Financial Astrology Mercury-Mars Longitude Angle

9 oct 2021

Mercury-Mars angle indicator represent the geocentric longitude angular distance between Mercury and Mars with labels on the angles that indicate the astrological aspects used by financial astrologers to determine the energy trigger points. In financial astrology, Mercury rules trading, market transactions, commerce and negotiation. Mars rules impulsive/risky action, entrepreneurship, aggression, explosion and passion.

For any Mercury aspects indicator we recommend to use 4H resolution to locate the exact aspect culmination, this is because Mercury moves at an average geocentric speed of 1.6 degrees per day.

Due to the limited UTF (Unicode Transformation Format) support of classical astrology aspects symbols, we needed to use a custom subset to represent the aspects:
⊚ = 0 degrees angle (conjuction)
⧌ = 30 degrees angle (semi-sextile)
⧆ = 45 degrees angle (semi-square)
⨺ = 60 degrees angle (sextile)
⧄ = 90 degrees angle (square)
⨹ = 120 degrees angle (trine)
⧇ = 135 degrees angle (sesqui-square)
◭ = 150 degrees angle (quincunx or inconjunct)
⚇ = 180 degrees angle (opposition)

Note: The Mercury-Mars longitude angle indicator is based on an ephemeris array that covers years 2010 to 2030, prior or after this years the data is not available, this daily ephemeris are based on UTC time so in order to align properly with the price bars times you should set UTC as your chart timezone.
