An in-depth interview with financial astrologer, Christeen Skinner in which we look at some of the key upcoming economic and geopolitical trends from the beginning of August 2025 onward through the lens of astrology.
Today, we’re looking ahead to the autumn eclipses, which are due to take place on the 7th and 21st of September 2025. These mutable soli-lunar events represent a marked shift away from the cardinal series of eclipses we’ve been experiencing since 2022. And when viewed in tandem with the dramatic aspect patterns being formed by the outer planets, especially between 3-9 August 2025, they may point to some subtle but important trend changes between now and the end of the year.
With me to discuss their significance in terms of geopolitics and the world of finance, is Christeen Skinner, author of The Financial Universe, and the owner of Cityscopes Ltd. Christeen has been advising traders and CEOs since the 1980s, and brings her well-honed financial nous and astrological experience to bear in this discussion, as we try and make sense of the current – and upcoming – astrological weather.
Join us as we analyse everything from Trump tariffs to Gann cycles, the impact of AI on jobs, and the state of world markets, as well as some of the upcoming political and economic trends likely to change or be set in motion at the autumn 2025 eclipses.
A must-watch for astrologers, news junkies, political pundits, finance buffs, and anyone in the business of trend forecasting.

- When is the best time of year to sell gold and silver?
