My use of the 'Mars Effect' term was really just a rough way to the
message across quickly. The TV personalities have the increase only in
Sector 1, with Sector 4 having a normal looking distribution.
also has a high percentage of rounded birth times, but it wouldn't
affect the results much because of the automatic averaging of errors
and the width of sectors.
considerably better than sportsmen and many other categories for Mars
in Sector 1. Now that you ask, I can see that Jupiter is not doing
anything special, but some people might think Mercury is because of
the increase in Sectors 1 and 4.
observation. I'm more interested in using it as a starting point for
either showing Gauquelin was right or showing what I think has
actually been happening for SOME observations all these years - we
have been talking unknowingly about what have been *transitory* trends
for occupations or activities - and getting into endless arguments
with skeptics and colleagues about them instead of doing research to
see how long the various trends hold up.
in astrological research we have a history of not even looking for
them. We have been mostly looking at static graphs that sometimes
don't even have a trend in them. Often we are only looking at a short-
term spike that raised the overall score for a particular factor.
noticed that the Mars Effect for Sportsmen didn't even exist after the
first 73 years of the data. It came and it completely fizzled out by
16th Feb 1890.
fairly constant throughout that 128 year period - it was that men
*wouldn't* become famous sportsmen if they had Mars in the 5th or 6th
Sectors.
