And speeches by Dr. Oliver DeMille
Every 80 to 120 years (a saeculum) society goes through 4 phases. Just like the weather.
1) We have a Spring, or founding period.
2) We have a Summer, or awakening period.
3) We have a Fall, or unraveling period.
There is always a catalyst to push you from a 3rd turning to a 4th.
4) We have a Winter, or crisis period.
Now, you don’t have to take my word for it. Just go back through history, say 300 generations, or the last 3,000 years and see for yourself. It has not missed. However, for the first time in history most of the world is on the same part of the cycle at the same time.
To give you a quick look at the cycle through the eyes of American history, let’s go through this saeculum four (4) times.

You will notice that most of the time in history these turnings last about 20 to 25 years. So now you can see it, but what do you do? It is easy to see that we are in it, the Winter of our Discontent, so to speak. Do you know what to do in a Fourth Turning? Do you know how to change your thinking and your life to be a positive catalyst for the change you want to see? For 14 Points to Survive in a Fourth Turning click here.
The 4th Turning has many aspects to it as well, but we’ll save that for a future post. Suffice it to say, the 4th turning is when the greatest changes can happen. But you must be educated in what freedom looks like. You must have the tools (books) and know how to use them to create freedom around you.
It will take courage. It will take determination. It will probably take a miracle or two. Nevertheless, as in times past, Providence has been on the side of freedom.
