On "All is number," or perhaps, "Number is all"

I made a discovery (yet to be proven) yesterday, September 21, 2017, in WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air."  Actually, it was a re discovery of a number sequence I believe Mr. Mann encoded in TTTTA.  There isn't anything I find that is a discovery and likely the same statement can be made of Mr. Gann.   I thought the math sequence I discovered was a dead end until the wee hours of this morning when I laid in bed trying to make heads or tails of it...and then its importance hit me.  I'll reserve that re discovery for tomorrow's essay should it be proven true with today's work.  But from the initial re discovery I derived a coincidental thought or synchronicity that is mine and to which I attribute this essay.

"The plan," then is to write this essay to document the date I discovered the math sequence, namely September 21, 2017 (this morning is the 22nd as the Google date stamp on this essay will show), and to make sense of the coincidental thought, synchronicity....whatever it is.  There are 3 background bits of information:

• To paraphrase William Gurdjieff (or "G") from imperfect memory:

"To know a thing one must know what came before it, what came after it, what is above it, what is below it, what it is a part of and what is a part of it."  G

• I am James, born on the 21st day of the month, third in the direct line of men named James in my family (to my knowledge).  My grandfather, father and son were all given the name James and we each went by nicknames of that given name to avoid confusion.  But deep down, in our being we were all James.  And, today, I am 2 X 33 years old, no, its not my birthday today.

• I am impressed that both WD Gann (page 78 of TTTTA) and G (the law of the Triamazikamno), in different words, conceived of the universe being comprised of three forces; the positive, the negative and the neutral force.

Attributed to the teachings of Pythagoras of Samos "All is number" is the title of this essay.  Here's the synchronicity that struck me today.  Its derived from the Pythagorean cipher, gematria, code, whatever, that is documented by Luo Clement in "The Ancient Science of Numbers" [Luo Clement, like William Shakespeare, who never existed that anyone can document, was a pen name of WD Gann.]  The synchronicity begins here:

All - is - number.

or

1+3+3=7 - is - 5+3+4+2+5+9=30=3+0=3

or

7 - is - 3

or

Pythagoras might have said "Number is all."

"All is number" is comprised of the digits 7 and 3 otherwise rearranged as '37' which is the revered angle of the Pythagorean 3 4 5 triangle.   Is it "Number is all."  A difference with a distinction?  Further, those digits can be related to the "Law of three" and "Law of seven" both at the heart of the "Law of vibrations" cosmologies of both Mr. Gann and Mr. G.  The truth of the Pythagorean triangle might sway me to believe "Number is all."

Consider further the entire reduction of the phrase (including 'is'):

1+3+3+9+1+5+3+4+2+5+9 = 45 = 4+5 = 9 = 3 X 3

We arrive at 3 and 3 as above.

None of the above is startling as there are only 9 single digits so when we start reducing and rearranging, etc, the improbability of coinciding 7 and 3 or 3 and 7, well, its not all that statistically improbable.  Nor is the entire phrase theosophic reduction and rearrangement to 3 X 3 all that improbable.  So "where's the meat."

The synchronicities abound; the first of several you can experience. 

• As aforementioned, 37 is the smallest angle of the Pythagorean 345 and is enshrined in Pythagorean societies to this day.

• 33 was the age of Jesus when he was crucified.  

• 33 is the simple cipher reduction (per "The Lost Secret..." by Richard Allan Wagner) of the last name of Lord Francis Bacon and his hidden signature in many of his alleged greatest literary works (Shakespeare and KJV version of the Bible, the only version WD Gann carried with him).

The personal synchronicity is, as alluded, my birth number and name numbers according to Luo Clement are 3 (born in the 21st day of the month or 2+1=3) and 3 (James is 1+1+4+5+1=12=1+2=3). I am 33....hmmm, I wish that was my age (not really, because that was not a good year for me).  I am 66 years old or 2 X 33 = 66.  Hmmm again, 6+6=12=1+2=3.

*** ***

This essay had its origin in a discovery, that I believe will prove very important, that occurred on the 21st of September.  September or the 9th month, which is, like the manipulation of 'all' and 'number' (above) 3X3.  And the 21st reduced is 2+1=3.

Yeah, I know, given the time and an idle (or, as self admitted, obsessed) mind, numbers can be selectively chosen to create the desired scenario.   [Hmmm, that seems to be the course of all of statistical inference these days; find the statistical plan that will create the sample data that will justify the thesis.]  You needn't accuse me of what I already recognize to make a point.

