Yeah, That could be a good supporting thesis of the mechanics. :) > > Seriously though, I wouldn't be surprised by this. So since lunar cycles effects on stock markets seem possibly credible, and since they play a key role in jyotish (lagna, dasha, etc)*, and since its a least a tiny bit plausible that other parallel planet/ graha cycles MIGHT possibly produce other discernible effects (Rahu, saturn, jupiter) on stock marekt and other measurable things, can you really claim jyotish is 100% bunk? I offer no proof, other than "small footprints in the snow" -- like the above study, but that alone, for me, keeps the door open at least a tiny sliver that there might be something to jytoish, as flakey and improbable as it sounds. btw, what field do you teach? That student video of you was hilarious. > > Did you read that book Supernature by Lyle (Somebody) way back when? > Very formative book for me. No. I will put it on my almost infinite list of books I should someday read. ------ * if you don't know what these are, you are in a poor position to evaluate jytotish.
