CYCLIC LAW (Appling mathematics to Time) Cycle Qualities 1 - 9 Index: Find Your Personal Cycle
Time has been one of the most controversial subjects of the ages, to date the greatest minds have failed to thoroughly to define time, except for the superficial explanation that it is a measured duration counted from some observable point.
Time Cycle is defined as;
1. An interval of time during which a characteristic, often regularly repeated event or sequence of events occurs:
2. Also as;
a. A single complete execution of a periodically repeated phenomenon: A year constitutes a cycle of the seasons.
b. A periodically repeated sequence of events: the cycle of birth, growth, and death; a cycle of reprisal and retaliation.
3. The complete orbit of a celestial body.
4. A long period of time; as an age, era or eon.
Time cycles signify a 360 degree circular or elliptical rotation, orbit or journey in time typically of an entity such as a planet or moon. In the case of a planet the precession of the equinoxes, the cycle is determined by the 360 degree shifting of the equinoctial axis. Time cycles can also refer to larger rotations or orbits such as the time it takes for the Earth to make one complete revolution about the Galactic Center of the Milky Way. The periodically repeated sequence of events such as: the cycle of birth, growth, and death of plants, mammals and humans.
In the world around us we can see the operation of all kinds of cycles, events that follow a repeating sequence of connected activity. The changing of the seasons is one example, the movement of water from liquid to vapor to liquid again is another, tides, and so are the cycles of day and night and the changing phases of the moon. Some people believe in a cycle of life, death, and rebirth, but since that is not so easily demonstrated, it has to remain a theory for most people.
There are two significant characteristics of a cycle that are of interest here. One is the repetition of experiences, and the other is the uniqueness or qualities of those repetitions.
Year after year, we can experience the sequence of spring, summer, fall and winter. But every season is different every year whether in different locations or the same ones, and, in spite of the arbitrary dates of the solstices and equinoxes, every season starts and ends according to the apparent whims of Nature. In the animal world we can observe cycles of migration, of hibernation, and physical changes of skin and fur and color. Yet, even though the same animals are involved, each experience in the sequence is always different, both for individual animals and for different animals of the same group.
There are cycles in the lives of human beings, too, some dramatic and some more subtle. Humans have various methods by which they try to predict this sequence, to assist them in planning future activities.
►Horoscopes ►Astrological charts ►Bio-rhythm charts ►Numerological forecasts ►Time cycles software
All of these methods endeavor to correlate the World cycle and your individual cycle as expressed in conjunction with universal cycles and conditions. All modalities recognize the cyclic nature of the entire universe, as day and night, as changing phases of the moon, seasons, weather patterns and life experience such as; physical changes, but emotional and mental changes as well. Moreover these personal changes may also have dramatic effects on other people. Maximizing personal effectiveness and reducing anxiety is the objective of all the various methods because physical changes, even the most natural ones, always create a certain amount of stress, because it is the natural response of the body to resist change.
Mankind has come to the inevitable conclusion, based ideas about stress, that the symptoms of menopause, and all other symptoms of cyclic change, are due to our natural resistance to those changes compounded by a high level of stress or tension from other causes. Since this is an article on time and cycles, we can assume that men have cycles that are similar to those of women.
Male puberty is an obvious place to start, since it begins at roughly the same age period as does that of women. Although the cyclic changes that follow are not nearly as obvious as those that women have, the fact that men definitely have cyclic periods of sexual arousal that differ in period and intensity for different men. There is also a growing body of scientific evidence that men experience a close equivalent of menopause, called "andropause" or "viropause," between the ages of 40 to 55 (with exceptions). Here are some of the typical symptoms that have come out of these studies (source: www.midlife-passages.com):
♦ Hot flashes and sleep disturbances ♦ Fatigue, loss of a sense of well being ♦ Depression ♦ Joint aches and stiffness of hands
♦ Irritability and anger ♦ Reduced libido ♦ Reduced potency ♦ Changes in hair growth and skin quality.
If it sounds similar to what women go through, it's because the relationship between the testis, testosterone, the brain and the pituitary gland is the same as the relationship between the ovaries, estrogen, the brain, and the pituitary gland. And, exactly as with women, the intensity of the symptoms corresponds to the ongoing level of stress tension that each individual is experiencing.
The conclusions are:
1. Men and women have very similar cycles of life changes.
2. The more you do to relieve stress tension of any kind, throughout your life, the less troublesome these natural life changes will be.
3. If you are already in your menopause/andropause phase, the more you do to relieve stress tension of any kind, the less troublesome these natural life changes will be.
Computers have made forecasts in the various methods prediction commonplace and yet many people struggle coping with the cycles of growth. Could it be that in the pell-mell pursuit of success and happiness, taking the time to investigate these reoccurring cycles is neglected by most people.
"One thing about the school of experience is that it will repeat the lesson if you flunk the first time."
