For the next twelve months, the most benefic planet will be transiting the fiery sign, domain of the sun and associated with entertainment, creativity, luxury, speculation, and gambling. The sectors that benefit from Jupiter&#8217;s transit can indeed outperform the broader market, and the opposite for Saturn. A bold claim which will be backed up with ETF data.</p></blockquote><p><strong>In this report, we uncover:</strong></p><ol><li><p>The fascinating impact of Jupiter and Saturn&#8217;s transits through different tropical zodiac signs</p></li><li><p>Which sectors and themes are setup for expansion over the next 12 months</p></li><li><p>Six historical backtests with real ETF performance data</p></li><li><p>A practical ETF playbook for the next twelve months</p></li></ol><p><strong>Estimated Read Time: 10 Minutes | Full Prediction Summary Included</strong></p><div><hr></div><h2>PART I | THE SECTOR MAP</h2><p>Each of the twelve signs governs specific industries, sectors and themes. This is established astrological tradition going back to early Jyotish texts, Ptolemy and the early Hellenistic astrologers. It&#8217;s fairly intuitive:</p><p><strong>Aries</strong> | Defence, energy, new ventures </p><p><strong>Taurus</strong> | Metals, land, agriculture, luxury </p><p><strong>Gemini</strong> | Communications, media, tech, transport </p><p><strong>Cancer</strong> | Real estate, food, domestic economy</p><p> <strong>Leo</strong> | Entertainment, luxury, speculation, gold </p><p><strong>Virgo</strong> | Healthcare, pharmaceuticals, agriculture </p><p><strong>Libra</strong> | Luxury, art market, partnerships, legal </p><p><strong>Scorpio</strong> | Banking, debt markets, mining </p><p><strong>Sagittarius</strong> | Education, travel, international trade </p><p><strong>Capricorn </strong>| Government, institutional restructuring </p><p><strong>Aquarius</strong> | Technology, innovation, crypto, regulation </p><p><strong>Pisces</strong> | Pharmaceuticals, oil, charity and philanthropy</p><p>Now, here&#8217;s the important part- this is a directional bias, not a guarantee. The signal is real but it&#8217;s never simple. Macro shocks, central bank policy, geopolitical events, and individual company fundamentals can all override the positive signal in any given period. </p><p>Let&#8217;s see what this all looks like with real ETF data.</p><div><hr></div><h2>PART II | JUPITER - THE ETF DATA</h2><h3>Jupiter in Gemini | May 2024 - June 2025</h3><p>Gemini governs communications, media, technology, and transport. When Jupiter entered Gemini from May 2024, the prediction was straightforward - these sectors should benefit from a 12 month expansion tailwind.</p><p>Here&#8217;s what actually happened in the

8th house of other people&#8217;s money and shared resources - a fitting placement for a token whose entire thesis is pooled identity and shared infrastructure.</p><p>Transiting Jupiter will sextile the natal Uranus on June 13th was highly positive, with WLD up 26% between 9th June and 15th June. There&#8217;s a remarkable three hit cluster on June 19th as Jupiter trines natal Neptune and squares the natal Moon followed by Jupiter trine natal Venus and opposite natal Pluto, both exact around June 29th. That&#8217;s quite a mixed bag for Worldcoin but seems volatile yet bullish.</p><p>Longer term, transiting Pluto squares natal Mercury exactly at the end of February 2027, alongside Jupiter squaring the natal Ascendant around the same time. This is a very bearish time, indicating that early 2027 could be a period of structural or regulatory pressure that reduces price action significantly.</p><p>However, July 2030 looks like the most potent time as we see transiting Uranus at 21 Gemini conjoin the natal Jupiter in the chart. Transiting Jupiter is also conjoined the natal Ascendant, so if the proof-of-personhood protocol does become widely used, Worldcoin could benefit from this a lot over the next 4 years. </p><div

I have analyst consensus summaries to help you make a decision.</p><p>Around July 18th 2026, the sky forms what astrologers have been calling &#8220;The Barbault Basket&#8221; - a grand configuration where four heavyweight planets sit almost exactly on the 4th degree of their signs.

