Why this exists

Have you ever come across Instagram reels or tweets saying Mercury retrograde is going to hit the stock markets? Ever wondered — do the planets in the sky really move the markets?

Rationally, it sounds far-fetched at first glance. And all they say is that Mercury retrograde is going to reverse the markets, or that a Moon–Mars conjunction is going to crash them. But I never saw any actual data behind those claims. No count of how often it actually held, and no count of how often it did not. No average, no probability, nothing. Just a claim you cannot check. And that is what this site exists to fix.

But you know what? The claim is checkable. Every planet’s position can be computed to the minute, for any date, centuries in either direction. Market price history is a public record.

So we built this site to check those claims. And then we thought: why not open it to everyone, so anyone can test a claim they were told — or one of their own. Every page here asks the same question. Do planetary events really move the markets?

We are exploring the data and learning from it too. We are curious whether there is any real pattern, or any relationship at all, between planetary events and market movements.

If you are curious as well, explore the data and tell us what you find. If a pattern turns up, we would love to hear about it. Let us find out together whether the relationship is real.

We are not here to tell you what to buy or sell. We are here to show you the data and let you make your own decisions. We are not financial advisors, and this site is not financial advice. It is a tool for checking claims — theirs, and yours.

So what is this, and where do you start?

Celestial Market Lens measures what markets actually did around planetary events. Two records, read side by side: where the planets were, and what price did. What comes back is counts, averages and confidence intervals you can go and check for yourself.

Most people call this financial astrology. We treat it as a measurement problem. The positions are computed, the prices are historical, and every number here is arithmetic over those two records. Nothing else goes in.

Nothing here forecasts. Everything below takes one screen and tells you what it answers, how to drive it, and where it can quietly mislead you. That last part is the half worth reading twice. You can read them in order or land on whichever one you need — each stands on its own.

The method

Three steps, in order

Three screens, in this order: see the sky, count what markets did, then find out whether you could have traded it. Each one hands your selection to the next, so you never rebuild a query by hand.

01Sky

Pick any date and see exactly where the planets were. Check whether anything notable happened that day — a conjunction, an ingress, a planet turning retrograde — and watch it happen rather than just read its name.

What is happening next?

02Explorer

One day looked interesting. Now count every other day in the record that looked the same, and see what markets actually did.

What happened historically?

03Backtest

A pattern is not a trade. Give it an entry, a stop and an exit, then see every trade it would have taken.

Is this even tradable?

Before the method

Sounds complicated, or you're not sure what to look at first? Open the Dashboard. Pick a day and it lists every planetary condition active on it, each carrying what the market has actually done under it before — which way it leaned, how often it gapped, how choppy it got. It's the one screen that hands you a question instead of asking you to bring one.

Dashboard

Every planetary condition active today, each carrying how it has behaved historically — the starting point when you don't yet know what to look at.

What should I explore?

Around the practice

Not steps

These sit around the research rather than being a fourth step of it, so they are listed here, not numbered.

Upcoming events

Everything else here looks backwards. This is the one screen that looks forward — what's coming, and exactly when.

Community

A noticeboard, not a feed. Anyone can read without an account; anyone with one can post or reply.

Reference

The full method

Every formula this site uses, each followed by the same calculation done on real numbers — and then the part worth your time: about 424 planetary conditions are live on a single trading day, and you can go and read whether the whole configuration predicts the move.

Reading the numbers

Every statistic on this site, built up from scratch — and every formula followed by the same calculation done on real numbers.

What does this metric mean?

Celestial Market Lens measures what markets did around historical planetary events. That is a description of the past. It is not a prediction, not a recommendation, and not investment, financial, legal or tax advice. Past results do not tell you what will happen next, and you are responsible for anything you do with money.
