The Inflation Cycle

The inflation cycle is approximately 14 years in duration based on the 14 year Neptune in a zodiac sign.

Neptune in a Fire sign is a time of high inflation and high interest rates. The years from 1970 until November 1984 when Neptune was in fire sign Sagittarius, interest rates and inflation were 18% to 21%.

I gave one of my first financial workshop in November 1979 and said that the high inflation/high interest rate cycle would end November 1984. And right on schedule as Neptune moved out of fire sign Sagittarius and into earth sign Capricorn, interest rates and inflation began to drop for the next 14 years. When people would say interest rates can’t go any lower, they went lower. In the 1990s they were at 2%. In Japan, bank rates were in negative numbers.

When will we experience the next 14-year fire sign Neptune?  Neptune will begin its 14-year cycle in fire sign Aries in mid-1925 and exit 2039.