The tech bull run isn&#8217;t done yet, but who stands to benefit most? A window of opportunity is indicated before the second half of the year flips.</p></blockquote><p><strong>In this report, we uncover:</strong></p><ol><li><p>One of the most auspicious dates of the year, and what it means for markets</p></li><li><p>The SpaceX IPO</p></li><li><p>Chiron in Taurus and the Energy Crisis </p></li><li><p>Japan, USA, Crypto and Nvidia</p></li></ol><p><strong>Estimated Read Time: 20 Minutes | Full Prediction Summary Included</strong></p><div><hr></div><h1><strong>PART I: THE RETROSPECTIVE</strong></h1><p>The market continued to surge to new highs throughout May, carried primarily by AI and tech companies. The rally seems to correlate almost perfectly with the ongoing Uranus in Gemini trine to Pluto in Aquarius which began April 27th and is still underway, and it looks like this euphoria can continue into July at the peak of the trine on July 7th at least before the next correction comes, with some bumps along the way.</p><p>Famed investor Micheal Burry still says it looks like 1999. The story seems simple - Bulls think the AI revolution is here to stay and provide infinite growth and value on a scale never witnessed before, while the bears say a melt up is occurring with self reinforcing sentiment creating a blow off top formation, with a hard reversal coming soon.</p><p>Meanwhile, the deceptive war tactics of Saturn and Neptune in Aries continue. Trump continues his market sentiment bait and switches. One day a peace deal tweet sends oil down, the next day more bomb threats come. </p><p>This is clearly intentional, and we&#8217;re witnessing a highly calculated war full of all sorts of illusions and deception tactics. The case of the boy who cried wolf is evident now with the Trump tweets.</p><p>Sovereign bond yields moved higher in several markets, indicating the market sees higher inflation, higher interest rates and greater risk in the market forming, and I&#8217;d agree with them as we&#8217;re just at the beginning of Neptune in Aries which can bring high inflation. </p><p>The risks of market euphoria are now obvious, but the astrology suggests we can ride this wave up until July, at least until the Jupiter-Pluto opposition shows its hand. Ride the wave while you can, because the second half of the year is looking quite bearish.</p><div><hr></div><h3><strong>PREDICTIONS LEDGER</strong></h3><p><strong>How did our predictions perform in May?</strong></p><div class="callout-block" data-callout="true"><p>Here, I take quotes from my article on May and measure the hits and misses.</p></div><ul><li><p><em>&#8220;We could see some interesting Wallstreet and Epstein file related news and a small market dump around the Scorpio Full Moon which starts off the month&#8221;</em></p></li></ul><blockquote><p><strong>Partial.</strong> On May 6th we saw a <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cd7pd0rqwreo">US Judge release Mr.Epsteins Purported Suicide Note</a>. The wallstreet related news was indeed those new all time highs being made at the start of May, which has only continued throughout the month. There was no dump around the full moon - quite the opposite as positive momentum launched.</p></blockquote><ul><li><p>&#8220;<em>the Sun Mercury conjunction in Taurus on May 14th followed by the Mercury and Sun conjunctions to Uranus from May 17th to 22nd seem the most relevant days of the month - particularly active for Donald Trump, Crypto, and Technology stocks.&#8221;</em></p></li></ul><blockquote><p><strong>Hit.</strong> The senate banking committee approved the clarity act precisely on May 14th with bipartisan support, moving the bill forward. Crypto rallied on the vote. Meanwhile, Trump attended bilateral talks in China, making his address in which he stated &#8220;The relationship between China and the USA is going to be better than ever before.&#8221;</p></blockquote><ul><li><p><em>&#8220;the square we see on May 26th may relate to an escalation or Major Tension in the US Iran Conflict and Hormuz Standoff, especially as Mars is in Taurus, the sign of natural resources.&#8221;</em></p></li></ul><blockquote><p><strong>Hit. T</strong>he U.S. military announced it struck Iranian boats and missile launch sites on May 25th in Southern Iran - just as the square aspect was perfecting.</p></blockquote><ul><li><p><em>&#8220;Bitcoin: If bullish momentum sustains, we could see it enter the 80K region.&#8221;</em></p></li></ul><blockquote><p><strong>Hit. </strong>Bitcoin safely surged to 82K by May 6th, hovering around the 70k level until ending the month around 76K</p></blockquote><ul><li><p><em>&#8220;The astrology looks pretty bearish for gold this month. May 11th bearish. May 18th Bearish&#8221; </em></p></li></ul><blockquote><p><strong>Hit. </strong>Gold had a volatile month, finishing the month down 2.2%, but saw a surge of 4.7% from May 5th to May 12th. The bearish May 18th period really began May 14th through to the end of the month where we saw a drop of 5% from May 14th to May 27th.</p></blockquote><ul><li><p><em>&#8220;On May 11 we see transiting Venus in Gemini trine the natal North Node which is a supportive sense of Greed for oil.&#8221;</em></p></li></ul><blockquote><p><strong>Hit. </strong>Between the 10th May and 12th May oil rose 7.38%. </p></blockquote><ul><li><p><em>&#8220;Oil towards $110-$115&#8221;</em></p></li></ul><blockquote><p><strong>Miss. </strong>Oil hovered around $100 and crashed down at the end of the month towards $89 on potential peace deal news.</p></blockquote><ul><li><p>&#8220;<em>So, the main thing that could impact oil markets in May would be more erratic trump tweets.&#8221;</em></p></li></ul><blockquote><p><strong>Partial. </strong>Whilst I was eying up May 14th for a trump tweet (this was when he made his speech in China) it was an end of month tweet of a peace deal being near that saw oil drop over 9% between May 21st and May 27th on the Sun-Uranus conjunction in Gemini.</p></blockquote><ul><li><p><em>&#8220;The Mars-Chiron conjunction in Aries just 2 days later is quite a violent conjunction indicating wounds and aggression. Is Trump making a military announcement here?&#8221;</em></p></li></ul><blockquote><p><strong>Miss. </strong>The Mars-Chiron conjunction thankfully didn&#8217;t bring any violent news up.</p></blockquote><ul><li><p><em>&#8220;In the chart for Iran, transiting Saturn conjoins the natal Sun of this chart on May 8th, which looks very challenging for Iranian Leadership and government. This is the most potent marker of the month for Iran.</em></p></li></ul><blockquote><p><strong>Hit. </strong>US forces attacked two Iranian-flagged oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman on May 8th, which were allegedly violating the blockade leading to further US&#8211;Iran exchange of fire near Hormuz</p></blockquote><ul><li><p><em>It&#8217;s a good time to research strong energy companies. For example, Northern Oil &amp; Gas ($NOG) who will see Sun and Uranus conjunct the natal Venus of the IPO chart around May 22nd</em></p></li></ul><blockquote><p><strong>Miss. </strong>Down 20% on the month - I&#8216;m still bullish for energy over the next year, although the company made its first move into Canada by agreeing to buy a 25% stake in light-oil assets in Alberta&#8217;s Duvernay shale on May 27th.</p></blockquote><ul><li><p><em>Markets continue a &#8220;blow-off top&#8221; momentum in May, driven by optimism that may later trap traders.</em></p></li></ul><blockquote><p><strong>Hit. </strong>Equities continue to surge bullishly. RSI is at 62, not quite hot enough to confirm a blow off top, but the SPY S&amp;P 500 ETF has been trading above its 200 day moving average for 36 trading days. I think this bullish sentiment generally continues until early July, as Uranus into Gemini trining Pluto in Aquarius has proven itself a bullish indicator for all things tech and AI, at least temporarily. That peak of the trine could be the peak of the blow off top. </p></blockquote><div class="callout-block" data-callout="true"><p style="text-align: center;">7 Hit. 2 Partial. 3 Miss.</p><p style="text-align: center;">If we count partials as half a point, that&#8217;s 66.7%.</p></div><div><hr></div><h1><strong>PART II: JUNE MACRO-ASTROLOGY</strong></h1><div

