2012 summit - Starting Thu. eve. and ending on Mon. morn.
Foundation for the Study of Cycles Annual Firebird Summit 2009
-2012 promises to be the most
exciting, provocative, and informative series that the
Foundation has ever developed in its 70 year history!
At the Summit, we will be launching our new online real-time cycles prediction network -
What you can expect to learn from Global Watch Network - (GWN)
The purpose of any science is to validate reality.
To explain and validate or repudiate any reality of "prophecy" or "science" is the object of FSC's new Global
Watch Network as the planet heads toward 2012 and beyond and to track how these scenarios play out.
We should be able to tell very quickly if we are on a road to a worst case, best case, middle case
scenario, and assess any of these given potential changes we're seeing based on real-time cycles work.
GWN will be live, and webcast in real-time, with timely reports, and live newscasts.
As occurrences come across the wire GWN will delve into our archives (Cycles
Magazine, etc.) to see if we have already studied a cycle of this type of event.
This is to determine what that cycle may be and to
see if we can to help predict the potentiality for the next event along the same lines based on what has already happened to date.
GWN will be an interactive, multi-lingual, multi-disciplinary, dynamic global information source.
"It's intriguing that the Foundation is investigating various types of
cycles, and their sequences and synchronies, along with prophecies and
predictions, using scientific methods and tools to validate, refute and
harness such phenomena."...TRB
From our archives of decades of research and the predictive modeling software developed
by the Foundation we can now discover and see ahead to what no one has yet discovered or seen.
As you will discover with us, change comes in cycles, and the future is here.
Among the data series we will be studying and tracking we are including, but are
not limiting to: flu data, world militaries, world debt, crime statistics, education, health care, drugs and recovery,
alcohol consumption and production, grains produced for alcohol consumption, environmental consumption, banking, monies invested, the
dollar volume of global investments, who has and controls the money, Dow Jones Index, gold, Forex, commodities, and much, much more.
"There is a tide in the affairs of men. which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune; omitted, all the voyage of their life Is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat, and we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures."
~ Julius Caesar Act 4, scene 3, 218–224
NASA- March 10, 2006: "It's official: Solar minimum has arrived. Sunspots have all but
vanished. Solar flares are nonexistent. The sun is utterly quiet. Like the quiet before a storm. This week researchers announced that a storm is coming--the most intense solar maximum in fifty years."
http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2006/10mar_stormwarning.htm
The Astrophysical Journal -March 5, 2009: "Sunspot activity is highly variable and challenging to forecast. Yet
forecasts are important, since peak activity has profound effects on major geophysical phenomena including space weather (satellite
drag, telecommunications outages) and has even been correlated speculatively with changes in global weather patterns...we forecast
that cycle 24 will reach its maximum in December 2012..."http://www.iop.org/EJ/abstract/0004-637X/693/2/1173
Foundation for the Study of Cycles - October 4, 2009: "When we began researching "2012" with our cycles
software and correlating our solar flare predictions, we were interested. But when we found that other solar flare reports also point
to December 2012 - the Mayan Calendar date - we became very interested."
In this seminar we are going to begin to learn how to think predictively, not
prophetically, to learn to examine unfolding current physical events and prophecy in the light of our predictive abilities. We
feel this has become vitally important due the confluence of cycles that our decades-old predictive science is showing us. We feel
strongly that now it is important to understand where prophecy may be right on and where it may be totally off the mark as scientists
and ancient writings agree in telling us that we are within the greatest change of an era. The "2012" specter looms before us. Is it doorway or doom? Or just another Hollywood movie?
"There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea
whose time has come".

The Foundation is proud to announce this series as a continuing part of the now famous Firebird Elite Lecture Series titled, "Beyond 2012: The Imperfect Storm?"
Topics covered will include, but not be limited to: Prophecy, Prediction, Cycles, Nostradamus' work, 2012, the Mayan Calendar,
Edgar Cayce's work, the Pyramids, Wealth & Money, Astrology, Solar Flares, Near Earth Objects, Governments, and, Cycle Synchronies.
"Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored."
-Aldus Huxley
The Quatrains of Nostradamus with be examined in the context of modern
cycle theory. In 1984 a book was published "Nostradamus: Key to the Future." This book was edited and co-authored by
the Foundation's Research Director, Richard T. Mogey. Richard was commissioned for this project by one of his former
employers who was one of the most active private gold traders at the time. This trader, who had an open and interested mind in methods of prediction, took an interest in Nostradamus' writings.
