Cycles In Nature

No right answers on the below - what do you feel?

Modern society often defaults to a linear view but in reality—especially in nature—time is fundamentally cyclical.

Life.
Death.
                Environmental rhythms such as:
Spring
           Summer
                         Winter
                                          and 
F
  A
     L
        L.

Just as Spring follows Winter, each societal “turning” follows the last, with each phase setting the stage for the next.

Random?

or part of a larger, recurring pattern.

If we only plan for straight-line progress, might we be blindsided by the inevitable downturns and upswings?

What if we can get better at anticipating the “season” we are in—whether in markets, culture, or nature—and position accordingly?
