I have seen maps that show the frequency of planets for actors/writers etc, charted in relation to the angles. John West's book looked into the matter quite a lot.
Gauquelin only worked with 4 planets - Saturn, Mars, Jupiter and the Moon, though he did look a little at Venus, too. It was the first four that showed up correlations between vocation, temperament and the sensitive placement of the planet - doctors and scientists were therefore sober and saturnine, athletes Martian and so on.
Jupiter was seen as being quite a bit more 'machiavellian' and less benefic than most astrologers have traditonally viewed it, however: it seems to be important for both politicians and actors.
I understand that since then, the Skeptics - as reported by Garry Phillipson . have questioned Gauqulein's techniques and claim in any case, these results do not 'prove' astrology at all.....
