Open How to use this book

• Use the Index Summary or simply page through the book in thumbnail view to find a project of interest.
• Copy the data in any preparatory .csv file by selecting the text in the gray box and pasting it into your chart of spreadsheet software. Save the file as a .csv type of file and with the same name. You should know it is preparatory because it precedes the Python code that ends in .py.
• For the Python code that comes next, similarly copy the text in the gray box and paste into your choice of Python. I recommend Thonny for people just starting out. If you are using Thonny, save the file that you just pasted (by going to File > Save up in the menu bar) and then run the Python file by pressing F5 or clicking on the green arrow play icon up top. If you are a first-time user of Python, you likely will need to install packages by using the menu system. Consult Thonny refer

Project 01: Do Ultra-Wealthy Individuals Share Astrological Birth Patterns?

Research Question

Do ultra-wealthy individuals' birth charts show planetary placements that deviate meaningfully from what random chance — corrected for the real calendar of human births — would predict?

Hypothesis

If astrology captures something real about individual destiny or character, a group selected for extreme financial success should show non-random clustering in planetary placements compared to the general population baseline.

The Role of the 152M-Birth Dataset

The CDC/NCHS natality records (152,273,157 births across 1970–2014) are not a test group. We are not testing whether ordinary people are bo

Results: Temporal Pattern Analysis in Birth Data Distributions (1970-2014)

Analysis Overview

We analyzed 14,610 days of ACTUAL US daily birth counts (total 152,273,157 births) sourced from CDC/NCHS (1970-1988, 1994-2003) and SSA (2004-2014).

• Scope: Moon Sign (Tropical), Moon Sign (Vedic), and Tithi (Vedic Lunar Day).
• Objective: Test for any significant deviation in birth volume based solely on the Moon's position or phase.

Key Findings

1. Moon Signs (Tropical)

Result: NULL (< 0.3% Deviation) The Moon's placement in the Tropical Zodiac shows deviations indistinguishable from random noise.

• Highest: Libra (+0.29%), Leo (+0.21%)
• Lowest: Pisces (-0.31%), Virgo (-0.17%)
• Conclusion: There is no "Fertility Sign" in the Tropical Zodiac.

2. Moon Signs (Vedic/Sidereal)

Result: NULL (< 0.4% Deviation) The Vedic Zodiac (shifted ~24 degrees) also shows no significant pattern.

• Highest: Libra (+0.39%), Can

Project 02: Planetary Cycles and Market Volatility

Source: bigastrologybook.com/2/research/19/project-2 Archive Date: 2026-03-21 Book: The Big Astrology Book of Research by Renay Oshop Dataset: 18,869 trading days (1950–2024) — Yahoo Finance + Swiss Ephemeris

---

Research Question

Is there a measurable, statistically robust correlation between major planetary cycles — particularly Jupiter-Saturn — and changes in stock market volatility or returns?

Hypothesis

Major planetary cycles, especially the ~20-year Jupiter-Saturn synodic cycle, show statistically significant correlation with economic indicators beyond what would be expected by chance.

---

Why This Question Matters

Financial astrology is one of the oldest practical applications of astrological thinking, and one of the most testable. Unlike personality traits or life outcomes, market data is publicly available, precisely timestamped,

Results: Planetary Cycles with Economic Indicators

Overview

This study analyzed 18,869 trading days (1950-2024) of real market data (S&P 500, VIX, Gold, Crude Oil) to examine correlations between Jupiter-Saturn planetary cycles and market performance. This iteration represents the "Full Model" using advanced econometric techniques.

Data Sources

• Market Data: Yahoo Finance (S&P 500 ^GSPC, VIX ^VIX, Gold GC=F, Crude Oil CL=F)
• Planetary Data: Swiss Ephemeris (Jupiter-Saturn "Orb Degrees" from Exact Aspect)
• Timeframe: 1950-2024
• Methodology: ARIMA, GARCH, Granger Causality, Out-of-Sample Validation, Bootstrapping

Project 03: Lunar Effects on Biological Events

Source: bigastrologybook.com/2/research/19/project-3 Archive Date: 2026-03-21 Book: The Big Astrology Book of Research by Renay Oshop Dataset: 156,198,246 US births across 14,975 days (1969–2014)

---

Research Question

Do lunar phases — or the Moon's position in the zodiac — measurably influence the timing of spontaneous human biological events?

Hypothesis

The Moon's phase (especially the Full Moon at 180°) and zodiacal position trigger statistically significant deviations in the daily rate of biological events beyond what chance and known confounds would produce.

---

Why This Question

The "Full Moon Effect" is one of astrology's most culturally embedded claims — and one of the most persistently believed in medicine. ER nurses, obstetricians, and police dispatchers have long claimed that full moons bring chaos. Decades of studies have produced

Results: Lunar Effects on Hospital Admissions

Analysis Date: January 21, 2026 Dataset: US Daily Births (1969-2014) Sample Size: 156,198,246 events Duration: 14,975 days

1. Executive Summary

After analyzing 156 million biological events over 45 years—controlling for weekly, seasonal, and generational trends—we found no statistically significant lunar or zodiacal effect on event frequency.

