My average Phi-rustration

Every day's research brings me a new frustration in trying to understand WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air" and its encoded "Map of Time."  Sometimes they're massive misinterpretation of "messages" encoded in the acrostic/telestic letters; hmmm, predicting massive geologic tumult last year comes to mind.  Sometimes they over interpreting a simple "ATTH" as all time trading high and imputing it as being the final high of the DJIA rally that began in 2009; the coding was correct but I conflated it into something it did not say.  Each painful frustration is a lesson that I have to live to understand.

So it is frustrating to no end that I find something very very close to Phi in the MOT, but off enough that it causes me to question whether Phi is intended.  The following has been a great frustration:


I want to see 1.6180; I want exact.  Mr. Gann's math must be perfect, exact.  I'm missing his point.  Without any further insight I'm left to rationalize 1.6285 as close enough.  A great frustration.  Frustrations have a way of leading to insights...sometimes.  I've lived with this frustration since I perceived the MOT's existence, now two years ago.

Down another road this last week, I converted the MOT from an annual basis to a weekly basis.  Some new insights did emerge.  One is the inaccurate Phi in the MOT.  It seems to have been refined with a divergent measurement of Phi.

You need to understand the MOT.  As first developed and to date, TTTTA's 15341 ascending lines and 15341 descending lines, at 2 days per line, represent exactly 168 years.  And 168 years is exactly 1/15th of the Biblical "Great Week" of 2520 years.  And the Biblical Great Week is considered by many as the key to Biblical prophecy.  

Well, there are 168 hours in a week almost just as there are 168 years in the Great Week.  So, I undertook the exercise of converting the MOT from 168 years to 168 hours.  I perceived many benefits not the least of which would be I could look for history repeating in the stock market.  After all, we have plenty of intraday data for this week versus last week, etc, but we don't have much data if we want to accurately compare this year in history versus history 168 years ago.

The next insight I encountered was...I ran out of minutes and seconds in the week.  168 hours X 60 minutes per hour X 60 seconds per minute = 604800 seconds.  I "appointed" 10 seconds in the "weekly MOT" for 1 day in the "yearly MOT" so I had 60480 10-second units.   Here's my problem in spreadsheet format:


In the yearly MOT I have a difference of 2 between the days in a 168-year prophetic period and the MOT enumeration.  I can understand that difference.  There are two columns of lines in the MOT, each having 15341 lines.  And, at the beginning of each we either eliminate the first or the last to count the number of intervals (in this case a day).  Eliminating 1 for each column, the MOT represents 15340 intervals X 2 columns.  I can understand the difference of 2.  Not a problem.

But the weekly MOT is off 442 10-second units.  Not good.  At least, not good until you understand.  A frustration, an insight.  

The difference lies in the measurement; the yearly MOT measures the number of days in the year according to orbits around the Sun where the weekly MOT has imposed on it days according to revolutions of the Earth.  I'll explain the difference of 442 in mathematics:


Let me boil it down to a statement.  A year comprised of 52 weeks comprised of hours, comprised of minutes and comprised of seconds, differs from a year comprised of 365.242 solar days differs by 5.32 days.  The former is 360 days and the latter is 365.242 and the difference is 5.24.  Now, that's close enough to convince me.  It is an insight.

And that insight leads me to another insight regarding Phi and the MOT.  As aforementioned, Robert Gordon's 7-day circumnavigation of the Earth divided into the number of lines in the yearly MOT is 1.6285, not 1.6180 or ideal Phi.  What is it if we computed Phi according to the weekly MOT?  I'll put the calculations, side-by-side:


Wow, it looks like RG's 7 days distance divided by lines used in the weekly MOT is as far off from idealized Phi as the same calc applied to the yearly MOT.  They offset.  What's the average?


Pretty darn close to Phi 1.6180?  To one-tenth of the third digit.

Page 78 of TTTTA:


Gurdjieffe's cosmology included the same positive, negative and neutralizing forces; the Law of Three.

I'll blue-sky it from here. The positive and negative are time and space, respectively, or in transposed order.  As Albert Einstein theorized, subsequently interpreted and courageously advanced by Sir Arthur Eddington, time and space vary and are dependent on the force that can change them, that being gravity. 

Perfect Phi computed by the MOT is dependent on the mass of heavenly bodies reduced by their distance from our little world.  I've read the gravitational effects of the mass of all heavenly bodies in the universe, including our very small moon, are dwarfed by the closeness we are to our Earth and the elephant in the room, the Sun.  If we could compute the effect of the mass of the universe (other than the Sun and Earth) on the calculation of Phi, perhaps we could resolve that one-tenth of the third digit difference.

The Sun is represented by the yearly MOT and the Earth is represented by the weekly MOT.  Their "resolution" largely determines the cycles of history. 

Not that the blue-sky matters for now.  We are, err I am, close enough to ideal Phi, err, for me.  I believe I am reading Mr. Gann's intended model to the mathematic point beyond which there isn't a viable calculation (the third digit).  My Phi-rustration is far less worse (an accountant's glass is always half empty).

If the above is true, there are profound implications in comparing historical to current events.
