2016, part 2 of 5 - An inventory of concepts and methods

$

In part 1 of this series I prospectively took credit for the delusional presentation of a characterization of the year 2016, a year defined by the mid point of the calendar year; the summer solstice.  The year June 21, 2015 to June 20, 2016 will, as presented, include a tragic earthquake, great national and social disintegration and war.  In studying the past and projecting its repetition through methods WD Gann encoded into "The Tunnel Thru the Air" and other mechanisms (the WD Gann Memorial Triangle or GMT, the WD Gann Gravestone Geometry or GGG, the WD Gann Map of Time or MOT, "The Magic Word" and other materials), an ancillary result is the researcher (me) is becomes part of the story.  The researcher's perspective is not independent of the result; the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. As we study a phenomenon (velocity of an object), our act of study changes the rule of measurement and, thus, the measure cannot be accurate.  In my case, simply studying what happened in 1848 for projection to 2016 creates in me a bias which is reactionary to the character of those things that happened in 1848.  And my projection is thereby so biased.

Mr. Gann presents two cameo appearances of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in TTTTA.  I have yet to find a character or event in TTTTA that is a 'throwaway.' Of course, I haven't investigated a fraction of what I believe is worthy; I've been at this level of research for only a year or so.  The references to Mr. Doyle are anything but a throwaway.  His fictional character, Sherlock Holmes, is the ideal researcher; he is a repository ("attic") of relevant information, he models of crime scenarios, he is the discerner of the relevant data for each case, and he is the synthesizer of the likely outcomes.  Of course, we all recognize that when we eliminate the possible alternatives that which is left is the only possible outcome; however implausible that might otherwise seem.  Sherlock Holmes refers to his art as the "science of deduction" and he was the only person in civilization that employed that science.  He was the "court of last resort" for any person seeking an answer.  He is what I am not; the unbiased researcher and, from time to time, I have to step back and review where I am.  Any rendition of Sherlock Holmes other than the original work is fiction and hazardous.  Doyle's Sherlock Holmes is the definition of the "science of deduction."

Part 1 of this series set forth the character of 2016 which I will modify having realized some inevitable errors.  Oh, not much of a modification, but I haven't any doubt it will be modified still more as time corrects my errors.  Errors are expected and tolerable.  Sherlock would say, "It is not the gravity of the crime, it is the facts and the process of deduction that determines the attractiveness of the case." Frequently, the most grave cases are the least interesting and the most minor cases present the greatest challenge.

We are at a time and place that make the crime presently occurring very grave.  I believe that is the reason Mr. Gann warned us of the "remarkable events" that would occur following the election of the 266th Pope (page 82 of TTTTA).  It is a warning to our generation as Pope Francis, widely recognized as the 266th Pope, was elected in 2013.

So what are the processes of deduction that have been offered to infer the future?

History repeats.  This is more a principle.  We could call it a process.  I woke up yesterday morning when the sun came up so the process predicts that'll happen again today.  But that doesn't happen every day the same way so the process is flawed.  I prefer to think of this great Biblical concept as the missing link in the physics of the future or the physics of four dimensions or the physics of special and general relativity.

From the perspective of a finite mathematician (a CPA), physics seems obsessed with the large and the small.  One of the earliest proofs of Einstein relativity were Sir Arthur Eddington's study of light bending around the Sun during a lunar eclipse; a study of the smallest refraction of what was considered the ultimate measurement.  A milestone proof was achieved as the result of Einstein's competition with David Hilbert in deriving the equations that modeled the already outlined general relativity.  Einstein and Hilbert arrived at the same set of equations with Einstein having unveiled his thesis only days before that of Hilbert's was ready.  And what was the proof of their solution?  That mystery of a 44 second error in 100 years of Mercury's orbital pattern was solved.  An immensely large period and distance was perfectly predicted; the immensely large and the incredibly small.

Physics is obsessed of when and where we get there in a scenario that is entirely irrelevant to our limited lifespan.  What is the 'relativity' in the ordinary person's life in predicting how long and what astrophysical calculations must be made to get us from here to Vega?

What would be relative is if the physics of the fourth dimension could predict we would have an auto accident tomorrow morning.  Physics hasn't any objective of predicting mundane future; it only seeks to predict the path of the quark or the effect of gravity of mass near the sun on the 44 second warping of Mercury's orbit.

So, the first principle, method or assumption will be that history repeats.

The physics of the fourth dimension.  Einstein proposed special relativity in 1905 and general relativity in 1916.  In my opinion, WD Gann was using special relativity to predict the stock market in 1908....and proved it in the "Ticker Interview." There isn't any other accounting for the record of stock winners in the month of trades or the specificity of time and price associated with the 1909 wheat call, both recounted in the "Ticker Interview." Did Albert Einstein predict even general outline of when the Great Depression would begin or end?  WD Gan did on page 82/83 of TTTTA.  Or WWI or WWII?  WD Gann predicted the latter, again on page 82/83.  And WDG predicted far more than general outlines of the future if you will re read the 6th and 7th Prophecies documented on this blog.

Many astrologers will claim Mr. Gann did these things with astrology and Mr. Gann was a master astrologer.  I haven't an issue with the ability of astrology to make predictions.  I have not, in the last 45 years of varying exposure to stock market methods found an astrologer who has a record with any promise, mush less proof, they their methods could predict time and price as Mr. Gann did in that wheat prediction....  'If it does not touch $1.20 by the close of the market [that day] it will prove that there is something wrong with my whole method of calculation." Astrology, to the extent of the expertness of the astrologer, works to a non granular extent because astronomy is driven by the same fourth dimensional natural laws as are the stock market.  Its rigorous correlation analysis.  Its the light of truth reflection on the wall of the cave....but not the actual truth.  Failing to understand the fourth dimensional physics, I would be the better off to understand astrology.  I'm twice the loser because I understand neither so please, astrologers, do not take my criticism of astrology as an affront.  I'm simply down another path not inconsistent with the one which you have taken.


When listing physics as a method, like "history repeats," there's a qualification.  Again, I can't "do it." I can intuit it having been done by Mr. Gann...but I can't do it.  We hear his words, that the stock market is proof of the working out of the fourth dimension, that all there is in the universe are geometric points of force (Faraday).  I list physics only because would be my ideal end game.  That's where I want to be when this is all said and done.  Unfortunately, I may never get there.  I may be the one to whom Mr. Gann gave milk for my (our) being unable to accept meat.  

The WD Gann Memorial Triangle.  The GMT, comprised of three physical points in space (the Statue of Liberty, Mr. Gann's gravestone, and the fictional location of the 110-story Mammouth Building at 42nd and Broadway) and three points in time (associated with those forgoing three physical points), is a model that predicts a fourth point in 'spacetime.' That fourth point in spacetime is the World Trade Center in 2001.  It is the 6th Prophecy that I have documented.  

These same properties of the GMT will be used to demonstrate that Mr. Gann developed the GMT to provide those of us unable to understand his level of fourth dimensional physics, to, nevertheless, understand the general outline of the future.  As a tangible result of the study of the GMT, there will be clear implication of the nature of the year 2016 (again, 2016 stretches from mid 2015 to mid 2016).

The WD Gann Map of Time.  The MOT is created from the 15340 lines comprising TTTTA (including line spacing and vacant pages) doubled and redoubled (according to page 45 of TTTTA) to create the number of days in a 168 year period (15340 days X 2 X 2 divided by 365.242 days per year).  That 168-year period is 1/15th of the Biblical "Great Year." 

The 168-year period can be divided into at least two repeating periods of 84 years with a "right beginning" of the middle of the year on or near the last battle of TTTTA; the July 4, 1932 Battles of New York and Washington.  From this date moving forward and up on the MOT you arrive at 2016 and moving back and up on the MOT you arrive at 1848.

The historical events of the left side of the MOT are mirrored on the right.  Based on the end of WWI by the Treaty of Versailles, the end of WWII can be predicted.  Based on the tactical surprise attacks waged by Captain Grierson on Confederate targets, history was repeated in 2001 with the surprise attacks on the WTC and Pentagon.

The MOT is a heuristic model for those of us unable to tolerate the meat of physics to sense the repetition of history.  Like the GMT we cannot 'see' the granularity of the actual methods I believe Mr. Gann employed.  But, by study of 1848, we will 'see' in 1848 the outline of what will occur in 2016.

The WD Gann Gravestone Geometry.  Like the physics of the fourth dimension, I am not able to understand how the GGG is the model of time that might project the future with finer granularity than the GMT.  I list it here because I believe it to be a "clock" of sorts that would perform that function and make predictions that are more specific than the MOT.  It is a heuristic for those who cannot understand physics.  Perhaps by keeping it on the forefront of this list it will become understood.

Clues.  To lead us down the road of our investigation, Mr. Gann left objectives and clues;  clues in the acrostic and telestic encoding of TTTTA, clues in the names of his characters (Dr. Descartes for example), clues in the events (the fictional battle), clues in the dates and durations (July 4, 1932 plus 69 years and 69 days to arrive at the 6th Prophecy of 9/11), clues in the simple wording (the 110-story Mammouth Building)....  The clues will lead us to a characterization of the year 2016, but, more importantly, the clues will lead us to the methods that will make understanding the future possible.

* * * * *

I state that last sentence seemingly as a fact.  It is, rather, what I 'know' today according to what I believe I have understood from Mr. Gann's work.  A year from now I'll either be substantially right or wrong.  But that doesn't mean Mr. Gann was wrong.  It means my interpretation of his work was wrong.  I won't be discouraged to the extent of my errors.  Sherlock was right and he was wrong, and he was frustrated.  But being right or wrong wasn't the important thing.

It was the method.  Making the method better.  Doyle's "science of deduction."

I'd planned on making this essay about the exact information that led me to provide the prediction of the nature of 2016 in part 1.  I found myself unable to explain those predictions without first this summary of all those methods I have stumbled into finding in many imperfect essays presented in the this blog.  I hope this inventory of concepts and methods will be the bridge between the work that I've done and the product of that work undertaken in the next essay.

Philo, Bacon, Dee, Sherlock and WD Gann

So what's the thread?  Some descriptions of the participants first.

Philo of Alexandria.  You won't find "Philo" much less, "Philo of Alexandria" in "The Tunnel Thru the Air." Wait, yes you will.  You will find the letters 'philo' in the word 'philosopher (y)' some 7 times.  Do a word count of "philo" in TTTTA.

Philo, a first century philosopher was a student of the works of Pythagoras and Plato.  He developed a system of writing and teaching that relied on what one site refers to as Philo's enigmas (see HERE).   Enigmas contrasted from allegory.  The latter, I am informed, relies upon the reader's interpretation where the former is so constructed to force the reader to understand the authors meaning.

Among the rules of Philo's enigma (according to the above link) you will find such devices as number 12 from the above link; any peculiarity of a phrase.  Perhaps the misspelling of the word "Mammouth" to bring attention to the 110-structure so reminiscent of the ill fated World Trade Center?  Or (1), the repetition of a phrase....perhaps the repetition of Mathew 7:7 (ask, seek, knock) three times in TTTTA, each time less formally. Or the many repetitions of the adaption of Mathew 9:29 in Marie's mysterious letter of disappearance; "...according to your faith be I unto you."

I would submit the rule of greatest importance and one that is inversely proportionate to its use is that the greatest concepts are not stated.  They are taught by their absence and the toil that must be undertaken to uncover their meaning.

You won't find "philo" in TTTTA, but that doesn't mean his work was employed therein.  If you work with the rules of enigma in the above link, you'll find them used in TTTTA.  But the greatest truths, in my opinion, will be the ones that you must deduce.  And it won't be easy; an allegory is easy to understand but the understanding you receive might not be the one the author intends.  The enigma is difficult to discover, the details difficult to evaluate and qualify, but the result is far closer to the intent of the author.  At least, that is how I understand the nature of the methods of Philo.

Lord Francis Bacon, mentioned once in the plain wording of TTTTA in the second paragraph of Chapter XXII on page 126, declares, while holding a Bible up, "There God speaks."  The inversely proportionate meaning one might infer from Philo;   Lord Francis Bacon is very important to Mr. Gann and the meaning of TTTTA.

Consider, Lord Bacon was a master cryptographer for his day (1561-1626).  Well, do we find TTTTA filled with acrostic and telestic encoding?  Indeed.  Those who partake only of milk might contest that but the occurrence of meaningful 6 letter words spelled in acrostics and telestics defies Eddington's "army of monkeys."

Lord Bacon was a spiritualist.

I'll let the noteworthy Lord Francis Bacon sit for the moment.

John Dee, the mathematician, alchemist, scholar, geometer, astrologer, magician of the court of Queen Elizabeth I.  Dee was reputed to have owned more than 4,000 volumes in his personal library at a time when Cambridge library contained less than 400. He was also a great cryptographer and communicated with QE I in code.  His signature in encrypted messages to QE I was "007." You will not find John Dee in the plain narrative of TTTTA once.  Not once.  But you find him 45 times (interesting, 45) in the telestic encoding.  I'll give you the first, last and middle or 23rd occurrence:

There you have it.  "Dee" is spelled 44 times and "007" is spelled once.  And it so happens "007" is the exact midpoint of the those 45 items.  And if you look at the line number, it is cumulative line number 7579 out of 15340 lines.  Nearly exactly the midpoint of TTTTA in lines.  I expect it is the exact midpoint but the above is an early count of the lines in the book.  I expect Mr. Gann is correct and Jim is not correct so I'm not all that hot on fixing what I know is my error when I have other things to do.

John Dee was very important.  Jim Egan, curator of the Newport Tower in Newport RI has researched and written extensively on John Dee (HERE).  Aside from the symbolism of Dee's work, Mr. Egan derives what he calls Dee's "philosopher stone number,"the number 252.  Remember that number.

As an aside I have named the number 432, WD Gann's philosopher stone number, because there are 432 pages in TTTTA including the covers and blank pages.  When we look at those two numbers as a ratio of 432 / 252 we can reduce it to 12 / 7; two of Mr. Gann's favorite numbers.  Two numbers that highlight some great Bible verses.

Sherlock Holmes, a fictional detective created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle who was cameo'd twice in TTTTA.  Modestly important by Philo's rules (mentioned only twice in TTTTA) but I'll offer an observation made by Holmes that might be interesting:

Yes, Sir Arthur was quite the spiritualist.

And WD Gann, quite a spiritualist as well.   I like to think of the just over 12 books published by Roger Brothers as the real WD Gann reading list.  It includes a Bible prophecy author (Thomas Troward, "Bible Prophecy..."), a book on Pythagorean numerology ("The Ancient Science of Numbers"), a book on very deep philosophy and spiritualism by Judge David Hatch ("The Straight Goods on Philosophy"), and a number of books on really deep symbolic, religious spiritualism.  In TTTTA we have a number of tales about spiritual experiences and Maries mysterious appearance in France.  All things are circular....

*****

All of the above to what end?  

WD Gann was born in 1878, 252 years after Lord Francis Bacon passed in 1626.

Not buying the implication?  I wouldn't either had I not had the experience explained HERE.  As it is, I will not discount the suggestion.

Gosh, I've written all this and I now find out Francis Bacon was actually reincarnated as a particularly distinguished individual who is found HERE.

2016, part 3 of 5 - Supporting the October 28 characterization of the year 2016

From the October 28 essay "2016, part 1 of 4:"

Facts, patterns and circumstances yet to be provided in forthcoming essays suggest: 

- a great natural disaster will occur in 2016, most likely in January, and, based on a perceived clue provided by Mr. Gann and the geologic character of the area, it will be located in or near San Francisco, 

- partly the result the predicted earthquake, the nation and world economy will suffer and the stock market will be severely affected,

- world political distress will continue to the extent that there is a clearly recognized definition of the war between Islam and the nations of infidels, that either the Jews or Muslims will be exiled from Old Jerusalem, and that redefinitions of the relationship of many central governments and their constituent peoples will be redefined, and

- United States political distress will continue to the extent the country will be propelled either towards its current direction of increased government or reversed towards greater personal freedom.

