Dear colleague(s),

My co-researcher Thomas Siegfried (* 29.5.1956, 14h 15m MET,Kaiserlautern/D), I (*15.10.1944, 6h 35m a.m. MET, Goerlitz/D) and the IAS-Team would like to invite you for taking part in three of our actual research projects which we are in the process of preparing:

1.) Research Project Astrologers / RPA: This project has 3 main goals: a.) Building up a comprehensive collection of historical as well as contemporary astrologers (including biographical informations) to honour the pioneering work of many generations of astrologers all around the world, who dedicated their life to the queen of all sciences, b.) attempt to discover wether there are astrological factors which allow astrologers to feel and understand esoteric energies easier than ordinary people do and c.) ( - in case we get enough feedback as well as finding sponsors and advertisers - ) to produce a low cost CD-ROM, the WORLD ENCYCLOPEDIA OF ASTROLOGERS , with the whole collection of data and biographies (sorted by countries) and with according research facilities (e.g. keyword search).

2.) Research Project Eros / RPE: (- Often researched, but still interesting): Statistical research about possible astrological factors for homo and bisexuality (male/female), perverted sexual behaviour, prostitution (female/male) and extreme forms of heterosexuality.

3.) Research Project Night-Owl / Early Bird / RPNE: Statistical research about possible astrological reasons why there are day- and night orientated people and why there is a time altered rhythm in 10% of the world population (-which equals the procentage of night-orientated animals and plants). Newest international REM-Research verified this fact which will have future consequences for flexible individual working rhythms, school and education, hospitalisation, wiser use of his own potential etc. There are already many activities of civil rights groups to bring this message over.
