The author, the late Theodor Landscheidt, was an astrologer.
Yup, horoscopes, neptune is in the ninth quarter, pluto is up uranus, etc.
In this case he applies his copious background of astrological and numeroligical techniques to link solar cycles to wordly climate events. Complete crap of course. Total bollocks.
I encourage everyone to google “theodore landscheidt astrologer” if you don’t belive me. He’s published on John Daly’s site because he couldn’t get any of his stuff into any real journals. I’m assuming because its total garbage.
If a fraud like Landscheidt is the best you can come up with, you are lost. Completely.
