actually looking for days when Mars' declination was at +/- 19°51’00” = 19.850 degrees.

S&P500 vs Saturn-Uranus Cycle

Calculated and charted with Sergey Tarassov's Timing Solution.

In the early 1930s James Mars Langham began publishing on the correlation between the stock market and  geocentric cycles like Jupiter-Saturn, Saturn-Venus, Saturn-Uranus, etc. Here we look at the heliocentric Saturn-Uranus Cycle. Due to orbital eccentricity, the progression of 90 degrees angular distance takes 9 to 12 years, the whole round 44.11 years:

More suitable for swing-trading is the 768th harmonic (0, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, 96, 192, 384, 768. 360°/768 = 0.46875 degrees = 0 28' 7.5"). The progression takes 17.59 to 25.39 days, and the current values are:

2012-11-28 20:55 (Wed) =  22.27 CD

2012-12-21 04:15 (Fri) = 22.31 CD 
2013-01-12 12:35 (Sat) = 22.35 CD

Since this is not a static progression, the next 384th harmonic will last 44.65 days, the 192nd 89.47 days, the 96th 179.61 days, etc.

Sun conjunct Galactic Center

In 1932, Karl Jansky, a Bell Telephone Laboratories engineer, was searching for the source of static affecting overseas telephone lines. To detect the source he built a 95 foot radio-telescope. Part of the static turned out to be created by the center of our Galaxy, a huge black hole about the size of a large star containing the mass of four million Suns. The Galactic Center (GC), then at 25°55' of Sagittarius, is the Sun of our Sun, and source of the utmost gravitational energy present in our galaxy. Our Solar System takes approximately 226 million years to revolve around the Galactic Center. In 1969 Edward R. Dewey wrote about the influence of the GC on financial markets (Cycles Magazine, Vol.20.10, p. 230 f. + Vol.20.12, p. 277 f.). According to standard rates of precession, the GC currently resides at 27°01' 57'' of Sagittarius (= 267.032 = Sagittarius A* - pronounced Sagittarius A star; other sources point to 267.031 and 267.024 degrees), and conjuncts with our Sun today (times below GMT).

SPX vs George Bayer's Rule #9 - Mercury @ 19°36’ Scorpio

MERCURY GEOCENTRIC PASSING OVER 19°36’ SCORPIO AND SAGITTARIUS, ALSO OVER 24°14’ CAPRICORN PRODUCES BIG CHANGES *

Whatever the cause may be, why there are changes produced when Mercury passes certain geocentric degrees we do not know. The rule gives results. The values are 19°36’ Scorpio and Sagittarius, also 24°14’ in Capricorn ... While the first two values bring forth important changes of trend, the last value brings forth all tops in the five years’ period tested, which is quite encouraging to make commitments upon. The opposing places bring also changes: 19°36’ Taurus, 19°16” Gemini and 24°14’ Cancer.

The Essence

Proportion is to Space what Rhythm is to Music

In the sight of the Essence, which is one, the universe is like a single being. The essential unity of the world is the most certain of things but also the most hidden: all knowledge and every perception, however adequate or inadequate, presupposes the essential Unity of beings and of things. 

... It may thus be said that man, who is a microcosm, and the universe, which is a macrocosm, are like two mirrors each reflecting the other. On the one hand man only exists in relation to the macrocosm which determines him, and on the other hand man knows the macrocosm, and this means that all the possibilities which are unfolded in the world are principally contained in man’s intellectual essence. This is the meaning of the saying in the Qur'ān: “And He (God) taught Adam all the names (i.e. all the essences of beings and of things)” (2:31) 

Titus Burckhardt (1953): Introduction to Sufi Doctrine, p. 63-64.

45 Year Cycle

The second year of the Decennial Cycle again has this staggering correlation between the US stock markets of 1967 and 2012 - currently 89% (HERE). This is 45 years apart. W.D.Gann veiled it as follows: "The digits 1 to 9 when added together total 45. 45 is the most important angle. Therefore 45 years in time is a very important cycle. One-half of 45 is 22 ½ years or 270 months. One-fourth of 45 is 11 ½ years or 135 months, which is three times 45." 

In other words: Saturn-Uranus Cycle ≈ 45.3 Years ≈ conjunction, square or opposition happening about every 11.3 Years ≈ 4 * Sunspot Cycles of an average of 11.3 Years.  Of course the 45 year cycle is important, but finally just one cycle among many others, all together modulating the tides of events.  

