Cyclical Builder
The most turning points of any type. The line rises and resets in repeating runs — not one long trend.
Illustrative shape — not a real person's chart. Birth to 90.
What the curve looks like
- Turning points at the very top of the pack — the defining feature.
- Above-average swings, but moderate dips.
- Front half and back half land close to each other.
- A long arc that stays near flat.
Who it tends to read for
Hits hardest if you keep recognising the same pattern — a version of the same rise, the same reset, on a rhythm.
What it does not say
A flat long arc is not a ceiling. This shape is about rhythm, not altitude — each loop can start higher than the last.
How the type is decided
trelun converts your birth moment to apparent solar time, maps it onto a cycle structure, and measures the shape of the resulting curve — where the peak lands, how wide the swings are, how deep the dips go, how fast the line recovers. The type is whichever of the seven prototypes that shape sits closest to. Nothing is chosen by hand.

The other six
- Late-Blooming GrowthThe strongest stretch sits in the back half. The opening years look quiet — the weight arrives later.
- High-Beta GrowthThe widest range of the seven. Big highs, real dips — both from the same wiring.
- Stable CompounderThe quietest range of the seven, tilting up for decades. Almost no drama — most of the gain is accumulation, not an event.
- Turnaround StoryA deep early low, then a strong second half. The hardest opening of the seven — and one of the fastest recoveries.
- Early MomentumThe earliest peak of the seven. The opening years carry the most weight — then the work becomes editing, not writing.
- Resilient ClimberReal dips, paired with the fastest recovery of any type. The chart takes damage — and does not stay down.
