Interpretation Guide

Blood Moons
Total lunar eclipses where Earth's atmosphere creates the red appearance. In financial astrology, these are often watched as potential reversal or volatility periods, though correlations vary significantly.

Eclipse Seasons
Twice-yearly windows when Sun-Earth-Moon alignment allows eclipses. Some market practitioners note increased volatility during these periods, though empirical evidence remains debated.

Mercury Retrograde
The apparent backward motion of Mercury occurs 3-4 times yearly. In trading folklore, it's associated with communication issues, technical problems, and false signals. Many practitioners suggest extra caution with new positions during these periods.

Supermoons
Full or new moons at closest Earth approach. Some traders track these for potential short-term highs/lows, particularly in commodities and currencies, though effects are subtle if present.

Seasonal Markers
Astronomical season changes have been incorporated into various market timing systems, with some analysts noting clustering of trend changes around these dates.
