| During
the first months of collecting data, the Pelayo family never played
when they entered the casino; their only purpose was to collect data
for their statistical analysis. After the first phase had ended,
however, and they had their results, they knew what they had to do:
continue to return to the casino every day, all day, but this time,
they would be playing… and playing… and
playing… They would, of course, be playing the number seven, at the wheel that, according to their study, was unbalanced. They played thousands of spins over the weeks, always playing that number. And they won. They won so many thousands of dollars, in fact, that the casino was not at all pleased. The management wasn’t sure how they were doing it, but knew that this wasn’t just “luck”. They tried to forbid the family entrance, yet Gonzalo went to court, and won: a casino does not have the right to prohibit you from entering just because you are winning (unless, of course, they caught you cheating, which was not the case). So the Pelayos kept winning… until the casino adopted a more sinister approach: suspecting that the family may be winning due to an imbalance in the wheel, they changed the wheel, re-positioning the numbers in relation to the base of the wheel. Thus, in order for the Pelayos to keep winning, they would have to start their statistical study from the beginning, to see which number was now favored on the wheel. A court ruled that the casino could not use such a procedure, since the roulette wheels may not in any way be manipulated by the casino. True, in this case, the casino was not trying to obtain specific results on that wheel; they merely wanted the results to be mere chance. Nonetheless, the law is the law. The Pelayos, meanwhile, decided it was time to use their strategy elsewhere. They started to travel to different places within Spain, and also to different countries. At each casino, they would spend a couple of months collecting results, then do their study to find the unbalanced wheels, and only then start to play. One can only imagine how stressful such a life would be: spending endless hours in the casino, playing hundreds of times a day, always playing the same game, the same number… but it paid off. True, they had their problems: one casino in Italy, most likely Mafia-run, simply threatened them; they decided it would be best to go elsewhere. In Las Vegas, the casino where they were playing kept an uncomfortably close eye on them; so much so, that they also began to fear for their safety. But after two years, they had amassed 2 million dollars. Deciding that the lifestyle was simply too stressful, they then thought it best to retire from roulette. Gonzalo’s son, Ivan, opened an entertainment business in Madrid with his share of the winnings; Gonzalo himself continued with certain gambling projects, though roulette was not involved in any of them. In this real-life example, we see how one group of people “beat the odds” in a way, though in fact, the odds at that table were really with, not against them, since they had discovered that the wheel was imbalanced, and would give a “7” more often than it normally should. There are other gamblers in the world who also end up in the elite group of “winners”, even over long stretches of time. How do they do it? Well, I don’t think that many of them use the “Pelayo method”, for few are the people who would be willing to spend months collecting data before they even began to play. Yet suppose a certain roulette player in Madrid, back before the Pelayos started playing, had had a “hunch” about a certain number... and suppose that he also had a “hunch” about a certain wheel… and suppose he then begins to play that number at that wheel.. and further suppose that the number he favors is 7, and the wheel he chooses just happens to be the one the Pelayos will soon discover to be imbalanced... You see what I’m getting at: in such a case, that other gambler would have won big, too, though he would have had no idea that the wheel was imbalanced. His intuition (or whatever you want to call it) would have led him the right wheel, and the right number… he would have simply been “lucky”. Though such things no doubt do happen, intuition is a slippery advisor: how can we know that that little voice inside us is leading us in the right direction? True, some people no doubt have a more reliable sense of intuition than others, but even those lucky ones, if they are under emotional stress, for example, will not always be able to count on their gift to give positive results. What other possibilities could there be that would give the gambler a better chance of being one of those few players who wins more than he loses over time? It is my conviction that astrology may provide an answer here. Before I continue, let me make it totally clear that I am not talking about “newspaper astrology”, otherwise known as “sun sign astrology”. Such nonsense – and yes, I don’t hesitate to call it that – will get you nowhere as far as your search for luck is concerned, or in other area either, for that matter. True astrology is not only based on a person’s sun sign, but on the entirety of his natal (birth) chart, a map of the planetary calculations at his/her birth, and based on the date, exact time and place of birth. You see, it can never happen that “all Libras”, for instance, have a lucky day. Some will, some won’t; some will have an average day, others a fantastic one; others will drop dead. Yet if we know exactly what kind of Libra we are dealing with – the exact degree of his sun, the exact positions of the Moon and planets in his chart, their angular relationships to one another, and their positions relative to the birth place – then we can indeed make predictions as to whether this particular Libra will have a good or bad day. Only this type of astrology – what I call “real” or “true” astrology, could ever have a chance of making reliable predictions about someone’s future. This is done by comparing the birth chart of an individual to the planetary positions at the present moment: evaluating the angles formed between birth positions and present ones, above all. Not that this is simple: in order to calculate everything, you need a specially-made software program, but even that isn’t enough: you must also know how to prepare the program so that the results it calculates show the most favorable/unfavorable times. And to know this, a lot of experience with astrology is necessary, most particularly in the area of the search for luck. Having spent years in this quest, I have been able to create a program that does exactly that: using a very large number of variables (including some that no other astrology program in the world has, to my knowledge), it calculates the times when you can expect to have either “good” or “bad” luck. Not that the predictions it gives you are 100% reliable: this is impossible, and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise! Yet 100% accuracy is not necessary if we wish to come out ahead when speculating, or gambling. All we must do is improve the probability of winning, so that in the end, we end up in that elite group of players who win more than they lose. The good thing about using astrology is that it is not “intuitive”, and is therefore not influenced directly by emotional states, as is intuition, for instance. If you have an aspect of Saturn to your Sun right now, for example, that fact will not be changed simply because you feel a certain way. Quite the contrary: you will probably feel a certain way because that aspect is present. Therefore if, your emotional state can have a possible influence on your “luck” (as is suggested in this article), then by using astrology, we can determine when it is most probable that we will be in a certain emotional state (whether positive or negative) and choose when to speculate/gamble, and when not to do so. Of course, the results might not be due to emotion: it is also possible that planetary aspects are rather a direct reflection of “luck”, a reflection that somehow then affects our emotions – but I see no need to theorize excessively. In the end, all that matters for the investor, or the gambler, are the results. And to know whether it is indeed possible for astrology to help you in your financial enterprises, there is only one way to find out: try it and see! Now, let me make it clear that there is no need to believe in astrology. Gonzalo García Pelayo serves here as a refreshing example. When I first visited him 15 years ago, I did so with the intention of asking him whether we might try an experiment, using astrology: I would tell him when it is best to play, he would play on the dates I suggested, and after a few months, we would compare the results to those he had had previously. His answer was quite interesting: “David, let me tell you from the beginning that I don’t believe in astrology. But that doesn’t matter. I have an open mind. Sure we can try it out! All that matters in the end is if we can improve our results or not. If astrology “works” in that respect, I’ll have no problem changing my opinion about it.” That is truly an example of scientific thinking: reserve judgment on something until you have tried it out. How I wish more people were that open-minded! At the time, I still had not developed the software necessary for a collaboration with Gonzalo; it took me and a programmer friend several years to develop the tools we’d need for such a task. And when we finally had the program, Gonzalo had stopped playing roulette, so we never were able to commence our project. Nonetheless, I am still determined to experiment, and that is why I created the site you are visiting right now.