Circle back to G's thought, above, on knowing our place in the universe; what is before, after, above, below and what we are a part of and what is part of us.  Where do we fit relative to others, our ancestors, and vice versa.  Where do we fit within the 'numbers' or within the 'all,' if that is correct to ask?  

"Number is all" is what I am persuaded to believe Pythagoras was saying.  I find the allusion of 'order' and 'determination' in the distinction, but, that's me and such are the things over which my mind obsesses in the haze between sleep and wake.

Pythagoras, Fibonacci and Phi; mathematic proof of their encoded reflection

Oh I was so disappointed when I searched WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air" and the related encoded "Map of Time" for some reflection of the word 'Pythagoras' the first time and came up with a blank.  It wasn't long I found on page 129 (low 'C' frequency of 128 +1) the Masonic poem "The Anvil of God's Word" which was purposefully misprinted (I'll leave it to you to discover the error but I linked an essay on that).  Why did he misprint it?  To spell the word "LATO," a village which some say Pythagoras visited to receive great knowledge.  Perhaps his knowledge of the diatonic scale?

There had to be more to Pythagoras didn't there?  Months, no, years have passed.  Where is Pythagoras of Samos?  So I look for Samos by searching the MOT for "sam" expecting to find the 'os' in proximity.  And I find it:

The acrostic letters are contiguous (in red), once and only once in the MOT centered on the line 9390.  In statistics, I suspect there should be many instances of "sam" in 15341 acrostic letters in TTTTA.  But what is the probability of the 5 letters that spell 'Samos?'  Well, small but hardly dispositive.  So, I've gotten a finger on the brass ring but not tight enough.

Wow, there's a contiguous 'wd' in yellow at line 9386.  Hmmm, what might that wiley WD do with that number to display the math of Pythagoras?  Might he divide by 2, the ratio of the second and third numbers of the Fibonacci sequence?  Let's see.  9386 / 2 = 4693 and we find at that line:

We find a telestic encoded "wd."  Now that adds to the statistical argument.  Its becoming "compelling."

Moreover, we find an 'attaboy' that Mr. Gann provided the finder.  "My God, my God, now is the time I needed her the most."  Instead of 'her,' I'd interject 'inspiration' instead.  I needed that inspiration.

A lot to make of two 'wd's.  I mean really, James, the letters w and d are pretty common letters and, well, it might be statistically unlikely to find them in a trail of Fibonacci denominated lines.  Compelling, but, still not dispositive.

Will Mr. Gann encode every iteration of Phi with the letters 'wd?'  We know that's impossible given the Fibonacci sequence is infinite.  But what is the recognizable reflection of theoretic, ideal Phi?  Its 1.618.

So let's try 1.618.  And 9386 / 1.618 = 5800.988 or line number 5801:

We find an emphatic telestic encoded word "wdwd."  That is beyond statistical improbability.  It was intended.  It is not random.  It is now dispositive.  Math has proven, to me, a believer in math, that Pythagoras of Samos is encoded in TTTTA.

Did Mr. Gann 'dis' poor Fibonacci aka Leonardo de Pisa?  Of course not, I've discussed Lenny's encoding in TTTTA before.  We find it within the line span of "TAO to WAR" or "PATH to WAR" or the mathematic "Tao device" and associated with my discovery of WD Gann's prediction of the 9/11 tragedy.

But 'di pisa' has to be mathematically related to the 'wd' sequence doesn't it?  Yes, that is my personal judgement of WD Gann's modus operandi.  Its what I would do if I were smart enough to create TTTTA.  WD Gann had to do it.  And, of course, he did.  Line 2847 on which the 'p' of 'pisa' appears multiplied by the ratio of the third and second Fibonacci numbers or 2 is line 4694.

Just look at the second insert above.  Line 4694 is the telestic 'wd.'  And re doubled as Mr. Gann said, you have line 9388; you have 'wd' and 'Samos.'

I'm sorry, WD Gann's intent with regard to Phi, Pythagoras and Fibonacci is dispositive; its proven by  Mr. Gann's unmistakeable mathematic creation.  I don't want to be on the opposite side of that statistical argument.  Be my guest.  I'll leave it to the social media rooms to let the idiots, and there are many, deny the perfection of math.

*** ***

But its not about if he encoded TTTTA or if he honored great mathematicians; ultimately, its about the mathematics that explains the universe.  The mathematics that explains the future.  As it may someday unfold, I believe Mr. Gann encoded all of these things.  But that's an opinion and its not remotely close to err, "dispositive.'  

