On 19 October 1987, the stock market around the world collapsed in a single day. This day is known as ‘Black Monday’ in history. While on the one hand, technical and economic reasons were considered behind it, on the other hand, from the astrological point of view, the events of this day were quite interesting and rare. In today’s context, experts are warning of such recurrence. Let us understand this historical event deeply and compare on astrological grounds.
What happened in history?
Since the beginning of 1987, the stock market was growing rapidly. But on 19 October, Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) fell 22.6% in the same day, the biggest one -day decline ever. Around $ 1.7 trillion lost globally. Whose main economic reasons were-
- Program Trading: Computer -based trading systems triggers heavy sales when the market collapsed.
- Portfolio insurance: This strategy inspires more sales in the protection of falling stocks.
- Interest rates and dollar weakness: The increase in interest rates by the US Federal Reserve and the decline in the dollar increased the concerns of investors.
- Overwalld Market: Market prices were quite above their fundamental values.
To understand this phenomenon from the position of the planets, you can understand the position of the almanac and the planets of that day, that on that day i.e. on 19 October 1987, many negative coincidences were being made.

If you understand the situation of that day from Medini astrological, you will find that on 19 October 1987, Moon was transiting in Leo sign and Purva was in Phalguni Nakshatra. Purva Phalguni Nakshatra is associated with indulgence, performance and financial matters. When there is a moon in it, the market feelings become highly sensitive. Because the direct relationship of the moon is told with the mind.
On that day, three planets in Libra were formed the combination of Sun, Mercury, Venus. Libra zodiac is the amount of business, beauty, justice and balance. Coming together of these three planets together is a sign of imbalance and commercial illusion, especially when Venus is set or weak.
The combination of Mars and Ketu on 19 October 1987 (in Virgo), this combination is suddenly a fatal decision, breakdown, instability and technical failure. It is written in Medini Sutra- ‘Ketu-Mangal Samagme Vyapare Ksay: Appearance Bhavet’
Saturn was in Scorpio and Guru was in Aries, Saturn shows financial suppression and secret moves in Scorpio. At the same time, the Guru’s being in Aries makes him more fierce, which can lead investors towards extreme confidence or confusion. The same thing happened that day.
Whenever there is a change in the speed of Shani, then there is a big force in the market, one of the reasons for this is that Saturn is directly related to politics and the general public, so whenever Saturn changes, whenever the move of Saturn changes, politics and the mood of the people bring some big event within the nations.
Sometimes it also causes discontinuation of public within the country and tension on the border. In this, sin planets and other cruel planets act like ghee in the fire.
In Rahu Pisces, Rahu’s transit in Pisces sign gives hints of reality, investors may be attracted to wrong decisions. On 19 October 1987, Rahu was transiting in the amount of water element.
Can Black Mande be repeated in 2025?
Recently, a market expert has warned that the current signals are similar to 1987. He has feared a potential ‘bloodbath’ in the market. As a current risk, interest rates are reaching the highest level, due to which bond yields are increasing and there is pressure on the stock market. At the same time, American debt of more than $ 33 trillion, it can become a threat to market stability.
The possibility of political deadlock and government shutdown, the trust of investors stagger. Such situations continue to remain continuously, the latest example after Russia-Yuran is of Indo-Pak tension. Such sentiments affect the market, indicating overheep and potential decline. Although now there are security systems like ‘circuit breakers’ in the markets, experts are still advising vigilance.
Warnings of economic experts
