Market analysts and financial media commentators have led individual investors to believe that daily news, quarterly earnings reports and corporate events drive stock prices. Nothing could be further from the truth. The reality is - the financial markets are a reflection of the mass psychological emotion of traders, investors and fund managers. When market participants are feeling positive, they are driven to buy. When they are feeling uncertain or negative, they are driven to sell. So what then drives human emotion? In the opinion of stock trader and author M.G. Bucholtz, the ever-changing configurations of orbiting planets and other celestial bodies in our cosmos influence our body chemistry and thereby drive human emotion. The Sun is the centre of our planetary system. The Sun emits massive amounts of solar radiation in all directions into the vastness of space. This radiation is called solar wind. This solar wind interacts with the magnetic fields around Mercury, Venus, Moon, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. These planets accept and then disburse the solar wind radiation. As the radiation is disbursed, a goodly amount of it finds its way towards the magnetic field around planet Earth. Changes in the density and speed of solar wind mean that the amount of radiation reaching Earth’s magnetic field on a daily, weekly or monthly basis will be ever-changing. As a result, the intensity or flux of the Earth’s magnetic field is also constantly changing. The alignment of the orbiting planets in our cosmos plays a significant role in determining how much solar radiation is deflected towards Earth’s magnetic field. We all have an electrical field that runs through our tissues. Hence, basic physics demands that changes to the Earth’s magnetic field will then induce subtle changes to our bodily electrical circuitry. These subtle changes are what drive our emotional responses. Human emotion changing in response to events in the cosmos is not a new concept. In the early 1900’s, the venerable W.D. Gann recognized the connection between changing emotions and price fluctuations on the stock and commodity markets. His trading success realized from applying astro phenomena to the markets is legendary. The astro models pioneered by other figures from this era including Louise McWhirter and Donald Bradley are as powerful today as they were back then. This Almanac begins by offering the reader an overview of the science of Astrology. The detailed examination that then follows will show the reader how: • aspect angles between the various planets and the New Moon can set the tone for the equity markets each month. • the Moon transiting past certain key points in the zodiac each month aligns to short term trend changes on the New York Stock Exchange. • times when Mercury, Venus and Mars are Retrograde align to trend changes on equity and commodity markets. • times Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter registering maximum and minimum declination levels equate to trend changes on equity and commodity markets. • times when transiting Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars make hard aspects to planetary positions in the First Trade charts of individual commodity futures are profoundly significant for traders and investors. • esoteric mathematical concepts such as Gann Lines and Harmonic Lines are extraordinarily powerful tools for traders and investors to use. It is the author’s sincere hope that after applying the material presented in this Almanac, readers will begin to enjoy an increased level of success with their trading and investing activity. It is further the author’s hope that readers will then frequently pause to reflect on the deeper connection between the financial markets, the cosmos and the emotions of mankind.

In 1937 Louise McWhirter published her ground-breaking forecasting methodology in which she revealed how to forecast in advance the general state of the economy for years to come. She revealed how to use planetary angles present at the time of a New Moon to identify key dates in a lunar cycle when the New York Stock Exchange would have a high probability of exhibiting a price trend change. She further showed how to use planetary transits, angles and aspects to predict times when individual stocks and commodity futures would have a high probability of exhibiting a price trend change. Today, McWhirter's work in in danger of fading into a distant memory. This book has been crafted in part to help ensure that does not happen. This book has also been crafted to assist the trader and investor in de-mystifying the many nuances in the McWhirter methodology.

Management & Leadership

Women in leadership roles is good business! When publicly traded companies have women in senior management roles, those organizations experience an average 47% increase of return on equity and a corresponding 55% increase of earnings. Women want to lead at the highest levels: when 1,400 managers were asked if they had the desire to reach a top management position such as a C-suite role, 79% of women said YES. Yet women hold only 5.8% of corporate executive positions and 14.5% of board positions. So how do we reduce the gap between reality and aspiration? First we need to understand how fairy tale myth, media, and our history of communication have shaped where we are today. Secondly, we need to make different decisions if we truly want to create powerful women leaders.