As was the character of the world 168 years (one of 15 periods of the Great Week) prior to 2016 in 1848,  "revolution" is not to be considered "remote."

The above predictions are made based upon "facts, patterns and circumstances" and are not made based upon the mathematics and physics of the 4th dimension that I believe WD Gann encoded into "The Tunnel Thur the Air" and other of his works.  Rather, for the less able (me), he left heuristic devices, clues, apparent time cycles, acrostic and telestic hints that provide an 'alternate means' to understand future events.   I expect this 'alternate means' to be not remotely as granular as the exactness of his methods of mathematics and science.  [To support that conclusion I would invite the reader to reconsider the exactness found in the 6th and 7th Prophecies.]

That said, following are my observations and rational by which I characterized the year 2016 (mid 2015 to mid 2016):

- a great natural disaster will occur in 2016 -   Based on some fancy math I projected this event would occur between January 8 and January 28.  I should not get fancy.  There are only two proven things that bear upon this this prediction and they don't include my unproven math.  What has been proven to me is Mr. Gann could predict the future and he left us 1) the WD Gann Map of Time (MOT) and clues.  

Quite simply, a great earthquake occurred 168 years ago measured from 2016 in Marlborough NZ and comparable date on the MOT would be February 23 or 24, 2016 based upon the MOT having a "right beginning" that of the summer solstice in 1932.  If the "right beginning" is July 4, 1932, the date of the final battle of TTTTA, then it will be two weeks different.  

You sense my uncertainty as I intend.  Yes, the MOT is like a huge Rubik's Cube; you change one square and it affects 5 others.  I've spent hundreds of hours trying to perfect the order of the lines to align historic dates.  No, it isn't a matter of fiddling with the data to reach the desired result.  Simple printing rules (one line space after a paragraph break, one after a salutation, etc.) can only be stretched so far.  My 'fiddling,' at worst, causes date variances of a couple lines.  

Here is the MOT lines that indicate the earthquake will occur on February 24, 2016:


On the left side you will see the date October 16, 1848, the date of the Marlborough earthquake and on the right you will find the date February 24, 2016, the predicted date.  If anything, the MOT will be wrong; but by a day or two because I am wrong in my rendition of the MOT and my imperfection in having not perfected it.  And I believe the February 24 date is wrong because of the nearness of another very important personal date.  February 21 is my birthdate.  I prefer to believe my rendition of the MOT is off a line and the date of the earthquake, should it occur, will be February 21, 2016.

I would invite you to read the narrative of that is associated with these dates...


Now, why do I think the earthquake will occur in San Francisco?  Its not in the MOT.  It is clues; the first historic event mentioned in TTTTA is the San Francisco earthquake...page 1, paragraph 1.  And it is the rear dust jacket:

The left spreadsheet is is snapshot of the MOT including the first paragraph of the MOT.  The middle picture is the Dome of the Rock which was damaged by an earthquake in August of 1016....1000 years ago.  Recall the 1000-year cycle is the only cycle of the many that Mr. Gann referred to as "great." And the image on the right is the rear dust jacket of TTTTA.  You may note there, unlike the front dust jacket, there aren't any planes falling on the pictured city.  You might note the buildings appear as if they are on a hill, and they seem oddly tilted.  Maybe, maybe not.  That's what I see.  But we both see the dome, don't we?

If you Google "dome San Francisco image" you get:
There are 2 domes pictured above; the dome of the Palace of Fine Arts built for the 1915 San Francisco World's Fair (top left, top right, bottom left, bottom right) and the City of San Francisco dome of City Hall (middle images).

Do they look like the dome of the rear dust jacket?

How was I first led to the above?  It was a clue, or I perceived it a clue for the prediction has not occurred.  The clue was the number 110 derived from numbers associated with Mr. Gann's gravestone.  The upper die of the stone measures 30"X30"x8".  30 X 8 = 240.  Mr. and Mrs. Gann's combined life span was 77 years plus 53 years, respectively, or 130 years.  240 minus 130 is 110 and 110 years added to the 1906 San Francisco earthquake is 2016.  And we find 110 years between the first battle of the Revolutionary War in 1776 (the Battle of Brooklyn fought on and near Green-Wood Cemetery where Mr. Gann is buried) and the dedication of the Statue of Liberty in 1886.

Perhaps 110 is a valid clue Mr. Gann left, perhaps it is nothing.  We will know the answer in 2016.

-partly the result the predicted earthquake, the nation and world economy will suffer and the stock market will be severely affected-  This only makes common sense.  If we study the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, the Dow had topped only a couple weeks before.  On the news of the earthquake, one would assume, the was a drop in the market but it wasn't exceedingly severe and recovered quickly.  Elliott wavers would say that was the waves A and B with the secondary top preceding a great decline into latter 1906 and 1907.  It was a big decline.

In 1906-07, there wasn't a fraction of the population in San Francisco then as opposed to now...and yet some 6,000 people perished.  There wasn't a fraction of the nation's domestic product being produced in the area.  But now, what proportion of the U.S.' highest gross margin products are being produced?  Wherein the gold rush of San Francisco, largely dissipated in 1906, was unlikely to have been damaged in 1906, what might occur should a major earthquake do to the intellectual product of the Silicone Valley....resulting from deaths of technology specialists and entrepreneurs, impairments of operating technology companies, and dislocations of both?

The City would suffer, but I'd expect the nation, stock market and world would suffer.

-world political distress will continue to the extent that there is a clearly recognized definition of the war between Islam and the nations of infidels, that either the Jews or Muslims will be exiled from Old Jerusalem, and that redefinitions of the relationship of many central governments and their constituent peoples will be redefined-  This prediction is largely based on the MOT; that this last year of this 168-year cycle, 2016 (mid 2015 to mid 2016) will reflect the same conditions as existed in 1848.  And turmoil reigned in Europe.  Three predictions; a clearer definition of war emerges, one party will be exiled from Old Jerusalem, and redefinition of the relationship between people and their government.  I will subdivide the discussion into 3 parts.

A new definition of "the" war.   In 1996 Osama Bin Laden declared holy war, Fatwa, against the United States (see HERE) and it didn't make a ripple in national thought.  In 2001, the national consciousness moved to the point that a small portion of the good and holy religion of Islam had been "hijacked" by "extremists." To this day, the politically correct position remains one that Islam is not the enemy of all those other than of Islamic faith.  But that sentiment is changing.

I had to do some research to gain perspective on whether there is, largely, a war on non Islamic populations.  Round numbers from Wikipedia which are debatable; there are 1.5 billion Muslims in the world and somewhere between 23% and 83% (depending on the nation) of Muslims believe violence can never be justified.  What about those who accept violence as acceptable?  Between 2% and 8% of Muslims believe violence can be justified often.  Let's take the least unfavorable number that being 2% of Muslims believe violence is justified frequently and multiply it by the 1.5 billion number.  That's an 'army' of 30,000,000 ready to justify the use of violence freely.

My position is a war has been occurring but the national and international consciousness only now becoming aware; it is accelerating.  Mr. Gann might say, as time runs out, activity increases (of course he was speaking of volume and price, but allow me some leeway).  As this 168-year and other cycles end, events become more rapid.  This day, November 20, ISIS terrorists are executing guests at a hotel in Mali, November 13, 129 were murdered in Paris, October 31, 224 killed when a Russian plane was bombed.....  The list goes on and on.

And just since I wrote the above there has emerged another inching of the public consciousness towards a definition of the problem.  Certainly, the problem is as old as the crusades...certainly longer.  But the consciousness of the reality is way behind.  I expect the 'consciousness' to take a leap forward in the U.S. at least by virtue of the Presidential elections.

A new exile.  This prediction is made based first on the Biblical "Great Week" cycle.  The "Great Week" is 2520 years (7 periods of 360 years or 7 circles) and represents the rule of the gentiles over the Jews.  Thomas Troward explained the mathematics of the Great Week in his 1915 book "The Years 1914 to 1923 in Bible Prophecy - Scripture Prediction of the Present War." [Incidentally, I would argue Mr. Troward predicted the end of the war in 1919 which did occur as memorialized in the Treaty of Versailles.]

2520 years can be applied by either solar years or by lunar years.  Mr. Troward does not use the 2600 year period as suggested.  However, on page 9 he notes that in 2520 solar years, lunar years would exceed solar years by '75.' This occurs because there are 365 days in the solar year and 354 in the lunar year.  Mr. Troward rounded...if you use the exact number of days in the solar year of 365.242 days, you arrive at the 2600 lunar year equivalent, not 2520 + 75 = 2595 lunar equivalents.  Here are a couple of calculations with which I have previously struggled:


You can see my personal struggle to understand.  The complications; what is the correct mathematic interpretation of the "Great Week" and what is the 'bright line' year of "the Exile?" Let's boil it down to this...regardless of the mathematics and regardless of the whether the Exile occurred in 583 or 586 B.C., 2015 and 2016 is close.

We can 'triangulate' the "Great Week" extrapolation; we have the ending of the 168-year cycle, a 1/15th component of the 2520 years (2520 / 168 =15).  If we count from the year 1 A.D. we are ending the 12th period of 15.  If we count from "the Exile" wherever it was in time, we are at the end of the 15th and final period of the "Great Week."

Is it surprising that Mr. Gann told us on page 82 of the "remarkable events" that would occur in the wake of the election of the 266th Pope (Pope Francis, elected 2013, is acclaimed the 266th Pope)?

A redefinition of the relationship between nations' people and their governments.  This comment is based on the 168-year cycle, the MOT and the events of the reflective year, 1848.

Counting back the 168 years to the history the MOT says will be repeated in 2016 brings us to the year 1848.  In that year of 1848 a 'wave' of revolutions swept many of the countries in Europe.  Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels had written and issued their "Communist Manifesto" and were actively involved in the promotion of the worker revolutions against the many European aristocracies.  The year 1848 is referred to variously as the "Year of Revolutions," the "Spring of Nations,".....

In the United States, there was a building of the nation.  The Mexican American War had recently ended and there was a massive acquisition of what is now the southwestern United States.  Under the Treaty of Guadalupe (February 2, 1848), the U.S. annexed Texas and agreed to purchase all property north of the Rio Grande.  [Some have proposed the seeds of the Civil War were sewn in 1848 as many of U.S. military considered it a shameless use of U.S. might for the purpose of annexation and the proposals to make the new territories slave states.]

In both Europe and the United States, the building of nations.  Redefinitions of peoples and their countries.  In Europe, from aristocracies to democracies.  In the U.S. a massive land acquisition which many military personnel believed to be a shameless use of war for the purpose of expansion.

What reflection, history repetition, might we see 168 years later in 2016?  [Again, 2016 stretches from mid 2015 to mid 2016 according to the MOT.]

Certainly, we are seeing turmoil in Europe with the increasing frequency of terrorist attacks.  Even without a recent attack in the U.S. there is increased anxiety likely to increase even without an attack at home.  We have the President downplaying the events and mocking his opponents for opposing Syrian immigration to the U.S. while presidential candidates contest that initiative.

Consider the changes in Europe since 1848...a dominant theme of a single Europe; no borders.  Similarly, a lack of border enforcement in the U.S.  It was the European Union, not the constituent states.

Then came the financial crisis in Europe that threatened the Euro, the membership of insolvent Greece in the union and the continuity of the EU itself.

And now its the refugee crisis.  In the wake of the Syrian migration to Europe, several countries (Greece, Bulgaria, Germany and others) have taken measures ranging from erecting fences to armed confrontation to stop the migration.  As recently as 3 days prior to this post, 32 states have declared they will not accept Syrian refugees being distributed to their state.  The House of Congress has followed up by passing an act prohibiting the unfitted acceptance of Syrian refugees with the Senate set to undertake the question and expected to pass the bill.  The only question is whether the Senate will make it a veto proof bill the President has otherwise declared he will veto.

Confrontation on the highest levels of society and government in 2016.

Where 1848 was a tumultuous building of nations involving revolution in Europe and war in the U.S., 2016, we might entertain the thought that 2016 will be a year of dissembling of nations.

*****

I am going to end the discussion here because it is both a bit long in the tooth and the next essay, 2016, part 4 of 4, will be different in an important respect.  In the "2016, part 4 of 4" I will treat the last two items of the five predictions I made in part 1 of 4 of this series on October 28. 

The next essay will have political themes.  I've tried to keep my work on this blog apolitical ....politics are opinionated and emotional...uncivil.    But there isn't a way to treat comparative history without politics. Extrapolating the future based on the events of, in this case, 1848 cannot be done without referring to Marx and Engels, the workers revolutions, socialism and finding their likeness in 2016.  Those great themes of 1848 must, according to the MOT, have reflection in 2016 and I will be forced in providing my very biased, very conservative view.

So, you may wish to avoid what will be, undoubtedly inflammatory to some and music to the choir to the others.  Regrettably,

As the subject was left in the preceding essay, the final two descriptions of the year 2016 offered on October 28 will be undertaken in this essay.  This series will morph to a 5th essay on the year 2016 as you may note.

This essay was segregated from the previous discussion first because it just takes too much space in a post and time to read (much less to write) comparative history.  But secondly, this essay will be political.  Comparative history is, I am realizing, subjective and political.  Still, events, however you characterize them as good or bad, simply occur.  If the reader and myself can see past my personal bias (highly conservative), perhaps the objective repetitive event can be seen.  I apologize for the lack of civility and hope it will be overlooked for the sake of, as Lord Bacon would say, "considering."

My entire journey has been driven by 'happenings' that I cannot explain.  I find my last name, then first name in the telestic encoding of "The Tunnel Thru the Air" and, uncomfortably, consider it the 'fat tail' of the normal distribution of probability.  And then I realize my street address would be spelled in the encoding to assure me it wasn't chance (see the 7th Prophecy series HERE).  I'm standing near the Great Tree and hypothetical '13th stone' in Green-Wood Cemetery last Sunday and my son-in-law calls me up to just behind Mr. Ganns gravestone where, unintentionally, he notices his birthday and my daughter's birthday on the stone exactly behind that Mr. Gann's.  And when I return to the hypothetical 13th stone, I look at the dates on the stone and the top date is the day and month my son passed (see HERE).  His date of passing reduces to 999.  Mr. Gann's birthdate of June 6, 1878 reduces to 666.  Here's a pictorial of those two events:


[Note, the die of the 13th stone is off its base by a good 5 inches.  That is a big monument; hundreds of pounds.  It is the only monument I have seen that was so offset.  There are scrape marks on the base where it slid sidewards but there aren't any marks on the face or rear of the stone indicating it had been knocked sidewards by lawn equipment.   I do not understand the meaning, if any.  Mark that as random but very disconcerting.]

So, I sit down in my easy chair to read the many, then contemporaneous, 1848-1849 essays on their revolution and what was the first thing I read (from History.com, 2010, written by staff)?


The first thing I notice is the date; the month and day I was born.  It just keeps happening.  It should not be lost on the reader that the year, 1848 plus 168 years (the period of the MOT and 1/15th of the Biblical "Great Week") is.....2016.  And 2016 is the last year of the MOT and, perhaps, the last year of the Great Week when reckoned from "the Exile." Perhaps 2016 the end of an Biblical epoch.

The second thing I notice is the wording that "history...of society is the history of class struggle." There wasn't a qualification of "economic history" or "religious history." It is simply, the "history of society" is "class struggle." I take from that, there is not an inconsistency between the 1848 class struggle between the aristocracy and working class when compared to the religious struggle between Islam and the infidel of 2016 (remember, 2016 is mid 2015 to mid 2016 per the Map of Time or MOT).  There isn't a difference between the 1848 class struggle and the struggle between those of us branded the "white privilege" class versus all others.  There isn't a difference between the 1848 class struggle and the 2016 struggle between those in the U.S. aristocracy (as government is considered by many in its elevation of perpetuation over principle) and its dependents versus those of us not in government (including the dependents of government).  Simply, class struggle characterizes the history of society.

