Week 5 Time Zone Adjustments and a New Approach
Whoops—turns out I wasn’t using the correct time zones for my NFL predictions! Right on cue, Jupiter went retrograde in Gemini, giving me the perfect opportunity to slow down and review these details. Moving forward, I’ll be waiting for the official kickoff time before casting charts. There’s no point in predicting if the game is delayed—minutes can make a big difference. This means Sundays are going to get a lot busier for me!
In addition to this, I’ll also start including any aspect to the angles, not just benefic placements, to see how they influence the game’s outcome.
I did a retroactive prediction for the 49ers vs. Seahawks using the correct kickoff time of 5:16 PM Pacific (not 6:15 PM as shown on ESPN). Based on the actual time and aspects to the angles, I predicted the 49ers would be victorious. Sure enough, their Jupiter trine the IC and sextile the MC at game start overpowered the Seahawks' Venus sextile the IC and trine the MC. I made this prediction before knowing the outcome!
From now on, I’ll be much more diligent in tracking all actual times and kickoffs to ensure accurate predictions. Let’s see how this refined approach improves future results!
