• catalog abstract "Can the brain of an unborn child be linked to the cycles of the sun and planet? What if evolution, which has provided migrating birds with instinctual star-compasses, has also connected the human brain to the cosmos? What if behind all the hokum of daily horoscopes is a thread of truth stretching back through our genetic heritage? Astronomer Dr. Percy Seymour's controversial argument is that certain patterns of human behavior may parallel the motions of the stars because. Of a sort of inbred sky calendar much like that which naturalists see influencing the behavior of animals as varied as birds and crabs. Even more intriguing--and with even greater consequences for the argument in favor of a new scientific astrology--is Dr. Seymour's theory that planetary motion, by affecting sunspots and influencing the Earth's magnetic field, may subtly alter the neural activity of developing fetuses.