With those first thoughts, I will treat the following two of five descriptions of the 'year' 2016 as a single theme comparing conditions in and around 3 years; 1848, 1932 and 2016 :

- United States political distress will continue to the extent the country will be propelled either towards its current direction of increased government or reversed towards greater personal freedom.

- As was the character of the world 168 years (one of 15 periods of the Great Week) prior to 2016 in 1848,  "revolution" is not to be considered "remote."

1848 and surrounding years.  As previously discussed, the beginning of the MOT, 1848, is known as the "Spring of Nations,""Year of Revolutions," etc.    I doubt anyone doubts revolutions emerge from anything other than discontent and, so, what were the conditions that lead to the discontent of 1848?  Run a search on the "Great Famine" and you'll quickly find that on the order of 1 million Irish died when the potato crop was infected and failed in the mid 1840s.  That's 1 million Irish out of some population that was likely not an enormous number.  Similarly, the entire European continent was deeply depressed in famine and consequent unrest.  The famine lasted years and is noted to have stretched from the mid 1840s to and including the "Year of Revolutions."

Famine giving rise to revolution.  Not so novel a concept, but file that in your attic of ideas for now.

Naturally, persons living on the margin were pressed to the point of starvation while the aristocracy may have lost ground but were hardly, we would think, faced with such consequence.  Amid the contrast of suffering versus abundance, we have developed the ideal circumstances wherein the 'organizers' of unrest are in the sweet spot of their conditions in which their profession thrives.

And there we find Friedrich Engels and Karl Marx.  Early on, 1818 Prussian born Karl Marx wrote for a liberal democratic newspaper in Cologne but it was closed for its outspoken opinions.  With that Marx moved to Paris in 1843, then the focus of socialist thought.  As a co-editor of a Parisian newspaper, Marx adopted the more extreme form of socialist thought.  He also met Friedrich Engels whose political thought was the same.  We might expect Marx' rhetoric was as inflammatory in Paris as it was in Prussia because he was expelled from Paris in 1845.

Marx and Engels reunited in Brussels in 1847, establishing the "League of the Just," a secret society of German revolutionaries, and developing their communist philosophy.  Shortly thereafter, Marx was commissioned by the newly renamed "Communist League" to document the manifesto of communism.  On February 21, 1848, the "Communist Manifesto" was published and the next day, February 22, 1848 the Paris revolution began (the two events are not directly related as copies of the Manifesto were, on February 22, not distributed in Paris).  [An inquiring reader might look at the dates on the hypothetical 13th stone above for the date, February 22.  I could write that off as random, but I no longer believe in coincidence.]

Professional struggling class organizers creating revolution out of dire societal circumstance.

Obviously, we have organizers pitting the lower classes against the wealthy.

We have in 1848, as well, the organization and exposition of socialist and communist thought.

The revolutions of 1848 failed in that year but found their successes in Lenin's Russia, Mao's China, Catro's Cuba and on.

1932 and surrounding years.  The mid point of the 168-year MOT, is also the low point of the stock market decline from the great market high of September 1929.  The crash of 1929, much as the Great Famine in mid 1840's Europe, set the conditions that prevailed in 1932; unemployment, soup lines, depression...

Can anyone, with good face, contest the assertion that the first year from the 'right beginning' of the MOT or 1933, marked the year in which the United States' government began a 'transformation' from small government to large government?  President Franklin D. Roosevelt introduced and had enacted his first "New Deal" to be followed by in 1935 by the second "New Deal."

Out of the "first 100 days," the "New Deal," the second "New Deal" and later acts, the U.S. Federal Government  grew by the Works Progress Administration, Agricultural Adjustment Administration, Tennessee Valley Authority, the National Labor Relations Board, the Social Security Administration, the Home Owner's Loan Corporation, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Securities and Exchange Commission....  Whew.

Of all that, the United States economic conditions staged little recovery and, in 1937, relapsed into depression.  By many if not most economists and historians, it was not until the stimulus of productivity occasioned by World War II did the U.S. emerge from depression.

FDR was an adept politician.  Many of his great advancements were decried as unconstitutional and his reaction to prevent their being overturned by the conservative Supreme Court was to threaten to "pack the Court" with liberal justices.

As well, FDR used his pulpit to further polarize the populace in a campaign, right or wrong, to hate the industrialists, bankers and wealthy interests.  All's fair in love and politics as the wealthy branded FDR a Marxist-Leninist.  However, much as we might take choose sides of the fence, the objective view would be the rhetoric pitted the struggling classes against one another.

Was 1932, the mid point of the MOT, the beginning of a quiet revolution born out of dire social times (unemployment, poverty, famine...)?

As in 1848 where organizers pitted the classes against one another, the President did so.


I could make much more of the Depression years, but the thread of thought seems persuasive in my albeit biased view.  Besides, it's better for each to ponder the similarities and differences to explore the validity of the MOT and/or the concept of history repeating itself.

2016 and surrounding years.  In 2016 we are faced with many class struggles in both Europe and in the U.S.:

  • Black Lives Matter versus White Privilege (more-so in the U.S. than Europe), 
  • Islam versus the Infidel (more-so in Europe that the U.S.), and
  • An alliance of workers, government dependents (welfare and Federal government employees), and the 'new aristocracy' including Congress and, again, Federal government workers versus those not in those classes.
The first two of the above struggles are obvious.  I will avid treatment of the former two themes but they are self explanatory in my opinion.  

In the third instance we have an interesting class struggle of an alliance of the government dependents and Congressional representatives.  Think about this.  Never has food stamp enrollment been greater.  As the welfare grows, so grows the index of poverty.  As government grows so grows the wealth of the the other class of Federal dependents; those who work for the Federal government.  By most measures, the per capita wealthiest city in the U.S. is Washington DC.  And what real and consumable good does Washington produce?  Computers, no.  Cars, no.  Food, no.....    

Washington DC is the new aristocracy; itself an alliance of a dependent class, that being the wealthy (by national standards) Federal government worker and the Congressional representatives (inclusive of not only Democrats but Republicans).  The key is perpetuation of the rulership status quo to retain one's job.

To this scenario of struggles we add a professional community organizer; President Obama.  

The further swing of the pendulum to socialism.  Where the 1848 revolution advocating socialism in Europe failed, the quiet revolution to government dependence in about 1932 began.  The quiet revolution continued with Obamacare and out-the-closet Obamaphones marketed on street corners by or tax payer paid advertisements for food stamps.  If you do the term, Obamaphone, do a search.

Judge by the fruits of labor; is the measure of socialism tipped toward the side of complete free enterprise or toward government control by the Federal government controlling 80% of the mortgage market, 100% of the Student loan market, a large portion of the health care and health care insurance market (Obamacare, Medicare and Medicaid)....  What portion of the economy do these industries represent?  Very large and increasing.  More during FDR's tenure rather than less, more during Obama's tenure rather than less.  Can a dispute be credibly lodged otherwise?

The aristocracy that exists to perpetuate itself.  No, not the same birth right aristocracy as might be found in 1848, but an institution that exists to perpetuate and reward itself.  Democrats understand the key to re election is greater government generosity.  Republicans will not confront expanding government for fear of not being re elected.

There is one missing seed to support some form of revolution; hunger.  Hunger existed in 1848 and in 1932, but it does not exist as it might have in the famines of the 1840s or the soup lines of the 1930s.

*****

The argument is this; do we find the following common elements among the first year of the MOT, 1848, the mid point of the MOT, 1932, and the present:
  • Class struggle,
  • Active promotion of class division and entitlement,
  • A clearly defined aristocracy, and
  • Hunger.
I believe the United States lacks only hunger.  Add the last element and, it would seem, the conditions exist to support revolution.  

How is it plausible this country that feeds a disproportionate portion of the world's population might be unable to feed itself?  A story comes to mind.

I was waiting to check out at the local low end grocery store and every lane was backed up.  People were being turned away and counseled at the store's customer service desk.  There was a a problem with the Electronic Benefit Card system.  Welfare recipients could not use their EBT cards to buy food, cigarettes or beer.  The outage lasted only a couple hours as I understand it and was region as opposed to national. 

The story (and it was real) provides two considerations:
  • In an any network, failure occurs at the networks weakest link in the network.  The U.S. has plenty of food so how would people go unfed;  the inability of the network to distribute money to the government dependents.  This does not have to be an EBT failure.  I recall the CNBC feed of the pre opening floor of the NYSE the day that day in 2008 when overnight letters of credits financing of GE and others failed.  A CNBC announcer asks a floor broker, "What is the mood on the floor?" The response is, "We're all calling home to tell our wives to go to the bank an withdraw all the cash they can...go to the bank, go to the ATMs...get cash." Inter party credit had failed.  Banks could not honor respondent or any bank's obligations.  The great interdependent, modern economy could not operate without inter party and counter party credit.  Could the failure be as simple as a terrorist attack on the Washington clearing apparatus of the Food Stamp program?  Would the great mythological U.S. dollar meltdown be the weakest link?  Would a U.S. debt downgrade melt the monetary framework.  I sense many weak links.
  • Most importantly, would you want to live in an urban area when the lowest rung on the socio-economic ladder cannot be fed?  Even for a single day?
In the final part 5 of this series I will provide what I believe is a clue left by Mr. Gann in how this 2016 scenario "works out." Remember page 82 of "The Tunnel Thru the Air:"



"...remarkable events..."

I have in mind a very complicated post.

***The Beginning***

The Beginning of what I consider the insightful period of my "journey" into "The Tunnel Thru the Air" was the enigma of the "6 eeeeee's." After read how Peter Amundsen found apparent Lord Francis Bacon acrostic and telestic encoding in certain Shakespeare's works, I gave it a shot and found the "6 eeeeee's:"


In red you will see six consecutive e's separated only my spaces corresponding the meaningful text of TTTTA having 3 purposes; to entertain, to teach a moral lesson and to show foreknowledge.

The "6 eeeeee's" are a statistical impossibility.  The self proclaimed only man who could "make a prediction" based on page 69 of TTTTA ridiculed my wonder at the "6 eeeeee's" claiming one can make anything you want out of letters.  He demonstrated to me the Socratic method found in the Apology.  Socrates went to the self proclaimed greatest lawyer, greatest mathematician, greatest artist.... and asked the extent of his knowledge and was told each knew all about that which they knew.  Socrates then knew that he was the smartest of all men for he, at least, knew that he did not know everything; he knew he could not know that which only God could know.

The "6 eeeeee's" are a creation of WD Gann 1) to alert the reader of the importance of the adjacent narrative, 2) to alert the reader the entire book to acrostic and telestic markers and messages throughout the book, 3) to represent the first of 84 similar telestic concatenations of the letter of 'e,' and 4) to make a prediction, itself.

The integrity of the "6 eeeeee's" rests in its statistical improbability.  There are 15K lines in TTTTA so there are the same number of first letters in each line and last letters in each line.  There is a finite number of 15K letters arranged consecutively as either an acrostic or a telestic; not an infinite population nor are the letters re arrangeable as in the Bible Code via its algorithm.  Finite and pre arranged.  The "6 eeeeee's" aren't a divine creation, they were contrived by a man, WD Gann.  The statistical improbability is that, if all letters of the alphabet having an equal probability of being the last letter of a line, the probability of an 'e' ending a line is 1/26 just as the probability of a head occurring in a coin flip is 1/2.  The probability of 2 consecutive heads in 2 tosses is a joint probability of 1/2 X 1/2 or 1/(2^2) or 1/4.  The probability of 2 consecutive 'e's on two lines of text is 1/26 X 1 /26 or 1/(26^2) or 1/676.

The probability of "6 eeeeee's," given an equal probability of that letter's occurrence of of 26 letters, is 1 / (26^6), or "one divided by 26 to the 6th power" or 1 divided by 308,916,776.  Actually, the 'given' in the above phrase is incorrect because 'e' happens to be a popular letter; more words end in 'e' than in 'x' for example.  So, maybe the probability is 1 / (13^6)....   I'll letter the true statisticians parse whether the ultimately improbability is 1 in 300 million or 1 in 150 million...it is small beyond comprehension.

***Three dates***

I've provided my reasons for date 1 in the above excerpt of the MOT, namely February 24, 2016 or thereabout as being an earthquake in San Francisco.  That is one of the three dates in the title of this post.  Later in this post I will modify modify that date slightly.

Date 2, is actually a period of time from March 2, 2016 to March 23, 2016.   It is designated by the "6 eeeeees".  The second date falls within the area covered by the '6 eeeeee's;" an area from lines 47 to 55 or dates of 3/2/2016 to 3/23/2016.   This area might, poetically speaking, be expanded to include all lines between 45 and 55, inclusive.  Why? because 45 and 55 are notable numbers and because that area covers the entirety of Mr. Gann's objectives of TTTTA.

The second date, a span of 21 days, falls within the lines of the 6 eeeeee's.  I believe this correspondence to be very important.

What events in 1948 would mirror those in 2016?  Again, revolution in France, Marx and Engels in Europe and Elizabeth Stanton (as in Marie Stanto) the symbol of women suffrage.  I believe Mr. Gann gave us the greatest emphasis of "6 eeeeee's" to correspond the greatest of the events.  The same themes in 2016; social upheaval in several perspectives (black vs white, Islam vs infidel, lower class vs wealthy, aristocracy and government dependents vs all others, the "war on women").

I reckon from there being a period, this period will be one of great strife; revolution of identifiable nature and significant proportion.  As in 1848, I expect it will be put down but on that I'm unsure.

Date 3 is October 19, 2016.  The third date is October 19, 2016 which I discovered in a contemporary movie critics liked but considered a 'b.' It is the movie "Knowing" with Nicholas Cage.  October 19 is the date the world would end based upon a page of seemingly incomprehensible numbers that Cage realized represented every great disaster over 50 years; it was a "map of time." It was the means by which I discovered the encoding of September 11, 2001 in the MOT.  And Cage ultimately discover October 19 would be the end of the world based upon the letters "EE." Here's the official trailer; use the enlarge button to avoid the distracting advertisement:


Notice the 'seeing eye' at the beginning of the trailer.  Notice the contestation that 'number systems are a dime a dozen' and that 'people see what the want to see.' There is far more in the movie that comports with TTTTA, but are not related to the third date.  One last note about Knowing however.  The author/producer was Ryne Douglas Pearson.  We find the noun Pearson in the TTTTA character, General Pearson, 45 times.  We find the noun Douglas in the TTTTA character, Claire Douglass, 9 times.  We don't find Ryne in the narrative.  We find Ryne spelled 1 time as an acrostic word:


Look it up; page 330.

No, the world won't end on October 19, 2016 (I don't think).  October 19, 2016 has great numerical resonance with 1929.  It is 29 years removed from Black Monday in 1987 and three times 29 years removed from Black Thursday in 1929:

It does not end there; theosophic reduction of October 19, 2016 gives you 119, the reverse of 9/11.  It also gives you page 119 of TTTTA where we find "All his happiness was blasted in a moment:"

I reckon from the above a terrorist attack will occur on October 19, 2016 that will have great impact on the stock market.

Date 1 will be February 22, 2016.  I have changed the date found above in the MOT, February 24, 2016 to a date found one line below that date (indicating an error in my numeration of the lines and dates of TTTTA despite my 100s of hours devoted to perfecting it).  October 19, 2016 is actually beyond the end of the 168-year MOT period which ends at mid year 2016.  What, then, would be the historic reflection of October 19, 2016, early in the life of a new 168-year period, in the ending 168-year period?  It would be about February 22, 2016:


There's always a "there's more." You see the computed date of the equidistant reflection of dates is February 20, 2016 and yet I say above February 22, 2016.  IF the San Francisco earthquake happens, then it will be between February 20, 2016 and February 24, 2016 is my interpretation.  And earthquakes are never isolated in a moment or day with preamble shocks and aftershocks happening days before and after.  I select the day of February 22, 2016 because it is the birth date of George Washington, a great Mason and Founding Father of this nation.  February 22 is also the 53rd day of the calendar year and one of the angles of the Pythagorean right triangle (90*, 53* and 37*).  53 is the a number symbolic of the Mason and of the Rosicrucian and revered by both.  [It has not escaped notice that my birth date is February 21.]

