Market Time and Price Townhall

The WD Gann "Map of Time" defined by the line and chapter structure of his "The Tunnel Thru the Air" spans 168 years or 1/15th of the Biblical Great Week of 2520 years. Beginning on June 22, 1848, its notable hallway point falls on the last line of the book and ascends to June 21, 2016 which is the last day of the 168 year period.

In the last month before the midway point of the MOT, a month long series of earth quakes hit Jalisco Mexico beginning with an 8.2M quake on June 3, 1932. The quakes continued throughout the month with a 7.7M on June 18 and ending with a 7M on June 22, 1932 (the first day of the second half of the MOT). Casualties were low as 1932 Jalisco Mexico had few multi storied buildings and most people were living outside after the first quake on June 3. The 1932 Jalisco earthquakes created at least one 6 foot tsunami that was registered in San Diego and Hawaii, but damages were minimal.

Today a series of four earthquakes ranging from 4.1M to 6.2M hit the Jalisco Mexico coast (blue below). Below is the USGS map of earthquakes in the last day in the US:

Separately, the the 1932 stock market bottomed July 8, 1932 and, relative to the last battle of the fictional Great War in the Air that occurred on July 4, 1932, occurred within a trading day or two (from memory), has led many to claim (and I agree), Mr. Gann predicted the stock market low of the Great Depression. July 4, 1932 would have been 12 days into the second half of the MOT.

As I watch this latest rise in markets, I wonder if the opposite of 1932, a top, will be happening at a date near the end of the the MOT on June 21, 2016.

Double check my recollection of "facts." Just thinking out loud,

Jim Ross

I hope the Noxious Ones will be right this time and I am wrong, that "You've really lost it now, Jim." I'd make that deal in a second.

To leverage on three posts regarding June 5, 2016, I was "pointed" towards page 52 of WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air" by the Pythagorean enumerated name of a popular contemporary person, number 52. Referring to the page of TTTTA by that number I found the date June 5, 2016 in Ezekiel 8:1 and 8:14 (note the dates in green):

I interpreted that verse to say an event, comparable to the fictional destruction of Los Angeles in TTTTA, would occur on June 5, 2016 (the day and month is in the range from May 29, 2005 to June 11, 2005 and the year is the cumulative line number in red above). I wrote an essay regarding that interpretation on May 29, 2016 named "June 5, 2016, part 1 of 3." As I was wrong about the nature of the February 23, 2016 event that did take place (the largest U.S. earthquake in over a year occurred that day), so I was wrong about June 5, 2016. But, like the error on February 23, only wrong by degree. As the earthquake on February 23 was smaller than predicted, so the date of the event, June 5, was off...only marginally. That event will occur June 9, 2016.

There isn't any mention of an event of Biblical proportions on page 52 and, hence, June 5 (which is April 15, 2016 plus 52 days explained in the linked essay) was not the proper date. Which brings up the content of the entirety of Chapter 5 of TTTTA. The first paragraph of that chapter is a reflection of Robert Gordon's study of the Bible night and day as he perceived necessary to save his beloved United States. After that first paragraph, the entirety of the 12 pages of the chapter is scripture and Robert Gordon's interpretation of cited scripture. Really Mr. Gann, why would you place these boring Biblical things in a fictional book if it were designed to sell copies?

Because you, Mr. Gann, deemed the content of Chapter 5 of immense importance. Those 12 pages are your prophecy of the events that will occur beginning with that May 29, 2016 essay. On that line, cumulative line 2021, chapter line 120, "God fell there upon me." And to the right on that line you will see May 29. It is the day I caught on to the meaning of Chapter 5.

[As a side, did anything happen on June 5, 2016? Yes, some of the most vile, disrespectful, even Satanic events that I documented real time, that day.]

There is an interval of time (highlighted in green above) on page 52 that ranges from May 29 to June 11 and that is embraced by the message "sea" highlighted in red above. The interval begins on the red highlighted line "2016" also above. May 29, 2016 to June 9, 2016.

There is a comparable period in the 1932 fictional "Great War in the Air" (GWITA) depicted in TTTTA. Symbolically in 1932, the US fleet was sent to confront the forces of the Allied Enemy, whereupon their entering the Pacific, were destroyed by bombs dropped from a "very high altitude." Soon thereafter, the City of Los Angeles was destroyed. In TTTTA, LA was destroyed in the "middle of May" and the fleet was destroyed near shortly beforehand.

In the symbolic 1932 GWITA, Japan declared war in "April 1930" and, assuming that means April 15, the battles aforementioned occurring in the "middle of May" occurred 30 days later. The next event after LA is the assault on the line from Brownsville to El Paso on exactly August 1. From those 3 dates (two of which are simple averages or means) are derived three intervals in time of 30, 108 and 78 days:

An initial interval or "initial vibration" of 30 days extrapolates, given reasonable mid month assumptions, to the circle and Phi^2 of the dependent time intervals of 108 and 78 days. Perfectly. Both of them, perfect and simultaneously perfect. 3.600000 and 2.600000. Random luck? Coincidence?

In 2016, Japan, again symbolically, declared war on the U.S. on April 14 and April 15 with two great earthquakes that vibrated around the seismically active Pacific Rim...but no earthquakes in the U.S. Assuming April 14, 2016 as an anchor date comparable to April 15, 1932, what then is or will be the endpoint of that "initial vibration?" It is June 9, 2016 reckoned from page 56:

Cut to the chase. On June 9, 2016 there will be an event comparable to the symbolic destruction of the U.S. fleet in the Pacific in 1932 followed quickly by the destruction of Los Angeles that night through the following day. At the most extreme, the initial interval could be anchored to April 15 making June 10, 2016 the latest possible date.

To color it further, I believe there will be a deep ocean earthquake off the coast of LA resulting in a tsunami that "destroys" its coast and wreaks havoc throughout the City. Page 278; note dates in green:

I have far less authority for this interpretation. In the 1932 TTTTA attacks, bombs were rained down on the fleet and Los Angeles from a very high altitude. My interpretation is that great waves will destroy the fleet and the City from far away. The Pacific Ocean shelf is about 144 miles off the coast of LA. That distance would be traversed in a matter denominated in less than 2 hours. The fleet, then the City, just as in 1932. But waves instead of bombs.

Why page 56? My authority for predicting this event is found in Chapter 5 of TTTTA and the three "Map of Time" excerpts of this essay. There are two citations from Chapter 5 including the page 52 cited in the very first paragraph above. The other citation is from page 56:

Again, note the critical periods in green. Page 56, the interval of days in green between April 14, 2016 to June 9, 2016. June 9, 2016, 110 years following the birth of Robert Gordon in 1906 to the exact day. 110 years from the date of the first page of TTTTA. 110, the mathematic result when you multiply the 30" width and 8" depth of WD Gann's grave stone and deduct the total number of years Sadie and WD Gann lived (53+77, respectively). The date is June 9.

Now take note of each narrative bold, underlined and italicized word above. And that is where page 52 was the wrong interpretation and page 56 is the correct one; Ezekiel 35:8. "And I will fill his mountains with his slain men..." Nothing happened on page 52 other than the act someone (me) making a prediction on May 29, an incorrect one at that. On page 56, something is prophesied as happening that kills many people. My error, page 52, and the correction, page 56.

So as in 1932 the United States preemptively rushed its fleet into the Pacific to be destroyed, the United States has preemptively rushed its coordinated "fleets" of first responders, directed by FEMA, to the Pacific Coast in a simulated response to a great Pacific event of Biblical proportions; Cascadia Rising. The simulation is ongoing now, spanning June 7 to June 10, 2016. More than 20,000 Federal and state responders are presently staging Cascadia Rising, and as the fictional Pacific fleet was destroyed in 1932, much of the U.S. response resources might be so destroyed on June 9 and 10, 2016.

I find great synchronicity between the fictional events of 1932 and events ongoing now in 2016.

*******

The best case scenario is "You've really lost it now, Jim" and, if that proves true, I will consider it a blessing and absorb, again, my lesson in humility. Richly earned over my lifetime.

On the other hand, the WD Gann "Map of Time" is presently within 13 days of ending its 168-year period and ending a period that, as I've argued, ends a Great Biblical week of 2520 years from the Babylonian Exile. The former, 1/15th of the latter. The MOT presently shows our position in time relative to those two endings:

You will find June 9, 2016 on cumulative line 7 and chapter line 7 on the MOT; or 77. You will see those horizontal solid lines indicate the vacant three pages between the cover and title page.

Cumulative line 7 and chapter line 7; the age at which Mr. Gann passed 77 years and 12 days. 12 days before the summer solstice in 1955. And tomorrow, June 9, 2016, it will be 12 days before the 2016 summer solstice. 61 years apart. And what is the last page of Chapter 5?

Lines 7-7, or Mathew 7:7. How many times did WD Gann cite or paraphrase Mathew 7:7? We find it 3 times, twice paraphrased (lines 89 and 2749) and once formally cited:

I cannot help but consider the phrase in yellow and the names in red to be other than a sign. But that's me.

If this essay proves correct, it will only be a beginning of a chronologically determinable series of disasters of Biblical proportion.

[NOTE: When I hit the publish button, this will be the 333rd essay of this blog presently at 332 published. You should recall the Pythagorean enumeration of my given name, James, is 12 reduced to 3 and my day of birth in the month of February is 21 reduced to 3. 33 according to Luo Clement's interpretation. Other than the post number that this essay will represent when published, do you see "33" in any of the inserts above? Twice would be the answer.]

Jim Ross

WD Gann repeated key concepts in his "The Tunnel Thru the Air" much as Philo of Alexandria recommended to force the reader to perceive the importance.

In connection with the "6th Manifest Prophecy" I researched the number of occurrences of the word "Ata" referring to his prediction of Muhammad Ata and the 9/11 terrorist attack. Separately, given a long fixation on page 130 of TTTTA and its first sentence "God forbid that America ever turn away from the Bible" I had noticed the repetition of the last stanza of the "adapted" poem "My Bible and I" (from The Logos, vol 44, page 41):

On line 5033 you find the beginning of the last four lines of the poem. Robert Gordon was so impressed with the truth of these lines, he repeated them on line 5075.

There are 15 instances of "Ata" in TTTTA. There were 15 terrorists on the 3 airplanes that successfully attacked the WTC and Pentagon on 9/11. And in just 40 lines of TTTTA's 15341 lines, there are two of the instances. Of course, we can spell "Mohammed" as is highlighted in blue in a near arrow like formation, pointing left to right.

Let me call your attention to the line in yellow.... Mohammed Ata "put error to flight."

Perhaps, Mr. Gann is emphasizing a key event in the history of the U.S.? Assuredly. But, as you might expect, there is far far more.

There are other important words spelled in the above excerpt but I'll not confuse what's presented with a lot of colors. Steven Hahn informed me you can spell the words "Stealth Bomber" with the acrostic and telestic letters found between lines 5035 and 5066. And you can. They are not nicely ordered as are the very clear words "Ata."

So what's the "tell?"

Look for the light green shaded date above and ask yourself "When was the Stealth Bomber unveiled?" November 22, 1988 per History.com.

What an amazing page, that page 130 of TTTTA. The number of years Sadie and WD Gann lived. The 6 asterisks, inexplicably found in one and only one place in TTTTA and found in one and only once place in Luo Clement's (WD Gann IMO) "The Ancient Science of Numbers" on page 45.

And to circle back, is not "God forbid that America ever turn away from the Bible" the underlying thesis of Rabbi Jonathan Cahn's "The Harbinger." Is not 9/11 the first warning?

