The Tunnel Thru The Air Or, Looking Back From 1940

The document provides a summary of the 1927 science fiction novel "The Tunnel Thru the Air" by William Delbert Gann. It describes the plot of the novel, which depicts an imaginary war from 1930 to 1932 that some believe was meant to predict the Great Depression. The document also discusses various encoding and hidden meaning theories about the novel, such as dates and events in the imaginary war corresponding to astrological transits and the Fibonacci sequence being depicted on the book's cover. Finally, it examines theories that Gann encoded financial and mathematical concepts through the novel's page numbers, quotes, and other elements.

The Tunnel Thru the

Air; Or, Looking


Back from 1940

The Tunnel Thru the Air, Or, Looking Back


from 1940 is a science fiction novel
written by market forecaster William
Delbert Gann in 1927.[1][2][3] In the
Foreword, Gann hinted that this book is
more than just a novel because it
"contains a valuable secret, clothed in
veiled language. Some will find it the first
time they read it, others will see it in the
second reading, but the greatest number
will find the hidden secret when they read
it the third time." Some traders believe
Gann has encoded some techniques of
financial astrology into this book,[4][5][6]
and some even claim that they have
devoted a lifetime to study this text.[7][8]

Plot
The story is roughly divided into two
parts: before and after 1927, the year in
which it was written. The story began in
the late evening of 9 June 1906, when
the protagonist Robert Gordon was born.
The early part of the book is mostly
about the early life of Robert, including
how he found and lost his true love,
Marie Stanton, who was born on 6
October 1908.[9] The loss of Marie
Stanton inspired Robert to become the
greatest inventor in history. After 1927,
the book describe an imaginary war from
April 1930 to July 1932, in which Robert
single-handedly help the United States to
win with his amazing inventions.

The imaginary war and its


hidden meaning
The imaginary war vs. the
Great Depression
Some writers,[4][10] including W.D.’s
grandson John L. Gann,[11] think that the
imaginary war in the book was a
prediction of the Second World War.
However, the war in the book was from
1930 to 1932, whereas the Second World
War started about ten years later.
Therefore, unless Gann was making a
very serious mistake, he could not be
referring to it. Since there was no war
against the US in 1930 in actual history,
some believe that it was Gann’s
prediction for the Great Depression in the
form of a metaphor.[12][13] Below is a
table comparing the timeline of the
imaginary war and the Great Depression:

Transits to the 1776 US


independence chart
Bonnie Hill[5] found that all the turning
points of the imaginary war in the book
was related to transits to the US chart,
mostly by Mars. Hill also noted that Gann
was using the Gemini-rising chart of the
US Independence, which was also used
by other famous astrologers.[14] (* Note:
the transits with Pluto are crossed out
below, because it was not yet discovered
by 1927 when the book was written.)

Encoding techniques
Title

Petter Ivar Amundsen[15][16] believes that


the title of the book is an anagram. He
replaced the “1940” in the title with the
following letters:

The number “0” is replaced by the


letter “O”.
The remaining numbers 1, 4, 9 are
worked in the following ways:
1 x 9 x 4 = 36 , 3 x 6 = 18 , and the
18th letter is “R”
1 & 9 are “19”, and the 19th letter
is “S”
9 + 4 = 13, and the 13th letter is
“M”
He rearranged the letters, and the title
became “From the Lunar Return, Looking
back to His Mother”. Amundsen noted
that Marie disappeared on 5 June 1927,
when the Moon was in Leo, and she
reappeared on 30 August 1932, when the
Moon was in Leo again.

He also noted that the date of the


Foreword was 9 May 1927, which was
1940 days before the end of the novel, 30
August 1932.

Book cover

The original 1927 book cover depicts


some planes flying around a tunnel in the
sky. Paul Nipperess[17] notices that the
number and location of planes displays
some Fibonacci relationships.

Fake quotes

There are a number of quotes in the book


which are unclear if they are really said or
written by the person.[7] For example, on
page 191, Gann “quoted” Pythagoras in
the following passage: “‘There are in
woman’s eyes two sorts of tears, the one
of grief; the other of deceit.’ I think that is
because there are two kinds of men, one
who appreciates love and honor and
gives sympathy; the other kind who is
selfish, expects something for nothing
and must meet with deceit.” Brian
Sklenka[7][12] thinks that Gann was trying
to draw the readers’ attention to the
Pyathagoras, and the numbers “two” and
“one”, indirectly hinting that the octave
theory discovered by the Greek
philosopher.

Similarly, on page 192, Gann included the


following “quote” from Southey, “There
are three things a wise man will not trust,
the wind, the sunshine of an April day
and a woman’s plighted faith.” Again, it is
an association of the British poet and the
number “three”, which is an indirect
reference to his famous story Goldilocks
and the Three Bears. Some esoteric
writers like S. J. Pasagic[18] believes that
the story is a hidden reference to the Law
of Three (see the teachings of George
Gurdjieff).

