2018 World Series

[Jim Eshelman]

I forgot to do anything about this. Now that the Red Sox are up two games, we still might have something to learn from the charts.

The remaining games (if it goes al the way) are October 26, 27, 28, 30, and 31.

LA's CAPSOLAR has been poor all year, but not poor in a way that affects this sort of event. Neptune is on Descendant which if anything (in isolation) means crowd enthusiasm as a positive indicator. Boston's is dominated by Sun-Venus square Uranus on the angles, which shows excitement and pleasure (but also surprises and turn-overs - no clear indication of winners or losers).

I don't think the Cansolar should be consulted, since neither Capsolar is dormant, but I do notice LA has Mercury exactly rising and then a foreground Jupiter, while Boston has Saturn on IC. If we were to go by Cansolars (which I don't think we should), it would be a decisive indication of LA winning.

We should consult the Quarter chart, though. LA has Neptune setting in that as well. Boston has Sun-Pluto. Again, the Boston chart suggests upending expectations (which, at this point, would mean a Dodgers win).

LA can't win sooner than October 30. Nothing comes to LA's LA's CapQ angles between now and the end of the series, and nothing but Neptune transits the Capsolar angles. Consulting the CanQ, Mars on angles in the last days of the series is not favorable.

Boston can't win before October 27. They've already had Jupiter (and Mars + Jupiter) angular in the CapQ for the games they've won. Jupiter is next within 2° of a CapQ angle beginning October 30, closer on the 31st.

I will, therefore, predict that Boston will win the series on October 30 or 31 (game 7 more likely than game 6).

As usual, excellent analysis Jim! Thanks

Jim, after absorbing your post yesterday and sleeping on it, I awoke with the thought of looking at Boston’s Cap PSSI (mean rate) for the possible 7th game (Oct 31) of this series and a striking result appeared:
Boston Oct 31 Cap PSSI for 11:00 PM, using Janus software:
IC 01,02 Cap
Venus 02,39 Cap
This is a most interesting synchronicity when we see with Boston’s 2018 Capsolar itself, using Janus software:
IC 02,41 Cap
Venus 01,24 Cap
Note: Capsolar Venus has progressed to 02,39 Cap, 2 minutes of arc for an exact cnj with Boston’s Capsolar IC, using Janus software. This will be most interesting if this series does indeed go to the 7th game on Oct 31, but even if Boston wins in 6 games—still excellent orb symbolism for a Boston win.
*Solarfire calculates a Capsolar p. Venus for Oct 31:
02,25 Cap, whereas Janus calculates the same p. Venus at 02,39 Cap which happens to be exact cnj Solarfire’s Boston Capsolar IC at 02,39 Cap. Splitting hairs here but it really doesn’t matter which software is exact by true orb calculation.
Anyway, I find it most interesting Boston’s Oct 31 Cap PSSI is showing benefic p. Venus cnj Boston’s p. Cap PSSI IC, along with your analysis Boston’s Oct 31 benefit p. CapQ Jupiter on Boston’s CapQ IC.

This morning Boston was a -225 favorite to win this Series. If LA wins tonight I will check and post new odds tomorrow morning.

It happened way earler than i thought.

Yes, BUT, the CapQ Jupiter for Oct 31 (as you noted for your thread here for a Boston win) and Boston’s non-dormant Capsolar Venus for Boston itself are par-excellent planetary symbolism for this joyous (Jupiter) & celebratory-party (Venus) Parade event for the city of Boston:

World Series champs parade set for Wednesday (Oct 31, beginning at Noon).

Note with Boston’s 2018 Capsolar itself:
Capsolar Venus 01,25 Cap; Capsolar IC 02,39 Cap
IMO, it was Boston’s 2018 Capsolar itself which offered par-excellent winning/partying symbolism with its non-dormant Venus IC vs LA’s 2018 Capsolar. And we see p. Capsolar Venus on Oct 31 is partile cnj Boston’s Capsolar IC for this parting parade on Oct 31. Boston is well known for its famous ‘Duck Boat’ parades for their cherished Sport’s Champions, probably the # 1 city in USA for their joyous/ celebratory/partying parades for Sport’s Champions!

Yes, I saw this in news on the way in: Boston will have the big parade Tuesday or Wednesday.

And I've long said that predicting sports outcomes isn't about predicting actual winning, but rather about the feeling of losing vs. the time when people party and celebrate. The charts picked the party days!

Exactly Jim, probably more so with World Series Baseball, because of a series of games instead of just one game to determine the Champions. And according to what I am seeing online, the mayor of Boston announced the Parade will be on Wednesday the 31st.