I reckon, therefore, the predicted San Francisco earthquake will occur February 22, 2016 with preamble shocks from February 20 to February 24.

***The Final Problem***


....happened. (1)

Above from "The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes," Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Adventure 11.  I add the last word "happened" because I believe my journey is representative of those things Mr. Gann buried to "forewarn" the world of the "remarkable events" that would follow the election of the 266th Pope (page 82 of TTTTA).

Conscious of the narcissism that would pervade the following thought, I view myself now the Dr. Watson that chronicles the unspeakable genius of WD Gann.  Whether this view is truthful or delusory is contingent first on the events of the three dates listed above; the first harbinger of which will be February 22, 2016.  I am led to this point by incredible circumstances the number and character of which contradict all that I have been taught about a random world.  Is the world random or is the world determined, at least to some great extent?  Again, that "b" rated movie, "Knowing:"


Prediction isn't possible without determinism.  It is impossible in a world of randomness.  Nassim Taleb ("The Black Swan") tells us the "fat tail" statistical improbability of the number of one-day stock market declines exceeding 5% (from recollection, might be 10%) in the two centuries of American stock market operation exceeds the number of stars in the infinite universe...there aren't enough zeros to express that improbability.  And yet, there are people and organizations that successfully game the system.  The great Benoit Mandelbrot stood outside the foreign currency trading room of Citicorp in the mid 1980s wherein 40% of the world currencies were traded without commission.  He was told it was the most profitable operation in that great bank and he remarked (from recall of his book) "This cannot be random."

"The Final Problem" has plagued me for weeks.  It concerns the WD Gann Memorial Triangle (GMT) comprised of three points; A-the Statue of Liberty dedicated in 1887, B-the location of the fictional Mammoth Building at 42nd and Broadway, the site and time (1932) of the fiction "final battle" of TTTTA (which was actually both New York and Washington comprising one battle though separated in time) and C-the Green-Wood Cemetery, where WD Gann was buried in 1955 and which was also the location of the first organized battle of the Revolutionary War in 1776:


With those three points and that same timer interval (23 years) I demonstrated that 2001 was "triangulated" from the three points in time (1886, 1932 and 1955).  Simply, to 1886 add 5X23 years to get 2001, to 1932 add 3X23 to get 2001 and to 1955 add 2X23 to get 2001.  Mr. Gann triangulated the 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center in somewhat this fashion I expect.  This is the 6th Prophecy explained beginning HERE.

The GMT is an incredible device that, I believe, holds the key to reckoning the mathematics and geometry put to the purpose of predicting exact time and place of future events; predicting the future in a Minkowski space (a concept in Einsteinian physics of special relativity associated with an area in space that is dominated by a gravity well-the earth's gravity well in or case).

The GMT is something much simpler for those of us who have not re discovered the actual physical and natural law described in the preceding paragraph.  The easiest observation of the above is the 3 aforementioned points of the triangle are separated by 23, 46 and 69 years or multiples of 23.  The problem I had was why 1955?  Well, yes, Mr. Gann was a great man and, having seen what I've seen, the greater among himself and the great Albert Einstein.  Mr. Einstein proposed special and general relativity in 1905 and 1915 (from recall), respectively.  Mr. Gann discovered and implemented the former in my observation and opinion before the Ticker Interview in 1908.  Still, why would 1955 be so important despite his greatness?

So the final problem is this; why 1955 and what is the intended composition of the GMT?

We understand the nature and gravity of point A; it is the symbolic dedication of the nation to freedom under God, the elimination of slavery, the uplifting of the lowly... in 1886.  It is the circular as the Island of the SOL is near circular with the design of the "Tree of Life."

We might stretch to understand the otherwise fictional point B, the site of the 110-story Mammoth Building for it is the located at the site of the present Conde Nast Building at 42nd and Broadway.  The fictional battle of New York occurred July 4, 1932, substantially the bottom of the Great Stock Market Crash that began in 1929 and the Conde Nast now the home of the NASDAQ.

Yet again why is point B 1955?  Because 1955 is just a clue contrived by Mr. Gann (prescient, of course, of when the year in which he would die).  The real point B is not 1955; it is the site of the first battle of the Revolutionary War in 1776.  I'll provide the numerical proof of Mr. Gann's intention...he left the final proof on his gravestone.  Below are the clues we will need:


Better defined, the problem is I cannot "triangulate" the three points in time redefined as 1776, 1886 and 1932 to the year 2016.  See the ???? above.  I "know" the clues I am given will triangulate 2016 as the originally defined GMT triangulated and predicted the 2001 attacks.  I lived with this deep enigma for months and then I knew.  But I couldn't solve those question marks.

I can triangulate the Statue of Liberty dedication in 1886 to 2016 with the combined life span of Mr. and Mrs. Gann or 130 years (a measurement of time).  I can triangulate the first battle of the Revolutionary War in 1776 with 2016 using a measurement of space that being 30" X 8" = 240.  Interpreted as years we have 1776 + 240 years and we have 2016.

But what about 1932, the bottom of the stock market crash of 1929?  Sherlock Holmes taught Dr. Watson that the detective has an advantage; he knows the answer so he can work backwards to find clues, then develop theories and then test the theories against data to eliminate those theories without merit.  What is left, however implausible is the truth.  The answer is 84 year or 2016 minus 1832.  That noteworthy page of TTTTA that give us this short discussion:


As often it does, the question confronted me every night as I tried to sleep and every morning when I awoke when, ultimately, I awoke with the answer this weekend.  The answer 84 is a comprised of a time component and a space component.  It is the years of Mr. Gann's life plus the depth of the gravestone AND the years of Sadie Gann's life plus the planar measurement of the gravestone:


And there we have it, the answer to The Final Problem.  From Mr. Gann's clues, the year, 2016, is proven by numbers.  Just as Mr. Gann told us in the acrostic and telestic encoding of the TTTTA, NUMBER  is the If and Why of all things:


I take liberties with my interpretation of the above, but do not make excuse nor will demur.

***The End***

Not the end of my journey but the end game.  What does the derivation of the final answer being 2016 mean?  What does the end of the MOT period of 168 year portend?  What if it is not merely an ending of a MOT period but the end of a Biblical Great Week epoch?

I believe it means the "nation as founded" (to use the vogue phrase), ends.  This interpretation somewhat comports with Jonathan Cahn's thesis expressed in "The Harbinger," the same Isaiah 9:10/11 interpretation I find in TTTTA (the 110-story, the cedar, the falling buildings of Robert Gordon's 7 days aka, falling stones....).  That the second of only two nations founded under God will face judgement and the removal of the Grace of God.  It is the symbolic Statue of Liberty of 1886 plus the combined life spans of the Gann's of 130 year equals the year 2016.  And what is the message we find on page 130 of TTTTA?


*****

These are not my messages.  I'm merely the stooge finite mathematician who stumbled on a problem that he can't put down.  Perhaps my interpretation of Mr. Gann's work is flawed...in many respects I haven't a doubt it is.  But I've laid out the vast majority of facts, circumstances and patterns which have caused me to believe as I do.  You can replicate the work I have done in all substantial respects.

IF, after diligently performing that work, you agree, then you have a responsibility to yourself, then to your family, then to others as explained on page 83 of TTTTA:


I doubt one of the of the very few people that read this blog and the even fewer that have more than a modest understanding of TTTTA, as persons of math and science, will undertake the challenge to prove my work to themselves and then act in the spirit of the plea reprised above.  I hope to be proven wrong.

In fact, I hope to be proven wrong about all that which I have written because...for otherwise, the coming years will not be good ones for the United States and the world.

(1) A footnote.  Dr. Watson did not know the whole truth.  Sherlock staged his death from the Reichenbach Fall after having done away with Moriarty.  He staged his own death to go undercover to ferret out the vast tentacles of Moriartiy, eliminate them and then be free to regain his own life.  So when you read that I, as did Dr. Watson, am the only one who "knows" WD Gann....well, Dr. Watson didn't "know" after all.  Now did he?  Nor do I.  Do your own work, find that which is good and hold fast to that which is good.






Road trip #3 to Mr. Gann's grave, 2 of 3 - The View of Manhattan

$

I owe a great debt to Olga Morales.  In early days of studying WD Gann I saw a picture of her next to his gravestone on a trip she made to Green-Wood Cemetery.  I recall she commented that his stone faced Manhattan but there was a Great Tree that obstructed the view.  Mostly because I wanted to pay tribute to Mr. Gann, but also to verify that reflection of the orientation of the stone and the Great Tree, I made my first trip to Brooklyn on June 21, 2015.  And then, armed with more questions about what I'd identified as the WD Gann Gravestone Geometry (GGG) of 12 stones placed in apparent triangular orientation, I made a return trip on August 2, 2015.  Each trip answered questions, each trip brought new questions.

And so it was that I'd planned a third trip introduced in 1 of 3 of this series.  There were 3 questions I wanted answered:

  • Is the stone that is closest to and underneath the Great Tree the 13th stone?
  • Does the Great Tree obscure the view of Manhattan in the winter when dormant?
  • Is there a stone that has an "Endowment" medallion on it that would indicate that the person who so provided the endowment had an agreement regarding the maintenance of the 12 (or 13) stones comprising the GGG.
I'll defer the first of the above questions because confirming the 13th stone will be a matter of math and geometry associated with the GGG.  That is planned for the 3 of 3 of this series.

The second question is easy to answer with a picture:


So, for Olga, based on our visit November 15, 2015, I can confirm the Great Tree does not obscure the view of Manhattan in the winter.  The picture from my iPhone is not good, and the color of 1 WTC tends to blend with the skyline, but you can faintly see that most prominent of all buildings from the position from which I am taking the picture; from behind Mr. Gann's gravestone.

Noteworthy are the 3 stones which I annotated 8, 9 and 11 above.  Realizing I am standing in front of stone 5 (Mr. Gann's stone is #3) in the November picture, there is a diamond formed from my position, and those three annotated stones.  You can see from the above picture  that the diamond points from my position, stone 5, through stone 11 and directly at 1 WTC.  Of course, neither WTC nor 1 WTC were in existence in 1955 when Mr. Gann was buried or in 1942 when Mrs. Gann was interred.  Here is a Google Earth picture of the diamond (the diamond is in red and yellow vectors) amidst the other 9 stones of the GGG:


The diamond from stone #5 looking through stone 11 gives the view of 1 WTC you see in the first picture above.  As I recall, from stone #3, avoids the obstruction of the Great Tree even better and has a better view.  But there's another advantage of the view from Mr. Gann's grave.  From stone #3, there is a distant view of the Statue of Liberty.  I did not have binoculars with me but I walked left and dow the hill and I saw the Statue of Liberty.  It is very small...not like the huge 1 WTC...so its tough.  But stone #3 has a view of both.  Stone 5 does not have a view of the Statue due to the Great Tree.

Now the third question, the endowment.  While at Green-Wood Cemetery I thought I'd totally 'whiffed' this one.  I visited every stone within 30 yards or so of the center of the that diamond above and did not find an endowment emblem.  After leaving the Cemetery, I realized the answer.  I had found it on the second visit and did not realize it.  The endowment emblem was on the Great Tree and I had a picture of it from both August 2, 2015 and from November 15, 2015:

It was tough to take a picture of the emblem on the Great Tree as I'm about 5'8," okay, I lie, I'm 5'7".  The picture on the left give you 19 centered over 42 and the emblem on the right you can see it is actually E19 over 42.  That means Endowed 1942.

Who endowed the Great Tree in 1942.  I searched for stones and the only 1842 that I readily located was well known to me; that of Sadie Gann who passed and was interred in 1842.  From the 2nd trip I 'thought' I recalled the stone next to the Great Tree had an endowment emblem on it and a date of 1942.  I was wrong on both counts.  Here's a picture of the hypothetical 13th stone sitting about 3 feet right of the Great Tree if one is looking at the tree from Mr. Gann's grave:



So I have a proposition.  Mr. Gann provided us an enigma.  He endowed a Great Tree, a species he knew would grow so large as to obscure the summer view of Manhattan, a Buckeye Hickory.  [I had a botanist at a local nursery make an identification from some bark, leaves and pictures.  The botanist is a southern species expert and not a northern expert but we spent time reviewing the different species online and we feel close.  It is a very wide tree with low growing limbs whose leaves are quickly lost in the fall.  It is a very strong and enduring tree...hickory was used for golf clubs for it strength until the 1960s.]

Why did Mr. Gann obscure the view?  Again a proposition.  Without any trees in Green-Wood Cemetery and standing at Mr. Gann's grave you would easily see 1 WTC and, though smaller, the Statue of Liberty.  With the tree's obstruction, you cannot see either in the spring and summer months.  But you "know" they are there.  You know because you know the sun is behind you standing at Mr. Gann's grave, that the WTC is west and the Statue of Liberty is southwest or to your right.  You know as well because the geometry and math of the compass and circle tell you they are where they are supposed to be.  The lesson to me is that:

Just because I cannot see a thing, such as the simultaneous existence of a point in 
time and space four dimensional spacetime, does not mean it is not there.
Armed with the correct math and geometry, we might find places in spacetime
that we cannot see.  We might...predict the future.  Is this what Mr. Gann knew?

Sir Arthur Eddington in Space Time and Gravitation explains it in the story many have heard before. That if man were born with a third eye in the middle of his forehead, then he might not only be able to see the perspective made possible by our two forward spaced eyes (three dimensions), but we might see the perspective of the fourth dimension as well.  Of course, Sir Arthur was taking some liberties, but the thought is that we, as humans, are not able to perceive the full nature of time.  We see it as a forward vector from present towards future when, in reality perhaps, it may be that all time, past, present and future coexist. And yet we can see time only in a forward direction.

Maybe, maybe not, but that's where I am at the moment.

Every trip produces a new mystery.  When examining the hypothetical 13th stone I noticed is was slid off the center of its base.  [Holmes would have been proud of me to notice that.]  There were not any scrape marks on any of the sides of the die to indicate equipment having made contact with it.  It was dislodged closest to the tree and there was a mere 3 feet max between the tree and stone...self propelled equipment could never have moved between the two.  My son-in-law, a bull of a man, said he'd never had been able to move that die as it was moved...I sure couldn't.  We couldn't.  Of course, a number of men could have moved it.  I doubt I'll ever understand that occurrence.  Holmes often said the very small details are often more important that the obvious and prominent facts.  Mark it as odd...for now.

There you have it.  The first question of the 13th stone is deferred.  The second question is answered as, in late fall and throughout the winter, Mr. Gann has a view of Manhattan through the barren tree and a distant view of the Statue of Liberty.  The third question of who planted the tree...I believe Mr. Gann had the tree planted in 1942 and endowed it to frame an enigma having meaning.

A brief note regarding the date, October 19, 2016

$

One of 3 dates that was identified in the "2016" (see HERE) series of essays by a combination of numerical and chronological devices and a contemporary fictional movie is the date October 19, 2016.  Because the numbers reflective of the date, 10192016 can be restructured by dropping the '0's and dropping the year (as we do by reducing 9/11/2001 to 9/11) to give us the inverse of 911, that being 119, I offered my thought that 10/19/2016 would include both an acceleration of a great downturn in the stock market and a terrorist attack.  That's reading a lot into simply a date and, other than confluence of circumstance, I do not have the right to paint the character of that date which is otherwise very noteworthy.

BUT...

I like to compare the result of my manipulations to the events in "The Tunnel Thru the Air" to see if, perhaps, the date was one of note.... and perhaps, having a distant hunch, Mr. Gann may have elaborated on that tenuous line.  What do we find on page 119 of TTTTA?  Here's the entire page:


In a single word, panic.