The "Anomaly Ratio" (deviation from expected daily volume) remained effectively 1.00 across all lunar phases and zodiac signs.

2. Lunar Phase Analysis (Scientific/Tropical)

Hypothesis: Full Moons (180°) trigger more biological events.

Metric	Result	Interpretation
Full Moon Ratio	1.001	Admission rates during Full Moons are 0.1% above average (noise).
New Moon Ratio	1.000	Exactly average.
Max Deviation	+1.2%	Observed at various random degrees, not consistently at phases.
Visual Trace	Flat

A rigorous, detrended analysis of daily biological events (US Births 1969-2014)
relative to Lunar Phase and Sidereal Position.

METHODOLOGY:
1. Load 45 years of daily event data (US Births).
2. DETRENDING: Remove long-term trends, weekly cycles, and annual/seasonal cycles.

3. ANALYSIS:
   - Variable 1: Lunar Phase Angle (0-360) = Sun-Moon Separation.
   - Variable 2: Lunar Sidereal Position (0-360) = Moon longitude in Lahiri Zodiac.
   - Variable 3: Lunar Tropical Position (0-360) = Moon longitude in Tropical Zodiac.
4. VISUALIZATION:
   - Raw means vs Detrended deviations.
   - No rolling averages.

Project 04: Who Believes in Astrology, and Where?

Source: bigastrologybook.com/2/research/19/project-4 Archive Date: 2026-03-21 Book: The Big Astrology Book of Research by Renay Oshop Datasets: Pew Research Center (N=4,729) + Google Trends state-level interest + US Census demographics

---

Research Question

What geographic, demographic, and cultural factors predict interest in and belief in astrology across the United States? Can the variation between states be explained by measurable demographic variables?

Hypothesis

Astrological interest varies systematically by geography and demographics — and those patterns, once mapped, reveal something meaningful about the cultural function astrology serves in contemporary America.

This project uses two distinct data sources that measure two different things, and it's worth being precise about them upfront:

Overview

This study analyzed the geographic distribution of astrological interest across 50 US states using Google Trends data and Pew Research Center survey results.

Data Sources

• Primary: Google Trends data for "horoscope" searches by state (2023)
• Survey Data: Pew Research Center (2017-2018)
• Demographics: US Census Bureau state statistics

Key Findings

Demographic Correlations with Astrological Interest

Variable	Correlation (r)	P-value	Significant
Urban %	0.719	<0.0001	Yes
College %	0.620	<0.0001	Yes
Median Income	0.621	<0.0001	Yes
Population	0.518	0.0001	Yes
Median Age	0.214	0.135	No

Multiple Regression Model

• R² = 0.743 (demographics explain 74% of interest variance)
• Urban percentage is the strongest predictor

Project 05: Mercury Retrograde — Real Effect or Perception Bias?

Source: bigastrologybook.com/2/research/19/project-5 Archive Date: 2026-03-21 Book: The Big Astrology Book of Research by Renay Oshop Scope: 24 years of daily travel/incident data (2001–2024); Bayesian NLP framework; ~72 Mercury retrograde periods

---

Research Question

Does Mercury retrograde actually correlate with increased technology failures, travel disruptions, and communication breakdowns — or is the widespread experience of retrograde chaos a product of perception bias?

Hypothesis

The Mercury retrograde effect is primarily a psychological phenomenon: confirmation bias and calendar confounds (holiday seasons, weekly patterns, annual travel volume) account for the perceived correlation between Mercury's apparent backward motion and terrestrial disruption.

---

A Critical Upfront Disclosure

**The travel and incident data

Open Results of project 5

Results: Mercury Retrograde Perception Bias

Executive Summary

After applying rigorous time-series detrending (accounting for Holidays, Day-of-Week, and Seasonality) and Bayesian Inference but on simulated data, we found no statistical evidence that Mercury Retrograde periods correlate with increased travel delays or technology incidents.

The Anomaly Ratio for Retrograde periods was 1.002 (0.2% deviation), which is statistically indistinguishable from the baseline (1.000). The Bayesian posterior probability of the "Retrograde Hypothesis" decreased from 50% to 45% after observing the data, suggesting the hypothesis provides no predictive power over random noise.

---

1. Rigorous Detrending Analysis (Travel Incidents)

We decomposed 24 years of daily travel data (2001-2024, N=8,766 days) to remove known confounding variables (Holiday Spikes, Weekend Peaks, Seasonal Weather).

The Metric of Interest is the "Anomaly Ratio" (Actual / Expected).

Project 06: Harmonic Analysis of Planetary Aspects in High Achievers

Source: bigastrologybook.com/2/research/19/project-6 Archive Date: 2026-03-21 Book: The Big Astrology Book of Research by Renay Oshop Dataset: 86 verified historical figures (Rodden Rating AA/A) across 6 professional categories; 5,000-chart random baseline

---

Research Question

Do the birth charts of highly successful people — scientists, artists, athletes, politicians — show measurably different harmonic patterns from the general population? And if so, do different professions show different harmonic signatures?

