Humans first began developing astrology over 5,000 years ago in Mesopotamia. Skeptics have dismissed astrology for the past 200 years, because it hasn’t been verifiable by the scientific method…until now!
Since the time of Issac Newton, astrology has declined from being a subject taught at universities to being abandoned by the scientific community and becoming pseudoscience because researchers have been unable to validate it through the scientific method. In contrast to previous studies which included subjective interpretations and predictions by astrologers, this research used an algorithm based on the process of astrological synastry and the position of the planets that was created to find correlations for astrologically similar or complementary people.
We have shown statistically significant correlations between astrology and human behavior by examining the aspects between the planets in the combined birth charts of two people, and by calculating a single number (termed the Star Score) which describes two people who are either astrologically similar (higher score) or complementary (lower score). When comparing the Star Scores of champion artistic swimming duets and doubles tennis champions to the distribution of one million random combinations, the average scores were found to be significantly higher than the random mean. A similar analysis showed pairs skating champions had significantly lower scores than the random population.
Our results reinforce the idea that Star Score should be viewed as a similar versus complementary duality rather than one of a good or bad score that is higher or lower than the random population’s average. Alas, there are no bad scores!
While not proof of causation, these correlations suggest that the location of the planets in our solar system may affect the development of human life. This hypothesis is supported by studies that have demonstrated the effect of solar emissions on human health and by astrophysics research on the effects of planetary orbits on solar activity and emissions toward Earth.