Sadly, it is relatively easy to identify Mr. Gann's prophecies in hindsight. I was remarking to a friend yesterday that it would take even the most vacant minded person not to recognize the obviously misspelled "Mammouth Building" aka "the 110-story Mammouth" aka "the Cedar""the tallest building in NYC" was, the fictional representation of the World Trade Center.

Figuratively speaking, American Airlines flights 11 and 77 and United Airlines flight 175 were much like the Stealth Bomber.

Back to hindsight. It's easy to see the importance and correlation of 110-story to the WTC once the event has occurred. It wouldn't have been so easy to see it before the first attack in 1993. Finding Mr. Gann's forthcoming events yet to occur...well, that's not so easy. Lots of mistakes when you have to 'imagine' what is being said in code. So it is with today's prediction of a Pacific Ocean event that affects Los Angeles; its all clues and interpretation. Not so readily apparent.

Jim Ross

A 5.2M earthquake, with aftershocks, hit Barrito Springs CA at 8:04am UTC or within 4 minutes of midnight June 9/10, 2016 (PST not PDT). It is shaded in blue in the below USGS map.

As most readers are aware, I predicted a devastating earthquake to occur among Hoover Dam, LA and SF on February 23, 2016. That did not occur. But the largest U.S. earthquake in more than a year did occur that day in Wasco, CA. It was 4.9M. People in SF and LA would not have felt it.

With my greatest level of interpretation "comfort," I felt the symbolic destruction of the U.S. Pacific Fleet and LA staged in WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air" would be realized in real time on June 9, 2016. Again, I am wrong. But NBC reported some 16 million people were in the area that would have felt it last night...if they were awake.

But in being wrong, perhaps its by degree. Perhaps February 23 and June 9 are last warnings. That my making these, personally felt errors, would not be warnings without my "chicken little" behavior.

Per morning news, again, the tremor and aftershocks were felt by an estimated 16M people.

Per morning news, the 5.2M is now the largest U.S. earthquake (lower 48) in more than a year. I will need to check just how far back that goes, seems that was a 6.3 in the north west this year.

Per morning news, seismic "experts" insist there isn't any connection with the 6.1M Nicaragua quake that hit Puerto Morazan at 5 hours earlier than the 5.2M in California. Do you believe that?

Per morning news, the San Jacinto fault that was activated last night will not necessarily stimulate the proximate and dreaded San Andreas fault. Does that give you comfort?

If you live 1000 feet above sea level in LA in a single level, single family home, should you feel comfortable? Again, one contributing scientist to the 2015 Pulitzer Prize winning "The Really Big One" indicates surviving the "big one" in an affected area might be worse than perishing. Think about that.

I had much personal introspection overnight. Yesterday, I was chided by a friend living in LA 1000 feet above sea level, "I'm still here this beautiful morning." Fleetingly, part of me wants something bad to happen to prove my insight. A personal victory for me. Isn't that the way of the world these days? And I resolve, as best an imperfect person can, I won't be that way. That is not what WD Gann would have taught. That is not what Jesus taught in Mathew 7:7-12, ask, seek, find and.... wish for others what you would have wished for yourself. The Sermon on the Mount.

Hmmm, Mathew 7:7-12. Mr. Gann passed on June 18, 1955 having lived... 77 years 12 days.

I didn't do that....Synchronicity.

Jim Ross

Recall from the previous essay, the synchronicity formed of William D. Gann's age when he died and what would appear to be one of his most cherished Bible verses (Mathew 7:7 alone was repeated a notable 3 times in "The Tunnel Thru the Air" once formally and twice in paraphrase). His life span was 77 years and 12 days which corresponds Chapter 7 of the Sermon on the Mount:

I have often considered, "Did WD Gann know when he was going to die?" I confirmed that thought partially based on an incorrect line count in the WD Gann "Map of Time" several months ago in an essay, "Did WD Gann predict when he would die?" Still, there are indications in that essay that he knew the number of his days. [I do not go back and correct or eliminate essays. They are simply the record and I forgive myself my mistakes. I've become very forgiving these days.]

What if, just what if, his name was an anagram for a message. No, his name alone didn't work so well. Let's look at his grave stone to see what is actually spelled there (picture taken on the August 1, 2015 second trip and GPS screenshot taken on the November 15, 2015 third trip):

I'm going to disregard the "Beloved wife" comment as an obligatory social comment of tribute and concentrate on exactly how the names are spelled.

William D. Gann - Sadie H. Gann

I took the liberty of inserting a hyphen. What would those letters, rearranged, spell? Here's one spelling that uses every letter and none more than once:

You might want to consider the voluminous research devoted to the concept of the 'shaman' at this point. And then reprise the question, did Mr. Gann know the number of his and Sadie's days?

There is so very very much more to add in researching this stone but I've said much before, I've discovered much since and much just this morning. Too much for the limited attention span of most people yet nothing which a truly inquiring mind would discover with only this coaxing. I will, therefore, pose numbers previously suggested which would seem most timely.

The upper die of the stone is 30"X30"X8." Eliminating the redundancy, 30X8=240. And the combined life span of WD and Sadie Gann was 77+53=130.

240 years is the age of the U.S. this July 4, 2016. This year is the 130th since the Statue of Liberty (which can be seen from Mr. Gann's grave in winter when the trees are bare) was dedicated in 1886. A third number might be derived and might further triangulate on and describe 2016; the number 240 - 130 = 110. Triangulating and searching backwards from 2016 to 1906 (2016-110=1906), what happened in 1906 of note? What non fictional event occurred in 1906?

Might you find 1906 in the first paragraph of the first numbered page (1 and 1 or 11) of TTTTA?

There is so very very much more but so little time... but just one more. It would take too much space and the reader, if the reader even got this far, would have lost the trail by then, to say how I get to the next assertion. I'll simply make it and you can make of it that which you have faith to do:

Ezekiel 33:33, did a prophet walk amongst us? Are we to realize this in the aftermath of something?

[With discomfort I point out you might recognize the number 33 from previous essays. And to point out a unique property of the MOT, that dates of solstices always align on or within 1 line of the same line just at the two red highlighted dates so align above.]

So very very much more.

Jim Ross

If you've worked with online anagram solvers, you know that the more letters you give them, the longer they take to give word solutions. And the more letters, the more solutions. Just reading the solutions for a modest number of submitted letters to see if any make sense typically takes an unreasonable amount of time.

However, some solutions just pop out at you. Take the previous essay in which the words WD Gann and Sadie H Gann appearing on their monument produce not only an intelligible phrase but one that makes sense. Why does it make sense? Months ago I proposed that Mr. Gann knew exactly when he would die. This phrase generated from their combined names indicate that determinism was in the works from their birth. If you believe in determinism, its a confirmation. If you don't, you might find the implication, well, uncomfortable.

So, a bigger anagram scrabble. Let's take the full title of WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air or Looking Back from 1940 by WD Gann" that you find on the inside title page.

Solved, unsolved, corrected and re solved. Well, at least one solution. It took me maybe an hour, a good soaking in a hot tub, and an "allowance." The allowance was for the numbers comprising "1940." In Luo Clement's table of Pythagorean values a 1 could be an 'a' or a 'j' or an 's.' A 9 could be an 'i' or an 'r.' A 4 could be a 'd,''m,' or 'v.''0' is a problem as there aren't any letters to substitute for '0.'

So, one hour, a good hot tub soaking, a little Pythagorean letter for number substitution, and correction of a mindless error gives me:

"Look Thru Tunnel for a giddy Barack Obama winning the thr0ne." The substitutions are in red. The one non Pythagorean substation is an "o" for "0". The letter 'o' for zero. Would seem appropriate....a bit of poetic license Mr. Gann?

Except for the 'o' for '0', the message is perfect. It uses every letter with only the allowance of substituting a, i and d for 1, 9, and 4, respectively. It doesn't use any letter twice. And the substitution is something Mr. Gann (Luo Clement in my long held opinion) would consider a meaningful activity; err, I think he would.

Does the message make sense? Yes, there is a substantial contingent of "right wingers""set in their ways""clinging to their guns and Bibles" who believe President Obama will not go quietly into that retired politician goodnight. Our leader for.... '0'. For infinity?

I am sure there are alternate products of all the letters of TTTTA including the author's letters. Please do provide any that you may conceive in the "comments" below. Three conditions or rules. You must use every letter, must not use any letters twice, and there must be a contemporary message that makes sense. Mr. Gann wan't much of a jokester. He seemed a very serious person.

Yes, long ago I found Barrack Obama in the acrostic/telestic wording. It is a zig-zag word with a very unclear message. Not a defensible message that I'd offer.

Mr. Gann's gravestone as previously mentioned, 30"X30"X8". 30X8=240 or 1776 plus 240 to equal 2016. The 240th anniversary of the founding of the U.S. representative democracy under the Constitution of the United States... the 4th of July, 2016.

A king to end the 240th year? Hard to decide whether its the facetious and conservative side of WD Gann or whether its a serious prediction. No opinion here, but I'll be looking for the places in TTTTA where previously I found President Obama encoded. After all, that's where Mr. Gann clearly tells me to look.

Jim Ross

[Petter Amundsen did somewhat that which I accomplished above with certain of the letters and words of the title of TTTTA based upon his suspicion that it indicated a WD Gann methodology related to the lunar return. Very very intuitive. In fact, I owe having found acrostic and telestic encoding of TTTTA to Mr. Amundsen who, apparently, became side tracked with the Shakespeare/Stratford-on-Avon controversy and Oak Island. In his book on Oak Island he found acrostic / telestic messages that led to Lord Francis Bacon as a contributor, at least, to certain Shakespearean works. That I can find, Petter did not discover that encoding in TTTTA. There is a paper of his in the public domain on the title of TTTTA and the lunar return.]

Studying simple pre modern cryptology (Lord Francis Bacon, a large character in WD Gann's thinking, wrote one of his first books on cryptology), I thought it interesting that 100 years ago this coming January, Germany was plotting a strategy to involve Mexico and Japan as allies opposed to the United States in World War I. Sound familiar relative to the Allied Enemy found in Mr. Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air?"

The Zimmerman telegram as sent via telegraph on January 19, 1917 and decrypted:

Obviously, I believe and am pursuing a deeper level of encryption in TTTTA (heck, the hundreds of "experts" in WD Gann in 89 years since the publication of TTTTA had not, heretofore, discovered simple acrostic telestic encryption) but that's not the point of this essay. The point is the 100-year cycle (which I believe to be a rounding of the actual cycle length).

Nevertheless, there seem to be several near 100-year echoes here in the wake of the election of the 266th Pope. Consider the echo of the map that Wikipedia presents that was the Zimmerman proposition to repatriate to Mexico the southwestern U.S. Might that represent the fast changing demographic character one might suspect is occurring in southwestern U.S. presently?

Where in 1917 Mexico convened its military leadership and considered the German proposal and determined it not feasible, might that not be the same determination were it so approached by China and/or Russia in the modern era? Mexico, in 1917, didn't determine it not to be the "wrong thing to do" but found it not feasible. At least, that's my reading of the, sadly, sometimes questionable reflection of history by Wikipedia. Still, how are our relations with Mexico these days? Both with President Obama and the GOP nominee? And what's the implication of the rapidly changing demographics of the southwest.

WD Gann's 100-year cycle, a FIXED cycle.

Switch gears, the 168-year cycle of the WD Gann "Map of Time." The theory is history repeats according to that NOT FIXED cycle. At the bottom of the MOT you have 2 days separating the right side of the MOT and with each line moving upwards that difference expands by 4 days. When you move 15341 lines to the very first line of the cover of TTTTA, you find there is 168 years is the difference between the date on the right, June 21, 2016 and the date on the left June 22, 1848.