Page numbers

Many believe that Gann used the pages


numbers in the 1927 original edition to
encode some of his secrets.[19][6] Here
are some examples that the page
number is related to the information on
that page:

Weather forecasting along


the Mississippi River
In 1994, retired engineer Bonnie Lee Hill
did a public seminar in which she
revealed some astrological methods
concealed in the Tunnel Thru the Air.[5]
Some of the trading rules used by Gann
are related to the weather in the area
around the Mississippi River, and they
are listed below:

go up.

It should be noted that the last rule ("Dry


Cotton Farmer") was actually not
mentioned at all in the book. It was
deduced by Hill after she discovered the
first two rules. Here are some actual
examples from Hill’s lecture:
Wet Cotton Farmer (Uranus-
Neptune)

In 1735, geocentric Uranus opposite


Neptune. Over ninety percent of New
Orleans was under water. The entire
region was drastically affected by the
flooding in the Delta.
In 1762, geocentric Uranus 135° with
Neptune. This was a major flood. For
instance,the flood level in the city of
Cincinnati was up 80 feet. The top of a
church steeple was the only thing
sticking out of the water in the little
town of Cincinnati.
In 1821 (geocentric Uranus conjunct
Neptune), we had another major flood.
They called it the “worst flood of the
century”. The reporters said that they
had no words to describe the damage
from this flood. They couldn’t even
estimate the cost of the damage.
People decided give major sections of
land back to the Mississippi River.
They would not farm the land, and they
would not build towns on the land. The
people realized that the Mississippi
River would always “win”.
The next flood in the table occurred in
1881 (geocentric Uranus trine
Neptune). Please notice that we had a
major flood in 1881, and another major
flood in 1882. Due to retrogradation,
we had the same aspect (geocentric
Uranus trine Neptune) on Feb 26, 1881
and April 8, 1882. There are cases in
which we had major floods three years
in a row because the same aspect
occurred in the spring of all three
years. The floods in 1881-1882 were
very famous. Mark Twain was alive
during that time. He actually went
down the Mississippi River on a steam
boat, and said the Mississippi River
was 75 miles wide at that time. The
channel of the Mississippi River was
75 miles wide.
The next flood in the table occurred in
1907 (geocentric Uranus opposite
Neptune). This is the flood mentioned
by Gann in The Tunnel Thu the Air.
Please notice that we had a flood in
1907, and in 1908. Why? The same
aspect occurred in the spring of both
years.
The next big flood occurred in 1927
(geocentric Uranus 150 Neptune). This
is the one that Gann predicts in The
Tunnel Thru the Air. They had a late
spring and a major flood. There was
over $284 million in damage. It was
estimated that 240 billion gallons of
water came down the Mississippi River
that spring. They had 1.8 million acres
of land under water. A lot of people
feel that this was one of the major
causes of the Great Depression; the
flood destroyed the economy through
the Mississippi basin. This totally
destroyed the cotton crops.
The next major flood occurred in 1935
(geocentric Uranus 135 Neptune). The
same aspect occurred in the spring of
1936, and a second flood occurred.
The flood in 1936 caused $270 million
in damage.
In 1943, geocentric Uranus trine
Neptune. A major flood occurred which
caused $172 million in damage.In
1973, we saw geocentric Uranus semi-
square Neptune. A major flood caused
$420 million of damage. October
cotton hit a high price of 99 cents at
this time.In 1979, a major flood
occurred. Geocentric Uranus was
semi-sextile Neptune on March 31,
1979.
In 1993, geocentric Uranus was
conjunct Neptune on February 2. What
happened in 1993? The same thing
that occurred in 1821, approximately
173 years earlier. Once again, the
Mississippi River looks like an inland
lake. Many, many acres are under
water and they are currently discussing
buying the land from the farmers,
giving it back to the river, and saying
we won’t grow crops there again and
we won’t build buildings there again.
The ticket for this flood at the time of
the seminar was $12 billion.
Poor Cotton Farmer (Jupiter-
Neptune)

