The Tulip Bubble Crash (1637)

In another thread, SteveS presents interesting parans coinciding with a stock exchange crash in the Vienna Markets.

I have heard of a peculiar economic boom-and-bust surrounding tulips in the Netherlands, a discussion of which can be found in Wikipedia here:

This is the Capsolar for the period.

Of course, the Sun-Neptune paran stands out first. In the Campanus mundoscope, Uranus is 7,29 below the Desc, just barely Foreground despite being 28 degrees from the Desc ecliptically. Looking at the chart in another way, in the Azimuth analog, Uranus is 1,20 from the Vertex. There is also the angular Sun-Saturn conjunction.

SteveS, what do you make of all this?

I think Jim’s recent posts and follow-up comemtaries on Bradley’s ‘Unveiling a New Tool’ in this topic is the single most important piece of astrological writing I have seen in my 40 years of studying the field of mundane astrology. It has unlimited possibilities/potentials for the experienced investor/speculator. Great example Derek!