On the last day of the MOT, wouldn't the poet in us, the sense of symmetry, demand that there be an echo of the past some 168 years previous? Yes.

What happened in 1848 versus as present?

The "Year of Revolution" in Europe where, in some European 55 countries were in open, chaotic revolution. How might one typify Europe presently?

1848 was one of them most active periods of the open agitation by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels in Europe. They lamented the failure of their ideal socialist revolutions, a challenge later accepted by Russia, China, Cuba, North Korea and other countries whose enlightened rulership imposed their will, and misery, on their populace. Has a socialist even been so close to a Presidential nomination before in U.S. history as is Burni' Bernie presently? Has one been so outspoken of "revolution" (clarified as political revolution) and widely accepted.

In 1848, the U.S. was rapidly expanding from 'sea to sea.' We find the 1848 Mexican-American War where the greatly superior forces of the U.S. were used to expand some considered proper uses of force to annex the southwest territory. Military minds at the time, including many that became top military leadership on both sides of the Civil War, were divided on the use of military force in a lesser conflict to assault Mexico City and force the annexation. 168 years later; the demographic annexation of the southwestern U.S. perhaps willed and supported by U.S. leadership?

The MOT is an ongoing thing. Sometimes events are predicted pointedly, perfectly, such as 9/11 where the date of 9/11/2001 is identifies the number of innocent deaths that day (cumulative line 2693 plus chapter line 283) and the acrostic/telestic message "Path to WAR." Sometimes its just an echo of an ongoing process as implied in the above bullets.

Now, both the 168 and 100 year cycles. The former, 168 years and its reflection in TTTTA, reconciles perfectly to 1/15th the Biblical Great Week reckoned from "the Exile" and as recounted many times in essays offered heretofore. The latter, from what might it reconcile? Perhaps:

168 years / Phi = 103.83 rounded to 100

I certainly don't know, but it's an interesting thought.

Lots of echoing seemingly going on in both the 100-year and 168-year cycles.

[Ominously, the above map of the southeastern US and the green area seem uncomfortably similar to the battle lines of the first Allied Enemy campaign of the fictional "Great War in the Air" which I have interpreted as a time line of natural seismic disasters.]

Jim Ross

Did you take a dive?

Amidst the most powerful description and proof of WD Gann's mathematic and scientific methods, "The Ticker Interview," an independent party follows him on the market floor for 25 days as he enters and closes 286 trades incurring only 22 losses.

Reflect for a moment on your "Random Walk" training (indoctrination). Yes, there's a trend in large numbers which "Random Walk" allows, but certainly never amounting to greater than a fair commission rate (my background on Random Walk is, alas, dated). Forget the dollar weighting, 286 coin flips, how many do you think will be heads or tails? Certainly not a distribution of 264 heads and only 22 tails. Not in my lifetime of flipping. Only Nasim Taleb's "Tony the streetwise bookie" might make...errr, heads or tails out of that flipping fantasy.

I have long felt and expressed my feeling that Mr. Gann's perfect and exact methods did not allow for 22 losses. The only reason he'd 22 losses... "take a dive"... would be to make it fashionable. Would it be safe for a person to demonstrate such perfection? His associate and friend Renato Alghini makes the case in his "Preface to Second Printing" of "The Magic Word" by WD Gann:

So I ponder, did Mr. Gann take 22 losses to make it look good? If so, that willy wabbit would have left something to let us know he did. Or at least, to let those of us who believe in what he so often styled as methods he discovered which rise to the level of accuracy of pure deterministic mathematics. So, what in that Ticker Interview paragraph might be the 'tell?'

22. A "clew" perhaps? I woke up, again attending our K-9s last night, and laid there, thereafter thinking the number 22. 22 losses. That's a lot like the only two-digit numbers found in the acrostic telestic encoding of WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air." In TTTTA there were only three two-digit numbers in 15341 acrostic letters and 15341 telestic letters; 11 as an acrostic, 77 as a telestic and 88 as a telestic. Like the two-digit number, 22, each was two-digit and the same number. 11, 77 and 88 are numbers about which I've written several times.

Okay, we have 22. Look at the remaining 264 trades that were not losses. How many of the consecutive two-digit numbers comprised of a single digit, e.g , 11, 22, 33....99, can be derived from the number 264? All of them:

Three numbers, 66, 33 and 11 can be derived by dividing 264 by 2 three times and then dividing by 3.
Three numbers, 88, 44 and 22 can be derived by dividing 264 by 3 three once and 2 two times.
And the remaining three numbers can be derived by adding combinations of already derived two-digit numbers.

Not proof for anyone who doesn't already 'have faith.' For randomites, its just fun with numbers.

It sure is intriguing to the finite math guy. Yeah, I know, far too much time on my hands.

Jim Ross

You'll need to have read theimmediately preceding essay to understand this one. The question was posed whether Mr. Gann took 22 losses in one month of trading as an observer recorded his 286 trades in 25 days; only to be "fashionable." I contend Mr. Gann could have recorded 286 winners but he "took a dive."

Let's add to the amazing mathematics that might be derived from 286 trades, 22 losses and 264 winners. Already on the table is the two-part reductions of the number 264 to arrive at the same end, 11 which create the quotients 66, 33 and 11 (in yellow) and 88, 44 and 22 (in purple). The third part of the series giving all 9 two-self same digit numbers creates the latter from the already formed former, namely the numbers 55, 77 and 99 (in blue). Here's that table from the previous essay:

Not really the new ground or 'color' promised in the title but I did add some color(s). Okay, here's the alluded new ground in a table:

Four points:

1. In green. Look at the two-part reductions in the first table. In the first of two you divide by 2, 2, 2 and 3 and in the second you divide by 3, 2, 2, and 2. Those series of divisors each add to 9 and arrive at the final product of 11.

2. Look again at the first table at the red highlighted numbers. The first reduction is 132 which divided by the smallest reduced number, 11, gives you 12. 12, one of Mr. Gann's favorite numbers. You can extend the math game to the number 264, the number of gains. That divided by 11 gives you 24 or the first square of 12 or...the number of hours in the day.

3. What about that third series of numbers highlight in blue? Those 3 numbers are spaced by the number of losses...22.

4. Is there nothing more we can do the numbers? In tan of the second chart, you'll see the division of many of the numbers is a consistent 1.5. Not presented, you will find similar divisions producing 2, 1, 1.4 and 1.8.

What an exquisite number that 264 derived from one of its subsidiary products, the number11. Did Mr. Gann coincidentally, derive this display of numbers by randomly choosing to enter 286 trades and randomly incur 22 loses?

I don't think so but I have a low threshold for proof. I've seen too much.

*******

When once I marveled over the 286 trades with only 22 losses, a noted person emailed me to inform me that a student of Mr. Gann and published author of his revelations had traded in silver and gold in the 1980s and created a great wealth from a modest trading fund; those results were audible from receipts and the record can be found online. I did the same thing, having started with less than $10,000 September 1, 2008 and closing my accounts on September 29, 2008 with a seven digit number which I deposited in the bank out the back door pending option settlement.

[A tip of the hat. Robert Prechter put his academic record on the line and entered and won the 1984 U.S. Trading Championship. Obviously wrong a lot of the time, he demonstrated an "edge" which he proved true in a short time frame. My 2008 success (and later failure) was based on that same methodology, my lack of any discipline and the "Henry Watson pathology" found on page 200 of TTTTA).]

The differences in our respective stories are 1) I lost most of that money (save for my adequate retirement fund) in the next 4 years proving I didn't know diddly, 2) I did it over a 3-week period where he did it over years in the 1980s in the most bullish metals market in history, and 3) he sells his studies of WD Gann for thousands of dollars per course where I provide whatever my questionable insights for free. My points being, can you buy the true perfect knowledge of WD Gann? Well, he isn't selling that as I can determine (although it might be advertised as such) and I don't know it.

So, I'd make this challenge. I don't have a lot of money but enough that I'd fund my time and expense to attend anyone who would walk the NYSE floor (of course, this could be done sitting in an office with a person or person present and auditing the results) trading for 25 days to see if a trading record could be amassed rivaling 286 trades with only 22 losses. I'll put together a coalition of my alma mater CPA firm and the other major CPA firms and, jointly, we "will walk the floor" with anyone willing to undertake this challenge. I think all of us, except the one trading, would have a jolly good time.

Obviously, I do not expect anyone selling WD Gann trading courses to risk their market franchise to accept such a challenge. First, they don't have that perfect system and second, if they had that knowledge, why would they risk their personal safety in dramatically demonstrating their possession of it?

Some numerology according to Luo Clement (IMO, a non-de-plume of WD Gann).

If you go to Wikipedia or his personal bio page, he seemingly accepts the name Bernard "Bernie" Sanders. I cannot find a middle name to which he admits. And, according to Luo Clement's "The Ancient Science of Numbers" you can c,hange your vibration, right down to the minutest degree represented by the middle name we'd assume, by changing your name.

Also, his birth date is September 8, 1941.

Bernie's birth number is simply '8' for the day he was born according to Luo. According to L. Dow Balliet, its different. But let's stick with the WD Gann, err, Luo Clement method.

The name number, well, whether his given name is Bernard or Bernie, its 8.

[Note added 6/20/16. The middle "Bernie" auto sums correctly to 34, but, not realizing the reduction to 7 isn't automatic, I copied the formulas from "Bernard" to "Bernie." The 8 under the 34 is simply incorrect as is obvious to someone backtesting my work. It is simply an error on my part that one should consider while reading the remainder of the essay. I try not to change work that's already been posted both because it confuses and distorts the record of errors I make and because it takes too much time that otherwise can be spent on new ground.]

So, Bernie's number, comprised of the most important the birth number followed by the second most important element, the given name, is 8-8 however you parse the given name. And if you add the last name, it is 8-8-8.

In this 168th and last year of the present cycle of the WD Gann "Map of Time," we have a candidate, Burnin' Bernie, who espouses the master theory of socialism and "political revolution" that Karl Marx used 168 years ago to inflame worker passions and embroil 55 European countries revolution. 1848, the "Year of Revolution." The MOT is seemingly designed to mirror the events of time. 2016 and 1848 would be the comparison indicated.

Hahaha, everything is free in Bernieworld. Even the area code created by his name is a free phone call.

8-8, kinda reminds me of Revelation 8:8, perhaps?

I won't get started on the Pacific Coast or the number 88, one of only three two-digit numbers encoded in TTTTA (the other two are 11 and 77 which add to 88). There's not an end to the things I could write given the research I've previously offered.

I wonder if Burnin' Burnie will take San Francisco given it's enumeration is '8.'

Jim Ross

As anyone reading the essays on this blog know, I have presented the case for and structure of WD Gann having encoded into "The Tunnel Thru the Air" a "Map of Time." The MOT spans the 15341 vertical lines of the MOT and when "doubled" (as per page 45 of TTTTA) gives you 30,682 days or 84 years and when "redoubled" (again, per page 45) gives you 61,364 days or 168 years. At 168 years, the period of the MOT is 1/15th of the Biblical Great Week of 2520 years, or John Dee's Monas Heirglyphyca philosopher stone number of 252 X 10. 84 years descending downward at 2 days per line on the left side of the MOT and 84 years ascending upward at 2 days per line on the right side of the MOT. The left side of the MOT (84 years) is theorized to form a basis for similar events repeating on the right side of the MOT (84 years).

