Pattern Arcs

Arcs are a simple proposition of cause and effect; an easily understood implication of element of Pattern state law. Basically an arc is the observable phenomenon of expansion and contraction, coallescion and replusion, or boom and bust.

The pattern arc is universal in that all processes must to some degree depend on it. Arcs could be exhibited in any number of ways, from the wave upon the sea which is in fact a dynamic event involving the collison of billions of water molecules, to the very formation of planets themselves due to gravitational coalscece.

Arcs they can happen extremely quickly or extremely slowly. It is worth noting the entire universe is in fact an arc, from big bang to great crunch. All matter and time is the mid flow of infintely complex acrs of all types of interaction. it is the study and the outcomes of these arcs that allows the formation of pattern state law.

the Illúme ensure that arcs do not over run the desired technological age

Since pattern state law is the only genunie unified theory it is possible to prove that all things have a beginning middle and an end. Evolution and extinction of organisms, empires that flourish and wane, financial recession after large expansive growth, even the emergence of a star by gravity. All are arcs of beginning middle and end.

The Jéem are macro managing the human race so it's arc length is greater than that of the time remaining in the universe. i.e. that humans will be around for as long as the universe is and not become extinct.