Am I frustrated I am not 'tooled' with the intellect to unwind WD Gann's coding and knowledge?  I read the next stanza of the 'wdwd' poem:

In the 'ultimately,' its all about the explanation of the universe.  In the much smaller realm 'personally,' its all  about the 'doing.'  As my personal testimony, the joy is in the doing.  And the latter, unlike the former, is dispositive.

And yet, so much 'to do.'

Back to the structure of The Tunnel

Maybe two years ago I counted the lines in WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air" (TTTTA) using typical typeset standards and found a total (15341 lines).  Sure, there's some minor subjectivity.  I could see someone contesting some of the line spacing determinations I made.  Similarly, measuring the Great Pyramid (GO) can be disputed.

Can math suggest the intent of the creators (creators of the GP or creator of TTTTA)?

Derek Skhane (Gnosis) has created a lifetime of numbers supporting his (and others) thesis that all Number, regardless of the denomination (inches, feet or miles or seconds, hours, years) can be derived from one another.  All Number is related and analytically provable.  Through the course of many essays he uses his derivation of what the Great Pyramid was intended to convey; a height of 480 units and a side length of 756 units.  Archeologists have quibbled since Petrie's on site measurements about the extent of deterioration of the structure and what it would have been.  Skhane uses math to analytically  reason what the intent of the creator(s) was.  Math, truth.

Can the structure of TTTTA, as I've conjured it, allude Mr. Gann's intention?  Here's the structure I have previously proposed:

For the naive, there are 36 chapters in TTTTA and 418 pages and the 34th chapter is unconscionably misnomered as the 39th.  Start reading symbolism from those gifts on the plate without further inquiry and, I believe, you are down the wrong road from the first moment.

No, there are 42 'sections' (as opposed to chapters) in TTTTA, 432 pages and 15341 lines.  Can math prove Mr. Gann's intent?  Yes:

15341 lines / 42 chapters = 365.262

Days in a year = 365.242

I'd submit the above is the intended structure of TTTTA, to the extent its shown above, as alluded by math to 4/100ths of a day (365.262 versus 365.242).

If you believe the analytical math of 480 and 756 of the GP as opposed to the subjective measurements of Petrie and cohorts, then you probably believe the structure of TTTTA as allegedly proven by math as opposed to the arbitrary page and chapter numbers presented.

To where from this point today?  I've written this before, so this observation is not the 'where' as yet; the earths average circumference of about 24880 / 15341 lines = 1.6217 or less than 8/100ths from Phi.  I think there's some intent mixed into that math.

Okay, that's a distance measurement of 24880 miles divided by a distance measurement of 15341 lines (some might say a 'count measurement' instead).  Let's try to mix some apples with some oranges instead.  The first day of TTTTA is June 9, 1906; Robert Gordon's birth.  And the last day is August 30, 1932.  The time elapsed is 9579 days.

15341 lines, a distance measurement or ordinal measurement and 9579 days, clearly a time measurement (or maybe a distance measurement if extrapolated by the circumference of the earth).

15341 / 9579 = 1.6015

The 6th number of the Fibonacci sequence divided by the 5th number or an early and possibly the most recognizable representation of Phi; that being 1.60.  

*** ***

From the above I've reached two simple preliminary conclusions beyond proving (IMO) the intended mathematic structure of TTTTA.  

First, Mr. Gann liked Phi (duh) and considered it so important he inscribed it in the fabric of TTTTA.  In contrast to a self impressed noted astrologer who claimed he did not like Mr. Gann because he failed to teach his great secret of Phi to the public, I believe WDG encoded Phi in dozens of ways for persons who would work to find and thereby appreciate its significance.  Ask, seek, knock.

Second, and reprising Mr. Skhane, and, perhaps Pythagoras himself, "All is number."  Number embraces and unifies (or is the unification of) time and space.  Two of the three forces of which both WD Gann and George Gurdjieff spoke.  

• WD Gann, page 78 of TTTTA:

• W. I. Gurdjieff, pages 478-480 of Beelzebub's Tales,  'the sacred Triamazikamno' (the law of 3 comprised of the neutral, positive and negative forces).

  

All and everything comprised not wholly of space or of time, but of space and time inseparable, unified in Number by the neutral force or neutralizing force...the latter, perhaps, Phi in some manner.  Judgment or reckoning of time impossible without space and vice versa.  Just a thought.

Am I wrong or am I onto something?  Will I find WD Gann and Pythagoras further and inextricably encoded according to math?  I'm already down that road and envision another essay.  I believe we will see yet more convincing encoded mathematic intent of WD Gann.