And so, on the last day of the 168-year period of the MOT, that being June 21, 2016, history should be in the midst of repeating that which occurred 168 years ago. And there are those indications; 1848 was the Year of Revolutions in Europe where yesterday we witnessed the ongoing signs of dissolution in Europe with the Brexit vote, 1848 was the year of "sea to signing sea" with the forced acquisition of the U.S. southwest from Mexico where this year we hear of increased, though minor, talk of Texas exiting the Union and many states ready to vote for the Constitutional Convention.... In 1848, Europe had Karl Marx and Fredrich actively promoting the socialist utopia and revolution and now we have the first credible presidential candidate promoting socialism and "political revolution. In 1848, Europe, amid the revolutions, France had a great recession that spread to other countries where the 2016 U.S. stock market is reaching/has reached its highest all time high; something that would appear to be an exact opposite.... Many more similarities and opposites between 1848 and 2016.

What about the half-MOT period? What happened in 2016-84 = 1932? In the last weeks of the half-MOT period and beginning June 3, 1932, there were a series of earthquakes in Jalisco Mexico that ended with a 7.0M tremor on the last day of the half-MOT (the summer solstice) where, in 2016, where on June 7, 2016 there was a 6.2M earthquake centered at Jalisco Mexico with after tremors. More relevant to speculators, on July 8, 1932 or 16 days after the June 22, 1932 half-MOT point, the Dow reached its lowest low of the Great Depression.

Wouldn't we expect some similarity at both the 168-year MOT endpoints relative to the 84-year half-point? Or perfect opposites?

It's not a clean comparison, after all, many have noted "history rhymes" as opposed to necessarily repeating. Revolutions, generally, don't have a "bright-line" between their beginning and end. There isn't a single date to say "this is the one day on which the revolution occurred." And, despite what many people think, earthquakes are a process of pre shock, main shock and after shock.

Look at the evidence and make up your own mind. Of course, anyone reading my work knows where I'm "at." With that bias in mind, I ask myself, was yesterday's Brexit outcome a defining moment in the stock market? And I think "Yes, but..."

The "but" is, the July 8, 1932 bottom of the Great Depression occurred 16 days after the halfway point of the MOT. The current MOT ended on June 21, 2016, and, poetically, symmetrically, I'd like to think the final all-time high or opposite the great July 8, 1932 low, is yet to occur. Another 2 weeks to make it poetic, symmetric, perfectly opposite.

Looks pretty bad for that "guess" doesn't it. As I began writing this essay at 5:45am EDT this morning, Dow futures were down 453 and the other indices were down 3% plus. Presently, at 8am EDT, DJIA is down 529 or 2.95%. I'd say, that 'guess' is way out there on the 'fat tail' of probability based on today's events and market position.

Would it make poetic sense to show the top of the greatest stock market bull to have topped on May 15, 2015 at 18351, some 14 months before the end of the MOT on June 21, 2016? Wouldn't it make more poetic and symmetric sense a higher high is forthcoming in the near immediate future?

So, that gives me a subjective belief there will be a great stock market whiplash in the next 2 weeks. Not mathematic by any means. A guess based on the MOT. I have proved the line counting and format of the MOT by several encoded devices Mr. Gann provided for just that purpose; proving its mathematic integrity. But I've also proven to myself, I don't know how to use it. A compass in the hands of a person who doesn't know how to use it remains accurate despite the holder's ignorance. And the user remains lost.

With my subjective, poetic and symmetric license and the MOT as a general background, and though immensely improbable, I expect a final high in the market in the first two weeks of July 2016 followed by years of lower lows. I have enough confidence in my forecast, I will put 0 dollars on it. Nada.

One last notation. I have recently (June 20-21) discovered mathematic / geometric relationships in the 1921-1938 DJIA market that encourage me that to believe I will find the mathematic "solution" to the current stock market. The "solution" is not of the nature as say, Elliot Wave or Fourier wave, or astrology, or any form of correlation reduced to mere probability or educated/scientific guess; all being "solutions" that give a savvy speculator an 'edge' to the market. I'm thinking 2+2=4, not 3 < (2+2 =) < 6 .

The solution I am perceiving is a Euclidian and Descartesian solution to the four-dimension reality of the stock market. WD Gann could do it and proved it. It's "out there."

Jim Ross

According to the sometimes questionable but always somewhat informative Wikipedia, Napier's Constant (aka "Euler's number", aka "e") or 2.718.... is one of the most imminently important numbers alongside 0, 1, Pi and 'i.' Notably missing from WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air" are Phi and metrics of Platonic solids, sqrt(2), sqrt(3), sqrt(5) and many other notables. At least, missing for the naive and lazy reader. Let's find Phi, Pi and Napier's Constant or e.

I've found Pi and Phi popping up all over the place in TTTTA in unmistakable encoded methods that make it impossible to deny their author intended inclusion. For example, we find "De Pisa" for Leonardo of Pisa, aka Fibonacci spelled out in the very meaningful area of the "Tao to WAR" device that spans the very meaningful page 69 which presents the Jonas, Book of Jonah citation:

Oh, we find Phi encoded many ways, not just the name of its originator; the structure of TTTTA approximating Phi^2 or the number of times artifacts of my name (37 times) versus Mr. Gann's name (23 times) are found encoded in TTTTA. There are several essays in addition to the above linked that find Phi.

Phi, well, its a 3-letter word and the probability of finding it the many many times it is spelled in consecutive letters, is improbable. But how do you encode a two-letter word like 'Pi' and make it compelling for the reader to say "yeah, Mr. Gann intended that we find and take notice." A three- letter word is slightly improbable, but a two-letter word, not improbable at all. He found a way.

Dramatically compelling is the finding of Pi encoded in TTTTA. We find the encoded word "Pi" spelled on cumulative descending line number 11566 (see brown highlighted):

Hardly compelling, a 'P' acrostic and 'i' telestic letter on the same line. But my birthdate (February 21 in red) caught my attention. Well, its not your birthday (probably), so what might be compelling?

Could it be considered coincidence that the cumulative ascending and descending cumulative line numbers and ascending and descending chapter numbers might be combined to give Pi to the fourth decimal? No, Mr. Gann intended that I find Pi.

So whereforaught thou Napier's Constant, reputed by Wikipedia as important as Pi? Phi was three letters, Pi was two letters; gosh, Napier's Constant or 'e' is one letter. Here's where I started looking, the line at which the cumulative descending line number divided by cumulative ascending line number equals the Napier's Constant or 2.718. Here is where we find that number:

We find that line is 11216 / 4126 = 2.718 ( green highlight) and on that line Robert invents a device to intercept and decode enemy communication. Very notable. Perhaps an invention that uses Napier's Constant? I work with the acrostic and telestic letters but I can't find a spelling of "Napier" or "Euler" or "constant." Interesting but not compelling.

At a loss, I stewed on it and then it came. Let's find the same combination of cumulative lines but reverse the ascending and descending. Here it is, again, line numbers in green:

This time, we find Mr. Napier spelled in yellow and "_onstant" spelled in yellow. If I cheat a little, I can substitute the "K" or the "c" and I have "Napier's Konstant."

Still, I'd been more happy if I'd found the "C." Hmmm, "C" is the basis of Pythagoras diatonic scale. Hmmmmm, Pythagoras enumeration of letters would find that "C" is the number 3 and 3 is the rounding of e; for those in Rio Liondo, 2.718 gets rounded UP to 3. ....I'm happy.

*******

As I continue on in studying TTTTA, I'm sure I'll find e confirmed by other devices just as I discovered many means for confirming Phi and Pi. But that's not an endpoint; simply discovering something. What do you do with the knowledge found during the quest? There are three implications in my fertile imagination.

First, in the extensive excerpt I made of page 301 above, Robert Gordon discovers the detailed plans of the enemy to mount a battle campaign beginning at the Gulf of Mexico, extending up the Mississippi to the Great Lakes, capturing from northwest Texas to southern Canada. That is what I consider the "second enemy campaign of the Great War in the Air." As I've alluded in other essays, this will be the symbolic image of Yellowstone seismic events (2017-18) that will occur after the conclusion of the first enemy campaign which is ongoing (latter calendar year 2016).

Second, Robert Gordon creates an invention which, in adding the clues, is based at least partially on the mathematic properties of e. In the description of the invention, Mr. Gann weaves in the properties of light, cryptology, and wireless; all inventions of the last four decades. The backbone of the land and wireless telephony is fiber optics; yes, cellular depends on the nation and works fiber optics, not on wireless. Cellular calls are broadcast only from the nearest towers and are thereafter carried largely by light over fiber. And all of the messaging is carried via encryption; hence, the 'annilfier' forced the enemy forced to broadcast over analog, unencrypted, or barely encrypted, technology which was decipherable.

And finally, an invention will be found that will allow a person to predict future events; seismic events, terrorist events... It won't be a "correlative" invention. It will be an analytic solution giving as much detail in the nature, location and participants in events as Mr. Gann has given in predicting other events that have occurred in the 89 years since publication of TTTTA. Events in such minute detail as one might have found my address and professional designation (not to mention my name) encoded in TTTTA. And Mr. Gann did just that as documented in the 7th Prophecy.

Napier's Constant, yeah, that's an important relic for my "attic." I'm sure I'll find use for it very soon.

Jim Ross

This essay picks up where "Brexit, 168 and 84 years ago, and the Dow," left off. To jump to the bottom line, July 8, 2016 and Dow 19,000. I don't 'know' that, WD Gann didn't say it, but its what I am watching as a 'test' of my recent market concepts.

That previous essay linked above proposed a thought I'd had for several months. Where the mid cycle of the 1848-2016 WD Gann "Map of Time" marked the low of the Great Depression stock market, would it not be "poetic and symmetric" for the end of the MOT to mark the all time highest high in DJIA? I proposed that thought the day the Brexit vote hit the market, last Friday, dropping the Dow to a low print of 17,356 that day and a low print of 17,063 the subsequent Monday. Didn't look like a good time to make that proposition.

To be more specific about the basis of the proposition, the Dow Jones Industrial Average printed 40.56 on July 8, 1932 which was 17 calendar days after the mid point of the 168-year MOT cycle. A half MOT later would be July 8, 2016. WD Gann enthusiasts claim Mr. Gann predicted the 1932 low was evidenced by his timing the July 4, 1932 final Battle of Washington DC for that day, ending the fictional "Great War in the Air." I agree, as if that means something.

The existence of the MOT created in the structure of WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air" begins on the 1848 summer solstice, has a mid point at the 1932 summer solstice and ended on the 2016 summer solstice and began again the next day, June 22, 2016. Today, July 1, 2016, we are at the 10th day of the new MOT. If we were to count from July 8, 1932 one full MOT 168 years period, the end of that period would be July 7, 2016 or next Thursday and the 17th day would be July 8, 2016.

Those are some metrics. Now, for what I believe is going on. And to derive 19,000 as an addition to the 'proposition.'

The structure of price-time (space-time). We all know the conjured up belief that the market is "geometric." After all, Mr. Gann said so, dozens, hundreds of books have said so, thousands of us believe it. But there isn't anyone that has publicly proven, other than WD Gann IMO, the consistent predictive ability of those supposed geometric properties. At least, that I can find and read. Some say Dr. Baumring, but I haven't sprung for the pricey materials and I don't accept his trading record in metals, though great and something I'd beg to have, the rival of the Ticker Interview's 286 trades.

Bradley Cowan, in "Four Dimensional Market Structure and Cycles" explains the DJIA unfolds as tetrahedrons fitting within the cube (notably pages 74 to 84 which you might compare to TTTTA pages 75 to 84). Again, FWIW, I agree. Look at it:

Obviously, the above is a 2 dimensional view of what might be perceived as a 3 dimensional Platonic solid (a tetrahedron with x, y and z coordinates) that ultimately represents a 4 dimensional phenomenon (the supposed hyper tetrahedron having x, y, z and t coordinates).