Is there any point otherwise in TTTTA where Robert Gordon was so conflicted?  No, in my opinion.  When in Paris he was near collapse from strain.  With the perceived appearance of Marie, he was frantic to have her supposed note (which turned out an illusion) placed in his pocket translated.  But I do not judge him then in a panic.  I do not recall that even when he was captured by the Allied Enemy that he was in a panic.

Two more observations.  First, this happens in St Louis, presently a center of racial tension.

Second and far more important.  Re-read the last sentence of the last complete paragraph of the above:


....blasted.

Panic and blasted.  I hope, no I pray, I am wrong.  Mr. Gann is not wrong in my experience and only my interpretation can be wrong.  The latter would hardly be novel in my experience as well.

An open invitation to Mr. Ryne Douglas Pearson

This essay is simply a reprise of information already developed and produced in this blog.  Its purpose is to inform Ryne Douglas Pearson of his encoded appearance in WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru The Air" (or TTTTA),  a novel published in 1927.  For those not informed I'll provide for my reader a background on Mr. Douglas' participation in a movie "Knowing" and for Mr. Douglas a background into Mr. Gann and TTTTA.

Mr. Douglas and the movie, "Knowing." Mr. Douglas provided the concept of the 2009 movie "Knowing" and was, undoubtedly, instrumental in designing its production to match his concept.  The plot has a Christian theme of foresight in which an elementary school student has included in a 50-year time capsule a "map" of time.  Upon opening the time capsule in 2009, the map was found to predict the major disasters occurring up to the date the capsule is opened.

Professor Koestler (Nicolas Cage), the primary character, discovers the "map" by subdividing the numbers 0911012996 into 09/11/11...2996 indicating the date and number of persons who perish on 9/11/2001 in the tragic terrorist attack.  Professor Koestler validates the integrity of the map by correlating the dates and number of deaths predicted in the map (again, buried some 50 years prior) to the record of disasters over that 50-year period.

There remained three dates which were yet to occur; October 17, October 18 and October 19.  On the first of those days, 81 persons died, as the map predicted in a plane crash.  On October 18, a subway accident and the number of persons predicted were killed.

The October 19 date did not specify the number to die but had the letters "EE" inverted. Ultimately Koestler investigated and realized the letters were actually "EE" and represented "Everyone else." It was a prediction of the apocalypse, which, in the movie, did occur.

WD Gann and "The Tunnel Thru the Air."  Mr. Gann, a 32nd degree Mason (though I believe he was conferred the highest honor) and a great Christian,  is reputed as one of or the greatest market speculators in the history of the NYSE.  As validation of his ability to predict the market, not just speculate in it, he was interviewed by Richard D. Wyckoff and which appeared in volume 5, number 2, December 1909, page 54 of "The Ticker and Investment Digest." A reproduction of that interview can be found HERE.

In the "Ticker Interview" a representative of Mr. Wyckoff follows Mr. Gann on the floor of the NYSE for twenty-five recorded the 286 trades (both long and short) Mr. Gann undertook.  Of those trades, 264 were for gains and but 22 were for loss.  The "Ticker Interview" recounts additional third party accounts of individual trades that defy statistical probability.  

As appealing and entertaining as "Knowing" proved to be, to me at least and many others, TTTTA is awkward, syrupy, horribly patriotic, inexplicably filled with numbers and Bible verse, apparently, unnecessary to the plot.  When first I read the book in 1974, then a grad student in a stock market operations course, I hadn't an idea why we would be studying such a book.

Now 42 years later, I understand not only the superficial predictions made in TTTA in 1927 and their manifestation, but the encoded predictions Mr. Gann made that have occurred.  In the plain reading, Mr. Gann predicted in 1927 the period of the first stage of the Great Depression, the general period of World War II.  TTTTA's great fictional Battle of New York occurred on July 4, 1932, within four days of the bottom of the 1929 crash; July 8, 1932.

My pivotal discovery in research of TTTTA was the telestic spelling of "6 eeeeee's" in the book's Foreword.  A telestic is a simple encoding device used for centuries.  The author of a writing designs each line of text to end with a letter that, when those last letters are assembled, spell a word or recognizable pattern.  This is the telestic word that I detected:


[Please note that only a first printing of TTTTA will work because it is the only text over which Mr. Gann controlled the exact printing and format.  One can be found HERE.]

Beginning on the 9th line of the Foreword each line of text ends in an 'e.' Such, defies any measure of improbability.  TTTTA has a finite number of lines and, hence, a finite number of last letters of each line.  If a person were to toss a coin six times trying to flip six consecutive heads, the probability is  referred to as a "joint probability" and would be 1/2 X 1/2 X 1/2 X 1/2 X 1/2 X 1/2 or 1/2^6 or 1/64 or 1.6%.  In the case of "6 eeeeee's," the coin would have 26 sides, not 2; the alphabet has 26 letters.  Assuming all letters have the same probability of ending a line, the probability of 6 consecutive lines ending in 'e' would be 1 / 26^6 or 1 in 309 million.  

Of course, this formulation is flawed and I will allow it to be so since a refined computation takes too much space.  Suffice it to say, the probability of the occurrence '6 eeeeee's' is small beyond comprehension.  '6 eeeeee's' is first a warning to the reader that TTTTA is encoded with acrostic and telestic words.  And second, when one realizes TTTTA is an encoded "map of time" the eeeeee's represent an emphasis that the date to which they append is a critical date.

I had long believed the entire text of TTTTA was an encoded "map of time" but hadn't a key to tell me how to configure it as such much less prove its validity.  And then I saw "Knowing" for the second time.  Within a day of seeing Professor Koestler fictionally derive 9/11/01 and 2996, I had assigned dates to the already enumerated lines in the first edition formatted TTTTA.  I found and published what I saw that day in an essay HERE.  What I saw that day is this:


[The above narrative appears on page 68 of the first printing text linked above.]

The date, 11 Sep 01 falls on the 2693rd line of the novel and the 283rd line of the chapter or 2996 dead on 9/11/01.  If you will follow the link to the original essay, you will find it is dated exactly September 11, 2015.  I am unaware whether one might backdate a blog post in Google Blogger.

My formulation of the "WD Gann Map of Time" has gone through many corrections and renditions since 9/11/2015 because my original formulation was flawed.  There were errors.  But that does not minimize what I saw and reported that day.  Currently, the refined spreadsheet is little different from what is seen above.  

TTTTA is a Map of Time just as the fictional Lucinda Embry's page was a similar map; except that Mr. Gann programmed, encoded and published it in 1927.  He encoded his foresight because the critical point in time when his foreknowledge would be necessary is now and he said exactly that on page 82 of TTTTA; he spoke of the "remarkable events" that would occur in the wake of the election of the 266th Pope (Pope Francis elected in 2013).

*****

Mr. Pearson and the movie "Knowing" is prominently important in my unveiling of Mr. Gann's encoded knowledge and predictions.  Without the movie's map of time concept, I would not have uncovered Mr. Gann's encoding of his map.  Mr. Gann knew this in my opinion; he encoded Mr. Pearson's name in TTTTA.

A key to the success of TTTTA's hero, Robert Gordon, is the fictional character General Pearson.  'Pearson' appears 46 times in the plain text wording of TTTTA.  Interestingly, Mr. Ryne Douglas Pearson, born August 15, 1964, was 46 years old when "Knowing" was released on March 20, 2009.  

As well, there is in the plain text wording of TTTTA is the storied Claire Douglass (with 2 letter 'ss'). If one performed a word search of the word "Douglas" with a single 's' one would find it occurring 9 times (times associated with Claire Douglass and once associated with her father Captain Harding Douglass).

Words greater than four letters are troublesome to spell in acrostics or telestics because they become more detectible as they become longer.  Consequently, Pearson and Douglas are spelled in the plain text of the book.  But how would Mr. Gann tell us he is talking about Ryne Douglas Pearson, particularly since we are trying to establish this reference is being made decades before Mr. Pearson is born?

It is then given name Ryne, a very unique name.  As Mr. Gann couldn't spell the words Douglas and Pearson in the acrostics or telestics without detection, he could not spell the word Ryne in the plain text of the book without detection.  So he spelled it as the telestic word you see here:


On the 12202nd line of the novel, the 195th line of the chapter, on page 330, you find 'r' as the last letter followed on consecutive lines thereafter by 'y,''n,' and 'e.' Mr. Gann knew that Mr. Douglas would be integral to the discovery and, I hope, the dissemination of Mr. Gann's predictions of the future.

There are dozens, if not hundreds, of 'circumstances' similar to the above, many of which I have documented in this website.  

Humbly, I ask Mr. Douglas to contact me so that we might collaborate on how his art and my knowledge of Mr. Gann's work might be made available at a time critical to our nation and the world.

Thanks to my few readers for entertaining this reprise of ground already covered, and to Mr. Pearson should he undertake consideration of the above,

Leaders of World War II, perhaps, included in "The Tunnel Thru the Air?"

My conception of WD Gann's bodies of predictions buried in "The Tunnel Thru the Air" (which I have styled a bit melodramatically "Prophecies" as I now consider prophecies as divine rather than mundane) is that he predicted not only isolated events, he predicted great great periods of events.  I perceive 7 great "prophecies" of which the 6th and 7th Prophecies are detailed in this blog.

The 1st "prophecy" in my thinking is the many inventions that even those who partake of milk recognize; the Tel Talk, the noiseless airplane (stealth technology)....  The second prophecy would be that which is generally cited on page 82 of the period of panic and famine from 1930-33; the first stage of the Great Depression.  The third prophecy is WWII is outlined on page 83 as the period 1940-1944 as being another period of trouble for the nation and the world; the general period of WWII.  But those partaking of milk would be in awe and troubled by a man who knows the future and speaks of it.  So, in my opinion, Mr. Gann gave only those general outlines of the 2nd and 3rd prophecies reserving the details for those strong enough for meat.

With that in mind, I finally addressed seeking some of the details (a very laborious task) by listing the key parties and concepts in the fictional war presented in TTTTA with its reflections in then future WWII.  It goes without saying but I will remind new readers, TTTTA was published in 1927 and WWII began a decade later.

I've gone through every person and participant ("Tokyo J-1" isn't a person but its a prominent enigma so there are some subjects of importance that are listed below) appearing from page 281 (the beginning of the fictional war) until the end.  And then, I've searched for keywords "WWII" and that person's name.  For all but one person (Molly Pitcher) found after page 281 up to page 391 (the end of the fictional war) I found a relation to WWII.  By order of first appearance in TTTTA following page 281:

Page 283 General Pearson - Major General George O. Pearson served in many command infantry positions during WWII and continued his distinguished career following WWII.

Page 281 Captain George Cooper - George W. Cooper, rank at the time of WWII not located but retired as a major in 1962.  Joined the Army Air Corp in 1942 as a WWII glider pilot.

Page 283 General Johnson of the Cavalry - General Leon W. Johnson was a 4 star General and Medal of Honor recipient who served as a Lt Col in the Air Force during WWII.  Obviously, he wasn't associated with the cavalry.

Page 283 Admiral Dawson of the Navy - Admiral Oscar Stanly Dawson was an Indian naval admiral who was educated in the U.K. and served the Indian Navy in the 1944-45 Arakan Campaign during WWII.

Page 283 General Marshal of the Infantry - General George Catlett Marshall was an esteemed American General and statesman celebrated by Winston Churchill as the "organizer of victory" and architect of European recovery according to his "Marshall Plan."

Page 287 "Tokyo J-1" carrying 25 planes having collapsible wings - also spelled a noteworthy "Tokio" (a permissible alternate spelling but noteworthy inconsistency), this remains an enigma to me.  I cannot find a plausible reason for what I consider a purposeful mystery.  Isn't a retractible wing plane an invention of the 1960's or so?

Page 302 Molly Pitcher - Actually a Revolutionary War heroine, not WWII.  I expect Mr. Gann gave Mrs. Pitcher a role consistent with his support of women suffrage.

Page 307 Commander Rooker - Major Robert Lee Rooker served in WWII and Korea but seems otherwise distinguished as a General, etc, and appropriately so; his role on page 307 involved a failure in which his command bombed commercial planes of England and caused their entry into the war.

Page 308 allied enemy - Why did WDG believe England would be our enemy?

Page 325 Colonel Charles Manson - Lt Col Charles H. Older, USAAF, participated in massive air battles over Rangoon, Burma during WWII.  Post WWII, Mr. Older presided as judge over the  prosecution of Charles Manson for mass murder in 1970-71.

Page 325 Allied Enemy -  In contrast, during WWII it was the "Allied Forces" or "Allies."

Page 338 - Question-why in some places do we have Allied Enemy in caps and in others allied enemy?

Page 328 Robert Gordon promoted to Supreme Commander Gordon - I'd long thought the "Supreme Commander" title was a bit pompous but most of TTTTA is a bit over the top in our contemporary informal, laid back culture.  I was surprised to find (although on reflection, I'd known this and forgotten it), President Dwight Eisenhower was the "Supreme Commander of Allied Forces" in WWII.  Reading Wikipedia, the term "Supreme Commander" originated in WWII...  correction Wikipedia, it originated in "The Tunnel Thru the Air." Or more properly, Mr. Gann predicted it.

Page 339 General Nagato - Not found in WWII, except that the flagship of the Japanese fleet that attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 was the Nagato.  The Nagato gave the final order to commence the attack on Pearl.  The Nagato was ultimately captured and, post WWII, towed to Easter Islands for study of the effects of atomic bombs on large ships.

Page 345 Captain Morrison - Rear Admiral George Stephen Morrison graduated flight training in 1943 and flew missions in Pacific Theatre for the remainder of WWII.  In 1964 Admiral Morrison was in command of U.S. Naval forces during the Gulf of Tonkin incident wherefrom the limited declaration of war, the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, was enacted to enable President Johnson to wage undeclared war in Vietnam.   Recall, the maiden name of Edna Quin-ton...perhaps we rearrange the syllables to Ton-quin.  Admiral Morrison's son was lead singer for The Doors." I have long considered, based on the above and other facts and circumstances, the "Gulf of Tonkin incident" and related Congressional resolution to be the 4th Prophecy of 7 but have not fully documented the case.

Page 349 December 7, 1931 "surprise attack on Detroit" - Notable in that Pearl Harbor was December 7, 1941 and a surprise attack.  Also interesting, the Pearl Harbor attack commenced at 3:18 a.m. while the fictional Detroit attack began at 3 p.m.; as in the 6th Prophecy, "opposite" times of day, perhaps?  Also, exactly"opposite" as occurred in the 6th Prophecy, Detroit was a victory for the U.S. where Pearl Harbor (and the WTC tragedy) was a tragic defeat.

Page 360 Surprise attack on New York City intercepted on the Tel Talk -  This is the beginning marker of the attack on the WTC proven in the 6th Prophecy.  The details will not be recounted here but the page on which the tale of the 6th Prophecy begins is noteworthy.

Page 371 "1933 to 1982 would be forth-nine years of jubilee" - This quotation would seem to contradict page 83 which outlines 1940-44 as a period of trouble for the nation and world.  It remains an enigma.  My thoughts are, if Biblical prophecy mechanics work, then it would be impossible for Mr. Gann's calculations on those pages work.  Hence, he goes through the mechanics for illustration and make a purposeful error to maintain the theme of the fictional war.  I have not gone through the calculations as I should but I expect he adopted the "wrong beginning."

*****

I did not list Edna or Walter Kennelworth or Robert Gordon because they were characters in advance of the fictional war.  And because, their names are associated with medieval or other events; the Kenilworth Castle, Sir Robert Gordon First Baronet of Nova Scotia....  I did list Supreme Commander Gordon because the title originated, according to Wikipedia, with WWII.

Except for Molly Pitcher, a Revolutionary War heroine who may have been included to represent participation by women in war, we find a personal relation between each person associated with the fictional war in TTTTA and World War II.  Each of the major military figures presented in the fictional war (generals, admirals, etc.) had their name reflection in the actual World War II.  Wouldn't you think there would be just one person of rank in the fictional war that would not to have participated in World War II and been of that rank or have achieved it later?  Just one?

