Despite the cost-of-living crisis and record debt levels, global stock markets have been pushing record highs for many months. Powered by the AI Boom, the US stock market has risen 36% in just over six months.

Some economists are predicting that a significant correction is on the horizon. On October 8, Jamie Dion said the chance of the US stock market crashing is far greater than many financiers believe.

Numerous astrological factors combine in late November 2025 to increase the risk of a stock market crash.

Astrology of a Stock Market Crash

Uranus trine Pluto is responsible for the AI Boom. Althoug not exact until next year, it came within 0°05′ orb on September 18, 2025. Since then, it has been waning, and by the end of November 2025, the orb will be 2°51′. So this driver of booming tech stock prices is losing steam.

Uranus sextile Neptune from August 2025 to June 2027 is responsible for the generational speculation and excited optimsim. It climaxes for the second of five times on November 20, 2025.

Jupiter trine Saturn is also an indicator of wealth accumulation. It creates a balance between optimism and realism, and between enthusiasm and self-control. It gives a long-term perspective with a focus on steady, sustained growth. This aspect occurs three times from August 2026 to July 2027. However, it comes within 0°09′ orb on November 17, 2025.

Retrograde Planets

The retrograde motion of planets indicates introspection, slowing and reversing. Mercury rules trade, and Jupiter rules growth. Mercury is retrograde from November 9 to 29; Jupiter is retrograde from November 11, 2025, to March 10, 2026.

Therefore, November 11 to 29 is a high-risk time for the stock market because both Mercury and Jupiter are retrograde. In fact, five planets are in retrograde motion from November 11 to 27. This occurs only 4% of the time. It is a time of uncertainty and strange events when the world appears to slow down.

Mercury Opposite Uranus

On November 19, 2028, Mercury is opposite Uranus. It causes nervous anxiety, questioning, uncertainty, insecurity, and a tendency to seek alternatives to the status quo. With both planets retrograde, it could cause sudden shocks, changes in opinion, impulsive reactions, and a complete reversal of current trends.
      Mercury conjunct fixed star Toliman (29♏47): Changeable, vacillating, fault-finding, spur-of-the-moment decisions.

Summary

The Magic Triangle from 2025 to 2028 could see the AI Boom continue. But Uranus trine Pluto waning suggests the AI Boom is temporarily losing steam.

Mercury and Jupiter are retrograde from November 11 to 29.

Jupiter trine Saturn, climaxing on November 17, brings balance, prudence, and a sense of reality.

Mercury opposite Uranus on November 19 creates anxiety, unexpected shocks and impulsive reactions. The star Toliman increases the risk of a change in views about the stock market.

The New Moon on November 20 at 28♏12 amplifies the opposition to Uranus.

Uranus sextile Neptune on November 20 represents a peak in generational speculation and excited overoptimism.

These astrological factors occurring simultaneously in November 2025 could trigger the bursting of the AI Bubble and a stock market crash.

The highest risk period is November 17 to 20.
