Zodiac2000 - Astrology Statistics
Michel Gauquelin's statistical demonstrations :

Michel Gauquelin (psychologist) has published in his book "The Humans and the Stars" (ed. Denoël, Paris, 1960) very impressive results demonstrating statistically the reality of Astrology.
He has investigated a first series of 25 000 birth dates from which he made the inventory of well known people appearing in biographic dictionaries and regrouping them in their different domains of activity.
In that way, he had objective data in order to study the correlation between the professions of these groups of people and their birth astrological chart.
He observed correlations between the position of planets in their birth sky and their profession.
As an example, you can find a statistical graph here under showing the position of Mars in the birth sky of 1485 sport champions:

Instead to be randomly distributed, the sport champions were more frequently born just after that Mars raised or culminated.
For a group of 1485 people, the expected statistical gap between a perfect circle and the actual observation should be much lower than what appears in the graph at right.
The probability to get a so big gap is 1 chance over 5 millions!

Michel Gauquelin observed the same effect in other domains of activity as military officers, scientists, elected politicians and actors. A summary of his results are presented in the graph here under :