I don&#8217;t say that lightly - there are rumours and speculation that the original &#8220;Satoshi Nakamoto&#8221; later contributed to the design of Zcash. </p><p>Zcash has had a roaring month up 84% to 662 dollars. Zcash is one of the most &#8220;quantum prepared&#8221; coins on the market, which could be incredibly valuable as we head towards the next 7 years of Uranus in Gemini and Pluto in Aquarius - the decryption threat from quantum computers needs to be taken seriously. </p><p>The SEC closed its investigation into the Zcash Foundation without enforcement action in early 2026.</p><p>For the chart data, I&#8217;m using the genesis block date of October 28th, 2016, 1:56 AM, Broomfield, Colorado. </p><p>On April 25th we saw Uranus enter Gemini, Zcash&#8217;s 11th house of gains, alongside conjoining Venus. The sun was also transiting its 10th house from April 20th to May 20th, this seems to have tracked well with this Zcash surge alongside the broader crypto and equities market in April. (Uranus in Gemini and Pluto in Aquarius are clearly providing all the power to tech, crypto and AI).</p><p>The support seems likely to hold without any major correction dip for June - as we see transiting Saturn trine the natal Venus and the natal Saturn - this suggests a new level of support and stability, alongside Jupiter sextiling the midheaven.</p><p>July appears to be favourable with Jupiter entering the 1st house of identity and self, but there could be some pullback from a sense of over expansion around late July into august as the Jupiter-Pluto opposition occurs over the 1st/7th house and squares the natal Sun/Mercury conjunction.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

