The Mars effect hypothesis was first published by the French researcher Michel Gauquelin in 1955. It states that Mars occupies certain region of the sky more often at the time that sports champions are born than at the time that other people are born.
The Gauquelins analyzed some basic tenets of astrology and found a correlation amongst birth planetary positions of a person, his psychological character and the career or vocation or success in it
.
finding results: “It is now quite certain that the signs in the sky which presided over our births have no power whatever to decide our fates, to affect our hereditary characteristics, or to play any part, however humble, in the totality of effects, random or otherwise, which form the fabric of our lives and mould our impulses to action.”
Instead he found that planets and angles were more indicative. “Subsequent results only confirmed and amplified my initial discovery about the physicians. On the whole, it emerged that there was an increasingly solid statistical link between the time of birth of great men and their occupational success. … Having collected over 20,000 dates of birth of professional celebrities from various European countries and from the United States, I had to draw the conclusion that the position of the planets at birth is linked to one’s destiny.
The time of the previous and next culmination/anti-culmination or rising/setting
of each planet is also given for the purpose of validating the calculations.
Gauquelin sectors are calculated by dividing each quadrant into 9 sectors, for
a total of 36 sectors.
Sectors 1-3, 9-12, 18-21, 27-30, and 36 are the “plus zones” and a “+”
appears after the number of the sector in the list above. According to
Gauquelin’s research, a planet has a stronger influence when it is in a
plus zone. Planets in a minus zone, designated with “-“, are not as strong.
