While conventional corporate decision-making primarily relies on data analytics, financial modelling, and market intelligence, emerging discussions have explored the role of alternative analytical frameworks in supporting strategic planning and organizational resilience. This study investigates the relationship between astrology and corporate sustainability by examining the influence of astrological cycles on corporate decision-making, leadership behaviour, business transformations, and sustainability-oriented initiatives. Adopting a multidisciplinary approach, the research integrates historical analysis, literature review, case study examination, and thematic analysis of astrology-based decision-making practices. The study evaluates major astrological cycles, including Mercury Retrograde, Saturn Returns, and Jupiter–Saturn Conjunctions, and explores their association with significant corporate and economic events across finance, technology, manufacturing, energy, and media industries over the past two centuries. The findings indicate recurring patterns between astrological cycles and periods of organizational restructuring, technological innovation, market volatility, sustainability transitions, and leadership transformation. Indian and global examples are analysed to illustrate how astrological interpretations have been incorporated into strategic thinking and business planning. The thematic analysis further reveals that astrology is often employed as a complementary framework for risk assessment, timing of strategic initiatives, leadership intuition, and long-term planning. While the study does not establish a causal relationship between planetary movements and corporate outcomes, it highlights astrology’s potential role as a non-traditional interpretive tool that may contribute to holistic decision-making processes. The research contributes to the growing discourse on alternative approaches to corporate strategy and sustainability by offering a novel perspective on the integration of traditional knowledge systems and contemporary management practices.\u003Cbr>Keywords: Astrology, Corporate Sustainability, Corporate Decision-Making, Strategic Management, Alternative Analytical Tools, Sustainability Movements, Leadership Decision-Making, Risk Management, Jupiter–Saturn Conjunction, Mercury Retrograde, Saturn Return, Industry-Specific Trends, Business Strategy, Corporate Governance, Organizational Resilience. |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| Date of Submission: 06-06-2026 | Date of Acceptance: 17-06-2026 |\n\nI. Introduction  \nCorporate sustainability has emerged as a key priority for organizations striving to balance economic growth with environmental and social responsibility. As businesses navigate complex global challenges such as climate change, resource depletion, and stakeholder expectations, strategic decision-making plays a crucial role in shaping sustainable practices. Traditionally, corporate decision-making has relied on data analytics, market trends, and financial modelling. However, there is growing interest in exploring unconventional approaches that incorporate intuitive and holistic methodologies. One such approach is astrology, an ancient system of knowledge that has been used for centuries to understand patterns, predict trends, and guide decision-making.  \nAstrology, rooted in the observation of celestial bodies and their influence on human affairs, offers a unique perspective on timing, cycles, and strategic planning. While mainstream business frameworks often dismiss astrology as a pseudoscience, a growing number of leaders and entrepreneurs are acknowledging its potential in shaping long-term business s","cbCaieEEzQ6Rzio1","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaieEEzQ6Rzio1","pdf",373838,"English","# I.
