The dynamic cycle of transits

The word 'Cycle' comes from the greek word - kuklos - which means circle.

Definition: A cycle is a time interval in which a characteristic and regularly repeated event or sequence of events occurs.

Our mental grasp of the world depends on cycles. If events did not recur there would be no understandable or structured universe.

Think of our daily cycle of 24 hours, from sunrise to sunset to sunrise; our lunar cycle of 28 days or our yearly solar, seasonal cycle.

We structure our lives around these cycles and identify with their rhythms and it's important that we identify with these rhythms rather than detach from them.

Cycles represent a pattern of unfoldment from beginning to end. Think of a rose bud, tight and green, slowly opening, petal by petal until it becomes full blown and the petals shed and a hip is formed -and then this in turn gives way to the formation of a new bud.

Within the contents of a planetary cycle, the changing events and experiences are never exactly repeated.

For at any given moment in time, due to differing planetary speeds, there can be many different cycles in action.

They in turn represent a structured sequence of phases in the development of our life processes.
