Explore how rigorous statistical research supports the influence of planets on human personality and vocation in Cosmic Influences on Human Behavior — Michel Gauquelin’s landmark work combining astrology with empirical science.

This seminal book presents decades of Gauquelin’s studies of thousands of birth records and identifies a measurable correlation between planetary positions at birth and lifelong achievements:

✨ Reveals “planetary personality” tendencies — for example, Mars is more common in the charts of athletes, Saturn in scientists, and Jupiter in leaders.
✨ Uses rigorous statistical methods, drawing from a large sample (e.g., 25,000 European professionals).
✨ Presents a skeptical, scientific-minded take on astrology — not pop horoscopes, but a data-driven investigation into birth-time effects.

Gauquelin’s work has been internationally recognized as some of the strongest scientific support for astrological influence.