Just in case it happens

Generally, I am looking at this DJIA area of price and time for a great market top.  That's not uncommon nor is my, typically, being wrong.  Generally, we are 88 years from the 9/3/1929 market top.  In round years, that 88 years, a number that has popped up very often.  For example, the number 11, 77 and 88 are the only three appearances of acrostic/telestic repeating double digit numbers (there are 3 instances of '00') found in WD Gann's "Map of Time:"

We find, above, the telestic word '88' spelled in consecutive digits to end lines 8366 and 8377.  Interesting that 11 and 77 add to 88.  Also interesting the content of the narrative of the instant and previous paragraph.  I've discussed all this before.

So I'm brought to this point today by my search for a replacement light shade fixture.  In response to a Google search for a glass mushroom shade fixture the 9th item on the second page of search results is a 1908 add in "The Daily Eagle."  How bizarre is that? 

Well, its bizarre to me because I've studied several articles that I know to have been published/planted by WD Gann in his hometown newspaper.  Google "Market Time and Price Town Hall" and "Brooklynn Daily Eagle" if you want to see what I found.

Now, 1908 rang a big bell as well.  Wasn't it the year of the "Ticker Interview?"  So I Googled WD Gann and 1908 and, sure enough, I found the "Trading Fives" copy of the document.  But its was 1909.  It was brought up because the year 1908 was in the interview referring to the story, myth, legend of WD Gann predicting Union Pacific, then selling at 168 1/8 would never get to 169:

Now the '168' rings a bell.  The number of lines in "The Tunnel Thru the Air" as counted in the MOT are 15341.  Counted downward and then upward as has been done in the MOT, we have 30682 lines and this divided by 365.242 days in a year is 168 years to the third decimal.

And we all know (said facetiously because I did not know until I studied prophecy about two years ago), that 168 is 1/15th of a Biblical Great Week of 2520 years.  Gosh, I could really stray (again facetiously) here since the number 252 is one of the three numbers with I believe Mr. Gann held in great reverence (the others being the aforementioned 168 and 432, the latter being the actually page in TTTTA). 

So where are we, this day, of September 15, in the Dow.  We are trading at this moment at 22,218 or 168 X 132.25.  Hmm, 132 is the 11th square of 12 and we find the number 11 in the opening paragraph and spelled acrostically on line 2813 and 2814:

Disconcerting, I find one iteration of my name spelled in consecutive letter.  The subject of the narrative is, trading cotton.

Well, I haven't tied in the number 77 (the number of years in WD Gann's life, an interesting story in itself that I've documented) but, it is 88 - 11 so lets find that third of three encoded numbers in the MOT:

Again, my name is spelled in consecutive acrostic, telestic letters, but I'm getting used to that.  Again,  the subject touches on trading but this time to indicate the fruits of Robert Gordon's work.

This is what I struck on today.  I said that this area of time and price had already intrigued me and it was because of the date, "September 17," which appears only once in TTTTA.  It appears at the exact half way point of the number of lines in narrative text of TTTTA:

At the exact center line of TTTTA narrative we find the 23rd of 46 instances (also halfway) of John Dee's name, this time using the encoded signature which he used with Queen Elizabeth I, that being "007."  And we find that Robert sold short Major Motors.  Should I sell short today since September 17 is this Sunday?  I've traded on less convincing "evidence," to my shame.

These are only clues and I'm known to be spectacularly wrong in my interpretation of subjective clues (if they are, in fact, intended clues).  Its a lesson learned that subjective clues can never displace the value of perfect mathematic reason.  I'm presently working on the mathematics of the diatonic scale (Gurdjieff recounted by Russell Smith and Pyotr Ouspenskii)....once again led there by the intentionally imperfectly presented poem of the "Anvil of God's Word" (page 128 of TTTTA or low "c" plus 1).   This essay is only a recreational departure.  Actually, my entire TTTTA research effort is recreational now I come to think of it.

*** ***

168 X the 11th square of 12 (22176) is whereabouts we are trading today.  Might this be a juncture at which we speculate that, similar to the 1908 fable documented in the Ticker, DJIA exceeding168 but not getting to 169 X the 12th square of 12 (24192)?

I offer this convoluted trail of nonsense only because it would be startling if this came to pass.  I'm more inclined to trade it than ignore it; but only barely.  

And if today, September 15 or Monday, September 18, proves to be a top, "the" top, well, it would be a synchronicity in real time that we can all experience and prove to ourselves;  arguably, an 88+ year-old prediction realized.

Nah.

Jim Ross

[Incredible, Monday September 18, aforementioned; the date of passing of Mae LeGrand in 1932 I found on the 13th grave stone at the point of the Gann Gravestone Geometry triangle, the date in 1920 which links Luo Clement (non de plume of WD Gann as I have, IMO, overwhelmingly proven) to the Einstein Editor (another non de plume of WD Gann IMO otherwise absent conclusive proof), and September 18, 2007 the date we lost our 25 year-old son...several other instances of that date come to mind but none to compare to those items.  And when I hit the "publish" button, what popped up but the third of WD Gann's philosopher stone numbers of 168, 252 and 432:

With this essay I've published 432 essays, the number of pages in TTTTA.] 

Yesterday's anniversary with the 1929 top and other observations

The top of the 1929 market occurred, if memory serves, on 9/3/1929.  Yesterday was a notable 88 years from that date.  There are three two digit acrostic or telestic numbers found in WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air:"

and

The three two digit acrostic/telestic numbers are 11, 77 and 88 as you see above.  And, of course, 11 + 77 = 88.  What are the odds that the ONLY 3 encoded two digit number self prove themselves?  

That third item above, namely that associated with the number 88.  Read the narrative.  "They chose new gods; then was war within the gates: was there a shield or spear seen among forty thousand in Israel?"  [Judges 5:8]

The citation and verse is meaningful to me.  When first I discovered the WD Gann Map of Time and its 168-year 1/15th subdivision of the Biblical Great Week (2520 years), I looked for repetition between its beginning year 1848 the ending year 2016.  1848, the "Spring of Nations," the "Year of Revolutions....  I found, very specifically, the rise of Karl Marx in Europe and his foment of worker rebellion in some 50 countries (as I recall) in Europe.  In 2016, again the end of the 168-year MOT cycle, we find the election of the US current president and, rightly or wrongly, the greatest (in my estimation) civil division in American history.  History repeats?  Kinda looks like it with half the nation on adamantly on opposite sides of that fence.  Maybe it blows over (said without personal conviction, but, that's me).

Something else about that 3rd of 3 citations above; note the year in it.  It's 1928 and 1928 plus 88 was last year or 2016.  1928 appears on the same line as the first 8 in the telestic two-digit number 88.  Perhaps, if this is a prophecy and not just a coincidence, the "new gods" were picked in 2016.  And wasn't there an election in 2016?  And isn't there still polarization and increasing militarization?

My morning now fully shot, I figured one more wandering, this time beginning with a current event;

Hurricane Irma.  Perhaps it lands in my back yard here in VA Beach.  Maybe Mr. Gann has something to say about it...or not.  It was only a couple keystrokes in the "Finder" facility in the MOT spreadsheet to search for Irma and it helped me lose half my afternoon.  I put the four letters into the MOT's Excel-based search string and found "Irma" one time and one time only, spelled in consecutive acrostic letters (in red below):

One perfect spelling of the acrostic "Irma" in the entire book.  And look at the narrative on lines 12319-12322 where it appears; that creating a "tunnel thru the air" (in my estimation, a tunnel thru time) is no more complicated than a tunnel thru dirt or water.

Doggone interesting that it fell on page 333.  Google "number 333" and see if there isn't a lot of interest in that number.  Ezekiel 33:3...the prophet warns the Israelis.  The Trinity.  Hmmm. my birth number 21st day of the month or 21=2+1=3 and my name number for James 1+1+4+5+1=12=1+2=3.   [See how easily I'm sucked into this?  Pavlovian.]  Some disconcerting thoughts, hopefully only meaningless thoughts and meaningless coincidence.  What I actually saw on my copy of the MOT when I went to page 333, was not the foregoing insert where Irma is located, but a far more colorful presentation:

"We need the tunnel thru time to save America's people."

Lots of colors where I'd previously found a phrase made of acrostic and telestic letters on that page.  In itself, not convincing.  Yeah, given 74 acrostic/telestic letters on that page (37 lines X 2) there's a lot of phrases that can be constructed.  I don't know how to assess the probability.  

Its not a stand alone probability in my estimation.  Is the encoded phrase consistent with the narrative from which it is created?  I'd be willing to assert that the extent to which the encoded message confirms/supplements the narrative makes it more probable the author intended the full meaning conveyed.  And if he intended a message for us in our time, then he saw it. 

