Astrology and numerology allow you to grasp the cyclical nature of life.
Unfortunately, it’s impossible for universal cycles (e.g., retrogrades, transits, et al.) to function like a weather forecast, having the same exact meaning and symbolic impact for everyone. Please see this blog post for more information:
http://scottpetullo.com/blog/2010/01/the-cyclical-nature-of-life-reflected-by-various-minor-astrology-factors/
Universal cycles are minor factors, even as assessed in conjunction with your personal configurations, yet tracking them can still be beneficial.
Some of the more popular and easier to track universal cycles are retrogrades, including Mercury retrograde.
These two blog posts address the phenomenon of Mercury retrograde:
http://scottpetullo.com/blog/2011/03/mercury-retrograde-3-30-2011-7-points-to-consider/
http://scottpetullo.com/blog/2011/04/mercury-retrograde-follow-up-3-more-details-to-consider/
Consider these points:
1. Mercury enters the sign of Virgo 7-28-2011, 10:58 a.m. PDT.
2. Mercury retrograde 8-2-2011 8:50 p.m. PDT 1 degree 12 minutes Virgo.
3. Mercury moves back into the sign of Leo during its retrograde phase 8-8-2011 2:46 a.m. PDT.
4. Mercury goes direct 8-26-2011 3:03 p.m. PDT 18 degrees 41 minutes Leo
5. Mercury enters the sign of Virgo 9-8-2011 10:58 p.m. PDT
6. The pre-retrograde period (outlined in the first Mercury retrograde blog post linked above, lasting 17-28 days before Mercury goes retrograde) started early to mid July 2011. Overall, I’ve found this pre-period to be more challenging than the actual retrograde period.
7. The first 12 days of Mercury retrograde (i.e., “collapse phase,” as I phrase it in the blog post linked above) runs from 8-2-2011 to 8-14-2011.
8. The second 12 days of Mercury retrograde runs from 8-14-2011 to 8-26-2011.
Retrograde is an affliction. Although Mercury is dignified (symbolically strengthened) in the sign of Virgo, it slides back into the sign of Leo about 6 days after it goes retrograde, representatively aggravating the retrograde weakness as a universal cycle, potentially making it more problematic in connection to your personal configurations.
Don’t be alarmed though, as any such universal cycle by itself isn’t a powerhouse and its energy must be corroborated to have a real emblematic impact.
The best way to regard a retrograde planet or any other minor factor is to consider it a clue, then look for supporting factors in your comprehensive charts.
The more aware you are of the collective symbolism of the patterns in your unique comprehensive charts, the greater ability you have to reduce your risk and capitalize on the favorable trends in your life.

To outsmart your rival, you need a thorough understanding of that person.
Even the most trivial detail about your adversary’s personality could be used to gain an advantage in negotiations or other competitive matters, yet most facets of character are buried deep in the unconscious, below the persona that is presented to the world. Everyone has their own distinctive weaknesses and strengths.
Five possible methods to grasp the true nature of your rival, giving you the edge necessary to prevail are listed below.
1. Contact your opponent and ask him to complete a multiple choice, fill-in-the blank self-test personality evaluation. Make sure to request that he answers the questions honestly, since self-assessments can be manipulated. Unfortunately, this option probably isn’t viable.
2. Meet with your management staff, even though they don’t know the adversary and aren’t experts in personality analysis, in an attempt to inspire ideas about the adversary’s hidden personality. Regrettably, this would most likely amount to oblivious speculation, yielding a complete lack of actionable intelligence.
3. Hire a good psychologist to analyze his character, although the psychologist would likely demand an in-person assessment, and it’s doubtful your foe will be receptive to the idea.
4. Hire a security investigations firm to dig up secret information about him and his true character, which would probably involve interviewing former associates and those who are or have been close to him (if they are willing). Although this option often produces great results, you must be willing to pay a very minimum of $2000 and frequently $7500 and up for the most competent specialists. The other concern with this option is that the subject can appear to be “clean” (no criminal history, no noticeable bad reputation, etc.), but still be a master villain and a genius at evading detection.
5. Hire a reliable expert who employs handwriting analysis and comprehensive astrology and numerology to delineate his authentic, veiled personality. All it takes is a sample of his script (e.g., a brief handwritten letter), and his birth data (full date of birth at a minimum, preferably with exact time, location, and full, legal birth name).
Please note: clinical behavioral terms (and other extreme expressions and conditions) such as “narcissistic,” “prejudiced,” “evasive,” “envious,” “paranoid,” “confrontational,” “sadistic,” “defiant,” “emotionally unbalanced,” “mental disorder,” “dejected,” “depressed,” “psychotic,” “vindictive,” “deceitful,” “domineering,” “dumb,” “psychosis,” “pathological,” “duplicitous,” “two-faced,” “hot-tempered,” “lacking in integrity,” and “dishonest” aren’t typically addressed in assessments related to potential hires (or other, similar situations) because they are unrelated to the personality qualities needed to successfully do a job.
