A unusual scientific paper published in the International Journal of Advanced Research suggests that the human and animal anus could act as a kind of “cosmic antenna” capable of registering influences from the universe and Earth.
The study, titled “Comparative Exoforaminomancy: A Methodological Proposal for Assessing Cosmic and Terrestrial Influences on Human and Animal Anorectal Structures”, was written by Lana Aigrene of TB University and colleagues.
According to the authors, exoforaminomancy is the study of how external cosmic and terrestrial forces leave marks on the anorectal area (the anus and surrounding structures). They propose a new methodology that combines proctology, comparative biology, and cosmology.
The core of their proposal is the use of circular statistics — mathematical tools designed for analyzing cyclical data such as zodiac signs or planetary movements. The researchers recommend applying specific tests (Rayleigh, Watson-Williams, Kuiper, among others) to examine physical features like folds, wrinkles, and marks on the anus of both humans and certain animals.
They also suggest conducting experiments called “Cosmic Tuning” to test whether the anorectal region responds to external influences, treating it as a potential receiver of cosmic waves.
The authors conclude that their methodological framework could allow future studies to systematically investigate these ideas.
While unconventional, the paper aims to provide a structured, statistics-based approach to what has traditionally been considered a fringe or esoteric practice.
