How about reverse engineering the question with two advantages a) & b)
Get the public to send in their photos ( snail mail plus email ) - 3 or more
pictures of a person, by
a) offering to have astroface try to find their double ( a letter explaining the
process could be copied from the astroface website. When anyone sees a
potential 'double' on the street, they can hand the stranger the astroface
letter and say "I think that a friend of mine is your double, so give me your
email and phone number and I'll tell them to contact you." and/or "Go to abc
where he/she works and see for yourself" The prestigiously worded letter handed
out at the same time as you speak removes the fear of a stranger approaching,
and the human nature ego response of most recipients is teased by
b) the intrigue of finding someone who looks exactly like them.)

Moishe, since most people only know the Sun sign, this would focus on the Sun
sign ( only for this proposed project ). Once you have posted the photo matches
perhaps you can attempt to analize for matches of their more error prone moon or
ascendant. Without presuming what forces contribute to the face, this approach
might show that the Sun sign controls more of specific features. Am I nuts, or
if it's not too labour intensive do you think you could modify this idea into
something useful ?
Jason seems to be on track - Someone who speaks/writes in German needs to do a
lot of detective googling and probe for lost friends of Edith Wangemann in
Germany.

Forward this message thread far and w-i-d-e
because you do have a double out there ... somewhere.

Subject: [astrofaces] Re: further research


Very impressive web site! I really want to discuss with you about
this whole project.

Throughout the years, I've been doing researches on astrology
myself. One of the most interesting topic is how the natal chart can
reflect our appearances. What I want to say for the moment is that
the way to find this out would not be as simple as your assumptions,
i.e. Sun Sign + Moon Sign + Ascendant Sign.

There're couple of astrologers putting efforts on similar researchs
like your in human history. One of the best books on this topic
is "Astrological body types" written by Judith Hill. Although the
book has given a lot of valuable information on this topic, none of
them can be repeatedly duplicated in real life cases. You results
will probably come out like hers. 3 or 4 of 10 cases are strangely
outstanding. The rest 6 or 7 cases does not work. I believe the
method used (such as Sun Sign + Moon Sign + Ascendant Sign) is not
correct or too simple.

Until I was able to buy the out-of-print book "Recent Advances in
Astrology" by Geoffrey Dean, I have some idea how should the method
to be applied. The book has mentioned about the successful works of
Edith Wangemann. But, I'm very disappointed that the information is
not detail enough. The only thing I know is that there are some co-
relations found between the cusps of Koch House system and Human
faces. The problem is that I can read German and I would not be able
to reach further information about Edith Wangemann's work.

Althought she has just passed away, I was wonder if you will be able
to find the further information of her works.
