Astrology should be recognized as a science.

If I flip a coin, we know that the odds are that 50/50 for heads. However, if I flip a coin 100 times, there is a 37% chance that I will get heads (or tails) at least 55 times (10% above the average). The equation for this is combin(n,w) ï¿½ p^w ï¿½ (1-p)^(n-w). Simply showing a difference in statistics from predicted odds does not mean that it is not chance. 1) Association I'm also trying to find what "Moon in sector 10" even means. Even googling "moon in sector 10 astrology" isn't finding me anything other than the study that you showed. But one of the big errors this makes, is assuming that everything else is completely random (that if there are 12 phases, each phase should get 8.25% of the people). We know that babies are most often born on Wednesday (it was tuesday up until a few years ago), being 15.4% above average. And the least common day being Sunday, it is 35.1% below average [1]. Such wide swings are attributed to scheduled deliveries, since weekdays are better for having more staff at the hospital and getting your doctor, rather than someone on call. These massive variations (swinging by as much as 50% between different days) are not taken into account when applying a straight average as is done in the graphs that you provided. A more accurate comparison would be to compare the odds of astrologers being in the 10th sector of the moon with the general population. 2) Prediction This also suffers from the same flaw. It is assuming that everything else is completely random. However, we know this is not true. More babies are born in late summer (August) [1]. We also find that August is the most dangerous month for driving [2]. The "predictions" made by the chart would suggest that (related to birth) months 0, 3, 6, and 9 to be the most dangerous. For August kids, those would be August, November, February, and May. If we look at those, we see tht August is already the most dangerous for cars, November has Thanksgiving, and highly traveled week with a lot of injuries from that, May has memorial day, another major traveling day, and February is the coldest (and often wettest) month, putting other known risk factors in. Tying back into the "you can't just take the average and apply it" we can see that death's per month are not completely average [3]. With the variance between months ranging over 20%. Most of this is ditacted by weather as a contributing factor. 3) Excluding alternative hypothesis "What could cause celestial bodies' movements to relate to objective events that happen in numerous persons life?" This is making the assumption that the celestial bodies' movements actually do relate. Most alternative hypothesis will not relate to their movements as anything more than coincedence. As mentioned with the births related to the day of the week, or the month of the year. Those are all tied to our social and earthly environments. As well as the when people are more likely to be injured and more likely to die. 4) Dose dependence Dosage isn't really related for this, and is more for medical studies (namely 10 mg of Vicodin should do something different than 100 mg of Vicodin).