How can we model the 4 dimensional case of the tetrahedron in 2 dimensions? "As above, so below" as Mr. Gann paraphrased from the Bible. As well, but without adequate proof, I suggest that the "Einstein Editor," a pen name of WD Gann and who published a series of articles in Scientific American, plainly of (paraphrased out of recollection) "a perfectly good geometry describing four dimensional calculations (the Lorenz transformation) can be created from Euclidian (planar geometry) principles and Descartesian coordinates (i.e. x, y and z).

Where we can't "see" four dimensions because we do not have the "third eye" about which Sir Arthur Eddington spoke, we can understand the order reflected in lesser dimensions. In three dimensions, we know that to get from point A to point C on a straight line we must pass through point B. We know that if we are to live 70 years that, at some point, we are 55 years of age. There is order both in space and in time. Given a route from say Virginia Beach to Brooklyn and a perfectly known and constant speed of travel and absence of traffic, we can compute exactly where we will be 3 hours into the trip. There is order both in time and space; jointly.

With Mr. Cowan's "Price Time Vector" (PTV, application of the Pythagorean 3-4-5 triangle to markets where the sides A and B are time and distance, properly "squared") and the concept of the tetrahedron in 2 dimension perspective orientation, I can "see" one number pop up recurrently and with perceived but not yet documented predictably; some permutation of Phi. Be it, the third root of Phi, its square, its fourth iteration in the Fibonacci sequence (5/3=1.666).... Phi is always in the relation between paired sides of the 2 dimensional representing of the tetrahedron. Time and space are related by Phi. At least, in my most recent days of experimentation with these concepts. Its a work in progress.

Again, "as above, so below." If order exists in the fourth dimension, then that order must have reflection in lesser dimensions. Can't prove it. Maybe this is "Rossie's Axiom" but I suspect its hardly unique in thought; I'm just not widely knowledgeable to know otherwise. If all things are ordered then the laws of the fourth dimension must have structure in relationships and, therefore, calculations that might be performed in the second dimension; the stock market.

So, do we find phi in the stock market and how does this tie to July 7/8, 2016 and 19,000?

July 7, 2016 and Dow 19000, a test of the Phi structure of space-time? Consider some math:

Two years ago, I'd oogle at that math and think it, whether it had already occurred or was yet to occur, as spiritual, itself too compelling not to believe it would not occur. It might be spiritual, but its also mathematic. And actually, I did retrospectively find Phi from the 1932 low having related to the 2000 high (from recollection). I find tons of meaningless numbers forming persuasive and compelling arguments for tops and bottoms in the market. A few of them actually worked, but only a few. I've made market 'bets' on them...some very big bets. I've written essays, early on, in this blog which are testaments to my ignorance that I won't delete because I want to remember where I've been. Some numbers are truly 'centers of gravity' like Pi, Phi, 168, 252..... and when you make guesses, if you use them, I believe you increase your odds. But that's the allusion to order, not the order. They tempt us that an order exists, but they aren't the order, itself. They aren't the final answer.

What's different this time, to echo a recent essay and market sentiment? First, many experimental notations of Phi as the arbiter between time and price (space) as measured by the PTV. Second, the order of DJIA is the tetrahedron as it rotates in our 2 dimensional chart view of the market time and price. Third, the MOT. In 1932, the low occurred 17 days after the MOTs half point and 17 days after the MOT's end is July 8, 2016. Those are the propositions and July 8, 2016 Dow 19,000 is the "test." I would accept July 7 under the thought that July 8, 1932 was a beginning and July 7, 2016 would be the last day before the next beginning....thus the end.

*******

The "test"... I give it 60% 40%. Last week, I had only the time element in mind when I proposed July 8 as being a sentimental, "poetic and symmetric" point at which DJIA might wish to put in its highest all time high. Last week, at the 17,300 or so pre market when I posted that essay, it looked very bad to utter such at thing. But now, at 17,929 (yesterday's close), well, not so much. 19,000 seems a much greater stretch given how far we've already come. But isn't that the how the great bulls most typically end? The "parabolic top." As time runs out, price vibrates wildly as I recall.

So, why double down and call for 19,000 on or before July 8? Its not a call. Its a test. Not advice, not proven math but a proposition as a test of the possible math that might be found.

In the highly unlikely DJIA pushes another 1100 points from yesterday's close in 5 trading days.... Well, if it happens then that's great, but I wouldn't hesitate a second to close my position at 19,000 or before. In other areas of study, I find suggestion, only suggestion, of very concerning events around the July 8 and after. Better safe than otherwise.

Jim Ross

I'm sure somebody said that. So it was with something of that mission I began studying (began again) cryptography yesterday between Khan Academy lessons on linear transformation compositions. I really need a life.

And my studying through the history of cryptography....not modern cryptography but at its state in the early 1900s...I was led back to Lord Francis Bacon. And that led me to the book of a Mason scholar, Richard Allan Wagner. If you've read WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air" then you've read but not recognized Mr. Wagner. On pages 20 and 21 you will find his name spelled with the first and last letter of each line, Richard highlighted in red, Allan highlighted in yellow and Wagner highlighted in blue:

His book which I stumbled upon was "The Lost Secret of William Shakespeare" (free for download) in which he presents a chronology of the life of Lord Francis Bacon, the believed to be son of Queen Elizabeth I and Robert Dunbury, Lord of Leicester, Bacon's tutelage by Dr. John Dee (the first "007"), Lord Bacon's involvement in the "Knights of the Helmet""invisible" society, and writing of the works of Shakespeare, the development of Rosicrucianism, , and most of all, Lord Bacon's use nom de Plume, ciphers and other devices to encode meaning into otherwise, apparent plain text.

What a sentence. Been reading too much old stuff. The "most of all" is the important part; that being nom de plume, ciphers and other devices. But first, the teacher of the teacher (as my proposition goes) would be, working backwards WD Gann < Lord Francis Bacon < Dr. John Dee. Hmmm, that might be relegating Mr. Gann to a lesser status and that's not the intent. So first, recall John Dee is not mentioned in the narrative of TTTTA. But I found "Dee" 45 times, exactly, in the telestic encoding of TTTTA.

Hmmm, 45 times, sounds like Mr. Gann's attraction to the 45 degree angle. But I wander. You ask, "Dee" has very common letters...could be random. Nope. There is a second name for John Dee which he used in his secret correspondence with Queen Elizabeth I; "007." Google it "John Dee" and "007." And that second name, "007," is found as a telestic word in the perfect center of TTTTA by lines reckoned from the first page of Chapter 1. There are 22 occurrences of "Dee" before "007" and 23 occurrences after, adding to 46 when including "007." Here's "007:"

Now the student of John Dee, Lord Bacon. We find him once and once only in TTTTA holding a Bible, we'd think the King James Version, pronouncing "There God speaks" on page 126 of TTTTA. How appropriate that Lord Bacon, holding the Bible translation which many attribute to Lord Bacon's guidance in development. Perhaps Lord Bacon encoded his wisdom and that of John Dee in the KJV hiding it in the unique style and nuance of the KJV? Might Mr. Gann, having studied the Bible so relentlessly, been knowingly studied Lord Bacon? Many say Mr. Gann carried only the KJV of the Bible. Interesting.

Now, what were some of the ciphers used by Lord Bacon that WD Gann might have used? My study of Mr. Wagner's book is only beginning but the first thing I checked was the manner in which Lord Bacon used ciphers. He used several ciphers listed by Mr. Wagner; simple, reverse, short and Kaye, aside from the Pythagorean symbol group (Luo Clement's table of values appearing in "The Ancient Science of Numbers"). Those ciphers are available on page 60 of the free download book linked above. And with those cipher tables, Mr. Wagner indicates Christian Rosenkruetz, via Pythagorean values, and Shakespeare via simple cipher, compute to 103. Here are the calcs on the left side of the below in red:

So, remembering the many essays in which I've offered WD Gann = Luo Clement, I have always been perplexed and frustrated that Clement's table of Pythagorean values would not equate any permutation of WD Gann's name ("William D. Gann," or "William Gann" or "WD Gann") to Luo Clement (who that anyone can tell never existed). I knew Mr. Gann would confirm that Luo Clement was a nom de plume of WD Gann via letter number values. And so, I had to try the calcs implied by Mr. Wagner's tables.

The "Elizabethan Kaye cipher" applied to WD Gann does equal the application of the "Elizabethan reverse cipher" applied to Luo Clement at 137, highlighted in yellow above.

If I made a calculation error, please don't tell me as in my present state I'm happy. I knew that equivalence had to be out there and I now have a 'happy ending.' Harmony reigns.

Did the genius student of the genius teachers use their methods of encoding in TTTTA? Yes, the nom de plume Luo Clement and the confirmation via letter number encoding. I've only begun to study Mr. Wagner's identification of methods. I find it promising.

Happy 4th of July in advance,

Jim Ross

Yesterday I fell into a trap set off by a simple spreadsheet error. The trap was my own euphoria over what I believed to be a discovery. Perhaps in the error there is discovery greater than otherwise would have deserved. I hope so. First the error amid the corrections, both of which I will explain.

To the left of the table of four Elizabethan ciphers is the error highlighted in yellow. The upper row of number 25, 25, 25, 51 and 9 are true reductions of the two letters appearing above it, "WD." The lower row of those same numbers results from my absent minded copy of the upper row though it is supposed to be addition of the letter values appearing in the column above it. The true values for that row would be 34, 66, 16, 86 and 18 that you see on that same row directly right of the Elizabethan table.

From that error, I jumped, first, to the conclusion WD Gann had adopted his first name as "WD" as it fortuitously was the same numeration as his last. Second and worse, the addition of those values resulted in a sum that, when reduced, was exactly equal to that of Lord Francis Bacon. Again wrong.

We now have the corrections above and to the right of the Elizabethan table of ciphers and there are insights, lesser ones, but value to be gotten. Enumerated are the names, WD Gann, Francis Bacon and William Gann. The format is designed to compare Mr. Gann's adopted name and original given name to the original given name of Francis Bacon.

William and WD. Why did Mr. Gann change his original name "William Gann" to "WD Gann." Luo Clement said in the first paragraph of the first page of "The Ancient Science of Numbers" or "TASON" (curiously and inexplicably, at least to me, numbered as page 7):

If your given name is inharmonious with your birth number or surname (in that order), you change it. WD Gann's birth number is 6 as he was born on the 6th day of the month (June 6, 1878, which is notably 6-6-6 in single digits) incompatible with the Pythagorean value of "William" which is 7. They are not in the same triad as instructed on per page 31 of TASON.

What's Mr. Gann to do, having inharmonious birth and name numbers of 6 and 7, respectively? He adopted the name "WD" which are his initials and numerate to 5+4=9. And 9 is in the same triad as his birth number 6 providing the triad compatible numbers of 6-9. Inharmony solved. And to double down, his given name (in red above) and surname (18 reduced to 9 in purple above) are each 9; I'd say that is, err, harmonious to an exponent. And 9^2 is 81 which can be reduced to....9.

William and Francis. Time to make a distinction. In the spreadsheet insert above, five cipher values are used, four of which are Elizabethan values for letters and a fifth is Pythagorean values. The four Elizabethan value systems were ciphers designed to identify a person in hidden communication as distinct from a number system. The Pythagorean system is designed, based on Luo Clement's explanation, to understand and manipulate one's harmony and harmony relative to the environment; to affect vibration.

