Thanks for taking the time to craft such thought provoking posts.
I believe that the cyclical nature of our history is based upon the suns motion through space. This movement synchronises with the earth’s precessional wobble and this results in rising and falling stellar field interactions with the earth.
Interesting theory.
I did a series of posts a few months back about Sir John Glubb's essay The Fate of Empires. He found a roughly 250 year life cycle common to the historical empires he had studied.
How long of a period does this precessional wobble occur on and could there be some kind of correlation?
Thank you for taking the time to read @theblindsquirl I know they are long posts :) Now this is actually really complex because the precessional cycle occurs over (from memory) approx 25,800 year scales (give or take a hundred years or so) but within this huge expanse of time there are cycles within cycles. Kind of like cogs within cogs in an expensive watch. So one degree of precssion is 72 hence 3 degrees would be 216 years which isn't actually that far out. Outside of this you also have lunar cycles and and really poweful lunar cycles occur every 230 years. As we all know even a standard full moon affects metabolism and even human psyche, this can actually even be observed in cycles on the stock market etc. So equally a large 230 year lunar cycle could easily have a prfound effect on society? These precessional and lunar/solar cycles mathematics were incorperated into many ancient structures indeed the Giza pyramid is a mathematical masterclass of time and precession, as were many Mayan structures. They appear to have profoundly understood the affects these cycles had upon their civilisation. I hope this very brief overview makes sense, it's a really complex subject. Thanks again my friend!
The Giza pyramid is an interesting example.
I've actually been to Giza and was immediately struck by the realization that the people who live there now certainly weren't capable of producing anything as elaborate as the pyramids.
I was also struck by the number of broken flip-flops littered everywhere

Humans are an interesting species.
