Please spare us the cultural prejudices & insults. The point, and one followed by those who study such matters, is that Mars, transiting Jupiter & Saturn, all within Taurus, happens to coincide w/current market events. Now this may hold no meaning to you because like your handle says, like to 'keepitsimple'. Others however, have the ability to embrace a multiplicity of qualities, whose collective imagery may provide an archetypal background upon which events are seen to play out. Now, if you want to do some real work, & learn something instead of parroting back ignorant collective bias as knowledge, go buy the book 'Key Words for Astrology' by Hajo Banzhaf & Anna Gaebler. It will cost you about $17, & provide you with a clear, concise reference for understanding what the various planetary images, alone & in combination mean. Words, act as images, and as such are cultural containers. The astrological language is the oldest and as such has become associated w/certain imagery. Weather you believe it, or understand it, is not important, but the FACTS remain that the current celestial transits, correspond in an uncannily accurate way w/the associated imagery & actions playing out within the stock markets. The corresponding archetypal imagery presented by the houses, aspects & transits reflects accurately the collective psychological challenges presented within the current market environment. Mars was conjunct Saturn on Friday, Monday (moonday) it will be 1 degree off & moving away. Does this correspond w/a bottom, who knows, but don't pretend that your lack of understanding pertaining to the oldest of knowledge systems, precludes those who value such, from gaining insight provided by the complex imagery associated w/astrology.
