At the end of year 2022 I completed a seven year research project focused on astro-economics and from that research produced a seven year forecast for the future price of gold that began year 2023. I finished writing The U. S. Zodiac Gold Report, Years 2023-29 at the end of January 2023 and published this report the following month.

On December 30, the last trading day of 2022, the (NYMEX gold) GC00 closed at $1,826.20. Despite many leading analysts’ bearish position on gold at the time, future stellar influences suggested an approximate market top for gold of $2,326 for year 2023. December 29, the last trading day of year 2023, the GC00 closed at $2,071.80. Certainly not a bullseye, but a shot that I’d say was at least on target. However, on April 5, 2024 gold closed at $2,345.40, hitting my mark roughly a quarter later than I had forecast. For year 2024 I forecast an approximate peak of $3,115 for gold. On December 31, 2024 the GC00 closed at $2,641.00. However, on March 28, 2025 gold topped at $3,114.30, and on March 28, 2025 the GC00 closed at $3,150.30, thus hitting my target again roughly 90 days later.

My forecast for gold for this year (2025) was for an approximate top of $5,427.00, requiring a move of $2,312 to the upside from $3,115. On Friday, December 26, 2025 the GCOO closed at $4,562. That means approximately 62.5% of my projected move to the upside for 2025 has so far taken place this year. It also means that if the same approximate 90-day lag to reach the projected top that we saw in both my 2023 and 2024 forecasts is in effect, then the rest of that move to the upside is likely to be realized by approximately the end of the first quarter, year 2026. In the case that $5,427 gold seems unrealistic remember that these projections were made three years ago when gold was roughly $1,800 per ounce and the current price is almost two and a half times that number.

In my analysis the charts of the stars for the times of the peaks and valleys in the prices of both silver and gold, as well as the charts of the stars for the times of major events regarding monetary policy as it relates to both gold and silver, I have become convinced that along with the staggering upside price potential for gold is an equally staggering upside price potential for silver. My assessment of the matter is this: ultimately, and while the price performance charts for either gold or silver are not likely to present a mirror image of the other, I am of the opinion that both precious metals will ascend to their respective peak prices during this bull market cycle in generally the same time frame (probably not more than within 6 months of each other) with this bull cycle reaching its peak by the end of the first quarter of year 2027.

Fear and greed are the primary motivations behind any mass move towards precious metals. While greed requires no other explanation than expectation of profits, that which induces fear is ordinarily associated with socioeconomic and geopolitical conditions involving massive inflation, domestic civil war, or the potential for war with or between foreign nations, and I am of the opinion that the stars are warning us that realization of all four of those things are well within the realm of possibility. However, during my research I have found an additional primary impetus behind “staggering upside price potential” for both gold and silver, the potential causative being tied to the aforementioned ‘massive inflation’ and manifesting in some form of official re-monetization of both gold and silver for the purpose of stabilizing the US Dollar, as well as other world currencies. I am also of the opinion that such re-monetization could occur before the end of year 2027.

I am of the opinion that Friday, December 26, 2025 marked the beginning of an acceleration in the rise of the price of gold due to the first (and possibly subtle) effects of a major stellar event culminating on Friday, January 9, 2026, with an additional (planetary) triggering effect taking place over the weekend (Saturday, Jan. 10). Clearly, and at the time this is being written (Monday, December 29, 2025) there is significant profit taking in both gold and silver today. Three planets take part in the January 9, 2026 stellar event that I believe constitutes the trigger for what I think will ultimately prove to be a staggering move to the upside for gold and silver prices, but in the initial stage of this stellar event, a fourth planet is soon to pass over the zodiacal degrees held by two of the bodies (astrological frustration) and delays the full bull-run-trigger effect by some measure of days due to this planet’s influence upon mass-psychology (often inducing a desire to take (tangibly realize) profits). While profit taking may continue up until January 9, 2026, I am confident that beyond that point the primary trend line will ascend. Be advised, I am NOT saying that the increase in the price of gold (or silver) is going to look like a hockey stick on the chart beginning December 26. I am, however, of the opinion, and highly confident in this opinion, that this January 9, 2026 stellar event will act as a sort of cosmic trigger for gold and silver reaching ultimate peak prices during this bull market cycle, which I believe will will top during or shortly after the first quarter of year 2027.

In summary, and as it related to the effects of the stars upon the price of gold and silver, consider Friday, December 26, 2025 as the day the coal beneath the boiler is being lit. While the piston may or may not move on that specific day, on or near January 9, 2026, that machine is going to start to shake the ground. My $5,427 gold forecast for 2025 may be a bit late, but it is certainly on its way here.

(I do not as of yet have a projected high for the price of silver.)
