Is there any relationship between the times when babies are born and the synodic lunar cycle? There are published works that show that there is such a relationship. We have looked at 5,927,978 French births occurring between the months of January 1968 and the 31st December 1974. Using Fourier's spectral analysis we have been able to show that there are two different rhythms in birth frequencies: --a weekly rhythm characterised by the lowest number of births on a Sunday and the largest number on a Tuesday: --an annual rhythm with the maximum number of births in May and the minimum in September-October. A statistical analysis of the distribution of births in the lunar month shows that more are born between the last quarter and the new moon, and fewer are born in the first quarter of the moon. The differences between the distribution observed during the lunar month and the theoretical distribution are statistically significant.
婴儿出生时间与农历月周期之间存在关联吗？有已发表的研究表明存在这样一种关系。我们研究了1968年1月至1974年12月期间在法国发生的5927978例出生情况。通过傅里叶频谱分析，我们能够证明出生频率存在两种不同的节律：——一种每周节律，其特征是周日出生人数最少，周二出生人数最多；——一种年度节律，5月出生人数最多，9月至10月出生人数最少。对农历月出生分布的统计分析表明，出生人数在农历月的下弦月到新月期间较多，在上弦月期间较少。农历月观察到的分布与理论分布之间的差异具有统计学意义。