Hypothesis

If planetary aspects encode something real about psychological disposition and drive, distinct professional cohorts should exhibit distinct harmonic profiles — and those profiles should deviate measurably from a random baseline.

Results: Harmonic Analysis of Planetary Aspects

Executive Summary

We analyzed the planetary harmonic signatures (H1-H12) of 86 successful historical figures across Science, Arts, Politics, and Sports, comparing them against a control baseline of 5,000 random charts.

Key Finding: Successful individuals generally display higher "Tension" (H4) and higher "Inspiration" (H7) harmonics than the random population, but lower "Ease" (H3 Trine) harmonics.

1. The "Success Signature" (Science vs Arts)

Scientists (N=15)

• H4 (Squares, 90°): 1.43x Baseline.
  • Interpretation: Scientists appear driven by internal tension, conflict, and the need to solve problems (the nature of the Square).
• H5 (Quintiles, 72°): 1.36x Baseline.
  • Interpretation: Strong signal for "Creative Style" and structural intellect.
• H7 (Septiles, 51.4°): 1.24x Baseline.

Research Questions

Two distinct questions are tested here under the shared umbrella of "machine learning and astrology":

1. Cyclic Age Hypothesis: Do planetary return cycles (Saturn at 29.5 years, Jupiter at 11.9 years, Lunar Nodes at 18.6 years) predict Big Five personality traits better than simple linear aging?
2. Profession Classification: Can a birth chart predict professional category (Science, Arts, Politics, Sports) better than chance?

Hypothesis

If Saturn Returns and other cyclic life events shape personality meaningfully, then a model using cyclical phase position should outperform one using line

Open Results of project 7

Results: Machine Learning and Planetary Cycles

Executive Summary

We performed two distinct machine learning experiments:

1. Personality vs Cycles: Do we have "Saturn Return" crises? (Using N=19,632 Big Five records).
2. Profession vs Chart: Can we predict if you're a Scientist or Artist? (Using N=82 Verified Charts).

---

Experiment 1: The Cyclic Age Hypothesis

Does adding "Cyclic Age" (where in the Saturn/Jupiter cycle you are) improve personality prediction over "Linear Age"?

Answer: No.

Trait	Linear Age R^2	Cyclic Age R^2	Delta
Conscientiousness	0.0514	0.0507	-0.0007
Neuroticism	0.0234	0.0235	+0.0001

• Interpretation: While personality does change with age, it appears to be a linear/biological maturation process, not one driven by planetary returns. The "Saturn Return" (age 29) shows no statistical spike in Neuroticism or Conscientiousness compared to age 28 or 30.

DATA SOURCES (REAL):
- Open-Source Psychometrics Project (OSPP) Big Five data

- Birth year allows calculation of outer planet positions
- Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto signs from birth year

WHY OUTER PLANETS:
- These planets move slowly (1-30 years per sign)
- Birth YEAR is sufficient to determine their approximate positions
- OSPP provides birth year but not full date (privacy)

METHODOLOGY:
1. Download real OSPP Big Five test data with birth years
2. Calculate outer planet positions for each birth year

Project 08: Tropical vs. Sidereal Zodiac

Source: bigastrologybook.com/2/research/19/project-8 Archive Date: 2026-03-21 Book: The Big Astrology Book of Research by Renay Oshop Dataset: 86 verified celebrity birth charts (from Project 06); 8,500+ trading days for GARCH extension

---

Research Question

Which zodiac system is empirically superior: Tropical (seasonal, Western astrology, 0° Aries = Spring Equinox) or Sidereal (constellation-based, Vedic astrology, 0° Aries = first star of Ashwini)?

Due to axial precession, the two systems have drifted apart by approximately 24° — nearly one full sign. In 2025, the Lahiri ayanamsa (the standard Indian offset) is 24.21°, meaning roughly 80.7% of people have a different Sun sign in the Sidereal system than in the Tropical. This is astrology's central unresolved schism.

Hypothesis

If one zodiac system reflects real physical or biological infl

Results: Tropical vs Sidereal Zodiac

Executive Summary

We performed a Machine Learning comparison between the three major zodiac systems to see which Sun Sign definition could best predict the profession of 86 verified celebrities.

The Winner: None. All systems performed worse than random guessing.

---

1. Accuracy Scores

The baseline strategy (guessing "Arts" for everyone, as it's the largest group) yields 24.4% Accuracy. A useful zodiac system should exceed this.

System	Accuracy	Performance vs Random
Tropical (Western)	17.1%	-7.3% (Worse than chance)
Sidereal (Lahiri)	17.1%	-7.3% (Worse than chance)
Sidereal (Fagan)	15.9%	-8.5% (Worse than chance)

2. Interpretation

This is a profound null result.