In 1844, cotton had an extreme low of


5 cents a pound. Geocentric Jupiter
was semi-sextile Neptune on April 27,
1844. Since this is rain during the
growing season, you will find this class
of aspects can happen a little later in
the season. It’s not required that they
be more like January or February. They
can be more like March–April.
On March 2, 1851, geocentric Jupiter
was 135 degrees from Neptune.
Cotton hit an extreme low of 8.25
cents in January 1852.
On April 7, 1857, geocentric Jupiter
was semi-sextile Neptune. Cotton hit
an extreme low of 9.25 cents in
January 1858.In 1871, cotton hit the
lowest low it had ever hit since 1860
(13.50 cents).
On April 8, 1871, geocentric Jupiter
was sextile Neptune.In 1873, cotton hit
another major low of 13.80. Geocentric
Jupiter was trine Neptune onMarch 3,
1873.
Cotton hit another major low (6.20
cents) in 1896. Geocentric Jupiter was
semi-square Neptune on February 26,
1896.
Geocentric Jupiter was square
Neptune on March 14, 1904. This was
a major low in cotton prices. On July
19, cotton sold for 6.85. The cotton
farmers were so disgusted that they
burned the cotton in the fields. They
did not even go to the effort of
harvesting it. Hundreds of cotton
farmers abandoned their farms and
left. It was not worth cotton farming
again. No one would ever want cotton
ever again. They gave up.
Very low cotton prices occurred in
1920. Geocentric Jupiter was conjunct
Neptune on March 8, 1920.
On April 17, 1926, geocentric Jupiter
was opposite Neptune. In March 1927,
cotton hit a low of 11.80. The
government reports showed a record
crop.
Cotton hit a major low of 25.20 cents
in December 1970. Geocentric Jupiter
was semi-sextile Neptune on April 29,
1970.Cotton hit a major low of 26.59 in
December 1972.
On March 10, 1972, geocentric Jupiter
was again semi-sextile Neptune.Cotton
hit a major low of 29.99 in July–
August 1986.
On March 16, 1986, geocentric Jupiter
was sextile Neptune.
Dry Cotton Farmer (Saturn-
Neptune)

In 1761, we had a major drought in the


country. Geo Saturn was 135 degrees
fromNeptune on April 13, 1761. The
next year, geo Saturn was again 135
degrees from Neptune onFebruary 6,
1792. We had another major drought in
1762.
On April 13, 1816, geocentric Saturn
was sextile Neptune. There was a
major drought and crop failure in 1816.
On January 14, 1860, geocentric
Saturn was inconjunct Neptune. The
year 1860 is famous for the Kansas
drought. Hundreds of people moved to
Kansas tostart over. They planned to
start farming, and make a fortune.
Many of these farmers gave up and left
Kansas after the drought of 1860. They
said you just can’t make it in Kansas.
On March 11, 1863, geocentric Saturn
was opposite Neptune. There was a
major drought.Cotton hit the highest
price it had ever seen 91 cents. That is
91 cents in 1863 dollars. Why was
cotton so high? First, there was a
major drought. Second, the Civil War
was disrupting the economy.
On February 1, 1869, geocentric Saturn
was trine Neptune. In 1869, cotton hit a
high of 35 cents before a huge decline
in price.
On January 31, 1903, geocentric
Saturn was inconjunct Neptune. The
drought was so severe that cotton
farmers planted their crops in a
different manner. There was a little bug
that grew in certain crops, and the
farmers planted those crops next to
the cotton. This little bug was called
the boll weevil, and it decided that
cotton tasted much better than the
other crops. Suddenly, the cotton
farmers had a major boll weevil
infestation. The drought helped to
cause a long-term problem with boll
weevils.
A drought occurred in 1910, and on
January 24 geocentric Saturn was
square Neptune.
A drought occurred in 1930, and on
December 29, 1929 geocentric Saturn
was trine Neptune.
Geocentric Saturn was 135 degrees
Neptune on February 21, 1931. A
drought occurred in 1931.
The drought in 1933 was the famous
Oklahoma Dust Bowl. On February 13,
1933, geo Saturn was inconjunct
Neptune.

The Major Motors campaign


From page 197 to 199, the book
described how Robert traded the shares
of a company called “Major Motors”. It is
in fact an alias for General Motors, just
as there is another company in the story
called “Major Electric”, which refers to
General Electric. Quoting from page 197:

“On Sunday, June 19, 1927, Robert


Gordon spent the day studying his charts
and working out his cycles for stocks,
cotton and grain. He was short of Major
Motors and was watching it very closely.
On this day he made a new and great
discovery of a time factor from which he
figured that Major Motors would decline
until about June 30th and then start an
advance which would last until about
September 16th, 1927, when the
Company would be 19 years old and at
that time the stock would reach final high
and would then go down to February to
April, 1929. He figured that the stock
should advance to around 270 by
September 16th and made up his mind to
watch it closely and cover his shorts if it
went down around June 30th, and then
start buying the stock.”

Detailed trades and their


astrological aspects

Bonnie Hill[5] detailed the exact trades


and their related astrological aspects as
below, including both lunar aspects and
transits to the GM incorporation chart on
17 Sep 1908: (* Note: the transits with
Pluto below are crossed out, because it
was not yet discovered by 1927 when the
book was written.)