He took Richard off the gold desk for four months and had him working face to face with Renuncio Boscolo
who to this day, is considered one of the world's foremost authorities on Nostradamus. Boscolo possessed an original 1569 edition of
the 1558 work that was published by Nostradamus himself. Richard Mogey, who speaks both French and Italian, translated from the
original French. Boscolo spoke both French and Italian and he gave his remarkable interpretations from the printed source. Richard
Mogey has no doubt the Nostradamus's work has message of cycles within it. Hear the story from Mr. Mogey himself who worked from the
very volume that may have had Nostradamus's fingerprints upon it, and messages about our future within it.
The emphasis of the Summits will be about the future, not just the financial future, which will of course be
covered in great detail, both globally and regionally, but also the future of mankind on this planet, because, without a planet,
there is no financial future, is there? On the Internet there is increasing buzz about 2012, the Mayan Calendar, approaching
asteroids, and, the "end of the world". BUT...

How do the cycles of history relate to cycles of prophecy? What is the difference
between prophecy and prediction? How would cycles impact employment or education if they were well known? Our models will go
to 2037, the next 25 years, and beyond. We are going to look at the asset clock and more.
The seminar series is also to help us to prepare for the worst, though the worst
usually never happens. Solar flares, geomagnetic storms, disturbances, what to do, what are the scenarios, where could we go if
something were to happen?
Based on the overwhelming evidence on the Internet, the History Channel and other programs, popular books and more, there
is an ever increasing interest in the concept of 2012, thanks to the phenomenon of the Mayan Calendar. Hardly anyone has not heard of
the Mayan Calendar. We will examine these prophecies in light of the science of prediction, bearing in mind that prophecy could be
rightly called the science of time.
The study of cycles is the science of prediction. We want to learn predictively, not prophetically.
Prophecy implies some kind of a Divine connection, or channel from God, so to speak, whereas, the study of cycles is based on
mathematics and computer programs. The derivation of cycles and the re-synthesis of cycles to predict the future, as studied at the
Foundation for the Study of Cycles, enable us to give an objective viewpoint of "prophecies".
We do not wish to get involved in the controversy regarding different religions and their prophecies, but
we feel these prophecies can be profitably examined in context of the science of prediction. In doing so, we may be able to discern
which prophecies may be more likely than others to manifest in a given time frame. For example, hardly anyone will dispute that
Nostradamus, in his writings, had predicted that there would be three anti-Christs.
As an example, practically speaking, it is obvious that there is hardly time for a third anti-Christ after
Napoleon and Hitler before a coming "end of the world" in 2012. According to one view of Biblical prophecy, the anti-
Christ is a man who creates a one world government, creates a one world currency, and basically takes over the entire planet
as the third anti-Christ. We just don't see that happening in the next two years(?)
The science of prediction should be able to set a reality check on the world's prophecies
that have been around for some time, up to hundreds, if not thousands of years.
The Mayan Calendar will also be examined in a way that will enable you to
understand the workings of the Mayan system and why it will "end" in 2012!
The Purpose of the Seminar to enable each one of us to leave here with a new
viewpoint and the ability to think in a predictive manner, and we plan on giving you tools to do just that. Do we discount prophecy? Far from
it. We believe that because of the current conditions our science of prediction is showing us, there is a major web of confluences
that indicate major changes may indeed be just around the corner.
What are those changes, and where are they most likely to manifest? That, we think, is the job of cycles
study. So we want to leave prophecy to the prophets, but we also want to use our ability of prediction to gauge and grade the
prophecies in the context of current and evolving conditions. We invite you to follow our thinking and follow our seminar and to take
what you can from it.
Without a planet there can be no investing. The seminar will be broken into several, fractally related
concepts. The concept of the Global, the concept of the National, the concept of the Regional, and the concept of the Individual.
These overlaying areas are very similar to doing cycles analysis where you first look at the yearly cycles in context with the monthly cycles, in context with the weekly cycles, in context with the daily cycles.
In doing this seminar we will also examine some potentials for the Foundation and where we could be going in the next twenty or thirty years in a positive way. How do we apply the science of cycles, how do we apply this technology? What fields are most fertile for development?