1. Indistinguishable Performance: Tropical and Lahiri Sidereal attained the exact same (low) score. This often happens because they are simply shifting the error - e.g.,

What This Chapter Is

This project documents a research design that was fully specified but not executed. The analysis scripts were written; the solar data collection methodology was established; but the critical missing component — a viable crowd-sourced mood dataset — was never obtained at scale. Rather than present fabricated results, this chapter stands as a methodology paper: what would an honest scientific test of the "solar activity ↔ human experience" hypothesis look like?

The question itself is worth preserving, because it is genuinely distinct from the rest of this book's research and more physically plausible than most astrological claims.

---

Research Question

Does astrological synastry — the comparison of two birth charts to assess compatibility — predict whether a romantic relationship will endure? Specifically: do particular inter-chart planetary alignments distinguish long-lasting marriages from short ones?

Hypothesis

If synastry carries real information about compatibility, couples with "favorable" inter-chart aspects should show longer relationship duration on average than couples with "unfavorable" aspects, after controlling for demographic confounders.

Results: Synastry and Relationship Longevity

Dataset Overview

• Total Valid Couples: 2,722 (from Wikidata)
• Completed Relationships (Divorce/Death): 1,697 pairings used for core correlation analysis.
• Duration Definitions:
  • Long Term: Top 25% (> 54.4 years duration).
  • Short Term: Bottom 25% (< 8.1 years duration).

Part 1: The Artifacts (Demographic Bias)

The strongest statistical signals in the dataset are driven by Age Matching. To have a relationship last 50+ years, both partners must be alive for that duration. This creates a survival bias favoring couples of similar ages.

Synastry Pair	Correlation (r)	Interpretation
Pluto-Pluto	+0.15 (p<0.001)	Conjunction (Similar Age) strongly favors longevity.
Uranus-Uranus	+0.14 (p<0.001)	Conjunction (Similar Age) strongly favors longevity.

Longitudinal Health & Longevity Modeling

Research Question

Can astrological factors in a birth chart predict health outcomes or longevity when analyzed using survival analysis methods on large-scale biobank data?

Hypothesis

Specific planetary configurations (particularly Saturn and outer planet placements) may show statistically significant, though likely small, associations with health outcomes when analyzed using Cox proportional hazards models.

Background

Moving beyond traditional "medical astrology" tropes, this research applies rigorous survival analysis to test whether any natal chart factors correlate with time-to-onset of health conditions or overall longevity. The goal is objective measurement, not validation of traditional claims.

Data Sources

• UK Biobank: Large-scale biobank with birth dates and health outcomes
• Astro-Databank: "AA" rated birth times with confirmed medical diagnoses
• National health databases: Medicare/Medicaid data (aggregated)
• **S

Results: Longitudinal Health & Longevity Analysis

Overview

This study analyzed 936 verified celebrity deaths to test direct astrological correlations with longevity and the timing of death. We employed a "Transit vs. Natal" approach, calculating the angular distance between planetary positions at death and at birth.

Data Source

• 936 Celebrities with verified birth times/dates (AstroDatabank/Wikipedia).
• Date Range: Deaths spanning 1929-2024.
• Method: Calculated cosine similarity of planetary angles at death vs. birth.
  • +1.0: Death at Planetary Return (Conjunction)
  • -1.0: Death at Planetary Opposition
  • 0.0: Death at Square (or random)

Key Findings

1. The "Planetary Return" Effect (Timing of Death)

We tested whether death dates cluster around specific phases of planetary cycles relative to the birth chart.

Market Volatility and Planetary Harmonics

Research Question

Can planetary harmonics (aspects) be used as exogenous variables in GARCH models to improve prediction of market volatility?

Hypothesis

Planetary harmonics, when included as exogenous variables in GARCH models, will not significantly improve out-of-sample volatility forecasting compared to standard GARCH models.

Background

Financial astrologers claim that planetary aspects correlate with market volatility. This research rigorously tests this claim using GARCH models—the gold standard for volatility modeling—by including planetary aspects as exogenous variables.

Data Sources

• Tick/Daily OHLC data: S&P 500, Bitcoin from Yahoo Finance or professional data feeds
• Swiss Ephemeris: For precise planetary positions and aspect calculations
• VIX data: For comparison volatility measures

Circular Statistics for Personality by Birth Angle

Research Question

Using proper circular statistics, do zodiac signs show non-uniform distributions for individuals with specific personality traits or professions?

Hypothesis

If astrological claims are valid, individuals in professions associated with specific traits (e.g., performers = extraverts) should cluster at zodiacal positions traditionally linked to those traits (e.g., fire signs).

Background

The Gauquelin studies claimed to find planetary "peaks" in certain chart sectors for professionals. This research applies modern circular statistics to test whether such patterns exist using real celebrity data with profession as a personality proxy.

Data Sources

• Celebrity Data: 211 verified birth dates from Wikipedia/public records
  • 100 Performers (actors, musicians, comedians) — extraversion proxy
  • 50 Scientists (physicists, mathematicians, inventors) — introversion proxy

Celestial Mechanics and Ancient Techniques

Overview

This project investigates the application of Ancient Astrological Techniques—specifically Essential Dignities (Domicile, Exaltation, Detriment, Fall)—to a modern dataset of celebrities.

