28 SUN-EARTH-MAN: A MESH OFCOSMIC OSCILLATIONS
About 1968 to 1972: Upheavals and rebellions of students all over the world;
spread of hippies; Cultural revoIution in China; six day
Arab-Israeli war; new economic stmdures in
Czechoslovakia, suppressed by Russian invasion;
turnlng point in Vietnam; space travel; astronauts on
the Moon; Glomar Challenger expedition, plate
tectonics; first Aids infections; ecological movement;
Gnostics of Princeton; Pop art.
The next major instability event will start about 2002 and last till 2011. This is
an exceptionally long period. It is impossible to predict the details of its historic
effects. But the basic quality of all boundary functions will be evident: the years
past 2002 will prove to be another lurning point, a period of instability,
upheaval, agitat~on, and revolution, that ;ins traditional structures, but
favours the emergence of new patterns in society, economy, art, and science.
Furthermore, the rhythm in terrestrial time series that shows a connection with
the Sun's activity will change again. Perhaps people at the beginning of the
third millenium will be better prepared to realize the dangers and chances of
cosmic periods of change like these. Possibly, the holistic results presented
here will contribute to such awareness.
7. SOLAR TORQUE CYCLES, PRECAMBRIAN CLIMATE, AND
CLASSICAL ASTROLOGICAL CONJUNCTIONS
This is the end of our comprehensive example which demonshates the fertility
of a genuine holistic approach that integrates basic astrological ideas with
modern scientific knowledge. A single notion taken from the fields of
mathematics and physics, a simple model of feed-back loops or cycles,
seemingly infinitely apart from astrological views, when looked at in an
unbiased multidisciplinary way, has been shown to yield new results that
profoundly change our perspective Critics may object that impulses of the
torque (IOT), even if initiated by conjunctions of Jupiter and the centre of mass,
show no relation to traditional astrologcal constellations. But actually
conjunctions and oppositions of the giant planets play a vital part in the Sun's
irreguIar motion about the centre of mass (CM). The Sun reaches exkreme
positions relative to CM when traditional constellations are formed by Jupiter,
Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. When Jupiter on one side of the Sun is in
opposition to Saturn, Uranus and Neptune on the other side, the Sun's centre
and the centre of mass CM come together, whereas the two centres reach their!;
greatest distance when all of the four giant planets are in conjunction. he$
synodic cycle of Jupiter and Saturn with a period of 19.86 years and cycles of
double (39.72 yr), fourfold (79.44 yr), eightfold (158.9 yr), and 16-fold (317.8
yr) length are of paramount importance in solar torque cycles. They even
appear in the solar cycle in Precambrian tie, 680 million years ago, derived
from records covering more than 16.000 years. According to G. E. Williams"
the so-called "Elatina cycle" of solar activity, that shows a strong reiation, too,
with climatic cyclicity, has an average duration of $14 years. This is near to the
16th subharmonic (317 yr) of Jupiter's and saturn's conjunction cycle. The

harmonics of 79 and 157 years in the "Elatina cycle" match the fourth (7'9 yyr)
and 8th (158 yr) subharmonic of the synodic cycle of Jupiter and Saturn.
A further classical constellation, the triple conjunction of Jupiter, Saturn,
and Uranus, the period of which is 317.7 years, is lrnmed~ately related to the
"Elatina cycle" and together to torque cycles. As will be shown, one of the
most important torque cycles has a mean period of 13.3 years. It can be derived
from the conjunction cycles of Jupiter and Neptune (12.8 yr) and Jupiter and
Uranus (13.8 yr). The mean of both synodic cycles (13.3 yr) matches just the
torque cycle of this length. Interestingly, the remaining harmonics of the
"Elatina cycle" of 52,63, and 105 years can be derived from the 13.3-year torque
cycle. They are near its 4th (53 yr), 5th (66 yr), and 8th (106 yr) subharmonic.
There are many other relations that connect tradihonal astrological
constellations with torque cycles, solar activity, and terrestrial effects. This
shows that traditional astrology had hands on something, the precise contours
of which, however., can only be worked out by unprejudiced investigations
that make Interdisciplinary use of modern means of research. Astrologers
should follow the respective pieces of advice given by H. Eysenck.&
