Planetary Formations and Life Patterns
A Quantitative Analysis of Vocational Distributions in Three Astrological Groups
D. Kyle Pierce, MS, MSPH
Astrological theory suggests that specific planetary formations may correlate with distinct psychological orientations and life pathways. This study examines whether three theoretically distinct planetary patterns demonstrate measurable differences in vocational distributions.
Biographical data from 108 subjects (36 per group) with documented life histories were coded for vocation, family background, and education. These subjects were selected by the presence of specific planetary formations at birth. Vocational distributions were compared using Fisher’s exact tests.
The hypothesis that Group 1 (Sun-Saturn-Mars T-square) would show a significantly different vocational distribution from Groups 2-3 (Sun-Venus-Neptune formations) combined was supported (Fisher’s exact p = 0.013). Cramér’s V = 0.340 (medium effect).
These findings suggest that distinct planetary formations correlate with measurable vocational patterns and generate testable hypotheses for confirmatory research.
