The Earth/Sun cycle is a dominant cycle. Next in magnitude, is Saturn (30 years). Mr. Gann considered this, the seventh planet, to represent the key, long term cycle. The question, to use heliocentric or geocentric aspects was answered by Gann with the statement, "Use both I" I, first, use heliocentric as in the examples of the S&P 500 weekly chart.

The following is a letter Mr. Gann wrote in 1954, indicating the use of planetary cycles.

1931 April 16 to August 7, 1953

Mars has made 12 round trips. 1954 October 29

Mars will be opposite or 180 degrees from its place

on April 16, 1931. 1936 October 1 to September 19, 1953

Mars made 9 round trips of 360 degrees each. 1954 December 9

Mars will be 9 1/2 round trips or opposite its place

October 1, 1936. 1940 May 15 to June 12, 1953

Mars made 7 round trips or complex cycles. 1954 April 9

Mars is 7 1/2 cycles or opposite its place on

May 15, 1940

Due to the retrograde position of Mars, it will again be 7 1/2 on July 7 and on August 17, 1954, or the third time in opposition to its own place, which is very important.

1940 August 19 to September 15, 1953

Mars had completed 7 round trips. Note low on Coffee

on that date. 1954 December 4

Mars made 7 1/2 round trips or opposite its own place

on August 19, 1940.

I will conclude this chapter with the following explanation if Mr Ganns analysis of prioe using Soybeans. He states, "The one-half point of the highest selling price and one-half between the high and low are very great because these equal the 45 degree angle or the gravity center. For May Beans these prices are 218 3/8, 240 3/8, 251 7/8, and 319 1/8. On

the weekly or monthly chart, use the date when the extreme high or extreme low is made and draw a 45 degree angle up and down starting from the above halfway points. These angles are very important for determining highs and lows and a change in trend.

From the extreme lows or extreme highs, you add or subtract the proportionate parts of the circle, as given below.

44 added to 360 gives 404. From 404 subtract 90 gives 314, and the degree in the sign in 14 degree Aquarius. 90 degrees or

square from this is 234 or 16 degrees Scorpio.

436 3/4 minus 360 gives 76 3/4, or 16 degrees 45 in the sign Gemini. Subtract 120 gives 16 degrees 45 Aquarius or a price of 316 3/4. A square or 90 degrees from this is 16 degrees 45 Scorpio, price 226 3/4.

The lows of 67 , 68 69 equal 7, 8 and 9 degrees in Gemini. 120 degrees subtracted gives 307, 308 and 309, the triangle points which are 7, 8 and 9 degrees Aquarius. Subtract 90 degrees from these prices gives 217, 218 and 219 or 7, 8 and 9 in Pisces.

131 high, add 180, gives 311 or 11 degrees Aquarius. Subtract 90 gives 221 or 11 degrees Scorpio.

October 5, 1936, futures trading started in Soybeans. The first sale was 120. Add 180 gives 300 or 30 degrees in Capricorn.

218 3/8 is 8 degrees 22 scorpio. Add 90 gives 308 3/8 or 8 1/2 degrees in Aquarius.

240 3/8 is 0 degrees 22 Sagittarius. Add 60 gives 300 3/8. Add 90 gives :30 3/8.

251 7/8 is 12 degrees in Sagittarius. Add 60 gives 311 7/8 or 12 degrees Aquarius. Add 90 gives 348 or 12 degrees Pisces.

1930, Jun high 216. Equals 6 degrees Scorpio. Add 90 gives 306 or 6 degrees Aquarius. Add 225 gives 441, which is the sguare of 21, and 441 is 21 degrees in the sign of Gemini, which is 81 more than 360, the square of 9.

436 3/4, subtract 135, gives 201 3/4 or 1 degree 45 Aquarius. Subtract 180 gives 256 3/4 or 16 degrees 45 Sagittarius. Subtract 225 gives 221 3/4 or 1 degree 45 Sagittarius. Subtract 236 1/4 gives 200 1/4 or 20 degrees 15 Libra. The low on May Beans in February, 1949 was 201 1/2.

344 1/2 subtract 33 3/4 gives 310 3/4 or 10 degrees 45 Aquarius. Subtract 45 gives 299 1/2 or 29 degrees 30 Capricorn.

120, add 90 give 210 or 30 degrees Scorpio. Add 125 gives 255 or 15 degrees Sagittarius. Add 180 gives 300 or 30 degrees Capricorn.

67, add 90 gives 157 or 7 degrees Virgo. Add 135 gives 202 or 22 degrees Libra. Add 180 gives 247 or 7 degrees Sagittarius. Add 225 gives 292 or 22 degrees Capricorn. Add 240 gives 307 or 7 degrees Aquarius. Add 270 gives 337 or 7 degrees Pisces. Add 315 gives 382 or 22 degrees Aries. Add 360 gives 427 of 7 degrees Gemini. Add 271 1/4 gives 438 1/4. High on May beans was 436 3/4. After that high the next extreme low was 201 1/2. Note that 67 plus 125 gives 202, and that one-half of 405 is 202 1/2, and 180 plus 22 1/2 is 202 1/2, which are the mathematical reasons why May Soybeans mede bottom at 201 1/2.

All of the above price levels can be measured in Time Periods of days, weeks and months, and when the time periods come out at these prices, it is important fcr a change in trend, especially if confirmed by the geometrical angles from highs and lows."
