The Financial Eclipse of 21st September
Virgo, Liquidity and the Markets Under the September 21st Solar Eclipse
Partial Eclipse of The Chart (Sorry)
Astrology is signalling a potential financial shakeup affecting both traditional markets and crypto. With Uranus retrograding in Gemini, the Solar Eclipse in the final degree of Virgo on September 21, and the Saturn-Neptune conjunction, the astrology points toward volatility, liquidity stress, and systemic shifts.
This week, the FED will decide on interest rates, and crypto Twitter is hyped for an immediate rally. But remember: a rate cut signals macro weakness, and crypto now mirrors the broader market. Crypto is the mainstream financial system now, it’s just being made “official” around 2026 to 2027. This unique eclipse suggests both sharp moves up and down - a classic hallmark of Eclipse season noise and volatility.
Don’t discount eclipses. Days after the 7th September total lunar eclipse in Pisces, we saw the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the chaos that came from that event.
Uranus Retrograde in Gemini: Disruption on the Horizon
Uranus governs disruption, sudden revelations, and systemic resets. Its cycles (~84 years orbit, ~7 years per zodiac sign) have historically aligned with transformative US financial moments:
1941–1948: WWII and the Bretton Woods Agreement, cementing the US dollar as global reserve currency. Uranus was in Gemini.
1858–1865: American Civil War, issuance of greenbacks, creation of the national banking system. Uranus was in Gemini.
1774–1782: American Revolution, Continental Dollar issued. Uranus was in Gemini.
Uranus retrograde in Gemini now indicates that markets may see unexpected reversals, recalibrations, or shocks, particularly affecting monetary policy, currency, and systemic liquidity. It’s almost guaranteed to shift us towards a Digital Dollar or Digital Currency system during the 7 year transit of Uranus in Gemini that ends in 2033. So with that transit setting the stage, we can zoom into our Solar Eclipse event.
Virgo Solar Eclipse and the Final Degree
Virgo = systems, analysis, and technical complexity. The daily grind. Financial markets. This eclipse takes place at the last degree of Virgo, signalling a sense of “finality.” Could this event herald the official beginning of the longer term decline of the dollar as we know it?
Historical precedents of financial crises linked to Virgo’s final degree:
