Crash and Burn?

[ari_ormstunga]

Man, to think I read the astrology for this New Moon as being positive for the economy and tech stocks!

The be clear, I know the economy has been in the dumpster for most of the country for years, if not decades. It's just amusing how utterly wrong my prediction was. Maybe all that activity in the 8th (house of death... and foreign money) was pointing at Japan. No idea why exalted Mercury ruling the second house would be an indicator of a stock market crash. Maybe it will spike back up by the end of the month...

I'm not really too bothered, since I don't have stocks... just maybe some egg on my face. We'll see!

Though it did coincide with Mercruy going retrograde

Very true! It had stationed but didn't go retrograde until a bit after the new moon was exact. I've noticed sometimes things kick off, astrologically speaking, a bit before the aspects fully come together. I guess I'll see how the rest of the month plays out and adjust accordingly.