There it is...WD Gann, supposedly through the mind wanderings of Robert Gordon, tells us a "tunnel thru the air" is no more difficult to create than a tunnel through dirt or submarine through water (first paragraph of page 333).  That's the plain narrative.  The thought is in the narrative and with little effort I find the similar/supplementary sentiment in the acrostic/telestic encoding; creating a tunnel thru time to save Americans is possible.  The plain wording and thought confirmed by the encoded sentiment.  I get the idea of what Mr. Gann was trying to convey.  

Or is it coincidence?

*** ***

1928 plus 88 leads us to the bright line of the growing polarization of the U.S.; the presidential election.  2016, the last year of the 168-year MOT cycle.  Its civil polarization of proportions that existed in 1848, the first year of the 168-year MOT cycle.  History repeats, or so it appears to me.

And that tunnel thru the air; a tunnel thru time, perhaps?  A "Map of Time" perhaps?

As an observation, the great September 3, 1929 market top was 88 years ago on Sunday last.  The previous trading day was September 1, 2017 and it was not an all time high comparable to the 1929 top.  Rather, the all time high was August 9, 2017.  If DJIA breaks that top on the first trading day  following 9/3/2017 (tomorrow), well, that would be doggone interesting.

PS.  And when I clicked the "Publish" button, I look at my previous post and find that 77 people had read that essay.

77, the second of the three numbers that are the initial subjects of this essay.  77, the age at which Mr. Gann passed.

It just keeps happening...how many times do I need to be told?

Synchronicity.

The setting for this post, and today's synchronicity, has three parts; 1) the recent August 7, 2017 post which led me to a prophetic and Biblical warning, 2) the even more recent August 24, 2017 essay in which led to the renumbering (a line for a day with a beginning of September 1, 2001) of the WD Gann "Map of Time" and 3) a long ago discovered mathematic device - the Tao Device.

1.  August 7, 2017; the Biblical promise that the Lord will not again destroy the world by water.  On August 7, 2017 I made a discovery that tied the MOT to the WD Gann declared most important lesson of "The Tunnel Thru The Air."  Always suspicious, I looked in the MOT for that date and found the following paragraph:

The date, 8/7/2017 occurs on a line between 2 paragraphs.  The first paragraph declares, with an emphatic verb, "Heed."  In all the acrostic and telestic words spelled in TTTTA, it seems the most forceful I recall.

The second paragraph, recounts the Bible's promise the world will not be destroyed by water.  Can't make this stuff up...as we all witness the Houston floods.  As we all watch as North Korea does a nuclear payload capable ICBM over Japan.

And, as if to connect the ends of a circle, what is the Bible verse source?  It is Genesis 9:11.  9/11 is how I got to the point of the August 7 essay in the first place.

2.  August 24, 2017; choosing the "right beginning" and the correct cycle (or interval).  The Robert Gordon's 7 days and MOT correlation of item 1, above, convinced me that the MOT should be re enumerated "appointing" a line for a day (it presently and above has two dates associated with each line).  Of course, I did that and arrived at a big 'so what?'

Except that, the day I reached this epiphany was August 24.  There are 5826 days between the beginning date, September 11, 2001, and the date of this latter post.  September 11, 2001 is on line 2699 of the MOT and, counting 1 day per line up, there are 2699 days to the first line on the cover of the book.  I ran out of lines with 3127 lines left.  So I counted down from the first line of TTTTA to line number 3127 and found the acrostic word "Pi."

Well, a 2-letter acrostic word, namely Pi, is hardly notable.  Again except that the immediately thereafter following paragraph explains WD Gann's method of prophecy; start with the right beginning:

I started with declaring the line of the 9/11 prediction as the "right beginning" and a day for a line as the right interval.  And ended on a key paragraph that reiterates the "right beginning" and the cycle.  [I continue working on "Pi" as a component of the actual mathematic methodology of prediction.]

3.  The Tao Device.  I discovered the Tao Device at shortly after the time I discovered WD Ann's prediction of 9/11/2001 and the number of innocent lives lost that day.   Spelled on the line enumerated for 9/11/2001 appears was the acrostic word "TAO," in prominent all caps.  "Tao," having one far east meaning of "path."  Perhaps "Path to War?  And there was an acrostic word spelled in all caps some 162 lines later.  At that time, I hadn't identified the phrase, "Path to War."  And then it hit me.  If I wanted to convince someone of the authenticity of the prediction, I'd create a math device...math is unambiguous, objective, unassailable.  Its not random.  It is proof.

