The Context of 2021
In May 2021, the crypto market suffered one of the fastest crashes in its history. Many trader were caught by surprise, but the stars had sent clear signals weeks before.
The Saturn-Uranus Square
2021 was dominated by the square between Saturn (restriction) and Uranus (rebellion/crypto). This tension created an environment of instability where any excess leverage was severely punished.
The May Alignment
A few days before the crash, Marte was entered in a position of direct challenge to Bitcoin’s birth configuration, while Mercury began its pre-retrograde slowdown phase. It was the “perfect storm.”
Lessons Learned
This case study teaches us that when multiple heavy planets are in conflict, market confidence is fragile, and a single piece of news (or a tweet) is enough to trigger a domino effect.
Conclusion
Studying the astrological past is the only way not to repeat the same mistakes in the next market cycle.
