Feedback for "Astrologically Predictable Patterns in Work Related Injuries"

This feedback was received from readers of Astrologically Predictable Patterns in Work Related Injuries, by Sara Klein Ridgley.


i don't think sun aspects have anything to do with the accidents. cause sun accounts only for the large illnesses and fevers. although it is true that sun in the 8th or 6th or 1st house from natal sun proves to be harmful for the subject's health. these health problems however do not mean accidents. According to vedic astrology accidents are the area of authority of mars.

i read among the other comments that someone from sweden has found the relation of accidents with aspects of mars and saturn. this is very correct, since most accidents involve bone fractures and the fractures occur particularly at mars-saturn aspects.

[Since writing my thesis in 1992,] we have acquired a set of data from the Swedish Government and did a replication and did not find anything like the results of my original study. Zip Dobyns, Mark Pottenger and I have been working on the data and found very little significance at all to the solar transits. The results have not been written up in an article yet, but Mark Pottenger gave two lectures on this effort at the International Astrology Conference in Plymouth, UK in August 1999.

We obtained a large database of injured workers from the Swedish Government's equivalent to our Workers' Compensation Board. We had close to 3000 individuals, of which over 2400 were TIMED accidents (i.e., we had the exact time of accident). We used this subsample in order to be able to use the Moon. As all of these people were Swedish, they all lived in the same time zone, so we could do that.

What was found was a SMALL significant effect to hard aspects between Mars and Saturn (P>.03)

Mars Saturn aspects were found also on the original study (the California Sample) when we re-analyzed it.

The Swedish sample showed no effects from the transiting Sun to the natal Sun either at the opposition or the square. However, a reversed effect was significant statistically on the conjunction: i.e., the LEAST amount of accidents occurred around the birthdate!. We found out that in Sweden, people get their birthdays off!! So they actually were not at work on their dates of birth.

Generally we feel that the difference in results stems from very different cultural values and psychological attitudes toward work, people in places of authority and the individual's self worth.

Obviously, more replications are needed, and we are constantly looking for additional samples that will fit our criteria to do such replications.

It may be true that 'every i is dotted and t crossed'' but the sub-title is weak and lame..."Avert the Danger That Has Not Yet Come"...catchy, of course but begs the question. The proof that the danger can be averted is...???

OK.... I'm skeptical, especially since this is, um, 2000, and your 'statistics' were from '92, and, hmmm, I don't seem to see any clarion call of support from an outside researcher, specifically one who is disinterested, as all good science is disinterested, and I haven't seen any further results from _you_, and I haven't seen a valid confirmation of this study from a real university- since, honestly, the University for Humanistic Studies, Del Mar, California, is, as you are fully aware, a junk institution of no proper credentials. You should be ashamed to offer it as your degree school in serious scientific realms, and you know it.

Run the _same_ data, and look for accidents _outside_ your projected expectations....

Then let us know what you get, if you dare to run this data without any preset bias that is.

Being an accident prone sag.rising conj. mars sq sun opp.jup my injuries often occur around birthday or opposition to asc. Probably not life threatening due conj Jup.I am presently home on sick leave with herniated disk which I'm sure has to do with Sat op natal Saturn in 6th. Interesting study hope this info can be of use.

Back to the study.