We explicitly compare the two major zodiacal systems:

1. Tropical Zodiac: Based on the seasons (Vernal Equinox). Used in Western Astrology.
2. Sidereal Zodiac (Lahiri): Based on the fixed stars. Used in Vedic (Jyotish) Astrology.

Hypothesis

Does "Planetary Strength" (Dignity) correlate with professional success? And does one coordinate system (Tropical vs. Sidereal) align better with observed "eminence" or specific career paths?

Methodology

• Dataset: 52 Celebrities (31 Performers, 21 Scientists). Note: Subset of Project 13 dataset.
• Calculation:
  • Positions calculated for Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn.

Birth Order and Astrological Factors

Introduction

This project investigates the potential astrological correlates of Birth Order (e.g., First Born, Middle, Youngest, Only Child). Unlike previous theoretical attempts, this study utilizes real-world empirical data from two distinct sources to test whether specific planetary configurations or generational markers appear more frequently in specific birth order categories.

Alternative to crude "Sun Sign" pop-psychology, we employ rigorous astronomical calculations (Julian Day, Sidereal/Lahiri Ayanamsa) to analyze both Secular Trends (generational outer planet shifts) and Personal Aspects (Sun-Saturn, Sun-Jupiter).

This analysis investigates the relationship between Birth Order and planetary placements using real-world data from the Wisconsin Longitudinal Study (WLS). The dataset contains 10,317 graduates (Class of 1957) and their siblings, totaling 34,762 individuals.

Data Source

• Source: Wisconsin Longitudinal Study (WLS) Public Data (Release 15.2).
• Features:
  • Birth Year: Available for all subjects (Graduates + Siblings).
  • Birth Order: Explicitly recorded.
  • Limitations: "Day of Birth" and "Century Month of Birth" were redacted/unavailable in the public files.
  • Approximation: Planetary positions are calculated for July 2nd (Mid-year) of the given birth year. This limits usage to outer planets and nodes.

Methodology

• Coordinate System: Sidereal (Lahiri Ayanamsa).
• Planets Analyzed: Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Rahu (North Node), Ketu (South Node).

Famous People by Birth Order

Here is a list of famous individuals categorized by their birth order. This data can be used to cross-reference with birth charts for analysis.

1. First Borns

First borns are often described as reliable, conscientious, and structured. They frequently appear in leadership roles.

• Winston Churchill (UK Prime Minister) - First born.
• Bill Clinton (US President) - First born (technically only child of his father, but raised with half-brother Roger later).
• J.K. Rowling (Author) - First born (sister Dianne is younger).
• Beyoncé (Singer) - First born (sister Solange is younger).
• Richard Branson (Entrepreneur) - First born.
• George W. Bush (US President) - First born.
• Oprah Winfrey (Media Executive) - First born.
• Sylvester Stallone (Actor) - First born.
• Jeff Bezos (Amazon Founder) - First born.

Astrological Indicators of Creativity and Genius

Overview

Tests astrological claims that creative geniuses share specific birth chart indicators, including Neptune aspects and placements in "creative" signs.

Dataset

758 verified creative individuals across seven fields:

• Scientists: 169 (Nobel laureates, major physicists, chemists, inventors)
• Artists: 158 (painters, sculptors, photographers, architects)
• Musicians: 162 (classical composers, jazz legends, rock/pop icons)
• Writers: 139 (Nobel laureates, novelists, poets, playwrights)
• Filmmakers: 53 (directors from Kurosawa to Nolan)
• Actors: 47 (Oscar winners, method actors)
• Inventors: 30 (Edison, Tesla, tech founders)

Birth data sources: AstroDatabank (Rodden Rating AA/A), Wikipedia, verified historical records

Astrological Claims Tested

Results: Astrological Indicators of Creativity and Genius

Overview

This study analyzed birth charts of ~750 verified geniuses and creative individuals (Nobel laureates, artists, musicians, filmmakers) to test whether specific astrological configurations appear more frequently than expected.

Data Sources

• Genius Sample: N=758 Verified birth dates from biographical sources (AstroDatabank, etc.).
• Control Group: 500 random charts generated uniformly from 1800-2000.
• Metrics:
  • Creativity Score (Systematic sum of Neptune/Uranus aspects + Creative Signs).
  • Harmonic Profile (Cosine of angular separation between all 10 celestial bodies).

Key Findings

1. Creativity Score (The "Astrological Formula")

We tested a composite "Creativity Score" based on traditional claims (Neptune aspects, Sun/Venus in Leo/Pisces/Libra/Aquarius).

Event Prediction and Planetary Transits

Objective

To test the "Mundane Astrology" hypothesis that major historical events (wars, political upheavals, disasters, economic crises) cluster around periods of high tension between the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto).

