Paul Volcker Rectification Case Study

In this subscriber-only video. I take Paul Volcker’s birth record, 10:30 a.m. in Cape May, and explain why it does not work in my rectification process. I propose a radically different time—still a day chart—of 6:34:22 PM, just before sunset. Using Stage I rectificational tools, I confirm the diurnal sect, which is common to both times, by testing Firdaria periods against times when Jupiter, the victor, is a Major or Minor Firdaria period ruler. Paul Volcker’s 12-year Major Jupiter period, beginning on 4-Sep-1978, contains his entire tenure as Fed Chairman and his subsequent prominence in financial media.

Zodiacal Releasing from Scorpio is the best match to career milestones, as it links the first cracks in the Bretton Woods system (L1CP-L2CA-Foreshadowing) to the Nixon Shock ending Bretton Woods (L1CP-L2CA-Loosing of the Bond) and Volcker’s Saturday Night Surprise, which instituted a period of high interest rates to quell the inflation that followed the end of Bretton Woods (L1CP-L2CP-Completion). While Scorpio is not necessarily the sign of the Lot of Spirit—it could reflect releasing from other lots in Scorpio—I do anchor the rectification with the Lot of Spirit in Scorpio using these findings. The precision of both the Loosing of the Bond and Completion events is notable.

Profecting the Ascendant through the Virgo stellium occurs during summer 1982, when the Latin American debt crisis began. The stellium includes Venus-Virgo-retrograde, a significator of financial scandal.
