I've only read article on Gauguelin who took a lot of flack for his
research. I guess it just drove the "ego heads" nuts to think that some
things were out of their control. Occupational paths are often very
easy to determine, especially if the ascendant is a moolatrikona sign.
In many cases I already knew what the person did for a living and
looking at the chart you would say "no wonder." And you couldn't
superimpose some unrelated occupation on the chart because it would not
support it.
