The Shemitah, Ezekiel 48/35, Robert Gordon's 7 days…and Dow 18000

A post awakens me to re consider the 7 years of market collapse; 2001 and 2008.  And 2015?  To that end, some thoughts.

The Shemitah.  Per Jonathan Cahn's analysis (from recollection of reading The Mystery of the Shemitah), 9/11/2001 was the last trading day (because the exchange closed) of the 2000-01 Shemitah.  And September 29, 2008, the largest loss of the 2008 decline as I recall, was similarly, the last trading day of the 2007-08 Shemitah.  [I haven't gone back to recheck the exactness of my recollection but I'm comfortable its substantially correct.]

Going forward in this Shemitah that began with 1 Tishri or September 25, 2014, the blood moons of this 2014-15 Shemitah would be 'thought' to be the moments of greatest surprise.  As with 2001 and 2008, the last day of the Shemitah would be expected to be the moment of greatest relief / forgiveness of debt.  If you look back at September 25, 2014 and shortly thereafter, there was an interesting "shaking" of the market almost to the day (again recollection).  That would be, poetically or maybe prophetically, the first of several shakings?

Somewhere along in TTTTA I was led to Ezekiel 48/35 (actually, on page 413) and 48/35 says:

The City Gates and Dimensions
…34"On the west side, 4,500 cubits, shall be three gates: the gate of Gad, one; the gate of Asher, one; the gate of Naphtali, one. 35"The city shall be 18,000 cubits round about; and the name of the city from that day shall be, 'The LORD is there.'" (Biblehub.com)

On page 413 and 414, Mr. Gann repeats in all caps "THE LORD IS THERE."  The point?  18,000 is the point.

18,000 rings a bell.  In my analysis of the distance traveled by Robert Gordon in his '7 days' (IMO Sir Robert Gordon, 1st Baronet and 1st Baronet of Nova Scotia as in owner of 16000 acres of Nova Scotia and likely Oak Island. son of the 1st Earl of Sutherland and contemporary of Lord Francis Bacon), RG circumnavigated the globe at the latitude of New York City.  At that latitude, the Earth is about 18,842 miles based on the Haversine formula.  But the Haversine formula is slightly inaccurate and the Earth is not a perfect sphere.  Perhaps the 18000 is closer than the 'government work.'  But RG didn't travel a perfect circle, he deviated north and south.  All in, he traveled 33,000 miles plus change.  So, if he traveled 18000 miles East West, can you compute the North South mileage he traveled.  Why yes, via Haversine and other methods, you can.  See my spreadsheet and essay of several months ago.  I believe the latest version is at:

http://markettimeandpricetownhall.blogspot.com/2014/08/robert-gordons-7-days-pythagorus.html

East West mileage was computed to be 18, 213, North South mileage was computed to be 18382 and total mileage (as the crow flies) was computed as 33,298 miles (both by Haversine at 33,242 and Internet websites' computed mileage at 33,298) to put a finer point on it.  Still, however fine the Haversine 'point', its not exact.  Perhaps the Bible provides the better number?  

In "Robert Gordon's 7 Days" RG traveled a perfect sphere and the mileages he traveled traced out the dimensions, including hypothenuse, of a perfect isosceles triangle (18K, 18K, 33K).  RG traveled both a perfect sphere in distance but a perfect Pythagorean isosceles right triangle (alas, not a 3 4 5).

So here we find the Dow at 18000.....
