In a previous post, I described how non-dictionary word use in Amazon reviews peak in a periodic way in Mercury retrograde. I redid the analysis but also took out the common words "dvds", "DVDs", "apps", and "Apps" from consideration. (They would have been counted as misspellings before which I did not first realize.) I also applied the mean filter to a wider time frame, so that it would be more accurate in the window of July 1, 2009 to Jul 1, 2013: That was enough to reduce the peak at 9. (Perhaps, there was some kind of DVD and/or app release cycle that the 9 band referred to.) The result is that the fundamental in the transform is now at 13. That gives us the following for the fundamental wave: The peaks of this wave align very well with Mercury retrograde (demarcated by the gray bands), representing a regular increase of 613.789 percent from the average difference of blue actual value from gold general trend in the top picture during those times

This is amazing. Has another researcher had an opportunity to review your data/procedure/analysis?

A fuller, much more refined, approach is in the works with the same data and will be submitted for peer-reviewed publication very shortly.

I recently took this analysis two steps further, using an even cleaner methodology and AI. Really great stuff. See https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3220564/Kepler%202017%20Mercury%20Retrograde%20%20Presentation.pptx