[Note: before correction this morning, 11/25, I had double counted General Pearson.]

The first 5 persons above plus Col. Charles Manson would be 6 out of 6 were of their rank in TTTTA during WWII or later achieved that rank.  Include the "Supreme Commander" title that originated in WWII for the person in charge of all Allied Forces (Robert Gordon in the fictional war and Dwight Eisenhower in the actual WWII) and you have 7.  Other persons are excluded from the count as their characters are readily identified with the purpose of their appearance (Molly Pitcher is there only to represent women in the military, Captain Rooker only to represent screw ups that cause wars as in the sinking of the RMS Lusitania or the Gulf of Tonkin incident).

Just coincidence?

On the nature of "Rossups" (proof of the concept documented in real time)

I call them "Rossups" to lighten moments with my clients when I am wrong or they are wrong.

In yesterday's essay, I double counted General Pearson and inferred the "first 6" personnas mentioned in the fictional war were actual participants in WWII.  As I re read it this morning and discovered and corrected the error the '6 out of 6' becomes '5 out of 5.' That hardly reduces my conclusion that such was not coincidence and is bolstered by the inferred "Supreme Commander" prediction.  Mr. Gann used the "Supreme Commander" title before it was ever used in any war.  It was first used, if you believe Wikipedia (sometimes problematic) in WWII.

But, on the nature of "Rossups" causing bad things.

Was it not the RMS Lusitania sinking by German submarines in 1915 a major point causing the U.S. to support the European allies in WWI and the subsequent entry into that theater?

Do I not recall a Japanese naval officer having said the Pearl Harbor attack would only serve to "awaken a sleeping giant?" Well, refreshing my memory, that was a line in a movie according to (aghast) Wikipedia.  The quote has been attributed to Naval Marshal Isoroku Yamato in Tora! Tora! Tora!

Continuing the thought great Rossups and Pearl Harbor we source from Wikipedia:


How about another WWI Tossup (the below excerpt from HERE)?


[Caution, I have not taken the time to verify the above but that story sounds authentic.  I trust anything printed on the Internet.....]

Perhaps the Captain Rooker in TTTTA who's command accidentally destroyed commercial airplanes and brought Britain into the war was so intended to cause us to reflect on the errors that cause great tragedies.  Or perhaps the 'intended errors' such as some infer such to the Gulf of Tonkin incident which provided the rally cry of those who took the U.S. into the Vietnam War...recall, Edna Quinton might have been a coded link to Ton-quin....  Plausible but I do not know how to provide the dispositive case.

So, all the above makes you wonder.  The U.S. is operating in Syria at the same time Russia and Iran is operating in Syria.  U.S. is supporting anti Assayd rebels while Russia is bombing the, while a NATO ally, Syria(1), is shooting down Russian jets, while ISIS (I think) is shooting down Russian helicopters...  Whew.

I think the moment is right for a classic Rossup.

Jim Ross

(1) Proof of the concept of "Rossup" a friend informs me (which I knew but rossedup) it was the NATO ally Turkey that shot down the Russian jet....  Now you can take anything I say to the bank.

The '23 enigma,' a discovery in theory and an omission

$
0

As typical, I awoke well before dawn and contemplated the question which was foremost in my thoughts the night before.  In this case it was how the "WD Gann Map of Time" (MOT) would tell me where.  As the attendant reader may recall, I discovered the MOT based upon a similar map of time that was discovered in the contemporary movie "Knowing." Professor Koestler (Nicholas Cage) discovers in a page of numbers written 50 years previous and enclosed in a time capsule that same day, that the numbers predicted every disaster (date and number of persons who perished) over those 50 years the page was sequestered.  After correlating every date with this fictional 'map,' the Professor had 8 numbers left over between every date that he couldn't explain.

For the first time or infrequent reader, some background.  WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru The Air" has been with us for 88 years (1927 to 2015) and for the last year I began to believe it was a "map" of some sort; I was searching for coded cycles with which to time the market.  I'd reduced the entire book to numbered pages and found encoded acrostic and telestic messages that provided un-orchestrated thoughts.

And then, watching "Knowing" the verification of the MOT was before me; the Professor subdivides the number 0911012996 into 09/11/01 2996.  I placed dates on the already line enumerated TTTTA text and went to the date 9/11/01 and 2996 was the sum of the cumulative line number and the chapter line number (2698+283).  This is what I saw:


You will find the above first blogged in my post dated on this blog on September 12, 2015.  It was wrong but that is what I saw.  After two months of correcting errors in the consistency of how I had assigned blank vertical line spaces, it is only 1 number off from 2996...someday I'll find that 1 line error.

What was missing in Professor Koestler's understanding of his 'map' was where would the remaining 3 dates take place.  The remaining dates were October 17, 18 and 19.  He then 'chanced' to discover the unexplained 8 digits between the dates were Cartesian coordinates (GPS).  He knew where, when and how many of the last 3 disasters.

Similarly, I had the date of 9/11 and the number of deaths, but I didn't have the 'where.'  And that was the question I pondered before falling asleep last night and that was the answer, or theory of the answer I have this Thanksgiving morning, 11/26/2015.  It borrows from all of the major theories that I've proposed concerning TTTTA and my visits to Green-Wood Cemetery; the MOT, the WD Gann Memorial Triangle, the WD Gann Gravestone Geometry, Robert Gordon's 7 days, Luo Clement as a pen name of Mr. Gann, the Einstein Editor as a pen name of Mr. Gann...  All of those theories bear on the insight I may have had this morning.

In these times I like to step back and challenge myself, 'Is this the 23 enigma?' The 23 enigma is well explained in Wikipedia; simply, all incidents and events are related to the number 23.  Its critics sound a chorus that sounds like "the mind can create truth in anything it sees." The sphere of this philosophy is great.  We find Rene Descartes (a cameo appearance in TTTTA as Dr. Descartes) in his "Meditations" contemplating the use of our senses to discern aspects of reality.  We find contemporary physicist, Arthur Koestler ("The Challenge of Chance," 1974), seeking to find randomness despite a great telepathic experiment and yet, disturbingly and ultimately, finding something, perhaps different.  Hmmm, Professor Arthur Koestler versus the fictional Professor John Koestler.  Merely a random occurrence concocted by my mind seeking 23?

The point; is this new discovery actually my mind creating what it wants to think exists rather than what actually exists.  The fictional character, Professor Phil Beckman challenges Professor Koestler over the latter's perception of a 'map' out of a page of number:


I'm comforted that, I cannot be delusional if I recognize my theory seems incredible.  The 23 enigma reminds me of the caution I need to exercise in going down this path.

So, I'm at Sherlock's point of having the 'attic' of information, the pattern of the 'crime,' and a working theory of the resolution.  Now I need to use the data I have to see if those facts and the theory will arrive at the end that is expected.  In our case, one such end would be the prediction of a 2/22/2016 San Francisco earthquake based upon the 1848 Marlborough earthquake and the 1906 San Francisco earthquake.  If my theory is correct, I should be able to use a theorized joint measure of spacetime....namely both space AND time denominated in miles (just as you find in Robert Gordon's 7 days) to predict 2/22/2016 in San Francisco to reach the anticipated end.

There is only one troubling omission of a critical element of all that I have learned from TTTTA that must be in my final solution; the diatonic scale.  Having recently studied Gurdjieff and his prescription that we can and should find the application of natural law of the diatonic mathematics in all things.

And then I consider; I think I've discovered something this day of 11/26/2015.  That is 1+1 / 2+6 / 2+0+1+5 or 2 / 8 / 8.  And we might think 2 X 8 X 8 = 128.  And what do we find on page 128 of TTTTA?  We find two numbers that can produce each of the 7 diatonic tones:


You can find my discussion of the derivation of the notes of the octave from the above two numbers above HERE.

And, as if to drive the point home for those in doubt, the next page, 129, contains a rendition of John Clifford's (a Mason)  "The Anvil of God's Word:"


Pythagoras, as incorrect legend goes, discovers the mathematics of the diatonic scale from the varying weights of hammers impacting the enduring anvil (the Bible).  As if to provide proof of his intent, you might compare the above text to the actual poem.  The above text has been changed by Mr. Gann; it is marginally different from what John Clifford wrote.  And I found it was changed in order to spell an acrostic word, 'LATO':


And what does LATO, in all caps, mean to anyone?  Dredging up my months old research from recall, Lato was believed to have been a small city of antiquity on the Greek Island of Samos where Pythagoras traveled to obtain the great knowledge of the ancients.

Oh my gosh, I forgot one last aspect of the number 128 derived above.  It is lower 'c' or 'do' (as in do-re-me-fa-sol-la-si-do).  Remember, the octaves are a mathematics of doubling.  You likely remember 'c' as the number 256 which is twice 128.  Page 128, the octave, 24million copies of the Bible and 8million copies.....can't make this stuff up...but WD Gann did.

I believe the theory I received this morning will, ultimately, include the diatonic scale as the great Gurdjiff...and the great WD Gann would tell me it will.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving...consider a family reading from excerpts of the diaries of William Bradford,

More on 1848 and its reflection in 2016

$
0
0

In studying the past which, as Mr. Gann explicitly states will be reflected in the future, I have been studying 1848 closely.   Previous essays followed the European "Spring of Nations" or "Year of Revolution" and concluded the reflection would occur in both Europe and the U.S.  Also noted was the "Great Famine" that stretched from 1845 to 1850 or so and killed more than 1 million Irish in that small culture and killed many, as well, in Europe.  The "Great Famine" was caused by the potato crop failure, in turn caused by an infection of the potato crop.

Now I find that there was a great market decline and failure in business in Europe occasioned by those years of famine and hardship and the continent wide revolutions and attendant assaults on the wealthy; aristocracy, business owners and anyone with wealth.  Are we seeing that now?  [Recall 2016 stretches from mid 2015 to mid 2016.]

And I find that there was a great Cholera outbreak in Europe beginning in early 1848.  Then, as there occurred a great immigration of Irish into New York City and New Orleans caused by the European revolutions, famine and outbreak of Cholera....well, there was a great outbreak of Cholera in New York City and New Orleans beginning in the fall of 1848.  The fall of 1848 is a date that correlates on the MOT with the '6 eeeeee's' and a span of several days (March 3 to March 19) in March 2016:


I interpret this to mean that there will be an outbreak of some disease in March of 2016 with a resulting great number of deaths.  Perhaps it will be a result of bio-terror or simply the diseases brought from South America by illegal immigrants.  These days, just a single death via the Ebola became a major panic in 2014 in the U.S.  What if it were 10, or 100 or 10,000, heaven forbid?  In these days of instant information, what would be the result?

I'm finding out new things every day and changing my forecasts accordingly.

Rumination on a paragraph in the "Ticker Interview"

$

What a powerful statement on vibration:


As if I were the first to notice; its great when you get older because you can experience a 'new' epiphany ever day out of subject matter to which you previously expressed wonder.

Noteworthy:
  • Each stock in a grouping has a unique rate of vibration.
  • Stocks resolve to a periodic motion following any impulse that dislodges them.
  • A stock's properties (vibration, periodicity, reaction to an impulse) 'recur' just as its own weight of vibration increases...the periodic table of elements.
I've suggested Mr. Gann was a world class physicist...an Einstein class physicist; perhaps the latter's superior.  I've suggested Mr. Gann was the 1920's Einstein Essay Prize Editor who moderated that contest appearing in a half dozen issues of Scientific American.  The link to that series of articles is a singular September 18, 1920 advertisement in "The Publishers Weekly:"



That same  book announced in the opening leafs of Luo Clement's (who is a non de plume of WD Gann as I have claimed) "The Ancient Science of Numbers" named "Numerical Vibrations" which there isn't any record of having been written...9 years later someone is trying to purchase a copy.  


And that same day we find the mysterious "Einstein Editor" writing in his essay of that date that a perfectly serviceable calculation of Einsteinium special relativity might be had out of the use of Descartisian coordinates and Euclidian geometry:




At least, as a finite mathematician (CPA) I claim my synopsis might be had from the above by virtue of our existing in a Minkowski gravity well (earth's gravitational field) where time is not altered by acceleration, gravitation.

Now flip back to the Ticker Interview quote.  Realizing (I realize, others are less 'out there' with me) we are dealing with a physicist who is relating physical (physics) natural law to the stock market, we need to be relating rules of the periodic table to stocks according to their weight and class-inferred characteristics.  The story of the development of the periodic table (Lavoisier, Newlands and Mendeleev) is an incredible one of "deductive science;" ah Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.  Elements can be classified by their weights and according to the class of their mathematic weight each element in a class exhibits characteristics of their class.

Okay, okay, you get all that from the plain reading the paragraphs in the Ticker Interview following the opening citation.  But what you don't get is the connection to Luo Clement (aka WD Gann, IMO) or the level of application of physics.  Most of all you don't get the implication; a stock's "atomic weight" and its classification on the periodic table of stock elements is its "Numerical Vibration...which was never published...explicitly.  

Where is this going?  I've predicted a yet to occur earthquake based on the WD Gann Map of Time (MOT) its reflection of the earthquakes that occurred in 1848 and 1906.  At this point, the prediction is based on a device that we (I) perceive that a person left in a book; the MOT.  The prediction, as stated, depends on a subjective perception (my perception) of another person's encoded device.  The device is the problem.  Did I interpret the device correctly?

Moreover, what is the device based upon?  Well, it must be a result of either WD Gann's mistaken understanding of 'nature law,' my misunderstanding of his understanding, or....it must be based on real natural law and will therefore manifest.  The device is not "the thing." "The thing" is the natural law applied to time and stocks should be as real as the prediction of the boiling point of hydrogen.  If the device is correct, then there should be a mathematical formulation that is "the thing."

So, how do we categorize stocks similar to the categorization of elements?  Where do we find the atomic weight, if you will, of a stock or a nation or a....person?  I'd submit we find the means to  classify all things according to characteristics they will exhibit is the methodology we find in "The Ancient Science of Numbers."  It all 'hangs' together;  WD Gann, Luo Clement, the Einstein Editor and the understanding of how stocks vary according to 'natural law.'

The stock market was simply the laboratory of this great physicist, WD Gann.  From his "Master Course for Stocks."


I had a smile on my face the other day when a reader suggested 'my' prognosis for dire problems in the stock market comported with WD Gann's "The Financial Table" which, as he accepted was based on the North Node.  It was as if the device, "The Financial Table" was the acid test of natural law.  Not mocking him in any way because, if anything is certain, I don't know.  But so it should be understood, the MOT isn't anything other than a man made device interpreted by a person who doesn't know any better (knows a hell of a lot less in fact).  The MOT, should it be found valid by time and events, is twice removed, from natural law; WD Gann's formulation and my interpretation.  The search cannot stop at the MOT.

If the personal interpretation of the man-created device MOT proves valid (predictions of the year 2016), then there must be a mathematic natural law that is the source of the prediction.  Acrostically encoded on page 36 (interesting number, 36 at 1/10th of the circle) of "The Tunnel Thru The Air:"


I offer "Number is the if and why of all things." I can envision Pythagoras nodding his head in approval.  Or is it delusion; the "23 enigma?"

The '23 enigma,' common sense and the abyss

$
0

Last night a concerned reader, the 'noxious one' previously introduced, was concerned for my emotional well being and took time out from his busy intellectual day to reach out to me.  If you might recall, he was the insightful one that had dismissed the mis enumerated Chapter XXXIX, "Robert Gordon's 7 Days," as having value because there were not any dollar signs in it.....even though Mr. Gann elevates the 7 days to the level of understanding why Jesus rose on the their day (from the Foreword of "The Tunnel Thru the Air by WD Gann"):


You remember him; he was the one incapable of understanding the joint probability of the '6 eeeeee's' in which 6 consecutive e's ending a line have a prohibitively small probability of occurring in a text having a finite population of 15,340 consecutive and ordered lines.  A statistical probability 101 problem that, apparently, escaped the net of his superior knowledge.