To what would we look to see if two persons, each born to given names William Gann and Francis Bacon, respectively, had similar vibratory properties? Similar vibrations? We'd look to Pythagorean values, not to the Elizabethan values. And what is the enumeration of William and Francis?

Both William Gann and Francis Bacon had the given name number of 34, reduced to 7 as highlighted in red in the above spreadsheet. Both had birth numbers that were incompatible with their identical name numbers; William's was 6 and Francis' was 4. William's birth and name numbers from birth were 6-7 and Francis' (born January 22, 1561) was 4-7. Both sets of numbers were inharmonious.

WD Gann changed his name number by adopting his initials "WD," but Francis, I would argue, never changed his name number. While he had many titles and was often referred to as "Lord Verulam" for his title Earl of Verulam, his hidden communications discovered by Baconian authors (including 32nd degree Mason, Richard Allan Wagner in his "The Lost Secret of William Shakespeare"), Bacon identified himself by the numbers 67 (Elizabethan simple cipher for Francis highlighted in green above) or by 33 or by 111 (Elizabethan simple and Kaye ciphers for "Bacon"). Clearly, the use of '67' in Elizabethan simple cipher to identify his first name indicated he had not changed his Pythagorean name number of 4. His birth and name numbers remained inharmonious.

WD and Francis. WD Gann's name change caused their natural numeration give at birth of 34 reduced to 7 (again, in red in the above spreadsheet) to depart. WD Gann's name number become 9 and concatenated with his birth number, 69; harmonious. Bacon's name number remained 7 giving a combined number of 47; inharmonious. We might expect the course of their lives to take somewhat different paths relative to one another.

WD. Mr. Gann's adoption of WD relative to William created some incredible results highlighted in blue above; 25, 25, 7, 51 and 9 reduced to 7, 7, 7, 6 and 9. Parse those striking numbers three ways:

77. The number of years in WD Gann's life, 77 years 12 days. A recurrent theme of TTTTA, Mathew 7:7, ASK. One of only three two digit numbers found in the acrostic/telestic encoding of "The Tunnel Thru the Air." 77 has meaning in religious systems from Islam to Christianity. Page 77, where we find a description of WD Gann's mathematic and scientific method; finding the cycle, predicting the "curve for the future" and applying the Law of Vibration to it.

777. Similar to 77, vast spiritual meaning bringing in the Tree of Life and other concepts.

69. The "number" of WD Gann given the substitution of "WD" for "William." Obviously, one of if not the most notable of pages in TTTTA highlighting the 3 days and 3 nights of the Book of Jonah(s) and Mr. Gann's assertion that a man that knows the meaning thereof is most powerful. Less notably, a reflection of the birth date of Robert Gordon, June 9 and his 69 Wall Street address.

36. You don't find the number 36? Add all five numbers 7, 7, 7, 6 and 9. A very interesting number.

I could write a lot about the benefits of the change of William to WD.

*******

So why study Lord Francis Bacon? Purely historical, interesting but nothing else?

Early on in my recent study of TTTTA (December 2014) Lord Bacon caught my eye when he cameo'd in TTTTA holding a Bible and declaring "There God speaks." Petter Amundsen who studied WD Gann and then moved over to the Stratfordian debate and Oak Island, lamented, as I recall, being unable to source or corroborate Lord Bacon having made that declaration. Indeed he did as I found.

But why was that quote placed in TTTTA? What did it add? It added Lord Bacon, John Dee, the King James Version of the Bible, the development of which was overseen to some extent by Lord Bacon, it added Lord Bacon's teacher, mentor and the genius Dr. John Dee, cited 46 times in the encoded messages of TTTTA.... And given the encoding methodologies of Bacon and Dee, is Mr. Gann giving us a clue that their encoding methods were used in TTTTA? Study the teachers to understand the student. Interesting, having said many times the Bible was the source of his knowledge, I have read in many places, Mr. Gann used only the KJV of the Bible; the singularly unique version in which Lord Bacon was known to have been a great if not the greatest influence in its translation and presentation. [I am also told the only available English translation of the Bible in Mr. Gann's time was the KJV version.]

Now, why study the relative enumerations of the birth and name numbers of WD Gann and Lord Francis Bacon? Well, didn't Luo Clement do it in TASON beginning on page 109 in the chapter entitled "The Supreme Test." Don't we test propositions given us? We should. If nothing else, you should check my math judging from my error of only yesterday.

And what do we derive from the study the relative enumerations of WD Gann and Lord Bacon and their live's history. Its purely subjective but here's my take. WD Gann changed his inharmonious name and lived a relatively, as best we can determine, peaceful life. There were disappointments, a failed marriage, a lazy son, but certainly not the problems of Lord Bacon. So the well documented speculation goes, Lord Bacon was forever denied being able to acknowledge his true ancestry, unable to name himself as the prolific author of works otherwise supposedly written by the uneducated horse handler/grain merchant/money-lender, William Shaksper who hadn't a clue regarding royal ascension or the nature of much of works attributed him... Lord Bacon who was stalked by arch enemies of court most of his adult life and, ultimately, imprisoned. [I expect you can guess which of the Stratfordian, Oxfordian or Baconian camps I have joined.]

One man changes his name to live harmoniously and it, seemingly, works. Another born under similar inharmonious numerations, maintains his name number and suffers a life of controversy...even by Elizabethan court standards.

As I've offered several times, discovering the mathematic and scientific means of identifying WD Gann's "curve for the future" (page 77) is only the first, though still elusive, hurdle. Should that hurdle be leapt, there remains the ability to demonstrate how people, stocks, events react to that curve to create the diversity of outcome that otherwise appears to be randomness. And if that moment ever presents, then an understanding of Pythagorean numeration and its implications will become vastly important in my opinion.

Just another relic.

I said in the first paragraph, perhaps in yesterday's error there is a discovery greater than that which would otherwise be deserved. Yup, a dose of humility, always well deserved no doubt.

Jim Ross

According to John L. Gann Jr, (grandson) William Delbert Gann married his Texas school sweetheart, Rena May Smith, and in 1908 divorce her and married Sarah Hannify. Why, in the year of his greatest discovery, 1908, did he make this change in life direction? (1)

A riddle of 7's. WD Gann encodes into his 1927 "The Tunnel Thru the Air" acrostic and telestic messages and mathematic riddles and confirmations designed to make statements. The messages and statements confirm the simple narrative meaning many serious readers people might take from a simple narrative reading. The encoding confirms or disputes the subjective nature of narrative language....discovery and mathematics makes crystal clear the author's intent. The "simpler meaning" to which I refer will become evident in the final question posed in this essay.

But first, the groundwork.

7. A 7-year marriage ends in 1908, 7 is the given (not adopted) "name number" of William Gann and Francis Bacon according to Luo Clement rules and Pythagorean values. The number 7 will bind together the lives of four persons; WD Gann, Sarah Hannify, Sarah Pardee and Francis Bacon.

77. We find the number 77 encoded as a telestic message on cumulative descending line 3809 of WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air." And we find my name, suggesting to me there is something about 77 I am to discover:

This time I find "Ross" spelled twice. This must be something important.

I'm disappointed, out of the four line numbers (3809, 298, 282 and 11533) found in WD Gann's "Map of Time", there isn't a single 7 on that line to expand the telestic 77 to 777. Unless those four lines are to mean something:

11533+282-3809-298=7707 and, as Lord Bacon might,

we suppress the valueless 0 to arrive at 777

777. What a number, 777. Mathew 18:21 and Luke 17:4….how many times... sin against me? 7 and Jesus said 7X7. So, we have the one year of Jubilee following 7X7 years but we also have a new 7-year period of the Shmita. A total of 56 years which is exactly 1/3rd the MOT's 168-year span and 1/45th the Great Biblical Week of 2520 years. Immense theological significance in many religions. As we will see, WD Gann's adopted first name enumerates to 777 and 69. And a69 has a life of its own.

Lord Bacon found the number 777 immensely important as documented in great detail in Richard Allan Wagner's (a 32rd degree Masonic historian scholar) "The Lost Secret of William Shakespeare." As a theosophic late in his life, Lord Bacon encoded in "his" Shakespearean works (I am a Baconian) his belief he would return in a later life(s) to add to his already substantial life's work.

Books have been written about 7, 7 and 777. I do have a mystery.

What is to follow regarding WD Gann, Sarah Pardee, Sarah Hanify and Francis Bacon owes greatly to Richard Allan Wagner's previously cited work. Mr. Wagner, in my estimate, is a dedicated and gifted scholar of Lord Francis Bacon, William Shakespeare (to the extent possible since we know little of him), William Shaksper (the horse handler, money lender, grain merchant and supposed author), Sarah Pardee (Winchester) and Elizabethan England.

Mr. Wagner introduces four Elizabethan ciphers and the Pythagorean number table, all five of which Lord Bacon used to encode many of his writings. One needs to keep in mind, all five ciphers can be used to identify a person in encoded works by number. However, only the Pythagorean system of enumeration, as best I am aware, measures/declares a person's vibration; a very important distinction. And Luo Clement restricts the evaluation of the "name number" to only the given name.

Following is the full enumeration of four person's, with a fifth identity representing the adopted name of "WD" according to the five ciphers (2):

We will work left to right, from the first known occurrence to the final consequence. Lord Francis Bacon, according to Pythagorean value and Luo Clement rules had a "name number" of 34 reduced to 7 which you will see highlighted in blue at the far right. For a brief moment, look at "William Gann" on the far left and you will see that "William," the name given to WD Gann at birth, enumerates to a Pythagorean 34 reduced to 7...just as did the name of Francis Bacon. These two men have the same "name number" vibration according to Luo Clement. We have the single 7.

Next column to the left of Francis Bacon; Sarah Pardee. The wife of William Wirt Winchester ("WWW" and, where W is 5 in Pythagorean enumeration, we have a notable 5-5-5) and heir of the Winchester Rifle fortune, Sarah Pardee was a student and historian of Lord Bacon, a Mason student and, arguably by Mr. Wagner, may have been a French Mason (then permitted in France). She used her great fortune to build the mystical Winchester Mansion in San Jose CA which encoded in its odd architecture the numerology she had discovered through her study of Lord Bacon, Rosicrucian Order, Masonry.... Many features of that architecture that symbolized the number 7, 77, and 777. You will see in the totals of all five ciphers of her name given at birth, "Sarah," are 34 highlighted in yellow and reduced to 7, the later highlighted in red. Isolating just her Pythagorean element, her name number was 20 highlighted in green reduced to 2.

Not surprisingly, the Pythagorean name numbers of Sarah Hannify and Sarah Pardee are the same; 20 highlighted in green and the reduction to 2. Duh, "Sarah" evaluates to "Sarah." The ladies have the same "vibration." As well, the totals of the five ciphers are the same; 34 highlighted in yellow and 7 in red. There we find the first occurrence of "77." The combined, reduced given name number of Sarah and surname of Hannify are 7 and 7, highlighted in red. We have the double 7 or 77.

[It should be noted that historians indicate the dates of birth of both women are unknown. We cannot evaluate their respective birth numbers.]

Now it gets really interesting with the next column left; WD Gann's adopted first name or "WD." For the reasons cited in the previous essay and one additionally, Mr. Gann changed his name from William to WD. With that change, Mr. Gann moved from an inharmonious birth and name number of 6-7 to a harmonious one of 6-9. Alas, if only Lord Bacon had changed his unfortunately inharmonious birth and name number relationship of 4-7.

But the greater benefit was this; it gave us 7, 77, 777, 69, and 999. Under the "WD Gann adopted" column you see the 7's highlighted which are the simple, reverse and short Elizabethan ciphers yielding 7-7-7 for the adopted given name "WD." We now have the triple 7 or 777.

