Did WD Gann predict when he would die?

Having proven to myself that Mr. Gann predicted in 1927 within 1 minute Muhammad Ata's plane departing Logan Airport on September 11, 2001 and within 15 minutes of the moment the South Tower would fall, I've wondered; "Did he predict when he would die?

One number, perhaps intentionally encoded in the telestics of "The Tunnel Thru the Air", has bugged me without end.  I've, at times, interpreted it as a hidden reference to Matthew 7:7 which Mr. Gann quotes or paraphrases 3 times.  Obviously, 7 X 11 = 77, two wonderful prime numbers.  Here's the telestic that an enquiring researcher would find on page 97 of the first edition TTTTA (red highlight):

Gann was born in 1878 and died in 1955…77 years.  Just a coincidence?  "The Kybalion" insists there aren't any coincidences; I've seen enough in TTTTA that I do not believe in coincidence.  Parse the paradox further to see if Mr. Gann 'designed' further information in TTTTA that might encourage the reticent reader to believe he predicted his death in 1955.

Let's look at the date that appears on line 3801, the line of the second 7 or 77; April 30, 1927.  Perhaps Mr. Gann meant that we should divide his then hypothetical age by that mid life date to see whatever we see.  Here's some doodling:

We have a bit of an error….that is, if Gann designed his math problem to demonstrate the all too obvious math properties.  We'll accept rounding for now.  From his birth date to April 30, 1927 there expired 10,276 days or 28.14 years.  Rounded, that is 4 X 7 years or 28 years.

And the remaining days from April 30, 1927 to the day he died was 17,859 days or 48.9 years rounded to 49 years.  7 X 7 or 7 units of 7.

That's still not enough for the die hard, the world is random, all is coincidence persuasion.  After all, Gann is off .13 X 365 days on one end and .10 X 365 on the other end for a net of…well, he misses 77  years by 12 days.  I mean, 12 is 12.  To the skeptic it's proof of coincidence.  I guess so.

Hmmm, that 12 days and 7 units of 7.  12 and 7.  Something seems interesting about that.  I'm imagining things.  Back to more proof.

There are 15218 lines in TTTTA.  I've counted them and have them in a spreadsheet.  Exactly 15218 when you count 1 line after each paragraph and 1 line between pages (including blank pages).  The date, April 30, 1927 appears on line 3801.  From the first line on the cover of TTTTA to line 3801 you have 3801 lines and after that point you have 15218 - 3801 = 11417 lines to the last line of the back flap.  Might those 3 numbers parse into meaningful components?  Why yes, I believe so:

Wow, a 3 and a 4 to the 3rd decimal place.  I think Mr. Gann designed the page numbers and the placement of the acrostic "77" to produce, with precision, the numbers 3 and 4. Hmm 3+4=7 and 3X4=12.  7 and 12.

Let's not stop here.  He was 77 years and 12 days when he died.  12 days and 7 units of 11.  Focus on the 12 and 7.  Now recall the philosopher stone numbers of WD Gann and John Dee previously exposed on this blog, namely, 432 and 252, respectively.  They imply a wonderful proposition of cycles and subdivisions of the "Great" 1000-year cycle:

The philosopher stone numbers reduce to 12 and 7 and those same numbers, using Pythagoras' theorem, become the "Great" 1000-year cycle.

Two implications.  First, the not so startling conclusion, at least to me, that Gann predicted his death.  Actually, I 'knew' he did.  I just didn't know if he published it or if I could find it if he did. 

But the far more startling implication is that his life represented a subdivision of the math he and John Dee created; 12 and 7.  And those numbers are, in my estimation, among the Bible's most important.

I bet this keeps the 'random walk' people up tonight.  Nah, they know nobody knows.