with the bullish or bearish headwinds of Ethereum and Bitcoin more widely. </p><p>It had a very tough Q1, falling in value around 35% between January and March alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum. Equally, with bullish crypto movements in April,  it has recovered that 3% loss. So needless to say this is very volatile. Although the fundamentals may be sound, I&#8217;d stay away from these smaller cap more speculative alts especially as we enter August through October in 2026. For now, speculative traders may want to use current bullish sentiment in April, May and June to ride an uptrend. </p>

The results have been very accurate.</p><p>In this article, I&#8217;ll walk  through three clean examples.

In her tropical chart, Mercury is the ruler of the prosperity point The sub-period activates the wealth increase regardless of the broader Mahadasha context.</p><div><hr></div><h3>CAN THIS BE USED FOR MARKET ALPHA?</h3><p>Here&#8217;s where it gets really interesting for anyone reading this who follows markets and Vedic Astrology.</p><p>CEOs and major shareholders have natal charts. Some, we can find. Some are hidden (quite deliberately, in my view.) Those charts, if accurate, have prosperity points. Those points activate during specific planetary periods. When the wealth timing of a key figure aligns with a stock or asset they&#8217;re heavily exposed to, the personal wealth window often correlates with significant price action in the underlying stock. We can use this as a solid piece of alpha.</p><p>Gates&#8217;s Venus Mahadasha mapped to the Microsoft stock explosion. Jobs&#8217;s Venus Mahadasha mapped to Apple&#8217;s resurrection and Pixar&#8217;s IPO. The technique works retrospectively with solid accuracy.</p><p>Going forward, I&#8217;ll be integrating this type of analysis into my financial astrology research. Expect to see more prosperity windows of relevant CEOs and founders factored into the timing call. Personal karmic timing of the people running companies is a layer of alpha that conventional financial astrology has ignored, and it&#8217;s one of the most logical and obvious signals. All we need is patience to trust the technique and see the period through.</p><p>For my consultation clients, this technique is one amongst many used in a personal wealth timing analysis. If you&#8217;re a high net worth individual, a business owner, or someone trying to understand when your own wealth will accumulate this is one of many techniques we cover together in a session. The technique tells you not just whether wealth is structurally available in your chart (and roughly how much) but the specific years and sub-periods when it manifests most reliably.</p><div><hr></div><h3>THE BOTTOM LINE</h3><p>This Vedic prosperity point is one of the rarest examples of an ancient technique that still works with measurable precision. It identified Gates&#8217;s peak wealth period before Microsoft was profitable. It identified Jobs&#8217;s commercial breakthrough years before Pixar existed. It explains the Eras Tour without invoking a single Saturn-related stretch. I also have extensive personal research on Musk, Oprah, Paul Mcartney, Adele, Warren Buffet, and many others.</p><p><a href="https://stan.store/RowanHogg">If you&#8217;d like to know when your own