Methodology

1. Event Data: A curated dataset of 498 historical events, filtered to exclude "positive" or "cultural" events (like art releases or scientific discoveries) to focus on "hard" geopolitical and physical reality events.
   • Categories: Political (Coups/Revolutions), Military (Wars), Disasters (Natural/Terrorist), Economic (Crashes).
   • Timeframe: 1666 - 2023.
2. Planetary Calculation:
   • Positions calculated using the Swiss Ephemeris (swisseph).
   • Focus Planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto.
   • Aspects Tracked: Conjunction (0°), Square (90°), Opposition (180°).
   • Orbs: 8° for Conjunction/Opposition, 6° for Square.
3. **St

Results: Event Prediction and Planetary Transits

1. Hypothesis

Standard "Mundane Astrology" relies on "Hard Aspects" (0°, 90°, 180°). However, this discrete approach may miss subtler aggregate alignments. Revised Hypothesis: Large-scale historical events occur when the planetary system as a whole is more "aligned" or "bunched" than usual. We measure this using the Sum of Cosines of Angular Differences between all tracked planets (Sun through Pluto).

• Metric: $\sum \cos(\theta_i - \theta_j)$ for all pairs $(i, j)$
• Interpretation:
  • High Positive Score: Planets are clustered together (Conjunctions/Alignments).
  • High Negative Score: Planets are opposite each other (Oppositions).
  • Near Zero: Planets are spread out or in squares ($cos(90°) = 0$).

2. Methodology

• Sample: 498 Historical Events (1666-2023).
  • Filtered to exclude "positive" culture/achievement events.

Solar House System Analysis (Surya Lagna)

Objective

To evaluate the efficacy of Solar House Systems (where the Sun defines the 1st House) as a predictive tool when birth times are unknown or unreliable. This project tests whether "Archetypal Planets" (e.g., Mars for Athletes) appear in "Archetypal Houses" (e.g., 10th House of Career) more often than random chance when using the Sun as the chart anchor.

Methodology

• Sample: 86 Celebrities from Project 6 (Science, Arts, Politics, Sports, Literature, Philosophy).
• Systems Compared:
  1. Solar Whole Sign: The Sign containing the Sun is the 1st House (0° to 30° of that sign).
  2. Solar Equal House: The Degree of the Sun defines the 1st House Cusp (e.g., Sun at 15° Leo -> 1st House is 15° Leo to 15° Virgo).
• Statistical Approach:
  • Archetype Mapping: Defining target houses/planets for each category (e.g., Politics -> Sun/Jupiter in 10th/11th).
  • Bayesian Inference: Calculating the

Results: Solar House System Analysis

1. Overview

Goal: Evaluate the efficacy of "Solar House" systems (Surya Lagna) where the Sun is used as the primary anchor instead of the Ascendant. This accounts for the lack of accurate birth times in historical/public datasets.

Methodology:

• Dataset: 86 Celebrities (Science, Arts, Politics, Sports, etc.) from Project 6. The data is more sparse than desired.
• Systems Compared:
  1. Solar Whole Sign: 1st House is the entire sign containing the Sun.
  2. Solar Equal House: 1st House starts at the exact longitude of the Sun.
• Hypothesis: Successful individuals (Archetypes) should have "Archetypically Relevant Planets" in "Archetypically Relevant Solar Houses" (e.g., Mars in 10th for Athletes) significantly more often than random chance.
• Baseline Chance: ~25.0% (3 target houses out of 12).

Mundane Astrology and World Events

Research Question

Do planetary cycles (particularly outer planet aspects) correlate with major world events as claimed by mundane astrology?

Background

Mundane astrology is the branch of astrology dealing with world events, nations, and collective experiences rather than individuals. Practitioners claim that:

• Saturn-Pluto aspects correlate with wars, destruction, power struggles
• Uranus-Pluto aspects correlate with revolutions and social upheaval
• Saturn-Neptune aspects correlate with epidemics, collective delusions
• Jupiter-Uranus aspects correlate with scientific breakthroughs
• Saturn-Uranus aspects correlate with tension between old and new orders

These claims have been promoted by astrologers for decades, with famous "hits" like:

• WWI (1914): Saturn opposite Pluto
• WWII (1939): Saturn conjunct Pluto
• COVID-19 (2020): Saturn conjunct Pluto

Hypothesis

Null hypothesis: Major world events occur rand

Open Results of project 19

Results: Mundane Astrology and World Events (Cyclic Index Analysis)

1. Methodology: The Planetary Cyclic Index

Instead of relying on discrete "aspect" definitions (e.g., Square vs. Trine), this study utilized the Planetary Cyclic Index developed by Gouchon and Barbault. This metric treats planetary relationships as a continuous wave function.

1189677 Index = \sum_{i<j} \cos(\theta_{ij}) 1189677

Where $\theta_{ij}$ is the angular separation between outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto).

• Index $\rightarrow$ Max (Positive): Planets are clustered together (Conjunctions).
• Index $\rightarrow$ Min (Negative): Planets are dispersed or opposing (Oppositions).