In order to do an assessment under normal conditions within ethical boundaries, the subject first allows permission for the formal analysis. Circumstances and instances in this article are only to illustrate the usefulness of handwriting analysis and comprehensive astrology and numerology.
Extreme situations such as an innocent person’s life being at risk and, or dealing with a dangerous criminal might warrant an analysis involving the types of personality characteristics featured in this article.
The handwriting analysis, and comprehensive astrology and numerology assessment might reveal, for example, one or more of the following results, which could give you a substantial edge in how you might approach your adversary:
1. Excessive desire for acquisition of money (knowing their motivations can greatly assist you and, or alert you to potential liability, such as in personal relationships).
2. A savior complex (would “do the right thing,” excessively, to his detriment).
3. Excessive vanity, narcissism (he could be manipulated through excessive praise and admiration).
4. Excessive rationalization, self-deception, excessive fantasy oriented thinking and, or lack of objectivity (might fool himself into settling for something less than he would otherwise, might lack a solid sense of discernment, especially while under excessive stress).
5. Excessive restlessness (might abandon negotiations too soon).
6. Perfectionism and, or excessive attention to detail (could get lost in the finer points of an undertaking, missing the bigger picture).
7. Problematic emotional balance and emotional maturity (emotional problems and lapsing into a childish disposition while under pressure could easily lead to his losing focus, thus his edge).
8. Excessive resentment (inability to let go of past wrongs could trip him up, and additional perceived injustices could break his concentration, forcing him into making a mistake).
9. Excessive sensitivity to criticism and, or excessive inhibition (knowing this could allow you to force him into being distracted).
10. Excessive secretiveness and, or evasiveness (expecting a lack of transparency can help you in your tactics).
11. Excessive lack of integrity (knowing you’re dealing with someone who has great difficulty living by his asserted convictions can help prepare you for the worst).
12. Excessive dishonesty (knowing the person is insincere, a liar and, or a deceiver can save you enormous hassles).
13. Excessive conflict avoidance (he could be manipulated into taking a less strife-oriented route, giving you the ability to steer him in the direction you choose).
14. Defiance and, or stubbornness (if you know your opponent may resort to unreasonable, unyielding behavior, you can plan accordingly).
15. Excessive tendency to bluff (expecting your adversary to bluff will allow you to more easily spot it when it happens).
As calculating and cold as it may seem, sometimes you’re forced to fight fire with fire. Greatly decrease your vulnerability and exposure to risk using handwriting analysis and comprehensive astrology and numerology, allowing you a clearer path to success.

Question:
“Do you forecast or time the financial markets? I have heard of psychics who claim to have predicted market crashes. Please provide details. Thanks. A.”
Answer:
Cyclical timing methods (e.g., using comprehensive astrology and numerology) can be applied toward any area in life.
Regarding forecasting and timing financial markets, the challenge includes the extremely high number of variables, and much more so obtaining the correct data (incorporation dates and times, first trade dates and times, etc.). Despite claims, nobody, even the exchanges, has all the absolute correct data. Additionally, there’s the prospect of becoming an adept trader and investor, which can be a full time endeavor.
There exist investment professionals who openly apply (basic) astrology in their work, for example, but none of those well-meaning people are billionaires and I have yet to be impressed with any 5 and 10 year returns that I’ve seen.
Good Financial Pros vs. Wall Street Tricksters
Unfortunately, financial advisers and stock pickers are notorious for exaggerating results. The financial newsletter Hulbert Financial Digest independently ranks many financial pros and is one sure way to know the real story about their annual (and 5 and 10 year) performance. The contrast between the claims they make while being interviewed on financial news TV shows and, or in flashy mailings (e.g., “…average of 120% gains for our picks over the past 3 months!…”), and the actual combined average of all their recommendations as outlined in the Hulbert Financial Digest (“…2% gain for the year, -3.5% over the past 5 years…”) is usually quite striking.
Ken Fisher Tells the Truth About the Financial Industry
“…I began learning about investing and the psychology of markets long ago from my father, Philip Fisher (a mentor to Warren Buffet), and have been working in this business for 38 years. I’ve been through quite a few bull and bear markets, and if there is one thing I’ve learned is that everyone is wrong a lot in the long term. In this field if you’re right 70% of the time in the long run you become an absolute legend. That means being wrong fully 30% of the time–a lot. Two problems! Most investors are wrong more than they are right. Then the few who aren’t still suffer wrongness long enough that it often feels like forever…Few investors were right in 2008. Of those who were, almost none were right in 2009. And for those who called 2009 correctly, few have been right so far in 2010. You may suppose this would breed modesty. It hasn’t! Most ‘gurus’ have selected memory. So my advice is to always be prepared to be wrong a lot of the time…” Ken Fisher, 10-25-2010, Forbes magazine (Bold emphasis above is mine.)
