アディーへの弔辞が掲載されています。
John M. Addey (1920-1982) is the world wide famous researcher of the system of astrology. 
  Although he has commenced his study in the connotation of spiritual field of research, 
  however, he has aimed his target with the aid of scientific method after 1960s to the 
  basic construction of the art of astrology that has been lurked behind the scene for 
  long. He has past out in 1982 on his age of 62 in the acute pneumonia suffered. 
  For the details of his life, please see CYOUHA・SENSEIGAKU・NYUUMON, by H. M. Gen 
  ISHIKAWA in HIRAWAKA・SYUPPANSYA released. Memorial note to Addey by this author was 
  published in 1982 Summer edition of The Astrological Association (England). 
アディーの功績としてはアディー調波が有名です。人々は占い技術にばかり注目をしますが、アディーの
功績はむしろ直接の占い技術でなくて、占星学の基本的な仕組みを解明するという地道な努力にあったの
でした。アディーの研究の材料はフランス人ゴークランの約5万人の出生資料でした。ゴークランは
心理学者ですが占星学に疑問を持ち占星学が誤りだという証明をしようと考えヨーロッパ各地の登記所を
巡り出生記録を調べました。成人後の職業と成功・不成功が判明している人物約5万人をゴークラン資料
として1955年以降に順次公表しました。
アディーはゴークランが公平に収集した資料を使用したのです。
ゴークランは占星学が間違っているということを証明しようとして資料を集めましたが、その後占星学が
正しいことを知って反省の言葉を述べています。
Harmonics in Astrology is the famous title of his work. People are interested in his art of 
  prediction. Instead, the most wonderful contribution of Addey should be the exploration of 
  basic construction of the art of astrology that must be in an honest way of progress that 
  only a few students have devoted the works concealed. Addey analyzed the marvelous birth data 
  of fifty thousand people or more that were compiled by Michel Gauquelin (1928-1991) of France 
  released. Gauquelin was a psychologist and he was in a serious doubt on the reliability 
  of the art of astrology. He was in mind to certify his belief on the unreliability of astrology 
  and has visited the registry offices in Europe to compile the records of birth of person as 
  well as the acceptability of the society either in successful career or not that was achieved. 
  Gauquelin has released his works in sequence after 1955. Addey was lucky enough to use 
  the Gauquelin notes that were described without having any  prejudice of fanatic belief 
  on the astrology destined.

 It was because Gauquelin was in a  suspicious on the art of 
  astrology in his works of compilation performed. Gauquelin afterward has changed his mind 
  and he was shameful on his hastiness in his youth that he has once placed a serious doubt 
  on the reliability of astrology lurked. 
長い占星学の歴史の中で多くの研究者は占星学を信じている人々ですから、収集する資料も占いが的中した
ことを宣伝するために占い営業に有利な材料で有名人として宣伝価値の多い資料を集めて研究してきました。
これに対して、ゴークランは占星学を否定しようとして有名でない一般人の資料を集めました。そして、
生まれ時刻が正確に記録されていて、しかも成人後に社会でどのような評価を得た人物であるかを正確に
記録した一般人の資料を5万人以上集めたのですから、偏りがない公平な資料ということができます。
  During the long lasting years, the most researchers of astrology have come from the people that 
  believe the art without doubt. Therefore, their examples are selected to make profit for their 
  propaganda campaign of astrology demonstrated. Gauquelin, on the other hand, had intended to 
  deny the function of astrology and has selected data on the people of ordinary life that are 
  enjoying the conventional daily life at the town found. The data of Gauquelin in the number 
  of fifty thousand or more are compiled from the ordinary persons of exact birth moment 
  are registered and their social accessibilities after growth are also studied. Thus, the 
  data will be most fair and unbiased information without any intention of propaganda involved.