However, sure there are periods with a specific feeling, a mentality, a zeitgeist of the majority of people, an attitude, an aura, that last for about 45 years. Hence there is also a 45 year cycle of scientific and social innovation and stagnation, each of about 20 years where there is science innovation, but humanities, opinion and social relations are "conservative" and do not change. There is a transition of about 2 to 4 years and then the humanities have numerous experiments and changes, but science becomes stagnant and does not innovate. Social conflict, revolution and war are also synchronous with this pattern (HERE & HERE & HERE & HERE).

The average second year of a decade prints a major low around this time of the year, which is (on average) amongst the best long-term buying opportunities of the decade, since during the third year the DJIA significantly surges above the second year highs. Another important fact is, that the DJIA's closed the average Election Year solidly above the June and November lows. Jeffrey Hirsh points out: "Presidential election years are the second best performing year of the four-year cycle ... When incumbent parties retained power ... stocks often bottomed within two years later ... we could see a bottom by 2014." Ten years ago some stock indices bottomed in October 2002, others in March 2003. In fact, the 45 Year Cycle projects another major low into March 2013 (most likely below this upcoming November low), and the low of the decade into May 2015. This is 43 months off the March 2009 low or 4 more 9 Month Cycles throughs ahead of us, where the current Kitchin Cycle terminates. Much could be debated on whether it is the last one of Kondratieff-Winter or the 1st one of Spring in the 6th Kondratieff-Cycle.

Such long-term projections should be understood with a grain of salt, since planetary cycles are not circles, but ellipses, where angular distance and progression does not correlate 1:1 with solar or lunar calendars. Therefore measured in days, weeks or months, these big cycles oftentimes seem to extend or to skip and shrink (HERE). Also a sequence of cycles does not need to print out identical patterns, but similar ones. Therefore the projected panic low in early 2015 does not necessarily need to become a lower low. Given the inflationary monetary policy, it could very well just mark the end of a huge (even ascending) triangle pattern that started in 1998 and 2000. 

Ideally this current decline should end on November 19, and a rally throughout the Thanksgiving-week is likely. Mercury turns direct on November 26, which is best for a ITD #8 high. A drop into a higher low on the Lunar Eclipse on November 28 is expected. An intermediate high will be in by December 3-4. A decline into the December low around New Moon ideally ends on Monday, 17th. From there some sort of early and extended Santa Claus-rally will ensue into year end or even the first trading days of 2013 (see also HERE). This will be the end of the correction. From that important high (right shoulder in the Head-and-Shoulders pattern or TPDH #27) the stock markets will start another steep decline into the general vicinity of the October 2011 low (SPX 1.100 - 1.070 / DJI 10.600 - 10.400). This 9 month cycle low is scheduled for as early as March 1 or as late as the equinox. It will be the low of 2013, the start of a new TPDH-pattern and the launchpad for a rally into December 2013. This matches the latest prediction for Sunspot Cycle 24 with a maximum in the Fall of 2013. What puzzles however is the Commercial's Eurodollar Positions suggesting the party will be over by late May early June 2013 already. Time will tell.

The 1967 - 2012 correlation is 89%. The daily close of Nov 7 may well be the low of the month (HERE). However, the 1967 bar chart predicts more choppy and unhealthy sideways-to-up movement into New Moon (Nov 13 = Solar Eclipse) followed by a retest of the low on Nov 16-19 (Fri-Mon).

The Wash-Rinse-Repeat Cycle

Financial Sense - Chris Puplava 11/02/2012: The leading tendency of the performance for early to late-stage cyclicals relative to the performance of the stock market suggests that the stock market rallies post the election and does well in the first part of the year [2013] but then we see a selloff heading into the summer before we bottom. Looks like the “Wash-Rinse-Repeat Cycle Strikes Again” for a fourth year! 

If we do run into late Q1 to early Q2 weakness in the economy in 2013 we are likely to begin seeing the early fingerprints of that in the stock market beginning now where the stock market rallies into the end of the year on weaker breadth and momentum.

Conjure away Debt

Ambrose Evans-Pritchard- 21 Oct 2012: ... A paper by the International Monetary Fund claims that one could eliminate the net public debt of the US at a stroke, and by implication do the same for Britain, Germany, Italy, or Japan. ... The conjuring trick is to replace our system of private bank-created money - roughly 97% of the money supply - with state-created money. ... If lenders are forced to put up 100% reserve backing for deposits, they lose the exorbitant privilege of creating money out of thin air. The nation regains sovereign control over the money supply. ... The IMF study came out in August and has begun to acquire a cult following around the world. Entitled "The Chicago Plan Revisited", it revives the scheme first put forward by professors Henry Simons and Irving Fisher in 1936 during the ferment of creative thinking in the late Depression.