Hypothesis: If planetary cycles correlate with mundane events, we should see significant deviations in the Cyclic Index during major Event types (War, Revolution, Political Shifts) compared to the random time background.

2. Statistical Findings

We analyzed 512 verified historical events

Project 20: Genetic Algorithms for Astrological Rule Discovery

Research Question

Can evolutionary algorithms (Genetic Algorithms) discover astrological signatures that predict high achievement better than random chance?

Hypothesis

Evolutionary search techniques will identify "clusters" or recurring signatures in the charts of exceptional individuals that traditional astrological rules (e.g., "Good Dignity = Success") might miss.

Methodology

This study utilized a curated dataset of 86 High-Profile Celebrities across diverse fields (Science, Arts, Politics, Sports, Philosophy).

• Algorithm: Exhaustive Search (acting as a feature selection mechanism for a GA).
• Search Space: All Planets (Sun-Pluto) + Nodes (Rahu/Ketu) in all 12 Signs (Tropical & Vedic).
• Objective: Maximize "Fitness" (Frequency of occurrence within the group).

Key Findings (Project 20b)

The algorithm successfully identified non-random clusters, specifically challenging the "Essential Digni

Project 21: Eclipse Cycles and Collective Mood

Objective

To investigate if Solar and Lunar eclipses correlate with measurable increases in collective distress or "chaos" in Seattle, WA.

Hypothesis

Physical Chaos: Seattle 911 call volumes (Fire/EMS) increase on the days of eclipses compared to normal days.

• Refinement: We analyze Solar and Lunar eclipses separately to see if they produce different effects.

Data Sources

• Seattle Real-Time Fire 911 Calls: Public dataset covering 2013-2026 (~1.6 million records).
• Swiss Ephemeris: High-precision astronomical calculation for eclipse dates.

Methodology

911 Call Analysis (Detrending)

We employ a Multi-Factor Linear Regression model to strictly isolate "abnormal" volume from known temporal drivers.

1. Feature Engineering: The following features are extracted for every day in the dataset:
   • Day of Week (Mon-Sun seasonality)
   • Month of Year (Annual seasonality)

Project 21: Eclipse Cycles and Collective Mood

Seattle 911 Call Volume Analysis (Daily)

• Hypothesis: "Real-time Chaos" (911 calls) increases on days of Solar/Lunar eclipses.
• Data: ~1.4M Seattle Fire 911 Calls.
• Method: Multi-factor Linear Regression Detrending (No Log Transform).
• Metric: Z-Score of Residuals (Deviations from expected daily volume).

Aggregate Results (Solar vs. Lunar)

Note: Positive Z-Score indicated higher than expected call volume. Negative indicates lower.

Astro-Weather Forecasting vs Meteorological Forecasts

Research Question

Is there any correlation between planetary configurations (Planets, Nodes, Zodiac Signs, Elements) and terrestrial weather patterns (Precipitation and Temperature)? Specifically, does the "Water Sign" hypothesis hold?

Hypothesis

Planetary positions have no statistically significant impact on daily weather patterns when analyzed over large datasets. However, we test if Tropical Water signs correlate with increased precipitation.

Background

Astrological traditions often link Moon phases and signs to weather (e.g., "Water signs bring rain"). This project specifically analyzes the "Tithi" (Lunar Day), Moon Sign, and Full Planetary Positions (Sun through Pluto + Nodes) in both Tropical and Vedic Zodiacs.

Data Sources

• NOAA GHCN-Daily: Daily summaries of precipitation and temperature from global weather stations.
• Swiss Ephemeris: High-precision planetary position calculations (Tropical & Vedic/Lahir

Results: Astro-Weather Forecasting vs Meteorological Forecasts

Analysis Overview

We analyzed daily weather summaries from 129,562 stations (Global Dataset) covering the period 1900-2024. This full-scale analysis correlates precipitation (PRCP) against ALL planetary bodies in both Tropical and Vedic (Sidereal/Lahiri) zodiacs.

Key Findings (Hemisphere Split)

We performed a metadata-driven split of the global dataset into Northern (104,205 stations) and Southern (25,357 stations) hemispheres to test for seasonal inversion.

1. Northern Hemisphere (The "Flat" Signal)

In the Northern Hemisphere, precipitation is surprisingly evenly distributed across the Zodiacal elements for the Sun.

• Sun (Trop) Avg Precip:
  • Water: 23.56
  • Earth: 23.56
  • Air: 23.47
  • Fire: 23.30
• Conclusion: There is no astrological benefit to the "Water Sign" rule in the aggregate Northern data. The seasonal rainfall peaks of vario

Birth Chart Similarity and Career Outcomes

Research Question

Do individuals with similar birth charts tend to have similar career trajectories? Can chart similarity predict career path better than demographic factors alone?

Hypothesis

Birth chart similarity will not predict career similarity beyond demographic factors, but cluster analysis may reveal interesting patterns in the data.