Wins, misses, partial calls, and predictions still in play. All of it scored, all of it timestamped, all of it open for any subscriber to fact-check.</em></p></blockquote><div><hr></div><p><strong>In this piece I&#8217;ll walk through:</strong></p><ul><li><p>How to use the Prediction Zone</p></li><li><p>Why most financial astrologers won&#8217;t publish their misses, and why I think that&#8217;s a mistake</p></li><li><p>The methodology</p></li><li><p>What the numbers actually say</p></li></ul><p>&#9201; <strong>Estimated Read Time: 8 minutes</strong></p><div><hr></div><h2>PART I | THE CASE FOR TRANSPARENCY</h2><p>Pundits delete bad calls. Crypto Twitter influencers screenshot the wins and let the rest disappear into the algorithm. The accumulated effect is that an entire industry presents itself as more accurate than it actually is, and the consumer has no way to verify.</p><p>I want to do something different.</p><p>The Prediction Zone is a single page available to paid subscribers that contains every single financial astrology prediction I&#8217;ve made since the inception of this substack. Broad and specific, directional and price-targeted, on stocks, crypto, commodities, currencies, geopolitics, and macro themes. Each prediction is logged with the date it was made, the time window it was supposed to play out in, the astrological reasoning, the source link to where it was originally published, and an outcome score.</p><p>Why do I do this?</p><p>First, because it&#8217;s the right thing to do<strong>.</strong> If I&#8217;m asking subscribers to pay for predictions, they deserve to see how those predictions have actually performed. Not a curated highlight reel - the full record. You can&#8217;t make an informed decision about whether to keep subscribing if you can only see the wins.</p><p>Second, because it forces me to keep getting better. Once you know that every prediction you make will go on a public scorecard, your incentives shift. Vague calls feel less safe. Specific calls feel more meaningful. How can you trust someone who doesn&#8217;t log their predictions?</p><div><hr></div><h2>PART II | THE METHODOLOGY</h2><p>The scoring system is simple. Each prediction gets one of four verdicts when its time window closes:</p><ul><li><p><strong>Correct</strong> - The prediction played out as called within the predicted window. Worth 1 point.</p></li><li><p><strong>Partial</strong> - Directionally right but the magnitude, the timing, or a specific detail was off. Worth 0.5 points.</p></li><li><p><strong>Incorrect</strong> - The prediction did not play out. Worth 0 points.</p></li><li><p><strong>Pending</strong> - The window hasn&#8217;t closed yet, or the outcome isn&#8217;t yet clear. Not counted.</p></li></ul><p>Some predictions have year-long windows that haven&#8217;t closed yet, but are tracking clearly in one direction. These get a (so far) suffix - they&#8217;re counted in the Provisional accuracy rate but not the Conservative one.</p><p>The Prediction Zone shows two headline numbers:</p><ul><li><p><strong>Conservative Accuracy Rate</strong> - Counts only fully resolved predictions. This is the strictest reading.</p></li><li><p><strong>Provisional Accuracy Rate</strong> - Includes the in-progress &#8220;(so far)&#8221; calls.</p></li></ul><h3>WHAT THE DATA ACTUALLY MEANS</h3><p><a href="https://www.cxoadvisory.com/investing-expertise/guru-grades-project-milestones/">The CXO Advisory Group&#8217;s landmark study tracked 6,584 forecasts from 68 public market gurus between 2005 and 2012.</a> The average accuracy across all of them was just 47% - barely better than a coin flip. Only 5 of the 68 forecasters (around 7%) ever beat 60% on a meaningful sample.<a href="https://escholarship.org/content/qt8wf3r6qp/qt8wf3r6qp.pdf"> A follow-up re-analysis by Bailey, Borwein, Salehipour and Lopez de Prado</a>, weighting forecasts by horizon and specificity, reached a similar conclusion: only around 16% of forecasters scored above 60%.</p><p>Those studies focused on directional calls on the broad market, while my work spans a wider mix of broad themes - stocks, crypto, commodities, geopolitics, world affairs - so the comparison isn&#8217;t perfectly like for like. But the bigger point holds: across the public forecasting world, sustained accuracy above 60% on any meaningful sample is rare.</p><h3>WHAT ACCURACY DOESN&#8217;T CAPTURE</h3><p>Pure accuracy percentage, counterintuitively, isn&#8217;t actually the right way to measure value in this work. The numbers count every prediction equally, but the value of any one accurate call can be far greater than several incorrect ones.</p><p>Take the Marvell Technology prediction: very bullish in April, published weeks in advance, with the astrological reasoning laid out openly. The stock delivered over 50% gains within the predicted window. A subscriber who acted on that single call paid for their subscription in one trade. Meanwhile, a broader miss like a vague monthly direction call costs nothing but a tally mark in the Incorrect column. The math counts every prediction equally. Your portfolio doesn&#8217;t.</p><p>The other thing worth weighing is timing. Predicting tomorrow&#8217;s price is easy, but calling a bullish month for a specific stock six months out, with the astrological justification published in advance, is a fundamentally harder skill - and it&#8217;s the one that demonstrates whether astrology actually has predictive power.</p><p>I also won&#8217;t pretend my work is static and system-based. The methodology has tightened considerably over the past year as the dataset has grown and certain techniques have proven themselves more reliable than others. Many of the calls in the Incorrect column come from earlier work where I was still calibrating. The trajectory matters as much as the snapshot.</p><div><hr></div><h2>PART 3 | HOW TO USE THE PREDICTION ZONE</h2><p>This section is for paid subscribers only.</p>

The people who understood what Bitcoin was, was Cryptography was, how it all worked, and understood the value of that idea early, were the ones who benefited most over the following seven years. I met a young guy at a social meeting, about 25 years old. I asked what he does, he said he&#8217;s retired. There&#8217;s only one way that&#8217;s possible in this day and age. Congratulations to him!</p><p>Uranus enters Gemini on April 25th, 2026. And it will stay there until 2033. That&#8217;s a huge outer planet movement with huge societal consequences - and it was always going to be about information.</p><p>Gemini rules information, communication, the transaction of ideas, broadcasting, the flow of language and data between minds. It rules what I&#8217;m writing and what you&#8217;re reading right now. What Uranus brings is disruption, revolution, and a technology that rewrites the rules.</p><p>My prediction? I think that technology is prediction markets.</p><div><hr></div><h1><strong>THE EPISTEMIC PROBLEM OF AI</strong></h1><p>I&#8217;m not sure if you know, but we have a huge epistemic crisis impacting the information sphere right now. </p><p>The entire information ecosystem - the internet, social media, journalism, academia, think tanks, yes, and Substacks, are being quietly flooded by AI generated slop content. It&#8217;s not always obviously bad content, and in fact in can be quite convincing. </p><p>AI&#8217;s are getting better and better and having plausible, well structured, thoroughly-cited content that can argue any side of any argument with equal fluency in approximately 5 seconds. Do you see the major problems that brings to our global information based society?</p><p>Anyone on earth can now generate a 5,000 word geopolitical analysis that reads like it was written by a professor at a university or the head of a giant think tank in 5 seconds for free.</p><p>&#8220;Oh, but I can spot AI slop content!&#8221; Maybe you can right now, but the rate at which those models learn and refine and improve is exponential, so very soon you won&#8217;t be able to tell at all. </p><p>Soon, even as a chronically online digital native, neither will I. The comment sections of the internet are increasingly populated by people who couldn&#8217;t be bothered to think and used AI to sound like they did. And we can be all high and mighty about this, or we can accept it as our current reality which isn&#8217;t changing any time soon and will get worse and worse.</p><p>Even AI content generators don&#8217;t help - many of them think that the American Declaration of Independence was 100% written by AI. </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2

crisis of our era. It&#8217;s a a huge problem which the free market will reward hugely if someone can invent a solution. When everything becomes maximally persuasive through AI content, nothing is inherently trustworthy. Opinions, thoughts, analysis, will all soon collapse into nothing of value. That&#8217;s a huge problem and a huge issue that needs to be solved. If such an epistemic problem can be solved, it would obviously be of huge value to the free market. </p><div><hr></div><h1><strong>PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS</strong></h1><p>Prediction markets are simple. Don&#8217;t confuse them for &#8220;just gambling&#8221;. People thought the same about Cryptocurrency. Your article claims the US will strike Iran before March? Put money on it. You think Bitcoin hits $80K in April? Show me. You believe your geopolitical analysis is the most accurate and correct? Put your money where your mouth is. There is now a mechanism that translates that coherent internal belief into a financial position, tracked publicly, settled objectively. Do you see the value of that? </p><p>If someone with lots of followers and prestige and position from a think tank or other thought leader type organization comes out with a niche geopolitical analysis that sounds amazing, but DOESN&#8217;T have a publicly viewable prediction market bet on that outcome, then this instantly tells us that person doesn&#8217;t actually believe their own analysis. They&#8217;re not willing to put their money where there mouth is. So how confident should we, the readers be? </p><p>This changes everything about how we should follow information in the age of AI generated slop. AI&#8217;s don&#8217;t bet money on their own output. </p><p>When I cite Polymarket data in my financial astrology reports - and I&#8217;m doing so more regularly, I&#8217;m not citing it because betting markets are infallible and I&#8217;m some chronic gambler. I&#8217;m citing it because it represents another layer of valuable analysis and confluence in the aggregated global financial conviction of thousands of people who have skin in the game, better analysis than me, better access to something like an objective truth. </p><p>The way I see it, these markets essentially filter all of the analysis we as humans could possibly do on a situation before we feel confident enough to stake our resources on it. </p><p>I as an individual could put 20 dollars on bitcoin reaching a certain amount - the market gives that a certain weighting. A world class investment firm with access to quantum computers doing millions of analyses per second, and a team of world class psychics for all I care, can now put their analysis opinion on the line in the form of a huge prediction market bet, which gives a certain weighting to the percentage chance outcome. I can simply view the percentage chance of certain outcomes on the market. </p><p>See how much noise that cuts through so quickly? It removes all the BS. It requires us as a society to put our money where our mouth is. </p><p>The gambling objection is the first thing people raise, understandably. But it&#8217;s not like we put it all on red with these platforms - odds raise and decrease over time, we can take our stake out at any time, just like the stock market is a measure of conviction in the company.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

