Power Struggle in Iran
(This Post originally appeared on this site on July 10, 2026)
The Iranian situation has now bifurcated; broken apart into two factions: the moderates and the radicals.
We have seen this movie before. An iron-fisted ruler keeps all the political/religious/cultural factions in his country under control. The ruler is forcibly removed from power. A vacuum is created; the various factions cannot manage to get on the same page together. Things spiral out of control.
Iran has now broken into the moderate camp and the radical camp. The moderates engage in talks with the U.S. administration; progress is made. The radicals (IRGC members) meanwhile go stir crazy and start firing missiles at ships in the Strait of Hormuz and at U.S. military facilities in nearby Gulf countries.

WTI Oil futures follow two offsetting 58.65-day cycles plus an 88-day cycle. One of these 58.65-day cycles ends on July 18.
On July 19, a Bayer’s Rule 11-A projection lands.
August 3 and August 14 are two more Bayer’s Rule dates.
From the April 7 swing high, if one projects 2nd harmonic advances of heliocentric Mercury, the date of August 3 comes into focus.
The one thing planetary movements do for the trader/investor is they present future dates to focus on.
July 18 and 19 are week-end dates. Look for some kind of price reaction next Monday July 20. Then start to anticipate August 3.
If this conflict has any chance of settling down, the radicals must be brought under control by the moderates. The two dates for something to happen by are being dictated by the planets.
What Has Happened Since

The projected July 19 date turned out to be the geometric mean of the bullish run that lasted from July 6 to 23.
August 3-4 was a swing low on Oil prices.
August 14 was the geometric mean of the bullish run that lasted from early to August 20.
Right now, if one makes some Bayer’s Rule projections from recent pivot points (see above chart), it becomes evident that the first week of October will bring some pivot points on WTI Oil. What could happen in the coming 7 or so days?