Moreover, the noxious one was pleased that I'd found the presence to consider my delusions as discussed in the essay concerning the '23 enigma.' Perhaps it proved to himself that I'd admitted my error in my investigations of the works of WD Gann and my imaginings.  Perhaps it proved to himself his eminence in cautioning me not to go down the 'rabbit hole' for fear that I would befall of the waste of my time, a valuable commodity, in search of that which he, the noxious one, had already proven worthless.

Maybe so, maybe not.  I'll decline accepting the testimony of one who ignores the subject WD Gann point blank who told his audience that the greatest lesson, the lesson of life over death, is in Chapter XXXIX.  It seems silly that he should follow my investigation given that his intent seems only to find  fault rather than to 'consider' whatever value there might be in this blog.  Talk about a rabbit hole.

As well the noxious one expressed his surprise that I'd so relate my investigation to the deductive science of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle; that common sense properly attributable to a  CPA should be so lacking in me.  [Actually, 'common sense' is quite subjective.  I prefer, as a CPA, 'mathematic sense' because it connotes the universal and objective truth of mathematic proof...but that's me.]  Again, the noxious one expounding, just as he did with the concept of joint probability, about something with which he seemingly hasn't the first 'clue' of meaning (the fine definition of "deductive science" outlined by Sherlock Holmes).  Proverbs 17:28:


It boils down to the contemporary thought that one not knowing of what he speaks should not open his mouth and "remove all doubt." It is with this thought that I open Drudgereport and find:


Ah, man so involved in his self proclaimed greatness that he can save the world without the intervention of Grace.  That which was created without the involvement of man can be destroyed by the greatness of Man and saved by the greatness of Man. Sadly, the "Scientific American" recently led with its cover banner "How Man Conquered the World." Such hubris and self promotion.  Whose is the greater delusion?  Where is Rabi Cahn and Isaiah 9:10 when I need him?

As I'm contemplating this I'm also watching my alma mater in their annual struggle with its arch but respected football rival and great university of Thomas Jefferson, the University of Virginia.  And then I realize that, on the line is the second longest present bowl streak of any University, and the longest of any coach, that of the retiring Frank Beamer and 23 wins.  As if to mock me, there's that 23number about which only Friday I'd written.  As I try to read the thoughts of the great WD Gann, is it as if those thoughts are looking back at me?  Two quotes from Freidrich Nietzsche:

And when you gaze long into an abyss the abyss also gazes into you. 

and

The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher 
esteem those who think alike than those who think differently.

Is the abyss looking back?  Can one be delusional when he considers the possibility of his delusion?  And what of thinking differently?  Is the one considering another's thoughts outside the likeness of his own the bigoted and closed minded in condemning the one who's thoughts diverge from the norm?

I'm entirely comfortable that I am not wasting my life on a rabbit hole of delusion because I've learned and experienced from WDG more than I thought I'd ever experience...period.  If the 'answer' is never mine, I'm still far better for the journey.  As for the 'noxious one,' Mr. Gann warned us many times of that type of person; he was Robert's doubting father, Robert's mocking and hateful brother, he was the "butters-in" found on pages 48 and 49 of TTTTA:


So it is that I believe I've found the "Older hand" in WDG and, while he teaches in enigma, I'll beat my head against that headboard until the 'game afoot' is resolved or I've failed.  I'll be the better for it either way.

Alas, I have the 'judge' who wastes his time reading my thoughts and advises me not, for my good, but for his self aggrandizement.  To him I would say (and have said), that his is not to assume the eminence and judge but to read and simply 'consider' as the great Lord Byron said.  To judge presents the argument of Socrates in "Apology." Socrates realized his wisdom among men because the great experts among men readily expressed their grasp of the greatest knowledge and wisdom; something reserved only to God.  Socrates knew he was the wisest among men because he alone among them knew that he did not know that which was reserved for God.  

How does this all end?  Virginia Tech won a close one against arch rival, the great University of Virginia, to give retiring soon-to-be Hall of Fame Coach, Frank Beamer, his record of consecutive bowl appearances by a head coach, and preserve VT's second longest consecutive bowl streak (behind Florida State) at 23.  And what was the score?

23 - 20

And my birth month and date?  February 21 or reduced and concatenated to...23.

Sometimes, the abyss looks back?

Offered for your consideration and not as context for argument and self promotion.  Better yourself for quiet consideration and not for the crude diminishing of others.

When ignorance is brilliance

Better get another cup of coffee.  And brew another pot.

This essay will cover philosophy such as a finite mathematician poorly comprehends and relates.  I spent all day yesterday firing up Cycletimer to work diligently market mathematics.  But I spent last night, when I should have been sleeping, considering my most recent row with the "noxious one." For those looking for the mathematic secret, its not here.

Only infrequently over the last several months have I felt my time was wasted in studying any aspect of WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air" or other mysteries surrounding his life.  Everything seems to have a meaning that might not present itself immediately but ultimately does.  Perhaps you'd say that a person that detects meaning in a number is down the path of the '23 enigma' and sees in everything that which he wants to see.  I understand that and routinely examine myself in that regard.  Not that withstanding, what might  be the 'purpose' of the 'noxious one' presuming his importance in my work?  I do fathom meaning in his involvement if for only that it requires that I summarize and examine my findings.  And maybe more.

How'd I first encounter the noxious one?  He first astounded me with his ignorance when he emailed me in private to tell me that the curiously miss-enumerated Chapter XXXIX "Robert Gordon's 7 Days" was irrelevant because he had read it and there weren't any dollars in it.  Mr. Gann tells us, point blank, in the Foreword that if you understand RG's 7 days, you will understand why Jesus rose on the third day and rested (minor distinction, God rested) after 6 days, you will have overcome death and you will have gained understanding.  Goodness, there aren't any dollar signs in Chapter XXXIX?  Here's the excerpt from the Foreword:


How do you exceed that level of 'insightlessness'?

Well, he did.  I find six consecutive lines ending in the letter 'e' in the first paragraph of the Foreword.  In a finite population of 15340 lines that's 15340 letters; its a very simple problem in joint probability.  The probability of 6 consecutive lines would be 1 divided by 26 to the 6th power because there are 26 letters in the alphabet and 6 consecutive positions to be filled by a letter (actually, its less because 'e' is a very popular letter to end a word).  However you configure it, the statistical probability is between say 1 in 150 million and 1 in 300 million.  The noxious one again displays both his ignorance and his greater hubris when he said you can spell anything you want with 15340 letters.

So what purpose do I find in the noxious one's stalking me with his blissful void of knowledge, and his perceived self importance (hmmm, some self reflection on my part perhaps in order)?

The purpose...  The first two encounters were the noxious one confronting and doubting two contrivances of a man.  First, Mr. Gann created the incredible geometry of time and space exhibited in 'Robert Gordon's 7 days' and as relayed in my many essays on the subject.  RG traveled to 22 places, destroying buildings of the enemies of the U.S. and rewarding allies.  He traveled 33K miles as the crow flies but  traveled 18K miles east/west and 18K miles north/south.  Interesting, east/west representing time and north/south representing space.  If considered a triangle, you have two equal sides in the 33k, 18k, 18k sides; an isosceles triangle.  There is meaning there, but that's not the point.  The point is it is contrivance of a man...not an accident....not a miracle.  [Alas, no dollar signs.]

Here's an early edition of my "RGs 7 days" spreadsheet that you'll find developed in other essays:


A second encounter; the "six e's" as discussed above.  Again, a contrivance of a man, WD Gann.  Not a miracle.  Some asked me, "...is Mr. Gann's acrostic telestic encoding of TTTTA like the Bible Code." No, not at all.  Recalling a physicist considering the Bible Code in the first of those books, his view was that the Bible Code, should it be found valid, could not have been constructed without an entity having knowledge of all things that exist, existed, will exist through all of time; simultaneously.  The Bible Code, if valid, is a miracle that is beyond man's consciousness.  In contrast, 'six e's" are a device that a man created.  A very simple one at that.  It is one of the simplest methods of encryption, but one which makes the reader work to discover intent.  A simple example:


Robert Gordon is writing his first letter to Marie Stanton (page 21), expressing his love, and we find in the acrostic wording "Yipei" which I considered "Yippee" or something like that.  Can you imagine the stern and serious WD Gann (as reflected in Robert Gordon) emoting "Yippee?" An acrostic amplifying the plain worded narrative.

Okay, a little thin.  Another example but with far more gravity, err, gravitas:


You find on separate pages, spaced exactly 80 vertical lines apart, the words "Tao,""to" and "WAR." Tao means "Path." We have "Path to WAR." To boot, they span page 69 which is the incredible discussion of Jonah wherein it is recounted that no sign shall be given but for the sign of Jonah.  And then, when I renumbered TTTTA and added dates, I find that "Tao" falls on the date;  9  / 11 / 2001 and the number of deaths on that day, 2996.  In my interpretation, 9/11/2001 is the "path to war." And it was.

The acrostics are a contrivance of man.  What is the subject matter of that second example?  Is it a demonstration of a man's understanding of the predetermined nature of all things.  That a man could compute the future and then thinly encode it into a book some 64 years before its occurrence?

The noxious one is causing me to reconsider the enormity of these thoughts...and this finite accountant finds them quite so.

Here's the latest kerfuffle.  The noxious one claims that he is embarrassed that an accountant, normally possessed of common sense, would offer the theory that there is a triangle formed of 12, and possibly 13, gravestones that Mr. Gann created.  I don't have an answer.  I have considered how Mr. Gann might have created a geometry out of 12 or 13 gravestones.  I just don't know.  But it exists.  You can't see it on the ground but you can sense its existence.  Here it is from Google Earth:


[Note; the apex of the triangle above is the hypothetical location of the 13th stone at the base of the "Great Tree."]

On my first trip to Green-Wood Cemetery on June 21, 2015, I didn't see the above.  I did notice that stone #3, which is Mr. Gann's stone, was aligned with several other stones and that those several stones were misaligned with the stones behind them.  When I pulled the Google Earth satellite shot, I could see the alignment of 7 stones (stones 1-7 above) in the back row, then, a row of 3 stones (stones 8, 9 and 10) before that line, and another line of 2 stones (11 and 12).  I could also see in the satellite shot that all of those alignments were contrary to any other stones surrounding the triangle.  So, I had to go back to Green-Wood Cemetery and confirm the parallel alignments of the 3 rows which I did on August 2, 2015.  And then I had to go back and confirm the existence of a 13th stone under the "Great Tree" and the endowment of the "Great Tree" by, prospectively, WD Gann.  I did that on November 15, 2015.  [The 13th stone remains under investigation, but I like the scenario at present.]

The above photo shows the dissimilarity of 12 of the 13 stones from the surrounding stone alignments.  I've looked at every stone around those 12 stones visible above, both on the ground and from the satellite photos.  The 12 stones are unique among their surroundings and bounded by them.  And I've compared the Green-Wood Cemetery map shown below to the actual placements; the placements are not correct.  There are major differences.  Below are those evaluations:


The left pane above shows the stones surrounding the triangle and their clearly divergent orientation. The stones have listed on them their plot number.  The pane on the right is the computer map that is printed at the Green-Wood Cemetery office also contains the plot numbers.  The orientation on the left, the numerical sequencing of the plots does not comport with the map on the right.  They aren't even close.

The triangle, based on my investigation, is proof that it exists.  It is 'prima facie.' You can see it, you can see the alignment of the faces of the stones and you can see its boundaries.  The only question is did Mr. Gann, similar to how he contrived the acrostic and telestic encoding and the 'six e's,' contrive the triangle?  Did he purchase all the lots and/or otherwise conspire with fellow Masons (this is the Masonic section 129 of Green-Wood Cemetery), to plan their final rest to create a triangle.  Consider:

  
We find on the great tree an emblem inscribed "E1942." My interpretation, the tree was endowed in 1942, the year in which WD Gann purchased plot 37747 and the year in which Sadie Gann was interred there.  So, yes, there is evidence that Mr. Gann, at a minimum, contrived the "Great Tree" that blocks his grave's view...at least during the spring and summer...of the Manhattan Financial District.  But my attempts to prove he purchased the 12 or 13 plots are unrewarded.  I purchased Green-Wood Cemetery Research Department time to research many of the plots comprising the triangle...it seems they were not purchased by the same person and were purchased over many years.  Generally, they were purchased by the people interred there.  Not a surprise, but not an answer to how the 'prima facie' triangle was created.  [I have given it one last try as you see HERE.]

So, the brilliance of Mr. Noxious One; where ignorance becomes brilliance.  He says "If you, Mr. Accountant,  have so much common sense, how do you explain the creation of a triangle out of gravestones that were purchased over a period of decades?" I give him too much credit for the articulation of the question because, well, the guy has a hard time expressing himself.  But I get the point.  In fact, I got the point long before he posed it.

The answer is, "I don't know.  But its there."

He would say its random and "You wrong Mr. No Common Sense Accountant." I say, "I don't know."

The noxious one forces us to consider; the 'six e's' are there and were man contrived, the acrostics/telestics are there and were man contrived....but the triangle is there but....


Consider.

Additional proof of the WD Gann Map of Time?

$
0
0
"WD Gann's Map of Time" (MOT) evolved from a listing of every line in "The Tunnel Thru the Air," then an enumeration of those lines, and then the addition of dates to every line.  A preliminary proof of the validity of the MOT is that the date, 9/11/2001 correlates with the number of innocent deaths that occurred on that tragic day, that being 2,977 deaths (2693+283=2976, 1 off, below):



As a coincidence, I discovered the above on 9/11/2015 based on a fictional movie, "Knowing," in which that same date and number of deaths were the key to a "map" that is similar to but far simpler than the MOT.  I published my finding on 9/12/2015 in an essay on this blog.  About coincidence,  what was the exchange between Mycroft and Sherlock regarding 'coincidence' in the contemporary reflection of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Sign of Three?"



So, as a happy diversion from my study of what four dimensional geometries define the markets (actually I'm again studying trig this morning) I took a look at the relation of the time elapsed in TTTTA versus the number of lines of the book (as I've currently defined their counting):


The relation between the number of lines and the days that elapsed (the first day in the book is 6/9/1906 and the last day is 8/30/1932) in TTTTA is within 1.4 thousandths of the first recognizable iteration of Phi (1.60).  In conversation with a self respected expert on astrology and WD Gann, that expert told me that Mr. Gann was very selfish because he never gave up his great secret knowledge about, principally among other things, Phi and Fibonacci.  No, the truth is Mr. Gann did not give up his knowledge to those 'swine' who do not seek for themselves.  After all, do not throw pearls before swine.  The 'expert' was just too lazy to 'ask', 'seek' and 'find.' Hmmm, the numbers of year's that Mr. Gann lived; 77 years.  Mathew 7:7, 'ask,''seek,''knock' or 'ask.' Wondrous coincidence.

So, according to Mr. Gann its pretty clear time and lines are correlated by Phi, for otherwise the burden would seem to be on the denier to prove the significance of the tiny 1.4 thousandths.  Is the number of lines in TTTTA that Mr. Gann intends us to find the early iteration of Phi, 1.600000, or the refined iteration often thought of a 1.618....?  On the right side of the above insert, the difference between 15,326 lines at 1.60 and 15,499 lines at 1.618?

Well, I have 15,340 lines so the MOT, as it presently stands, is very close to Phi, 1.6000.  And, 15340 near perfectly comports with the 168-cycle which, in turn, perfectly comports with 1/15th of the Biblical "Great Year" of 2,520 years, which perfectly comports with John Dee's philosopher's stone number of 252.  [Who is John Dee?  John Dee is cited in the acrostic/telestic encoding of TTTTA 45 times; he was 19th century Queen Elizabeth I's court scientist, mathematician, alchemist and a great friend and mentor of Lord Francis Bacon.  He is a major thinker in Mr. Gann's cosmology in my opinion.  Hmmm, Mr. Gann was born 252 years following the death of Lord Francis Bacon in 1626.  No, double that hmmmm.]

