As Mr. Holmes, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's fictional detective reprised by Mr. Gann in "The Tunnel Thru the Air", might do, I have furnished my 'attic' with a great number of disparate facts and theories. Among them are:
*2520 years. The "Great Week" best described by Thomas Troward in "Biblical Prophecy..." a book that is found in the secret reading list of Mr. Gann...those very few books published by Roger Brothers. The "Great Week" is the Biblical 2520-year period of the "Rule of the Gentiles" over the Jewish nation. Typically the period is thought to be comprised of 7 'days' comprised of the 360 years or 7 X 360 = 2520 (at least, that's what I thought, but maybe I'm not typical, just ignorant).
*168 years. The WD Gann "Map of Time" or MOT which is defined by the 15,340 lines of TTTTA, which, a day for a line gives you 42 years. And, given the doubling and re doubling "tid-bit" given us on page 45 of TTTTA, we have 42 X 2 X 2 = 168 years. Within the MOT we have 84 years that descend for a beginning in 1848 and ascend from the bottom in 1932 to end in 2016. The events of the left side of the earlier 84 years (1848 to 1932) repeat in the events of the more contemporary events on the right side 84 years of the MOT. As an example, we find 1919 on the left side of the MOT aligned on the same line as 1945 on the right side of the MOT. In 1919, the Treaty of Versailles ended WWI while on the right side the 1945 ceremonies of surrender with Germany and Japan ended WWII. The ends of WWI and WWII can be (and I have in a previous essay) reconciled to the day. In short, 168 years is the division of the Great Week into 15 components.
*168 hours. Quite simply, there are 168 hours in a week which is 7 days of 24 yours or 7 days of 1440 minutes or 10080 minutes.
*4 minutes is the smallest cycle according to Mr. Gann because it represents 1 degree of rotation of the earth about its axis (page 78 of TTTTA).
*252 or 1/10th of the Great Week. This is John Dee's "philosophers stone" number so named by Jim Egan. Dee was the philosopher/alchemist of Queen Elizabeth I's court in the 1600s and a contemporary of Lord Francis Bacon. In his personal correspondence with QE his secret name was "007." His name is found in the acrostic/telestic encoding of TTTTA some 45 times (interesting, 45), 44 of which are spelled "dee" and once spelled "007." If one were to count the number of non fictional proper nouns found in TTTTA, John Dee's name would be second only to that of God. The number 252 was very important to Mr. Gann.
*2520 = 15 periods of 168 years. As aforementioned, the Great Week may be considered comprised of 7 days of 360 years. Or perhaps, given Mr. Gann's definition of the 168-year period defined in the MOT, there are 15 periods of 168 years in the Great Week. And those 15 periods define two mirrored 84-periods where events repeat and proven by the WWI and WWII example and other examples given in previous essays.
The discovery may be this; the repetition of time, 'no new thing under the sun,' may occur on a weekly level as it does on a Great Week level. That is, but for the math not being the same. There are 2520 years in a Great Week, but 168 hours in the smaller counterpart. And 168 hrs X 60 min/hr or 10080 minutes in a small week. The math doesn't work.
The key is the smallest cycle, the 4-minute cycle. 10080 minutes divided by 4 minutes results in 2520 units of the smallest cycle, the 4-minute cycle.
We now have the Great Week on the same mathematic footing as the Small Week; 2520 divided into 15 parts comprised of 168 each. As above, the Great Week, so below, the Small Week. And the implication? So as each 168 year subdivision of the Great Week demonstrates the repetition of events between 84 year subdivisions, then to we expect the 168 hour subdivision of the 2520 units of the Small Week to demonstrate repetition between its constituent 84 units. Time in the first half of the week should repeat in the second half of the week. At least, within the constraints of the dominant pattern of the greater cycle; context for another essay.
That's a lot to ponder, but so simple. There must be a complication. Yes there is. The Great Week can be interpreted, according to Thomas Troward, in terms of 2520 solar or lunar years. Again, I'll leave that for still another essay.
And how might we have an level of confidence that the above is a correct interpretation of the implications of Mr. Gann's pronouncement of the 4 minute cycle invading the territory of the Great Week? Let's look to the acrostic/telestic encoding of TTTTA and, maybe, just maybe, Mr. Gann offers a tiny bit of encouragement:
Beginning in the last paragraph of page 78 and continuing on page 79 of TTTTA we have a hierarchy of cycles which includes the 4-minute cycle but excludes the Great Week. Perhaps the acrostic word "tom" spelled by the first letter of the lines 3145, 3147 and 3149 is Mr. Gann's way of providing some comfort. Or perhaps, paying attribution to the work of Thomas Troward.