In terms of social change we wish to examine some of the works that have already been published by members of our society, such as William Houston who visited us during our 1996 conference at which Lady Margaret Thatcher was our key speaker. In his 1997 book, "Through the Whirlwind" he describes the "Framework of Scenarios" in a thesis of events that are coming true now. He also noted that if we were to have a solar pulse that would knock out our computers and data services we would need to be prepared for this and consider what political changes would be mandated by various scenarios.
We will take an in-depth look at the potential of solar activity and we will also be talking about the astrophysics behind the potential for solar flares and their destructiveness if
that happens. We'll be studying things on a scenario basis talking about potential scenarios from the best case to the worst case
if events occur. We strive to be very solution oriented.
"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."
-Arthur C. Clarke
Dewey's studies of international wars were also sited in Houston's book,
as they often come at the peak years of solar cycles, while civil wars often come at the trough years. Dewey said that solar
eruptions could be construed as a cause for conflict, insanity, mental illness and suicides. In 2007 the Foundation published
projections for the Iraq War that forecast the projected US soldier and Iraqi civilian deaths. The original page is
archived here.
Houston also predicted a paradigm shift. We would like to get ready for this
paradigm. Areas of health care, security and environment will become market leaders in this new era and there will be a potential for
millions of new businesses to be formed. We believe that we can help that because he said that it has to do with the cybernetic
revolution, which is computers, where we could foresee putting tens of thousands of people to work helping us to gather data for the
data warehouse on which the Foundation of the future needs to build.
Additionally we will be discussing the future of the Foundation. The object of
Project Firebird is not only to resurrect the Foundation's works but to digitize it and apply it to the planet. Our founder, Edward
R. Dewey, anticipated a resurgence of his work in this decade in the book "Cycles," written in 1991. He pointed this out through his
son, and we are experiencing that resurgence now, and rightly so. Dewey was able to predict that because cycles, after all, is the
science of prediction. It should not surprise us that this was in his ability to see.
Prediction is big business still today. There are programs out on the
market such as SPSS. Predictive analytics is a major field now. Businesses are spending hundreds of millions to predict the next big
thing, the next color fashion, the next hit song, where people will be spending their money next year, next month, the next
three to five years.
The future of the Foundation is assured because the data we are accumulating and the publications we are
constructing feed the ever present interest in the future. That is what the Foundation for the Study of Cycles is about, discovering
the future. So with that, we invite you to join us and enjoy this exciting adventure.
We also see a potential for a practical application of cycles. For example, in
our initial studies that we have on airplane crashes, we have noticed a very strong, head above shoulders, 64 day cycle of fatalities
in airplane disasters. This doesn't mean, of course, that every 64 days there is a major plane crash. It means that increased plane
crashes occur in intervals that may be a multiple of 64 days, and charts show a 64 day cycle peaking when there was a loss of life,
whether it be many lives or just one. However, in studying the events surrounding these crashes, it is easily noted that these
crashes were only fatal on these 64 day periods when the pilots or responsible parties refused to take in account the element of
weather. For example, crashes resulted when planes flew into a lightning storm, or tried to land on poorly lit runways in bad
weather. If we could get the 64 day cycle understood and generally accepted as a cycle of airplane crashes, we could give
alerts that a 64 day cycle was coming up on a given date, and according to our studies the next likelihood of a plane crash would, for
example, be in the North Atlantic. It is a warning like a weather forecast, that on that 64th day, if airplanes are going into a
certain area, and if they are encountering weather, they are sailing right into the storm from which they could potentially be
diverted to avoid disaster.
The coming global economic storm will develop from current conditions. The
United States has a 30% school drop-out rate and a 10% unemployment rate with 25% of teenagers unemployed. This is part and parcel of
a scenario will continue to grow into 2012 to 2016. Personal income, real estate, and more will be affected, but as we will show,
economic conditions are cyclical.
A major theme of this conference is to introduce the new "Techsignal Academia" which we are unveiling for the academic world. Academia is designed to teach
academics the potential of studying cycles in a particular field. We have identified cycles in all areas of phenomena. In
the information you will have to take home with you are more than 4,000 cycles
that have been discovered, with who discovered them, as well as when and where it was published.
