Planetary time ratios, explained without the mysticism

What these ratios actually measure, how we test them, and the honest limits of the method.

A planetary time ratio is simply a proportion between recurring astronomical intervals. We use them the way a technician uses a moving-average length: as a measuring stick applied consistently and reviewed honestly.

How a ratio earns a place

Each candidate ratio is tested against a database of confirmed turns across instruments and years. It stays only if it clusters near turns more often than a random interval of the same length would.

  • Tested per instrument, then across instruments.
  • Judged on clustering, not on single dramatic hits.
  • Retired without sentiment when it stops clustering.

The limits

Time cycles indicate sensitivity, not direction. Direction comes from structure. Any study that promises certainty in either is selling comfort, not research.

Educational and informational content only. Astro time cycle studies indicate windows of market sensitivity, not guaranteed outcomes — always apply your own risk management.
