Astrology
By Lennart Pearson
Head Librarian, Presbyterian College
THE SCIENTIFIC BASIS OF ASTROLOGY;
MYTH OR REALITY?
Does the secret of our fate really reside in the
movement of the stars? If the sales-curve for
books on this subject is any indication it looks as
if astrology may be staging a comeback. It used
to be that reliable horoscopes could be gotten only
from professional (and expensive) astrologers. Now
manuals and handbooks abound, and even the
rankest amateur can chart what the heavens have
to say about his personality, love life, inner
strength, business prospects, etc.
Michel Gauquelin’s contribution to the litera
ture of astrology is interesting for several reasons.
First, his explanation of what astorogy is all about
is reasonably clear. With the help of a few dia
grams and a minimum of technical terminology,
the uninitiated can learn about astrology to un
derstand why Auntie is distressed over her Moon
being in Capricorn. Secondlv, his review of the
long history of astrology—its practice among the
Babylonians, Egyptians, Incas, and Greeks, and its
relation to primitive religion and science—helps to
explain its tenacious grip upon the imagination of
the race. Even today, it slips by unnoticed that
our calendar with its months and weeks, our clock
with its twelve-hour dial, and some of the words
we use to describe qualities of character (“jo
vial”, “martial”), reflect the astrological elements
in our past. Thirdly, the author, whose creden
tials include work in psychology and statistics, has
examined the claims of modern astrologers from a
scientific ix>int of view, with results that will be
of interest to devotees of the daily horoscope.
The most significant ingredient in Gauquelin’s
book, however, has little to do with daily horo
scopes. In a way never dreamed of by astrologers
ancient or modern, the matter of astral and cosmic
influences on man and his world has caught the
attention of the scientist. Consider, for example,
the rhythms of the universe: atoms, cells, organ
isms, planets, indeed, entire galaxies—all are sub
ject to cycles r f occurrence and recurrence which
regulate all things, both living and inert. Man too
lives bv the rhythm of an internal biological clock
mysteriously powered by the day/night cylcle of
the earth’s rotation. If man’s internal clock is
freed from the 24-hour timekeeper, what happens
to the synchronization of his bodily functions—as
in t’.ie case of prolonged space tracer’ Or, since it
has 1 een established that the impulses which trav
el along our nervous system are electrical in na
ture, is it not possible that the eleven-year cycle
of solar disturbances which affect radio transmis
sions could also create disturbances in our own
electromagnetic field? And if the radioactive ele
ments in X-rays or nuclear fallout can proluce ge
netic mutations, how much is really known about
the part played by cosmic radiation in the evolu
tion and destiny of living creatures?
To illustj^ate the points he is trying to make,
Gauquelin clescnBes a number of experiments in
volving luna^RfiUPsolar influences on things like
steam boilers, fiddler crabs, and pregnant women.
The book concludes with a brief “who’s who”
among the experimenters.
Here, then, is a work in which an ancient and
occult art and the frontiers of modem science are
juxtaposed in a way that leaves the reader with
thoughts that are new and strange, and in some
ways bewildering. Perhaps more than we realize,
the secret of our fate IS tied up with the move
ment of the stars.
