📈 THE 7-YEAR CRISIS CYCLE

🪐 Every 7 years, retrograde Mercury meets the Sun in air signs of the Zodiac. When did this happen in the recent past and when will it happen next?

1975–1982–1988–1995–2002–2009–2015–2022–2028

👉 Now take a look at the years of major global financial crises and market crashes. Here's a short list of the relatively recent ones:

1973–1980–1987–1994–2001–2007–2014–2020–202?

☝️ Looks like a 7-year crisis cycle with a fairly predictable beginning (tight planetary setup 1.5–2 years before the aspect) and a predetermined ending (the crisis-resolution aspect ☿r☌☉).

1973–1975 – Oil crisis
1980–1982 – Double recession
1987–1988 – Black Monday
1994–1995 – Bond market crisis
2001–2002 – Dot-com bust & 9/11
2007–2009 – Subprime mortgage crisis
2014–2015 – China Syndrome
2020–2022 – Inflation shock
2026–2028 – something’s coming...

☝️ By the way, the Panic of 1857 – the first global financial crisis – also fits the 7-year cycle pattern.

⚠️ The ☿r☌☉ conjunctions in air signs tend to mark the end of crashes and the start of new 4-year cycles. These are ideal moments for long-term investing.

👉 In upcoming posts I’ll break down past crises and this planetary aspect in the context of market behavior and entry timing. At the very least, the time curtain over 2026–2028 is already slightly lifted.
