The rupee sank to a fresh two-year low of 66.74 per dollar. The selloff in markets was triggered by a global meltdown in risk assets.
To understand the crash we need to understand the chart of India , ruling Dashas planet position and planetary configuration in the transit on the day of August 24 , 2015
Let analyze firstly the chart of India :
Date : August 15 , 1947
Time : 00:00:00 (12 AM)
Place : Delhi , India
Some features of the chart :
a) Moon in Pushyami Nakshatra of Saturn in its own Sign of Cancer but weak due to waning Moon of Krishna Trayodasi and posited in the 6th house of Sun Navamsa with Ketu being the biggest enemy of Moon.
b ) Sun in Asresha Nakshatra of Mercury
c ) Lagna in Kritika Nakshatra of Sun (implicitly lagna is impacted by Mercury)
d) Dasha at the time of Birth : Saturn (95 % remaining)
e ) Lagna is Taurus its lord Venus in the nakshatra of Mercury and yogakaraka Saturn is also in same nakshatra but both are in the state of combustion
f ) Jupiter being in its own nakshatra lying in the 6th house of his enemy Venus and in the Navamsha of Venus and here not remains benefic as owing the 8th and 11th house rather acts as a functional malefic.
g ) Rahu in the Nakshatra of his biggest enemy Sun and exalted in the Lagna and in the Navamsha of Saturn.
h) Mars is representing the Foreign inflow in the country and FII activity.
Its clear the all the planets are majorly impacted by the Mercury position in the transit along with the position of Saturn as both have nakshatra exchanges
Now let focus on the Mercury :
1 ) Mercury being the Lord of 2nd house of monetary strength of the country or strength of currency and lord of the 5th house of speculation or stock market or trading activity.
2 ) Mercury in the state of combustion lying in its enemy sign cancer and lying in the Navamsha of Mars (another enemy) . So clearly Mercury is not having enough strength and seems to be weak.
3 ) 2nd house is making Papa madhyastha yoga with the malefic being 12th Rahu and 2nd to it Sun and Mars , Moon and Mercury, so economically strength of monetary system is not so strong or lacks the strength financially.
4) Rahu a deceptive planet karaka for Corruption , Scam and unlawful activity is dominating in the Lagna of country India chart . Unfortunately India has lost huge amount of uncountable money in the corruption , scams and in the name black money or money in the foreign country.
Now lets look at the transit state of the planets on the day of 24th August 2015 :
5 ) In the transit Moon in the state of debilitated was passing through the Jyestha nakshatra of Mercury and Mercury was transiting through the gandanta situation or in the state of dead.
6 ) Saturn and Moon were transiting 5th from the natal Moon and Sun so representing the state of market as Saturn lying the house of enemy and Moon in the debilitated state making 5th house from natal Moon and Sun very weak .
7 ) Mercury conjoins the Rahu in the 5th house of speculation , so Rahu here catalyses the effect of market activity , Very weak situation of Mercury leads to massive pressure on the market and Rahu amplified the effect of selling.
8 ) Mars being the indicator of the foreign inflow being debilitated in the natal sign of Moon and Sun , so clearly shows a very weak sign of FII inflow in India or rather FII selling in the market.
9 ) Venus being the lagna lord was transiting through the Asresha another nakshatra of Mercury in the natal Moon and Sun state were even not able to help in recovering the pressure in the market.
10 ) On the day of 24th Aug 2015 , from the Dasha system condition was as follow :
Sun > Venus > Ketu > Rahu > Venus > Saturn ( from 10:27 AM to 12:30 PM )
Sun > Venus > Ketu > Rahu > Venus > Mercury ( from 12:30 PM to 14:22 PM)
Sun > Venus > Ketu > Rahu > Venus > Ketu ( from 14:22 PM to 3: 10 PM)
Dasha of Sun was going through in the Antar of his biggest enemies and especially the time of Mercury created panic selling in the market.
11 ) What we have ended up in the session is the around $1bn net selling of the FII and making the market fall of 1600 points and fall over of 5.94 % and Banking index fell around 8.5 % and rest all the indexes closed in the big red, over a 7 lacs crore of investor's money swept out from the market , making a another Black Monday in the history of Indian Stock market and all across the world has seen one of the biggest market fall.
Intraday chart of Sensex Aug 24 , 2015
12 ) Since Jupiter is passing through a sign of Fire and Saturn passing through its enemy sign being 5th to the natal Moon and Sun , markets would remain slow in the coming time , don't expect exuberance in the market and as these two are most critical planets for the overall formation of market strength.
13 ) Saturn is passing through the watery sign of his enemy and being karaka of Crude Oil , we have seen Crude prices crashed in the past 6 months and also its also a symbol of iron related metals , we would see Commodities market falling towards their lowest level.
Be very cautious while investing in the market and as the market is not a game for the speculators, its supposed to run in the longer term , be very smart in taking the steps.
Divinity has given us Eyes of the Vedas to look into the deeper analysis of any big event occurring in the world. We should follow the rules smartly but not blindly.