Background

This research approaches the astrology-career question from a similarity perspective: rather than testing specific rules, we ask whether overall chart similarity correlates with career similarity.

Data Sources

• LinkedIn/Kaggle: Employment history datasets
• Census data: Occupation information with birth dates
• Astro-Databank: Charts with profession tags
• Public records: Professional registries

Mathematical Methods

1. Cluster analysis: Group similar charts together
2. Logistic regression: Predict career categories
3. Survival analysis: Career longe

Electional Astrology and Decision Making

Objective

To rigorously test the core tenets of Electional Astrology (the art of choosing the "perfect time" to start a venture) against real-world financial outcomes.

Does the moment a company is born (IPO Date) determine its destiny?

Research Question

Can we predict the long-term success or failure of a public company based solely on the astrological quality of its incorporation or IPO date?

Specifically, we test three ancient rules:

1. The Lunar Cycle: Do businesses started during a Waxing Moon grow faster than those started during a Waning Moon?
2. Retrogrades: Does listing during Mercury Retrograde correlate with failure, delisting, or poor returns?
3. Benefic Aspects: Do positive angles (Trines/Conjunctions) between the Sun and Jupiter and other combinations correlate with market outperformance?

Methodology

Instead of analyzing a few cherry-picked examples, this project employs a *Big Data Approach

Results: Electional Astrology and Decision Making (IPO Analysis)

Overview

This study moved beyond small manual datasets to analyze market performance of publicly traded companies (N=10,000+) based on their IPO dates. We tested whether traditional "Electional Astrology" rules (start during Waxing Moon, avoid Retrogrades) correlate with financial survival and success.

Data Sources

• Population: ~10,000 Listings (NASDAQ/NYSE/AMEX) via Yahoo Finance API.
• Metric: 1-Year Post-IPO Return on Investment (ROI) & Market Cap.
• Astrological Features:
  • Full Ephemeris (12 Bodies + Chiron/Nodes).
  • Tithis: The 30 lunar days of Vedic astrology.
  • Cosine Aspect Matrix: Continuous variable measurement of planetary harmonics.

Key Findings

1. The Moon Phase Hypothesis

Traditional Rule: Businesses started during a Waxing Moon (growing light) should grow faster.

Fixed Stars Natal Interpretation

Overview

This project investigates the influence of major fixed stars in natal astrology using a continuous intensity weighting system rather than binary "orb" cutoffs. By using trigonometric similarity, we can quantify the exact "strength" of a planetary contact to a fixed star.

Methodology: Cosine Intensity

Traditional astrological analysis often uses a hard binary cutoff (e.g., "Is the planet within 2 degrees? Yes/No"). This project replaces that approach with a Cosine Similarity metric, which provides a continuous measure of alignment precision.

The Algorithm

For every planet in a birth chart and every fixed star:

1. Calculate the angular difference: $ \delta = |\theta_{planet} - \theta_{star}| $
2. Calculate Intensity: $ \text{Intensity} = \cos(\delta) $

This yields a value where:

• 1.0: Perfect exact conjunction (0° difference).
• ~0.999: Conjunction within ~2.5°.
• < 0.9: Wide or irrelevant aspects.

We apply a h

Open Results of project 25

Results: Fixed Stars Natal Interpretation

Overview

This 2026 analysis applies a continuous weighting system to the study of Fixed Stars. Instead of asking "Is Star X conjunct Planet Y?" (a binary yes/no), we calculate the Cosine Intensity of the alignment.

The formula $ \sum \cos(\theta_{diff}) $ allows us to quantify the total strength of a star's influence across a population, rewarding tighter orbs exponentially more than wide ones.

Data Source

• Sample: ~936 Public Figures (Celebrities, Politicians, Scientists, etc.).
• Source: Migrated from Project 11 (celebrity_data.csv).
• Categories: Individuals are grouped by their "Cause" of fame/category (e.g., Cardiac-related, Accident, etc - Note: mapped from available metadata).

Key Findings (Visualized)

1. Star-Planet Relationships (heatmap_star_planet.png)

This heatmap reveals the aggregate intensity of specific Planet-Star pairs.

• X-Axis: Planets (Sun, Moon... Pluto, Nodes).
• *

Open Statistical Thinking

To scientifically assess significance with this new Cosine Intensity model, you cannot rely on standard Chi-Square tests (which require discrete "counts"). Instead, the most robust metric would be a Z-Score derived from Permutation Testing (Resampling).

Here is the proposed statistical framework for this intensity (continuous) validation:

1. The Metric: Empirical Z-Score (vs. Randomized Baseline)

Because planetary positions are not random, we cannot compare against a uniform distribution. We must compare against shuffled versions of the dataset itself.

• The Process:
  1. Calculate determining the Observed Total Intensity for a specific pair (e.g., "Politicians + Regulus").
  2. Shuffle the "Category" labels of the 936 people randomly (keeping their birth charts intact) 10,000 times.
  3. Recalculate the Total Intensity for "Politicians + Regulus" in each of these 10,000 random universes.
  4. Compare:
