“Cosmic Causation in Geophysics” - W.D. Gann's Reading List

HERE

A reader of this blog recently provided the pdf-softcopy of one of the last three missing titles from W.D. Gann's Reading List: Paul Councel's “Cosmic Causation in Geophysics”. In this 28 page pamphlet of 1945 the author argues that the history of humankind and its future evolution could be plotted by astrological computation: There were “cultural epochs" about 2,160 years long, themselves divisible into recognizable events, and if humans wanted to control the evolution of the earth, and bring it back into cosmic harmony, they would need to follow Mr. Councel's fortean eschatology.

Unlike the title suggests, “Cosmic Causation in Geophysics” has nothing to do with geophysics nor with trading, and is certainly but another incoherent, eclectic and non-relevant trivia in W.D. Gann's long Reading List. Why Mr. Gann advised his students to waste time on such humbug? Didn't he know better?

W.D. Gann's Reading List

In 1946, aged 68, W.D. Gann produced a reading list for his students:

Since Gann’s death in 1955 this reading list has generally been overlooked by Gann enthusiasts because the constituent books have been difficult or expensive to obtain. With the exception of 3 books (see below - highlighted in grey). None of these 3 missing titles is even listed in the Library of Congress Online Catalog. However, copies of all other 76 books from Gann’s recommended reading list are now available free-of-charge and for the benefit of all Gann enthusiasts.