April</figcaption></figure></div><p>And think about it a bit more deeply - every thesis you hold about the world is already a bet, its already an investment in your worldview and level of education. When you believe inflation is coming and buy gold, that&#8217;s a prediction market position. When a Substack writer (myself included) tells you Bitcoin will rally in late April, that&#8217;s a claim about the future. </p><p>If the head of a think tank puts out an analysis on oil in the middle east, he&#8217;s putting a bet, an investment, in his worldview. He&#8217;s confident. There&#8217;s conviction there. So, we are always making predictions unconsciously (you don&#8217;t have to be an astrologer to do that) - prediction markets transform that unconscious bet in our worldview into accountability at scale. They reward accuracy rather than persuasive ability - the cost of which is approaching 0 through AI technology. </p><p>These prediction markets are, in a world drowning in AI generated confidence, one of the few mechanisms that can tell the difference between someone who actually believes what they&#8217;re saying and someone (or something) that is merely very good at saying it.</p><p>I&#8217;m reminded of a very powerful idea shared by the Indian Guru Sadhguru - he said that soon, there will be so much information in the world that we shouldn&#8217;t be suprised that people may deceide to end their lives because of it. </p><p>This sounds radical at first, but plausible the more you think on it. Is it good for our mental health to be flooded with the most accurate sounding AI generated analysis on earth 24/7? Who knows - something like a prediction market might let us view what the world thinks at a glance, without flooding our brain with endless information and landing us in a mental health crisis due to excessive information. It sounds radical, but it&#8217;s a real possibility in the coming years. </p><div><hr></div><h1><strong>THE URANUS IN GEMINI INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY</strong></h1><p>So there we have it - a huge problem in the making. And a lot of reward for anyone who provides a solution to that problem. Uranus in Gemini is providing a 7 year timeline for the maturation of technologies such as prediction markets.</p><p>You can&#8217;t yet buy shares in Polymarket or Kalshi directly.

the past 6 months (due to a risk-off move hitting fintech) it&#8217;s one of the few publicly tradeable Prediction Market Plays, because prediction markets listed in the &#8220;other&#8221; category on the app accounted for about $147 million in revenue, or about <strong>12% of total revenue and almost 19% of all transaction-based revenue in the 4th quarter of  2025</strong>. That&#8217;s a huge signal of where money is shifting!</p><p>Yes, Bitcoin was invented in 2009, but just as Uranus was first entering Taurus in 2018, Cryptocurrencies really exploded into the mainstream from then on, and now we&#8217;re seeing Uranus enter Gemini, the sign of instant information transfer, this April, for the next 7 years. From the start of Uranus in Taurus in 2018, to it&#8217;s departure in April 2026, the total crypto market cap rose roughly 15x from around 0.12 trillion to 2.4 trillion USD. </p><p>Therefore, the market right now could be seriously discounting $HOOD&#8217;s tradeable value in the hugely emerging Prediction Market space, alongside other fintech companies who are implementing this into their product or service.</p><p>$HOOD, alongside many other fintech companies implementing prediction markets, could be a great &#8220;shovels&#8221; play for making money from the technology that facilitates the solution rather than the bets themselves. Even Interactive Brokers has started expanding into this domain. Keep an eye on fintech companies building the rails for this new information economy. The picks and shovels play could be more reliable than the gold itself.</p><p>Beyond investment, there&#8217;s something more interesting on offer. We may be entering an era where your prediction market track record becomes a new form of social currency. Just as early Twitter follower counts or Facebook likes carried genuine social signal in 2010 before everyone had them (before they were gamed, bought, and rendered meaningless) a verified public prediction market record could become one of the few ways to demonstrate genuine analytical credibility in a world where words alone prove nothing.</p><p>On that note, for the sake of experiment, innovation and rebellion (Uranus in the 10th, what can I say?) I&#8217;m going to start experimenting with this myself. I currently keep my stock market portfolio and moves private, but I&#8217;ll likely be making more public prediction market positions based on my analysis in the coming months - small at first to test the waters, and maybe even tracking them publicly on this Substack. Not to prove anything in particular, but I think that this emerging &#8220;money where your mouth is&#8221; principle is one that will be increasingly relevant and needed in a society flooded with AI generated hyper-convincing analysis. If I&#8217;m wrong, I&#8217;ll have the most powerful motivator to learn more and refine my analysis.</p><h1>THE IMPERFECTIONS OF THE CURRENT TECHNOLOGY</h1><p>I appreciate this technology isn't perfect - we cannot ignore the whale effect, where a highly capitalized entity with a specific agenda can drop millions on a niche contract to temporarily manipulate the odds and manufacture a false 'glanceable truth.' However, even with these structural flaws like capital skewing probability, AI infiltrating the trading pool, and the limitations of binary resolution this emerging technology exists currently as &#8220;the worst it will ever be&#8221;. The financial filter remains our most compelling defense against an information sphere completely drowned in zero cost, hyper convincing AI slop. I hope it can be refined and improved further over the next 7 years to slay the epistemic issue of our era. </p><div><hr></div><p>There you have it. Uranus in Gemini. The information revolution&#8217;s second act. The age of accountability.</p><p>Don&#8217;t forget to go deeper into your spiritual practice and meditation during this time. Weak minds will succumb and be damaged by information overload. Strong minds, refined with mediation and spiritual practice, will be increasingly needed to survive the information onslaught. Meditation will be a necessity, not a luxury, and that&#8217;s how the universe makes us grow towards liberation.</p><p>Om Shanti,</p><p><strong>Rowan</strong></p><div><hr></div><blockquote><p>Disclaimer: This is not financial advice.

