Topic: Financial Astrology

Host Greg Carlwood welcomes astrologer and author Austin Coppock back to the program to provide an astrological assessment of 2017. The conversation begins by revisiting topics from their previous meeting, specifically the intersection of astrology and financial market cycles. Coppock notes that while he does not specialize in economics, astrology has a long history of being used to identify patterns in market behavior.

Professional astrologers like Ray Merriman and Jonathan Pearl are cited for their successful track records in predicting market downturns and day trading shifts. Merriman is credited with forecasting the 2007-2009 economic crisis years in advance by identifying macro trends. Pearl reportedly utilizes the rapid movement of the moon to set expectations for daily trading, demonstrating how different celestial bodies correspond to various market levels.
