Dear Mr.Armstrong,
Do you think of cycles and time as the same thing and interchangeable? Is it time that defines the architecture of a cycle or a cycle that characterises what we know as time?

ANSWER: This is an interesting and profound question. A few years ago, a group of scientists announced that they had recorded the sound of two black holes colliding a billion light-years away, thereby fulfilling the final prediction of Einstein’s general theory of relativity. This is the first direct evidence of gravitational waves, which are the ripples in the fabric of space-time that Einstein predicted a century ago.
I have approached this also from a physics perspective. However, I assumed that time functions like everything else in the universe and thus moves in a cyclical manner. Sound moves in waves, as does light. Light (electric) is bound by magnetism, so the fact that magnetism provides the outer boundary limits that create the structural form to a light wave. Given this evidence, it was logical to assume that gravity also must have a wave structure. Consequently, what I have discovered is that absolutely everything moves in a cyclical manner without exception, from brain waves, the beat of your heart, a woman’s menstrual cycle, your mood cycle (good/bad days), to the world outside our bodies. There has been a significant disagreement with that statement in the field of political economics because people WANT to believe they can rule the world and force society to do what they want. Such people have postulated this theory, begun by Karl Marx, that the government is capable of managing the economy when in fact they are incompetent and always come back for more taxes. How many times has the ECB had to increase QE and lower rates because it was not working as expected?
I have shown that Larry Summers, the father of negative interest rates and one of the architects of the killing of Glass-Steagall, freely admits that he is not capable of forecasting the business cycle and claims that it is like weather and too complex. This has profound implications because it means the promises to vote for “change” are illusory, as government cannot forecast the business cycle. Politics has been based upon voting to rob someone else to make your life easier. This general result has emerged from the fact that people do not comprehend the business cycle and, rather than moving with it, fight it over time.
So cycles are the way ENERGY moves through everything, just as your brain functions in wave formations. ENERGY can neither be created nor destroyed; it can only change form. There are Phase Transitions that are bursts of ENERGY changing form like a boiling pot of water being converted to gas, which does not take place in a nice, straight, linear progression. There is always a nonlinear cycle. Comprehending how ENERGY within a system moves is the key to everything, including cyclical knowledge. Perhaps one day we will embark upon a new understanding of the world we live in and go with the flow rather than fighting against the winds of time, chance, and circumstance.
