The Solstice Trap: Decoding the ‘Geometric Time Bomb’ Ticking Under Oil

This is a critical “Time & Price” analysis for Crude Oil (WTI) for December 10, 2025.

I. Market Context: The “Neptune Junction”

• Current Price: WTI Crude is hovering near $58.90 – $59.10.
• The Critical Factor: Today, December 10, is arguably the most significant day of the year for Crude Oil.

• Neptune Stations Direct (29° Pisces): Neptune is the planetary ruler of Oil (liquids/illusion). It is stationing direct today at the very last degree of its home sign.
• Deep Insight: When the ruler of a commodity stations direct, the “Trend of Confusion” ends. If Oil has been drifting lower or chopping without direction, today marks the structural low or the start of a violent “Truth Move.”

II. Gann Theory Methods: The “Vibration of Fluids”

For Oil, we use the Square of 9 but adapted for lower integer prices (using 0.125 increments for higher sensitivity).

1. The Square of 9 (Intraday Calculation)

• Anchor Price: $58.90
• The Math: $\sqrt{58.90} \approx 7.674$

• Resistance 1 (45° Up): $(7.674 + 0.125)^2 = \mathbf{60.82}$
• Resistance 2 (90° Up): $(7.674 + 0.25)^2 = \mathbf{62.79}$
• Support 1 (45° Down): $(7.674 – 0.125)^2 = \mathbf{57.00}$
• Support 2 (90° Down): $(7.674 – 0.25)^2 = \mathbf{55.11}$

2. The “Death Zone” (Gann Range)

• Oil is currently trapped between the $57.00 support and $60.82 resistance.
• Gann Logic: A market trading in a narrow range during a “Station Direct” (today) creates a “coil.” The breakout from this $3 range will dictate the trend for the next 90 days (until the Spring Equinox).

III. Astrological Insights: Mars Entering the “Boardroom”

• Neptune (Chaos) vs. Mars (Action):

• Today (Dec 10): Neptune turns Direct. Expect high volatility, “stop hunts,” and fake-outs. The market is “slippery.”
• Dec 15 (Upcoming): Mars enters Capricorn. Mars is “exalted” (strongest) in Capricorn. This is an industrial, structural energy.
• Prediction: The confusion (Neptune) ends today. From Dec 15 onwards, Oil likely begins a steady, structural climb as “Smart Money” (Capricorn) accumulates physical contracts.

IV. Critical Synthesis: Day Time Pivots (Dec 10, 2025)

These levels are designed to capture the “Neptune Turn” volatility.

Level Type	Price (WTI)	Deep Analysis
Major Resistance	$60.82	The “lid” on the current range. A close above here confirms the Bull Run.
Gann Pivot	$59.45	Intraday equilibrium. Above this = Bullish bias for the session.
Current Magnet	$58.90	Neptune Base. Price orbits this level today as contracts roll over.
Trap Support	$57.00	The Buy Zone. If price spikes down here today, it is a “Liquidity Grab” before the trend change.
Structural Fail	$55.11	If this breaks, the structural bull case is void.

Critical Strategy:

Do not trade the breakout today. Neptune days are famous for “False Dawns.”

Instead, look for a Flush to $57.00 – $57.50. If price hits this zone and quickly reclaims $58.00, it is the perfect “Neptune Reversal” signal. You are buying the confusion before the Mars-in-Capricorn clarity arrives next week.