I take it that Phi is additional evidence that the number of lines Mr. Gann wanted someone to enumerate in TTTTA, and thus create the MOT, is 15,340 lines.  

I find it immensely noteworthy that Mr. Gann chose to relate time (the difference between the beginning and ends dates in TTTTA) to space (the number of lines in TTTTA) by Phi.  I doubt he wholly intended a simple two-dimensional interpretation, such as that which is attributed to reactionary market waves, but, rather, the relation projected into higher dimensions of time and space.  Context for further research.

The 13th stone or the "Great Tree" or the location of the next 'great event' in NYC?

$
0

Is it the mysterious stone next to the "Great Tree" that obscures the view of Lower Manhattan from WD Gann's grave or is it the "Great Tree," itself.  Or neither.  Or an indication of the next great event in the life of NYC?  On my third visit to Green-Wood Cemetery, I took GPS coordinates for both the hypothetical 13th stone and the "Great Tree." This is a long one.

On my first visit to WD Gann's grave on June 21, 2015, I sensed the perfect alignment of a row of stones that were facing just as his while the stones behind his and on the hill to the left and right were not so aligned.  When I identified those stones in Google Earth, I noticed the stones in front of that line of stones (there were 7 stones aligned that I name 1 through 7) were also aligned. Stones 1, 11 and 7 formed a triangle perfect right triangle:


Left above is an isosceles triangle formed of stones 1-7-11 of the 12 stones and on the right is a diamond comprised of back to back isosceles triangles.  I've proven the map of those triangles and they're pretty darn close to perfect.  The 12 stones and component triangles they form are what I've named the "WD Gann Gravestone Geometry" or GGG.

The triangle is bounded by stones that are misaligned relative to the orientation of the 12 stones of the GGG.  Below insert left you will see yellow, green and orange arrows that are stones that are misaligned with the enumerated 12 stones of the GGG; they are boundaries between the 12 stones and all others in this vicinity of Green-Wood Cemetery (GWC).  The GGG has very little relation to the map of section 129 (Mason's section) based on the map at the bottom right of the following insert.


I've thought there was a 13th which is located, hypothetically, at the apex of the insert above right.  The green lines forming the triangle reach an apex where I believed the stone that is right of the Great Tree facing from Mr. Gann grave towards the Great Tree.  I was wrong.

I visited GWC twice since that first visit and based on the second visit (August 2, 2015), I formulated the "13th stone" theory.  Obviously I knew I had to visit again and did so on November 15, 2015.

On that third visit I had my daughter and son-in-law with me (errr, I was traveling with them) and I tried to keep the time to a minimum for their benefit.  Among other investigations, I took and screen captured 14 GPS readings; one for stones 1-12, one for stone 13 and, at my daughter's behest, one more at the trunk of the "Great Tree." Keep in mind, that small coin type medallion is about 7 feet off the ground and is inscribed "E1942." My interpretation, an endowment was gifted in 1942 for the care of, at least, that tree.  WD Gann purchased lot 37747 for Sadie Gann's internment in 1942.  Here's the tree and GPS coordinates:

Of course, the hypothetical 13th GPS reading I took was the 13th stone that is about 3 feet to the side of the "Great  Tree." The hypothetical 13th stone cannot be seen under the tree from Google Earth just as Lower Manhattan cannot be seen from Mr. Gann's grave...the "Great Tree" is truly magnificent.  Here's the mysterious hypothetical 13th stone and GPS shot that day.  Interestingly, notice the stone has been moved sideways, askant of its base:


We have a problem.  The 13th stone lies visibly outside the location where I'd hypothetically plotted the location of the 13th stone.  The blue vectors at the top of the triangle in the below insert (left) is where I thought the 13th stone would be.


But the GPS coordinates I took on November 15 simply did not comport with the triangle that is fitted to gravestones 1-7 and hypothetical 13 (left above).  The GPS measurements taken from my cell aren't the same as the measurements from Google Earth.  They are different by several feet; I would expect that difference to apply, proportionately to every measurement taken.

So, the measurements of the two systems aren't the same, at least the cell phone measurements must be consistent amongst those taken on November 15.  In the right frame of the above insert plotting of stones 1-7-13 doesn't  give me a recognizable triangle (sides of 17.5, 25 and 26.8 yards).  Not isosceles, not right, not equilateral.  The hypothetical  13th stone seems invalid.

What about the "Great Tree?" Visually, when you're standing there, there's only about 3 feet between it and stone 13 and maybe 5 feet when you measure from the center of the trunk to the center of the stone; not enough to make the above an isosceles triangle.  The Great Tree as the apex of a meaningful triangle seems very unlikely as well.

So is there redeeming value to the investigation of the 13th stone and the "Great Tree?" Let's plot the cell phone coordinates of the "Great Tree" and stone 3 (stone 3 is that of Mr. Gann) and see if anything pops up.  Here's stone 3 and the GPS coordinates taken November 15 and the vector connecting those 2 points in red:


[Note, stone 3 appears visually over stone 2 in the above rightmost frame.  That is because Google earth is plotting the cell phone generated coordinates which are, again, divergent by about 5 feet.  We would think the coordinates of the Great Tree will be similarly different between the cellphone coordinates and Google coordinates.  When the red vector is extrapolated out to Lower Manhattan, I do not believe there to be a substantial error; we will sense the meaning of the red vector.]

Where are we going with this?  Well, to what landmark in Lower Manhattan might the red vector in the above insert (right frame) be pointing?

So lets extend the vector, and to reduce the size of this post I'll show the origination of two hunches I had in a green vector and a red vector:


The red vector will end at one of four Lower Manhattan landmarks I'd guessed:  


No, the green vector that ends at the southern point of the North Pool of WTC and intersects the 9/11 audio memorial office (120 Liberty Street, WD Gann's early offices) DOES NOT intersect the Great Tree.  The green vector connects to WD Gann's gravestone #3, but does not intersect the "Great Tree."

The end point of the red vector is at a point I'd guessed based upon the movie that gave me the insight into the WD Gann's Map of Time; "Knowing." The movie's next to the last disaster occurred in the subway station at Lafayette and Worth.  And what might be so important at that intersection other than a subway (the importance was not pointed out in the move)?



The tallest Federal building in the United States at 41 stories.  It houses operations of Homeland Security, FBI, Citizens and Immigration Services, SSA....the personnel that administer Federal law and services for one of if not the greatest city in the world.  A major target.

It would seem Mr. Gann might be pointing out the location of the next event in the life of New York City.  Or perhaps not.  [Correction 12/4/2015, please see HERE.]

[I am very disappointed in the lack of correlation between Google Earth coordinates and my iPhone 6 coordinates. My understanding is cell phone uses satellite and cell tower triangulation depending on whether satellite is available while Google is fully satellite.  Still, the results, whether cell tower triangulation or satellite determination appear somewhat systematic and reasonably accurate.  I have provided everything I have in this post in terms of GPS and the reader has access to Google Earth for free; all of the above can be replicated.  I doubt anyone will.]

[A nuance.  In the movie, an accidental train derailment occurs at the Lafayette and Worth subway station; in fact there isn't a subway station I could find in 'street view' of Google.  Indeed, there isn't an active subway station in or close to that intersection so an accidental train derailment cannot occur.  We are left with the vague impression that the red vector indicates, 'something will happen here' without further coloring save for the huge Federal Government presence.]

Retraction of one aspect of the "great event" post

$

I could let it ride and I doubt anyone would uncover the obvious but subtle contradiction between two of my posts.

My third trip to Green-Wood Cemetery in the mid fall was, among other things, purposed to determine if the "Great Tree" obscured the view of Lower Manhattan.  As I determined, I could see 1 WTC from Mr. Gann's grave and my line of sight was a few feet (maybe 5 or 6) right of the tree and elevated.  On that third trip, the view was just a bit hazy, but we all three (myself, daughter and son-in-law) could see the unmistakeable tallest building, 1 WTC, through the limbs of the great tree on its right side.

In my immediately previous post, I use cellular GPS coordinates of gravestone #3 (WD Gann's) and cellular GPS coordinates of the trunk of the "Great Tree" to draw a vector that intersects the otherwise very notable intersection of Lafayette and Worth streets.

The two observations are geometrically impossible.  If the GPS coordinates I took figured Lafayette and Worth through the Great Tree, the line of sight of 1 WTC would have to have been to the left of the Great Tree.

Something's simply wrong and I'd consider the error as placing cellular GPS locations on Google Earth satellite GPS measurements.  [It may be that the cellular GPS coordinates are correct relative to each other and, using the distances they compute between stones, might validate the same measurements derived via Google Earth measurements.]

Despite this retraction, there remain curiosities associated with the intersection of Lafayette and Worth and Federal Plaza and the date, October 19, 2016, but the above is a setback.

The 266th Pope, Pope Pius IX's 1848 visit to the U.S. and Pope Francis' visit to the U.S. in the MOT year 2015-16

$

Background, WD Gann tells us that "remarkable events" will occur in the wake of the election of the 266th Pope.  The 266th Pope is widely regarded to be Pope Francis and was elected on March 13, 2013.  On page 82 of "The Tunnel Thru the Air" Mr. Gann gives us both the "remarkable events" indication AND the date of an article published in "The Brooklyn Daily News" which reviews historical information associated with the Papacy and the substance of St Malachy's prophecy of the 266th Pope being the last.

This is Mr. Gann's "Modus Operandi." Cite an article or date and write, under a pen name, the article to color the point he wishes to emphasize.  It is a method straight out of the tool kit of Philo of Alexandris; create enigmas that, once unraveled by persons of dedication, will have greater and more specific meaning to that person.  The more concealed the enigma, the greater the message.  I've offered that WD Gann was the author of that January 29, 1922 article in The Brooklyn Daily News in an essay found HERE. I've offered that WD Gann was Luo Clement first in an essay found HERE, but supplemented in many essays found thereafter and on this blog.  I've offered (found HERE) that WD Gann was the Einstein Editor in a series of 1920 articles that, among other things, outlined his method (in my opinion) of computing time and space from Euclian geometry and Descartesean coordinates.  [Remember the cameo appearance of Dr. Descartes in TTTTA?]

Each of the enigmas in the previous paragraph are buried deeper than the previous.

More background.  The WD Gann Map of Time (MOT) has 2016 (mid 2015 to mid 2016) the last year of a 168-year cycle of repeating history.  168 years is 1/15th of a Biblical "Great Week" of 2520 years.  It is possible that we are ending not just a 168-year period but a "Great Week" of 2520  years dating back to "the Exile" of the Jews from Judah (for the calculation see HERE, among other essays on the subject)...that we are not ending a small 168-year period but, perhaps, a much greater epoch.

So, the MOT indicates events correlated on the MOT will repeat; 2016 (mid 2015 to mid 2016) will reflect the events of 1848, 168 years earlier.

There haven't been a lot of Papal visits to the U.S.

When did the Pope first visit the U.S.?  August 1848 which is in the first MOT year of the 168-year period (I had to go back to the MOT listing of every line number in TTTTA to make sure myself).

When did the 266th Pope visit the U.S.?  September 2015....which is in the MOT year of 2016.

From 1848 to 2016 is 168 years when counting in whole years.

What happened in Europe in 1848.  In several posts I've described the incredible chaos of that year in Europe, often referred to as "The Year of Revolution," the "Spring of Nations"....  It was the year of the great "community organizers" and communist/socialists; Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels.

It was also the year that Pope Pius IX lost the Papal States and fled Rome in disguise in the wake of the assassination of the Vatican's Minister of the Interior, Pellegrino Rossi.  Pope Pius IX remarked often that he became a prisoner in the wake of the loss of the Papal States.  As mentioned, fled Rome for a brief period.  And 1848 was the year that the Pope made the first Papal visit to the United States by boarding the U.S.S. Constitution (considered U.S. territory through it was anchored in the Mediterranean) in August 1848 (see HERE among other places).

Last Pope....Constitution....community organizer....revolution.  Remember Mr. Gann telling us that vibration will increase as time runs out.  Very very disconcerting.

Did I mention St Malachy (or Nostradamus depending on your preference) prophesied the 266th Pope would be the last?

Don't believe me.  Do your own work.  Enigmas are not solved by reading another's work but by doing the work...in my opinion.

"se non è vero, è ben trovato”

On page 82 of WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air," Mr. Gann presents three themes; first he proves his ability to predict the future, second he explains the timing of a prediction that will occur in our time period and third he provides the prediction.  I'll lead you to all three, but the third, you'll have to decide what he meant would occur.

First, he generally predicts the time and nature of the first phase of the Great Depression (1930-1933) and the time period of World War II (1940-1944).  Not too shabby.  Perhaps overt proof of Mr. Gann's ability to predict future events for those who would chose to read the simple words?  

Second, he introduces two themes of timing; the "great 1000-year cycle and the prophecies of St Malachy and the 266th Pope.  The "great 1000-year" year cycle is easy to explain...it is the only cycle in TTTTA to be described as "great" or with any such elevation.  And we know from previous essays that the history of 1000 years ago from 2016 found the Isalmic world reaching it peak and not to be challenged until the First Crusades of 1096.  The theme, the rise of Islam 1000 years ago.

On page 82 of TTTTA Mr. Gann discusses the prophecies of St. Malachy (some believe penned by Nostradamus under that pen name of an actually deceased Catholic figure) and points to the 266th Pope.  In specific, Mr. Gann says that "remarkable events" will occur upon the election of the 266th Pope.  For the better part of a year I have written my opinion that the discussion of the 266th Pope was not intended as the basis for the prediction of either the Great Depression or WWII.  Mr. Gann was hardly so ignorant as to have believed the 266th Pope would be elected in the 1920's, 1930's or 1940's.  He knew that.  It did not take foreknowledge for anyone to know such would not be the case.

Rather, he knew the 266th Pope would be elected much later and, in my opinion, the election would foretell the remarkable events Mr. Gann foresaw.  Relevant portions of page 82/83 in TTTTA:


So it seems clear to me, the 'remarkable events' are meant for our generation; the one in which Pope Francis, widely regarded the 266th, was elected in 2013.  The theme, just like the "great 1000-year" cycle and the renewed rise of Islam now compared to the 11th century, is "remarkable events" will follow the 2013 election of the 266th Pope.

Third, what are the events?  Did Mr. Gann elaborate in 'veiled fashion?' I believe he did.

Recall the essay "Confirming Aspects of Mr. Gann's Modus Operandi" found HERE.  Mr. Gann planted that date, January 29, 1922 so that the inquiring mind would search for any article of that date and concerning the 266th Pope.  That's my opinion.  It took me seconds to perform that Google search (did Mr. Gann know we'd be able to search for text) and I came upon an article that appeared on that date in the"Brooklyn Daily Eagle" on that exact date and discussed the 266th Pope.  Mr. Gann lived in Brooklyn; you don't suppose? I expect he wrote it or was involved in its publication but, regardless of whether you follow down that road, its hard to dismiss.  

Interesting  as well, the number of pages in the the paper that day are shown in Google as 81 pages.  Think about that.  There's a front and back to every page.  There can't be a front without a back now can there?  Perhaps the unnumbered page is the cover to the paper or a last page that is nothing other than advertisements.  But there must be an 82nd page.  And we find the above discussion in TTTTA beginning on page 82. 

Are there "remarkable events" alluded in the January 29, 1922 article?  The below excerpt can be found online HERE - the full article begins on page 2, the continuation below is on page 70 and there are 81 pages to the entire paper according to Google and as noted above: 


I can read and re read page 82 and then read and re read the 1922 article and find differing conclusions.  For a best case scenario if we insert in page 82 the post 266th Pope election years "2013-2017 for the years "1926 and 1932" then we can find that scenario:


"...famine, depressing business conditions and panic, not only in Europe, but in the United States."

For a worst case scenario, I'll leave it to your consideration.  Remember, I'm not saying this.  I am simply reading, decoding (correctly I believe) and presenting.

Whatever you decide, I'd submit the third theme is not good.
