NW: To the contrary, knowing what sign the planets are located significantly
narrows the range of possibilities to only those markets that are relevant to
those planets and signs. In your example of Mars in Libra, I would only be looking
at those markets associated with Mars or Libra. Mars would serve to"energize"
those Libran items. For example, Libra is thought to rule Sugar, so I would check
the Sugar chart for a possible set up for a change in trend at that time. As you
can see, this approach is very specific, as it gives you the exact time and
specific markets to monitor.
