There are so many ways to illustrate the ancient concept of opposites; many eloquent, philosophic, mathematic, all very introspective if you chose to dwell on it. Start from the ultimate beginning, the first breath of God, the initial thought that created all things. You find it in Genesis as the contrasts in day and night, darkness and light, heaven and earth…. you find Gurdjiffe explaining the diatonic cosmology with it, you find Gann explaining it as the positive and negative; it is the fourth Hermetic principle of "The Kybalion:"
Both Gurdjiffe and Gann elaborate the principle to add to the positive and negative to add a neutral. Gurdjieffe gets to the "Law of three" and its part in the creation of the enneagram. Gann, through Robert Gordon, states it as a free standing principle, but again, with the neutral (page 78):
Gann, seemingly, goes a bit further. Perhaps he infers that, within cycles there are opposites or between cycles of differing levels or greater and smaller overlapping wheels we get opposites. Perhaps the "Gigantic Battle of New York" has finer insights on how his conceptualization works.
The first opposite; June 9, 1932, most prominently, the day of the "Gigantic" attack on New York City and, contemporaneously, Robert Gordon's birthday. Take this date apart and you might have 6-9 and 1932. The first part is 69 (which is also 6+9=15) and the second part is 1+9+3+2=15. A perfect transition from the dominant number 15 in the first post to a newly introduced number, 69. Did I say the number 15 wouldn't be as important in this second post?
The number 69; one might perceive it to be a perfect symbol of opposites. Is there any other 2 digit number that, comprised of different digits, will allow you to completely invert either number (invert meaning turn upside down AND right to left) and you have the other digit? Take just the 6, turn it upside down and then rotate it left to right and you have 9. Do the same with the 9 and it becomes a 6. A mirror reverse, but not just east west; north south as well. The resulting 2 digits are the same. You have either 66 or 99 depending on which digit you double flip.
Now manipulate the numbers a different way. Take the complete number, 69, and turn it upside down and rotate the whole number right to left. You end up with…69, the same number with which you started.
Finally, manipulate the numbers a third way. Move the 9 one place to the left or the six one place right and you have 96, the transposition of the 69. The difference in the numbers are 27 (96-69) and the cube of 3.
How important is the number 69 to Mr. Gann? Of course, Robert established his office in New York at 69 Wall Street. Or perhaps reviewing page number 69 might help.
Very important page but we will focus on the "Jonus triangle." On page 69 we find the "Jonas triangle" constructed of four observations of the letter "J" in Jonas. Unquestionably, it is a right triangle further bisected to produce two apparent equilateral triangles. But that's not the important part. I believe its pretty easy to find triangles in text. But this one has an interesting property. If you count the letters from the vertically aligned "J"s on the left and the vertical line spacing you get sides of 12 and 40 and you can compute an interest hypotenuse of 41.761. Recalling a previous essay found here on the only cycle that Mr. Gann calls "great," the one twenty fourth division of that cycle would be 41.666 years. Recalling yet another essay found here regarding cycles derived from the philosopher stone numbers of Mr. Gann and John Dee (432 and 252, respectively), we find the derivative 41.666 year cycle might have further substance. [I did not discover the Jonas triangle but did apply the math to it, compared it to the "Great" 1000 year cycle and to the philosopher stone numbers.]
And we must mention the specific scripture as well and the number 3. 3+3=6 and 3*3=9. We have the fixings of 69. And cube 3 to derive 27 and you have the difference between 96 and 69 described two paragraphs above. So much more in this scripture but off point for now.
Suffice to say, 69 is important and Mr. Gann went to great lengths to emphasize its importance.
The outcome is the most important opposite. In 1932, Robert Gordon defends the 110-story Mammouth Building, the cedar. He utterly destroys two fleets of allied enemy airplanes. [As a note, there is a third fleet of planes, but RG drops them safely into the Tunnel using sleeping gas.] In 2001, the twin towers are utterly destroyed in two waves of attacks.
**In 1932, the U.S. is victorious, in 2001, the U.S. is defeated. Opposite outcomes.**
The destruction of "two's" are opposite. In 1932, Robert Gordon entirely destroys two fleets of allied enemy airplanes. In 2001, the enemy entirely destroys two towers.
**In 1932, the enemy lost 2 fleets of planes, in 2001 the U.S lost two 110-story towers.**
The flight paths of the attacks. This promises to be confusing and arguable. Consider it as you wish but in context of the previous indisputable opposites. There are two New York attacks in which total destruction of two enemy fleets occurred in 1932 and two New York attacks in 2001 in which total destruction of two great towers occurred.
The flight paths of the first wave of the allied enemy fleet originated from "40 or 50 miles up the Hudson River" (page 362). Since the Mammouth was located at 42nd and Broadway (Time Square) and within only a few miles of the mouth of the Hudson, the only possible conclusion that the planes were over the Hudson would be if they were attacking from the north. Further confirmation, Robert Gordon waited until they were over Yonkers; again, attack from the north. In 2001, Muhammad Ata's Flight 11 departed Logan at 7:59am traveling east, turned due south shortly after entering New York airspace and attacked the WTC from the north. Visually, one might consider the 1932 and 2001 attack routes the same. The 1932 and 2001 first wave attacks were the same.
The flight paths of the second wave of the allied enemy and the second attacking United Flight 175 did not have the same flight paths. They, themselves, were opposites and their mere being opposites placed them as opposites the the first attacks which were the same. The second wave of enemy planes approached the Mammouth were sighted over Long Island Sound but Robert Gordon waited until they approached from the Atlantic Ocean and were over Fire Island. The fleet of planes emanated from the north, turned westward at Fire Island and began their attack at about Fire Island. Relative to the Mammouth, the incoming planes were coming from the north east. Except that the Flight 175 emanated from the north, it passed New York City widely on its west side, and turned sharply northward shortly before it would have reached Philadelphia. Its final flight path to the WTC was from the south west. The 1932 and 2001 second wave attacks were opposites.
Could Mr. Gann have contrived the 1932 flight plans to demonstrate opposites? I am very hesitant to dismiss the possibility. Regardless, the authenticity of the 9/11prophecy hardly rests on this point.
The point of this essay and second component of the three, is to explain the outcomes of the respective battles according to the Hermetic principle of opposites, and to explain the importance of the number, 69, in Mr. Gann's prophecy of 9/11. Without this explanation, the perfect timing that will be demonstrated in the final essay would be lost in the vacant thought "But in 1932 we won and in 2001 we lost. He didn't predict anything. He has it bass ackwards."
Quite the contrary. He was right to within one minute, given the concept of opposites.
