The Spiral Calendar by Christopher L. Carolan is a groundbreaking work in market cycle theory, blending ancient timekeeping, Fibonacci ratios, and lunar rhythms into a compelling framework for forecasting financial markets and societal shifts. Winner of the 1992 Charles H. Dow Award, this book stands as one of the most original and daring approaches to market timing ever published.
Carolan introduces the concept of the Spiral Calendar, which aligns lunar months (synodic cycles) and Fibonacci sequences to identify recurring time intervals between major turning points in markets—and even historical human events. Rather than rely on standard linear calendars, the Spiral Calendar accounts for the natural timing rhythms that govern both price action and collective behavior.
With detailed case studies—such as the 1929 crash, 1987 Black Monday, and other critical tops and bottoms—Carolan demonstrates how spiral timing patterns can reveal unseen structure in what appears to be market chaos.