The March 13th Mars-Rahu Conjunction saw the attack by the US and Israel on Kharg Island, Iran&#8217;s key oil export infrastructure which handles roughly 90% of their crude oil. In true Mars-Rahu style, Trump announced they had &#8220;totally obliterated&#8221; every military target on the Island. Oil Prices went haywire, increasing about 20% over the month, and of course Trump&#8217;s inner circle were accused of insider trading just before certain announcements were made.</p><p>Only a few days later on March 18th , the new moon in Pisces, we saw Israels strike on the South Pars gas field, knocking out 12% of Iran&#8217;s gas production, causing immediate energy spikes, with retaliatory strikes from Iran against Qatari and Saudi Energy sites, further scaring the markets. </p><p>Trump claimed he didn&#8217;t know this was going to happen. </p><p>Then, in a moment only adequately described by the communication mess of the Mercury-Rahu conjunction in Pisces on March 23rd, Trump tweeted that talks with Iran were progressing, and we saw a huge candle form on the S&amp;P 500 index immediately, a rush of bullishness in the markets emerged despite Iran saying no such talks had taken place. One man&#8217;s tweets control the markets, and such power can easily be abused by his inner circle. </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"

In the Vedic tradition, a single word is rarely just a word, it is a semantic container that expands into a multitude of contextual meanings when unzipped. </p><p>In 1985, NASA researcher Rick Briggs published &#8220;Knowledge Representation in Sanskrit and Artificial Intelligence&#8221; in AI Magazine. Briggs argued that Sanskrit&#8217;s rigid, traditional grammatical analysis allows it to represent logical propositions with a level of precision that rivals the artificial languages used in modern AI. It is a language built for perfect knowledge representation.</p><blockquote><p style="text-align: center;"><em>&#8220;Sanskrit is more perfect than Greek, more copious than Latin, and more exquisitely refined than either.&#8221; - Sir William Jones</em></p></blockquote><p>When we apply this &#8220;Semantic AI&#8221; to the 60 year cycle, we discover that the year names aren&#8217;t poetic or random. They are diagnostic. They are technical descriptions of the years flavour.</p><p>Let&#8217;s look at a few examples where the code pops off the page with chilling accuracy.</p>

PAR&#256;BHAVA YEAR (&#2346;&#2352;&#2366;&#2349;&#2357;)</strong></h1><p>The two years that fall under the year of Rudra in the Yuga of Visvadeva are 1966 and 2026. This specific year is called Par&#257;bhava. In Sanskrit, this translates to defeat, failure, downfall, falling into non-existence, being overpowered, loss of status, or ruination.</p><p>We have already seen echoes of this energy, such as the Iran invasion, which has set the geopolitical and economic tone for the rest of the year. Rudra rules the destructive element, while Visvadeva rules the collective, universal aspect of the year. Therefore, this destruction will not be localized. This is an overarching theme that will impact us all financially. </p><p>Par&#257;bhava is the 40th year in the 60 year cycle. It marks the absolute end of the maturation and sustenance period ruled by Vishnu, and the beginning of the destruction and transformation period ruled by Shiva. Shiva initiates the transformation phase of the 60 year cycle by first putting the world into this state of Par&#257;bhava.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link