I would place the word "to" perfectly between TAO (on line 2699) and WAR (on line 2860).  Do the math.  I'd place "to" on lines 2779 and 2780:

Focus on the red acrostic words in the above 3 excerpts and their associated cumulative line numbers.  It defines what I have named the "Tao Device."  Math that confirms WD Ganns intended meaning.  [People who study TTTTA will recognize "to" appears on that meaningful page 69.]

And what happened in the wake of 9/11?  Afghanistan, Iraq, and the continuing wars.  Indeed, it was the "path to war."

So what's today's synchronicity?  Take items 1 and 2 above.  The perpetual skeptic will say, "just coincidence" that you landed on the day that describes Mr. Gann's method of prediction."

The Tao Device, a mathematic confirmation signature if you will, eliminates that mindless argument. Math is unmistakable, unambiguous truth.

#1 above occurred at line 2699.  #2 above occurred at line 3127.  There are 5826 days/lines in between.  [Refer above to the derivation of 5826 lines.]  If the Tao Device confirms meaning, then there needs to be an unmistakable component perfectly in between.  Where is the "mathematically in between?"  It is 5826 line divided by 2 = 2913.

So we start at line 2699 (which is the 9/11 prediction) and move up 2699 lines to the very first line in TTTTA.  But we haven't gotten to the 2913th line.  We now need to reverse and move down another 214 lines.  We need to go to line 214.  And what do we find beginning on line 214?

"....as a testimony that he would never again destroy the world by water...."

It's the two "Heed" paragraphs.  We've come "full circle," yet again.  Just beat with it Mr. Gann.

Always suspicious, today is August 29, 2017.  That date is enumerated in the above excerpt.  And on the lines contiguous to that date we find the acrostic/telestic word "water" spelled in red, as if, again, confirming meaning of the narrative.  

That the Lord will not destroy the world by water is comforting given the Texas floods.  But there is a troubling prophecy. What we find on that exact cumulative line number 217 on which today's date 8/29/2017 appears is this:

 

"...those who did not believe and destroy the world by fire."

*** ***

I don't think the Tao Device is proving the niftiness of the author or his ability to predict.  I think it means exactly what WD Gann is beating us over the head with; the substance of his prediction.

This is a message meant for our time, the time of the 266th Pope, in my opinion.  Maybe his prediction (or is it the Bible's prediction or both) is wrong.  Maybe not. 

I found the above circle back to the prediction of "destroy the world by fire today, August 29, 2017.

And today, August 29, 2017, North Korea buzzed Japan with a nuclear payload capable missile.

A synchronicity, much of which you can take the time to recreate...or you can dismiss without effort.

A Synchronicity from the Map of Time and Robert Gordon's 7 days

Heretofore and on many occasions, I've cautioned I am equally as unable to work the WD Gann "Map of Time" as I am confident of its integrity as I've modeled it.  That may be changing.

Setting the stage.  Comparing the most important lesson of WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air", that being the mathematic structure of "Robert Gordon's 7 Days," to the mathematic structure of the MOT, I find that the former suggests a change to the latter.

A synchronicity that has occurred this morning suggests I am on the correct path.

Robert Gordon, in a plain reading of the "7 days," circled the earth at the latitude of New York City in 7 days (forget the dual complications that he traveled in the direction of the earths rotation and the five hours between the completion of the circle in Canada vs New York City).  7 days or 168 hours.  The MOT as configured, 168 years when attributing two days per line.

It has always troubled me that there were 2 days attributed for every line, but three factors compelled me to configure it with two days per line.  First, the poem "tid bits' on, notably, page 45.  It suggested not simply a doubling and redoubling of efforts but a doubling and redoubling of the 15341 line structure of TTTTA.  And so I did; double the whole structure and also 'appointed' two days per line.  Second, and as a result, a great synchronicity occurred.  Prompted by a similar methodology found in the Nicholas Cage/Ryne Douglas Pearson movie "Knowing " I found that the day, September 11, 2001, fell on exactly the line number of the MOT that specified the number of innocent lives that were lost on that date.  Third, when you follow the link to the "great synchronicity," you'll see I discovered and posted the date I made that discovery; it was September 11, 2015.  Check the date of that essay.  That was a real time experience that I had and you can re prove it just by reading the date stamp on that essay.

But the MOT, configured with 2 days per line, didn't work....and I proved that as well.  I studied 88 years of great disasters and tried to correlate them with dates in the MOT.  Many, many were close to describing the number of fatalities that occurred in those events; but the exercise was not satisfying.  And then there was my great mistake.  I derived several acrostic/telestic encoded messages suggesting great Pacific Coast earthquakes and a Yellowstone Supervolcano events in 2016.  They did not occur.