Beware of Opportunistic, Deceitful Psychics
Just as most financial “gurus” have selected memory, many high-profile psychics do as well, disappointingly. Every industry has its charlatans.
There is no shortage of psychics claiming to have predicted “market crashes.” Interestingly, and oblivious to many–especially to the psychics’ supporters—by definition, a “market crash” is an extremely wide scope and covers multitudes of financial corrections the world sees regularly. Any given year there are “market crashes” in one or more sectors or financial markets around the world, and unscrupulous psychics rush to take credit for predicting the inevitable.
Next time you hear of a psychic predicting “…the last 8 attempted terrorist attacks in America…,” for example, ask the following:
- Why aren’t those predictions (in the exact way they phrased them) posted on their website at the time of the prediction, along with the details of the actual thwarted attack when it happened?
- Why is there is no running total of all their mundane predictions (e.g., natural disasters such as hurricanes, geopolitical events, Hollywood matters like which famous starlet will get pregnant, missing persons incidents, “stock market crashes,” etc.) on their website?
- Why do they make 100+ predictions, then proceed to highlight only the 4 they got right, obscuring the glaringly obvious fact with affected compassion and New Age slight of hand prose that the predictions are of the sort that any non-psychic could have easily made (e.g., “there will be big storms this summer on the east coast!”), and that most of the related, additional predictions that didn’t manifest are conveniently forgotten?
Always be sure to get the exact wording–including all related content before and after the sound-bite extracted for public relations purposes–of a psychic’s mundane event prediction such as a stock market crash and compare it to the claims they make after the fact.
Hindsight is 20-20, yet unfortunately that hindsight is the basis for fabricated claims by gimmicky psychics. It is no wonder the psychic industry has little respect in the real world.
Such psychic-performers regularly play the victim game and claim to be unfairly targeted by those who “don’t believe in psychics, the skeptics.”
The reality is that the criticism they receive is warranted and if they approached the craft honestly, they would be receiving less criticism and more praise from those other than naive teenagers, those lacking a sense of discernment, the delusional, and groupie aspiring psychics.
The sham psychics who get mainstream media exposure typically manage to do so by hiring an influential P.R. firm to get them on prime-time TV talk shows, or through pay-for-play TV arrangements. These psychic performers aren’t worth your time. You might ask, “But don’t the producers and TV/radio talk show hosts do proper due diligence to make sure the psychics’ claims are accurate?” Surprisingly, they don’t, mostly because ratings are so important to them, and also because the P.R. firm formulates the client’s content and pitch in a way that makes invented “predictions” magically appear as “documented” circumstance.
I believe there exist many very talented and honorable psychics in this world, but you won’t find them boasting at every opportunity about (contrived) mundane event predictions they’ve made.
Assessing Financial Fate of Individuals, Thus a Corporation’s Stock
The magnitude of an individual’s financial success is reflected in the patterns of their natal and timing comprehensive astrology and numerology charts. I’ve found that it’s infinitely easier to analyze the financial fate of individuals (given their birth data is accurate) rather than entire economies, corporate entities, individual sectors, indices or financial markets.
It’s very viable to accurately assess the financial fate of the majority shareholders of a corporation, giving you a very good idea the future outlook of a company’s stock. If, for example, 10 individuals own 85% of the stock, identifying dramatic positive or negative mutually shared financial trends in those individuals’ comprehensive charts could very well tip you off to major moves in a corporation’s stock price. The issue is the amount of time it takes for such endeavors. While identifying the shared pecuniary ups and downs for 10 people is one thing, doing it for 100 or more is a much more time-consuming and demanding project.

In the order of importance, my findings show that the following list of astrology and numerology charting methods allow for the highest accuracy rates. This example involves a relocation of residence:
1. Your natal charts, including those of ancient astrology and numerology, and modern astrology and numerology, outlining the circumstances and events of your life.
2. Your timing charts, including those of ancient astrology and numerology, and modern astrology and numerology.
Favorable timing, by itself, won’t make anything happen; a circumstance or event must first be confirmed in the natal charts.
Irregular cycles, such as transits and progressions, are excessively, even exclusively emphasized in modern astrology. This approach is problematic because it greatly reduces the rate of accuracy.
It’s important to make use of the more valuable predictive methods of ancient astrology and numerology, such as continual 3, 7, 12, 19, and 27-year cycles, and using natal patterns to forecast.
3. Your locational charts and “relocated” charts. These serve only as background energy. Moving to another location, for example, won’t change your fate. What you may think are major life changes caused by a relocation are really changes predetermined, as symbolized in the natal and timing charts.
4. Horary charts (i.e., the time of an event) for the time you depart for a new location.
5. Horary charts for the time you arrive at a new location.
It’s important to use multiple layers of indicators so your system of checks and balances is thorough enough to maintain consistently high accuracy rates, giving you an edge and ultimately helping to reduce risk.