Regarding this plethora of astrological


aspects, Hill only had the following to
comment:

A major bottom occurs when


geocentric Sun is square natal Saturn.
Gann sells when geocentric Sun is
conjunct the natal Sun, and two
planets are at zero South declination.
Other than that, she did not go further to
separate the wheat from the chaff, and
delineate how other traders could apply
this cluster of seemingly unrelated
aspects to their trading.

Relationship to eclipses

Gann strongly hinted at the astrological


influence when he stated that Major
Motors’ share price would rise during this
period because of “a new and great
discovery of a time factor” which would
make the price to stop declining “about
June 30th”. Daniel Ferrera[22] noted that
there was a total solar eclipse on 29th
June, 1927, and Saturn was going
retrograde. By the middle of September
that year, Saturn had turned direct and
returned to its spot during the eclipse.
Also, this total eclipse fell with the Sun
Square to natal Saturn. This is a
seemingly very negative aspect, but
Ferrera explains that the Natal Saturn
was retrograde, and when a planet is
retrograde, aspects are reversed that
good aspects such as trines and sextiles
become negative and bad aspects such
as squares & oppositions become
positive.

Ferrera also pointed out that, prior to the


first trade on 30 Jun 1927, the total lunar
eclipse on 15 Jun created some negative
transits, because the Moon was in exact
opposition to natal Pluto, and the Sun
Square to the natal Sun. This is why Gann
expected the price to decline into 30 Jun
1927 (except that, of course, Gann could
not have been aware of Pluto, as it was
discovered in 1930).

Relationship to the Gann


angles and the Hexagon chart

As James Smithson noted,[19] Robert


forecasted that Major Motor's share price
would rise between June 30 and
September 16, 1927 due to positive
astrological influences. This is a period
of 78 days, during which he forecast that
the price would rise from 192½ to 270,
which rounds up to 78 points. After a rise
of 78 points in 78 days (i.e. 1×1 Gann
angle) time and price would be squared
and the uptrend would end. Similarly,
Daniel Ferrera[22] noted that the bottom
price of $192½ is in opposition to Jupiter
& Uranus on the Gann Hexagon Chart,
whereas the final price of $270 conjoins
Jupiter and Uranus on the same chart, a
complete 180° movement.

The cotton campaign


From page 195 to 197, the book goes
into details how Robert traded cotton in
1927. Quoting from page 195 of the
book: “After Robert had sold out his
October cotton at 17.30 and his
December cotton at 17.50 on June 10th,
he decided to watch the market very
closely for a few days because he
thought it would go lower. His forecast
indicated last buying level around June
25th. He figured that after this time the
market would go higher until September
5th to 6th, when he figured it would be
final high.”

Relationship to the Wet


Cotton Farmer rule

As indicated in the previous section,


Bonnie Hill[5] noted that Uranus was
inconjunct with Neptune in that Spring,
which would predict that a flood was
coming and the cotton price would go
up.

Relationship to the Gann


angles

Peter Palaskas[23] found that the support


line is related to the 1×1 angle whereas
the resistance is related to the 4×1 angle.

Relationship to eclipses

Peter Palaskas[23] found that the entry


dates are related to the two solar
eclipses on 3rd Jan and 29th Jun 1927.
Declination of major planets
In addition to the ecliptic longitude,
cycles are also found by declination of
the planets.[5] On page 79, Gann wrote,
“History shows that in 916 agriculture in
the British Isles was at its lowest ebb and
that there was great scarcity of wheat
and corn. Very few people were engaged
in tilling the soil on account of wars. The
same conditions prevailed 1000 years
later in 1916 and 1917, when this country
was called on to furnish food to starving
Europe and send men and money to save
their armies from defeat.” Bonnie Hill[5]
explained that the common factor in 916
and 1916 is that geocentric Saturn was
at maximum North declination in March.
Since Saturn’s sidereal year is 29.457
years, it is very uncommon for it to be at
maximum North declination in March.
Like the weather rules above, the
astrological “sign” occurs in the spring.

Also, on page 202, Gann discussed the


great bull market from 1924 through
1927, “He went back into the stock
market and in the great Coolidge Bull
Campaign from 1924 to 1927 was again
a dominant factor in General Motors and
other stocks and was reputed to have
made fifty millions, or more.” Checking
the geocentric ephemeris, and Hill[5]
found that in March–April 1924,
geocentric Jupiter was at max South
declination, and geocentric Uranus in
South declination during all of 1924. On
July 8, 1927 geocentric Jupiter was at 0
North declination, and on May 1, 1927,
geocentric Uranus was at 0 North
declination. The declination of both
planets was “increasing” during the 1924-
1927 bull market.