I remain confident these calamities will occur but most geologists, I speculate, would say they are eventualities given enough time.  Its the "when" and the clues in the MOT do not tell me the "when."  This episode in my research convinced me I will only know the "when" upon discovering how the MOT actually works.  Mr. Gann didn't paint a verbal picture for those who do not know the math or who do not want to work to find the answer according the math.  The great golfer Ben Hogan used to say the the answer is in the dirt, meaning you have to spend the time on the practice range.  In this endeavor, the answer is in the math.  Mr. Gann does not paint a picture for the lazy.  You must find it in the math.

Recap, I'm comparing the structure of RG's 7 days to the MOT in the last couple days and am struck (again) by the 168; 168 hours and 168 years, respectively.  168 or 1/15th of the significant number 2520.  The smallest number into which each of the 9 single digits can be divided to produce a whole number.  Also, the Biblical "Great Week" considered by many as a key to prophecy.  Math and prophecy.

The Robert Gordon lesson suggested to me that I re consider the MOT as being configured as a day per line; not two days per line.  Reconfiguration destroys the "9/11/2001 and innocent lives" synchronicity.  No way around it.  If the MOT is denominated in 1 day per line, that synchronicity never occurred.  Or did it?  Mr. Gann embedded in TTTTA many unmistakeable details of the movie "Knowing."  Mr. Gann intended that one of the greatest events in the life of this nation be the "hook" that binds me to the MOT.  But I'm still confronted with MOT not being predictive (other than 9/11/2001) when configured at 2 days per line.

Today's synchronicity.  Consider September 11, 2001 performed two purposes for Mr. Gann.  First, it hooked an obsessive finite mathematician onto discovering the MOT.  But second, it anchors the beginning date (page 78 of TTTTA):

We must "begin right."  The anchor.

Today I woke up resolved that the correct beginning date of the MOT should be 9/11/2001 and the MOT should be denominated in a day per line.  From that, a quick math calculation.

In the original MOT, we found 9/11/2001 on cumulative line 2699, chapter line number 279 (2699+279=2978 considered 2977 innocent lives lost since there are 2 days on that line):

Now, consider the MOT re appointed as a day per line with line 2699 as the beginning.  Well, what is today?  It is August 24, 2017 and there are 5826 days between 9/11/2001 and today.  So, I back up 5826 lines in the MOT.  Above line 2699, there are only 2699 lines to the first line of the book.  So I count up 2699 lines and then start counting down the residual 3,127 lines.  And what do I find on line 3127?

To me, having invested the last three years of my life (not to speak of having read TTTTA for the first time some 42 years ago, a synchronicity in itself) in understanding TTTTA, this occurrence dwarfs any discovery of the past three years.

Beginning on exactly line 3127 above, you find spelled the word "PI."  Pi, the mathematic substance of the circle.  That was the first synchronicity I discovered today.  Or was it just a coincidence and I'm over reacting...again?  After all, "Pi" is just two letters and an acrostic word Pi is hardly an improbable acrostic word to find in random text.

No, it is not a coincidence.  Read those two paragraphs which the word "Pi" straddles.  They are on page 78, the page cited above on how to "begin right."  The math exercise has brought me back to the instruction that gave rise to the math exercise.  It is a circle of logic and math.  It is not a coincidence.  It was both predicted and intended.

Moreover again, an inquiring mind would read, intently, pages 76-80.  I did even though I've read them 10s of times if not hundreds of times before.  The elements of his method are:

• History repeats
• Curve of the future
• Begin right
• Determine the cycle

The synchronicity is that it happened today.  I awoke resolved to appoint a day for a line and begin with September 11, 2001.  And it led me to Pi and back to WD Gann's method of forecasting.  That would not have worked neither yesterday nor tomorrow.

***

This is a very convoluted essay.  It is an ad hoc notation, its for me.  If 200 people read it, maybe 20 will understand the MOT context and I expect maybe two or three will possess the will and knowledge of my work to work it out for themselves.  Indeed, "The general public is not ready for it and probably would not understand or believe it..." to borrow from the above.  Personally working it out is the only way to understand.  Words cannot create clear understanding.  Only math is the language 'men and countries can agree upon' again to borrow.  And I doubt anyone will get to that point, the point where I am (presuming it is a valuable point at which I have arrived).  I am only at a beginning.

Res ipsa loquitur
