What Just Happened
On January 18, the Moon went dark in Capricorn at the exact spot where Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars are already sitting. Five planets crammed into about 8 degrees. In Vedic market timing, this kind of concentration is rare and acts like compressed energy waiting to release.
Mars is exalted in Capricorn right now, operating at maximum strength. When this happens, institutional money historically flows into hard assets, industrial metals, and precious metals. The pattern has worked about 75-80% of the time over three decades.