The second side of Project Academia is to gather and upload the world's data. Data is the lifeblood
of the Foundation. It is only from data that we identify and organize the discovery of cycles. Therefore we are moving now toward
what you might call the "Foundation for the Discovery of Cycles," not just the study, but the discovery of cycles. An
interesting aspect of cycles is Dewey's work on cycle synchronies and when cycles we find cluster. If cycles we identify that
clusters in one area also cluster in another area then we can count the cycles in clusters that are synchronized and those that
cluster sequentially. This is the timing of cycle synchronies.
This will enable people in academics, colleges, universities, any study, any school using our science and
mathematics to easily indentify different phenomena ranging from the study of birds, to the study of weather, to the study of
earthquakes, volcanoes, and so forth. Not just major earthshaking events, but simple things can be studied such as the changes in
temperature over a period of several weeks in a given city, or the changes in lake levels for the farmers. There are a lot of
practical applications for cycles, one of which would be to help farmers in producing their crops. For example, one of our members
has commissioned our organization to build cycles around weather conditions in the Des Moines, Iowa area. We are currently working on
that project.
One of the uses of cycles, is to build the software itself into a ROM chip that will enable analysis
to be integrated into control programs. One could predict changes in building temperatures, for example, to interface with
thermostats. We have been able to demonstrate 70 to 80 percent accuracy in predicting temperature changes up to 24 to 36 hours in
advance. The thermostats could drive the heating, ventilation and air conditioning units to change them in advance resulting in
considerable savings. The same could be done with airplane guidance systems that would have a ROM chip that could warn of cyclic hot
spots. The same thing could be done with heart patients with
di-systolic and systolic irregularities being predicted up to 36 hours in advance with
remarkable accuracy.
We will also talk about some other interesting applications for cycles. Some
applications may even seem almost like science fiction as we look forward with our studies. Several of them will be discussed
by our resident PhD and astrophysicist, Dr. Niels (Duke) Winsor, who will detail a potential deflecting device that would have the
possibility to deflect Near Earth Objects (NEOs) depending on their location and their penetration of Earth's atmosphere. Dr.
Winsor specializes in modeling fluid mechanics and we look forward to using many of his theories here at the Foundation.
Another idea we've had here is the possibility of helping NASA and the space
administrations of other countries in identifying NEOs by observing the disturbances in cycles which could be occasioned by the
disturbances and anomalies in gravitational fields of incoming NEO's. This is a fairly abstract concept and bears explanation
and we will be discussing that more as we move into the seminar as well as the creation of a virtual telescope.
We will be breaking into workshops where people can discuss some of these
insights. We hope to spur new concepts, new ideas, and we invite people to give us feedback on ideas they might come up with, for
they could be future studies for the Foundation itself. Richard Mogey will be talking on his work with Nostradamus and the Quatrains
that may pertain to some of the work he is seeing with the cycles. David Katzmire will be discussing his work in the area he has
named, "Kalarythms" and the potential applications to social conditions as we move toward the year 2037. We didn't cut
it off at 2037 for a reason, we just want to show that there is something beyond 2012 as a message of hope, as it were. Jake
Bernstein will be speaking, as well as Mitch Rabin, from "A Better World" Radio and TV, as well as private investors
and other experts in various fields.
Global warming and all the ongoing controversial areas of inquiry on the
planet are what we want to put in the context of cycles. An eventual purpose of the seminar is to create a book that will come
out of the series that will be a statement of the Foundation in its current state with Project Firebird, to describe where we
are headed, and why we are here. We will examine the founders of
the Foundation for the Study of Cycles and look at who they were with in-depth biographies. Our founder, Edward R. Dewey,
would surely want us to give credit to the people who helped him along the way. These include many statesmen, heads of business,
heads of government and we will be telling their story to answer: who they were, what was their vision, why did they agree to be on
the board to start the Foundation, and if they were on the board now what would they want us to be do.
We are pursuing the concepts explored by German scientist, Chladni, who
transformed sound into shapes by developing "Chladni Plates" that respond to sound vibrations to reshape the sand into remarkable
patterns. Some of the sound and visions that cyclic vibrations can produce may somehow be tied to the new physics of the production
of the physical universe.
Cycles and vibration theory could play a major part in the physics string theory or the unified field
theory also known as "the theory of everything." Exploring the concept of vibrations leads us to the works of Napoleon
Hill whose book, "Think and Grow Rich: The Master Key to Riches," explains and regards thoughts as things. This work was
influential in the expansion of the Foundation.