Horizontally next to the red 777 you have 6-9 in brown which is, as discussed in more detail in the previous essay, the greatly notable page 69 of TTTTA, the street address of Robert Gordon, the birth date (6-9-1906) of Robert Gordon... And finally you have 9-9-9 shown vertically highlighted in brown. Arguably an immensely important number it is Mr. Gann's birth date inverted and flipped, 6-6-6 (June 6, 1878) becomes 9-9-9. Personally, it is the date of the worst day in my life or in the life of any parent.

*******

It's impossible to fully compare Pythagorean values of Rena Mae Smith to Sarah Hannify without each person's birth date or to determine, from that perspective, which person might have had the more harmonious relationship with WD Gann. I did evaluate Rena Mae Smith's numbers; her Pythagorean number is 20 reduced to 2, exactly the same as that of Sarah Hannify. So that wasn't a problem. All the other numbers are different and we don't know the birth number.

Could the numbers be the cause of the divorce and re marriage at the 7-year mark? Or are the numbers simply reflective of the people involved. Or are the numbers and the events aspects of the same reality; a reality that plays out in parallel.

So to answer the question the title of this essay poses, I can't.

What I do know is the name change from William to WD and the re-marriage to Sarah created an incredible group of numbers and of numeric synchronicities; it created a line that began with Lord Francis Bacon and ended at, or perhaps continues, through WD Gann.

A lot of numbers, the Noxious Ones will say, without anything more than a building of synchronicity. Why would I think the numbers true? Perhaps, more numbers?

Five or 5-5-5, the number in between the other single digit numbers; 4 above, 4 below. Have you seen 555 in this essay? Yup. Is there a Bible verse 55:5, it would be a big number for a Bible verse chapter and paragraph? Yup.

Maybe the meaning is simply this; when you take four people, evaluate their five separate names and add them together, what's the likelihood the answer will be fives? After combing through the above spreadsheets for tens of hours, I believe it is correct. I 'can't not' worry but they're the numbers... my best effort. When I wind up with all 5s, if indicates to me, it is correct. But that's me.

One final thought, one final number. Lord Francis Bacon died in 1626 and WD Gann was born in 1878; 252 years apart. As recounted at length in Richard Wagner's book and on this blog, Dr. John Dee was a great Elizabe than intellect among many great intellects of the 15th and 16th centuries and his greatest of students was Lord Francis Bacon.

Question for you; what was John Dee's "philosopher stone number," the number behind the Monas Heirglyphica?

Nah,

Jim Ross

PS: I continue to wonder about the identity of the old schoolmate in Texas to whom TTTTA was co-dedicated.

(1) A dependable researcher of WD Gann has informed me that WD and Rena did marry in 1901 but that neither the divorce nor re marriage occur in 1908.

(2) In addition, that researcher indicates Sarah was a very early and very infrequently used name of WD Gann's second wife. Which brings the question whether it is appropriate to use the supposed birth given name of Sarah or the apparently adopted name of Sadie. For Pythagorean purposes, the proper name to use is Sadie. However, both Sadie and Sarah evaluate according to the Pythagorean table to 20 reduced to 2. This must be addressed in a later essay. The four Elizabethan ciphers change the spreadsheet and destroy the '555' grand result.

In the previous two essays I've left the lingering question posed by the number of years between the death of Lord Francis Bacon and the birth of WD Gann being 252 years. Dr. John Dee's 'philosopher stone number' as derived from the Monas Heirroglyphica is 252 and John Dee was Lord Bacon's tutor and, aside from his student, considered by many the greatest intellectual in several centuries of great minds. And Mr. Gann ties is all together by encoding John Dee's name in his "The Tunnel Thru the Air" 45 times with an unmistakable 46th time as "007" the code identification of John Dee with his client, Queen Elizabeth I. .....I'll leave the lingering question to your imagination.

I am so unprepared for this work and I apologize to all those experts of the Bible, Elizabethan history, physics and geometry, Pythagorean vibration, geometry and diatonic... In every field, I am the least of persons who should be going to these places and I make so many errors. Yet here I am and I do my best to figure things out. Please indulge my ignorance and "read to consider."

One of the errors that I've made is in Sarah/Sadie Hannify's name as I have enumerated it in the previous essay. As an error, I consider it yet to be an opportunity for an additional insight. Isn't that the nature of learning? I'll leave it at that for the moment.

Recall I indicated in the the previous essay there were many numbers on that great spreadsheet that would be noteworthy but on which I would not comment at the moment? ...that essay already too lengthy. As then, this essay will only touch on a couple numbers. So, drill down on numbers of only WD Gann and Francis Bacon:

So very many observations to make but I'll confine myself to simple colors above.

Dark green. The grand total of the four cipher and Pythagorean value of the names Francis Bacon and WD Gann are 17, a number of immense importance. Keep that number in mind along with its reduction to the number 8.

Bold green. Under WD Gann, the numbers 9 and 18 represent the given and surnames with the Francis Bacon counterparts of 34 and 17. 9 divided by 18 is the inverse, the reciprocal, the ratio that makes whole the Francis Bacon number of 34 and 17. Think about it. WD Gann makes the ratio of Francis Bacon the monad, unity, all things....the number 1. WD Gann, the completion of Lord Francis Bacon, in the latter's work, figuratively and, perhaps, spiritually.

Red. Under WD Gann, 7-7-7 or Mathew 18:22 or Luke 17:5 (note Luke 17:5 adds to 22 which is the same 22 as found in Mathew 18:22, a code perhaps) a permutation of which gives you the 49 and 49 in red under the Francis Bacon name. 7, the number of the years in the full Shmita cycle and 49, that number extrapolated and the base period of Jubilee. I am instructed by a commenter, George, that there are 49 words in the first paragraph of TTTTA...where we find the birth of Robert Gordon. He's right because I checked (as should anyone of my work).

Light blue. Under WD Gann, the number 9 and under Francis Bacon, 6 or 9-6. Arranged chronologically (Bacon came before Gann), you have the more appropriate number 6-9. And what was Robert Gordon's "number" according to Luo Clement's methods? Robert's name is 33 (which you see in Bacon's surname simple cipher) reduced to 6 and his birth number is the 9th day of the month or 6-9. When did WD Gann pass? June 18, 1955 or the month of June 18 reduced, 6-9.

As a side, 9-6 or 6-9 is the additive and multiplicative result of the Book of Jonah(s) appearing on...page 69 of TTTTA. That is 3+3=6 and 3*3=9.

Dark blue. WD Gann's surname enumeration of 4 and Francis Bacon's similar enumeration of 7 or 47, the 47th problem of Euclid. If you don't know the nature thereof, you're where I was two years ago with many things of wonder to experience if you chose to undertake a similar experience.

Light blue / dark blue. Under WD Gann, 9-4 and under Francis Bacon, 6-7. 94 / 67 = 1.403, near the hypotenuse of the 1X1 square or sqrt(2) or 1.414. Psalm 67, (first reduction being 13), 111 words in 21 lines. And we find the simple cipher of Francis of 67 added to the simple cipher of Gann gives you 111. Gann, again the completion of Francis.

Psalm 94 (first reduction being 13), 46 lines long or the number of John Dee's name appearance in TTTTA, 284 words by MS Word count or divided by the reduction of 21 lines in Psalm 94 or 284/3=94.66667.

Purple. Horizontally, 69 under Gann reducing to 6 and 9 under Bacon, the two concatenated being 67 already discussed. Vertically, 999 under Gann and 786 under or 1.653 near an early iteration of Phi, namely the 9th item of the Fibonacci sequence divided by the 8th item or 21 / 13 = 1.271 squared or 1.615.

Tan. 13, the lonely total of WD Gann's name according to the four Elizabethan ciphers and the Pythagorean enumeration. [Note, the was an error in the Rosicrucian total that gave the number 13 and that has been changed on the spreadsheet and the incorrect comparison to the total of WD Gann's 13 has been removed.]

13, the reduction of both Psalms 94 and 67. Again, the light blue and the dark blue above comprising each man's total for given and surnames; 9 and 4 or 94 for WD Gann adding to 13 and 6 and 7 for Francis Bacon or 67 adding to 13. 13 must be an important number.

But still a lonely number, the number 13. The 8th number of the Fibonacci sequence:

Where do we get the number 8 other than to acknowledge 13 is the 8th number of the sequence and create a most important iteration of Phi or 1.625?

Look to the two lowermost numbers on the above spreadsheet and numbers already discussed; both the total enumeration of WD Gann and Francis Bacon sum to 17, the reduction of which is 8.

Green and Tan. WD Gann, the numeric completion of Francis Bacon if not more, Masonry and Rosicrucian forming a very mystical iteration of Phi 13 / 8. Why so mystical? It is the only iteration that can exist where the divisor is also the number of the place in the sequence where the quotient exists. The quotient is 13 which is the 8th item in the Fibonacci sequence.

Richard Wagner characterizes this number, 13/8 or 1.625 in the context of his examination of Sarah Pardee Winchester's symbolic 8 petaled daisy (which does not exist in nature). From page 255 of his freely available book, "The Lost Secret of William Shakespeare:"

*******

There are phrases that contain elegance that we recognize but do not understand. Its like Emerson's quotation of Swedenborg on the innate ability of the honest man to discern truth from otherwise without knowing the complete nature of truth; its instinctual. I can't remember the essay, perhaps Emerson's "Intellect," but the point is, that last sentence of above has some meaning I know others know and understand. I can only appreciate it for what knowledge I think it possesses.

Here are the questions I have about my own essay and ones I'd propose to any reader:

Could the above spreadsheet of number's been devised in such a weave of reciprocal synchronicity between and among themselves absent order, as opposed to randomness, of all things?

Could the above be devised absent the continuity of all things; the "lingering question?"

Does the Jacbob Cats' engraving of John Dee passing the lantern to Lord Francis Bacon represent that passage of light to the successor or the passing of the light from Lord Francis Bacon to WD Gann? (1)

These are not among the questions that, any longer, will keep me up at night.

(1) The reader might note, as previously pointed out, John Dee appears encoded in TTTTA 46 times, 45 as "Dee" and once as "007". And "light" is the 46th word appearing in the KJV translation of the Bible.

In the previous essay I presented the calculations of the individual and aggregated "numbers" of WD Gann and Francis Bacon according to four Elizabethan ciphers believed to have been used extensively by William Shakespeare (a pen name of Francis Bacon according to Richard Allan Wanger) and the Pythagorean cipher according to Luo Clement's (a pen name of WD Gann, IMO) table appearing in "The Ancient Science of Numbers." As an aside, I provided the same numbers according to the five ciphers. The numbers of Mr. Gann and Lord Bacon are correct based on my many iterations of checking on the below spreadsheet:

As you can see, I have added Dr. John Dee, correspondent of Queen Elizabeth I (believed by many to be the biologic mother of Lord Francis Bacon), magician, alchemist, mathematician, astronomer of Queen Elizabeth's court, private tutor and mentor of Lord Bacon, and a person notably encoded into the acrostic and telestic messages of WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air"exactly 46 times (45 times as "Dee" and 1 times as "007"). Obviously, Dr. John Dee was of importance to WD Gann and Lord Francis Bacon.

The color coding of the above spreadsheet is explained in the immediately preceding essay. John Dee does not have substantial color coding suggesting there is something very different in his relation to those two men that is the relation between those two men. I'm sure we can find some apparent similarity in numbers of all three (and I have) but not nearly as emphatic as the colored relationships. There is, however, one item of importance that will tie Dr. Dee to his apparent students.

