In Mundane Astrology, finance, stock markets, and economic cycles are analyzed through planetary positions, aspects, and house activations.
- 2nd House: national wealth, financial resources, commodity markets
- 8th House: banking, credit, debt, taxation, economic redistribution
- 10th House: government economic policies, financial regulations, market oversight
- Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury, Venus, and Mars: key planets influencing financial trends
By tracking transits, progressions, and eclipses, astrologers can forecast market booms, recessions, currency shifts, and national economic stability.
