Scottsdale-based advisor Grant Pieretti told a client Monday to delay a planned $60,000 withdrawal until “the current retrograde at least passes the shadow phase,” a window he estimates to last at least three weeks. “Mercury governs contracts, transactions, and technology. You do not want to wire funds while we’re in the middle of that mess,” Pieretti said, referencing no economic indicator. Pieretti, who holds a Series 65 and a $9.99-a-month astrology app subscription, has reorganized the firm’s rebalancing calendar around the lunar cycle and describes his approach as “holistic.” The client, who needed the funds for a long-awaited kitchen renovation, has rescheduled his countertop installation to accommodate the position of Mercury.
