The Grahasangamam (planetary congregation) occurs during December 2019 (similar to 2008-09 when Nifty fell from 6357 to 2539).

However, it is advised that the investors/traders may take their positions based on their own convictions only.

The planetary positions given above are at the time of Sunrise in India(Kerala) and Moon's conjunction effect on markets may be seen in countries (Asia / Europe / US) where trading take places at the time of conjunction(10° - 0°). When the angular difference between the Moon and the planet at Sunrise is between 5 to 10 degrees and/or conjunction occurs in Rasis(constellations) other than the Sun's Rasi, there may be a delay up to 24 hours in the conjunction effect according to their positions {Note: expect only eighty percent accuracy in assumptions based on Moon's conjunction with Mars(-), Venus(-) and Jupiter(+) as some other astro factors may also influence the market}. Conjunction dates can be had from the table above. Figures given in brackets are Rasi number(0 through 11 starting from Aries), Degrees and Minutes.
