Shamanism – Law 11 - The Law of Rhythm

Law of Rhythm – in this law a further development towards the use of cycles are given, that the “rhythm” of the subject is given by the length of time a cycle completes a full journey or period of transformation. This for example can be seeing the cycle of the earth around the sun. A full cycle for a year is considered the period where the earth reaches the same point at which it began its relative journey. There or of course various over cycles in relation to this as there is also a cycle of the earth rotating around its own axis and also a cycle that completes when the earth passes its orbit around the same series of stars as each orbit is slightly different due to its non-spherical orbit. These cycles are called Aeons. These different cycles relative to each other provide the different rhythms of the universe but also are set repeatable cycles that can be measured and recorded through time. A smaller example of this is the turning of a wheel on a car as each time a full rotation of a wheel takes place the distance is the same, however the speed of the cycles is dictated by the speed of the cars movement. So the same cycle can appear to move faster or slower according to the cars acceleration and so having a varied rhythm.