First though, consider, WD Gann is, arguably, the continuation of Lord Francis Bacon according to the green spreadsheet numbers. WD Gann is 9 / 18 = .5 and Lord Bacon is 34 / 17 = 2....together they are .5 X 2 = 1. Together, they are unity. Without searching Richard Allan Wagner's brilliant book "The Lost Secret of William Shakespeare" I recall Lord Bacon coding into Shakespeare's works his intent to return to the earthly plane to complete his work. Use your imagination. WD Gann was born one interval of John Dee's "philosopher stone number" or "252" years, or the "Monas Heiroglyphica number," from the year Lord Bacon passed; 1626 + 252 = 1878.

So what, then, is notable about John Dee's numbers in relation to the others and to which I allude? The dark green numbers of John Dee are the same Pythagorean cipher calculation of given and surname as were used to compute WD Gann as "the completion" of Lord Bacon in the foregoing paragraph. What relation might they hold? Lord Bacon was, by those light green numbers, "2". John Dee is 20 / 14 = 1.42857 or, within 2/100ths of the square root of 2. If you varied either the numerator or denominator by 1, you cannot get closer to the square root of two. If you square John Dee's ratio of given and surname, you get 2, that being the same ratio as that of Lord Bacon. And from that mathematic reality, I symbolically offer:

WD Gann is the completion of Lord Francis Bacon

who is the exponential evolution of Dr. John Dee

As demonstrated, it is mathematically true according to Pythagorean vibration. Almost Shakespearean in poetic thought.

Now for the major errors in my calculations of Mason and Rosicrucian. There were so many errors in the previous essay's enumeration of those names its useless to recount them. Here are the recalculations along with additional notables:

Parsing entity names as opposed to person's names is unsatisfying. For example, do we say Mason, Freemason or the plural versus plural of either? Similarly with the other names. So, I present them for interest only for the time being and hope that the errors will weed themselves out over time and before I decide I want to figure out how I might evaluate them.

Is this possible in our world of randomness and the Gaussian probability we are taught, almost as if a religion?

WD Gann's encoded in "The Tunnel Thru the Air" the name of the director of the movie "Knowing,"Ryne Douglas Pearson. I've written extensively about the movie so I'll provide the very short version.

"Knowing" is an apocalypse film staring Nicolas Cage as Professor John Koestler, an MIT astrophysicist. He discovers, on a paper written 50 years prior which was sealed in a time capsule, numbers that predict the major disasters over the 50 years it was sealed plus 3 more disasters yet to occur. Following the background burying of the time capsule in 1959, the movie moves forward to its opening on October 13, 2009. For six days, Professor Koestler gradually realizes the meaning of the numbers as the three events take place, with the final event occurring on October 19. [As an aside, I have written about the date, October 19, 2016, even before having seen the movie, and will again very soon.]

Prof Koestler discovers the map by writing 10 numbers off the paper on a blackboard then subdividing them with slashes that ultimately reveals 9/11/01 2996. Searching the Internet he finds a tribute to the 2996 who died on 9/11/01.

And that is exactly how I verified the WD Gann "Map of Time" which I'd been, for many weeks/months, constructing out of the vertically enumerated lines of TTTTA. Here's a link to the essay I wrote on exactly September 11, 2015 after having watched "Knowing" on Netflix, that same day:

Cumulative line number 2693 of TTTTA from the first line of the cover plus chapter line number 283 gives you 2996. And 2996 persons died in the 9/11/01 attacks.

There are many many more "synchronicities" in the movie that I have identified but will leave it to you to read those many essays. Obviously, one would think the movie was guided by Mason or Rosicrucian craftsmen. For example, the home of Professor Koestler, a very old Elizabethan architecture house in the process of renovation, was constructed from scratch. Old houses in Boston are a dime a dozen, and to rent one rather than building one to make it look old...a major and otherwise unnecessary expense (the movie was shot mainly in Australia but with scenes in Boston where it supposedly occurs). I'd offer the symmetry of the house, its ornateness and features could only be created from scratch and that was important to the author. But that's an opinion.

Let's add to the mystique with the four license plates. The characters of the movie drive four cars as the movie progresses. Prof Koestler is first seen driving a truck, then four anonymous characters (either aliens or angels depending on you preference) drive an old Lincoln. Diana drives her car third but, in a panic, she commanders an SUV in which she dies in an accident. With great pain, I did the freeze frame thing, stopping the move, many many times to isolate and read the license plate numbers:

The first license plate, that of John's truck, was a pure number...there weren't any letters. The next license plate included a "Y" so the Pythagorean value of 7 was substituted. Then two letters in each of the last two license plates. Once the substitutions are made, two levels of number reduction might be made.

Long ago, the numbers highlighted in red indicated to me something involving the license plates was up. The first two vehicles reduce to 37, the smallest angle of the Pythagorean 3-4-5 triangle. As well, the numbers are important symbols of Mason and Rosicrucian orders. Those numbers further reduce to 10 and then 1, the "all."

Looking at three pairs of the four unreduced numbers, the three unique notable sets of pairs produce ratios among themselves. First, in green highlight the identified pairs produce a ratio of 1.6229 which is a very near approximation of the 8th iteration of Phi according to the Fibonacci sequence; the 9th Fibonacci number or 13 divided by the 8th or 13 / 8 = 1.625. Only 4 / 1000ths off.

Second in yellow highlight you see a second set of pair plate numbers give you 1.4436, passably near the value of the hypotenuse of the 1X1 square or the square root of 2 or 1.414. Off by less than 3 / 100ths.

And finally in blue, the last set of paired plate numbers give you 2.5940, again, a near approximation of 1.618^2 or 2.618. Off by less than 3 / 100ths.

Of course, the enshrinement of these numbers is hardly surprising if one starts with the presumption that the author and script team that developed the movie were intent on hiding important knowledge in it. There is deep numeric, visual and narrative meaning in many places in this movie. Surely, living persons might have gone this deep in encoding a movie to showcase Phi and sqrt(2) for the "initiated" audience.

All of which still doesn't answer how, 82 years previous thereto (the movie was released in 2009 and WD Gann published TTTTA in 1927), the author's name was encoded into TTTTA. Or how it was predicted the story line of "Knowing," the discovery of the "Knowing Map of Time," would become the key to verifying the existence of the "WD Gann Map of Time."

When reading WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air" I'm always apprehensive when I see a specific date. I'm particularly interested when, accompanying a date I see Mr. Gann's name encoded. Compound that interest twice again when I see the name of John Dee and my name. All spelled with letters that are contiguous (touching at least at a corner).

Beginning on page 60 we have all those things. In yellow we have Ezekiel 45:25 and the 15th day of the seventh month. As if to confirm, Robert thinks this date is July 15, 1932 and we see in the right margin, also highlighted in yellow, the date July 15, 2003.

And to further emphasize the importance of the section, we have "dgann,""dee" and "ross" in red, blue and green highlight, respectively.

What might be the importance seemingly encoded so emphatically? Whatever it is, it might have meaning for tomorrow, July 15, 2016. So I explored.

My reflex was to search "July 15, 1932" or 5 years after TTTTA was published. Like shooting fish in a barrel when we're "looking back." The great July 15, 1932 speech, or should we say the infamous speech, of Adolph Hitler and referred to as his "Appeal to the Nation." Hitler's "Appeal to the Nation" followed the "night of the long knives," a month-long period in which the Nazi party carried out a series of political executions of the paramilitary brownshirts to consolidate Nazi and Hitler political power. The "Appeal" sought the unity of national identity and socialist ideology into an indomitable force:

So, mystery solved? Mr. Gann was predicting the rise of the then greatest war machine in history, leading to the "Great War in the Air." It would seem so when you consider that bracketing the yellow highlighted narrative above you will find the letters "h-i-t-l-e-r" spelled with acrostic and telestic letters highlighted in light purple. "Hitler," perfectly bracketing Ezekiel 45:25 and Robert's declaration that the Bible was meaning July 15, 1932.

Yes, somewhat solved. A prediction that came true. Fish in a barrel.

Somewhat solved? Well, there's a lot of prophetic scripture after that one paragraph drawing attention to Adolph Hitler's 1932 speech. I've just picked off the easy stuff we can see in 20/20 hindsight. Is there a second prediction(s) of deeper meaning?

On the eve of July 15, 2016, it may well be so there is a second meaning or meanings. Never shrinking from the opportunity to be wrong, I'll give a shot at that second meaning...maybe even two shots.

First suggestion, repeating from above Ezekiel 46:17 on page 60:

Will we be treated to an appeal to national unity tomorrow similar to the great Nazi "Appeal." Will it be the avowed socialist, Bernie Sanders, the pocket socialists Hillary Clinton or Barrack Obama or might there be an appeal for unity by the volatile Donald Trump? I tend to think the former rather than the latter but I'm biased. Regardless, we are amidst the early stages of paramilitary activity with the recent sniper slayings of police officers. And the stage is set for a great "political revolution" or "transformation" demanded by the first of the three personalities aforementioned; a populist revolt by the 'have nots' against the 'haves.' Is it substantially different at this juncture in 2016 than in 1932?

Will we "look back" a decade from tomorrow and say, July 15, 2016 was the moment of realization that something had happened? An imaginary line when we know the scales had tipped from one state of national being to another.

Ezekiel 46:17 repeated for emphasis above, why did Mr. Gann present it in the first place. That the prince had given us "liberty" to be returned to the prince. That our liberty, much as occurred in 1932, will be diminished by the rise of socialism in its need to elevate the common good above the freedom and liberty of the individual. As Ayn Rand put it (from recollection), "Socialism is slavery to the common good."

Second suggestion. There's far too much "water" and cleansing of the land going on in Ezekiel 47 and 48 scripture citations appearing above; too much imagery of increasing, impassable waters originating from the west stretching to the deserts of the east. That imagery drives me think of the many times I have read into TTTTA the ultimate seismic "war" in which the Pacific Coast is decimated; the first enemy campaign.

No, I don't read into TTTTA "the really big one" hitting tomorrow, July 15. I'm on alert, however, for the harbinger which would be the equivalent of the Allied Enemies' attacks on a line of cities stretching from Brownsville to El Paso (page 285 of TTTTA). A seismic event tomorrow in the southwest would be 131 days from a key date I have been watching, namely October 19, 2016 and 131 days is but one off from some key timing that I have discovered and which will be discussed in a future essay.

From the date Robert Gordon attached to Ezekiel 45:25 or July 15, 1932 we have exactly 84 years. That is half the WD Gann "Map of Time" cycle of 168 years and 1/30th of the Biblical Great Week of 2520 years. And as I've pointed out so often, we have Mr. Gann's lamentation on page 84:

Mr. Gann predicted, as I've proven to my satisfaction and offered above, the "bright line" date of July 15, 1932 as monumenting the rise of Nazi Germany. Will tomorrow give us any insight into similar events that may occur in the United States in this 240th year of this free nation?

Mr. Gann's gravestone measure 30X30X8 giving a key number of 240. WD and Sadie Gann lived a combined 130 years. The year of founding in 1776 plus 240 years is this year. The year of the 1906 plus 110 years (240 minus 130) is this year. The dedication of the Stature of Liberty in 1886 plus 130 years is this year.

From the second largest earthquake that occurred in Wasco CA and in the lower 48 states that occurred on February 23, 2016 to October 19, 2016 is 239 days. From the largest earthquake that occurred in Borrego Springs CA (outside Los Angeles) on June 10, 2016, October 19, 2016 is 131 days.

I offer one last lamentation of Mr. Gann on page 130 invoking Rabbi Cahn's thesis explained in "The Harbinger:"

Interpretation of scripture. I'm light years out of my comfort zone.
