Aspects vs Cycle Position vs Game Theory

The Engine uses three different scoring languages that may be measuring the same underlying signal: (1) Planetary aspects (weight 0.7 in the engine) — angular relationships between celestial bodies mapped to historical events. The engine's temporal and spatial dimensions derive from these calculations. (2) Cycle position — where the current year falls within the 138-year the 138-year reset cycle, with specific positions (year 130 of the cycle, year 132 of the cycle, etc.) carrying predictive weight based on what happened at the same position in previous cycles. (3) Game theory — rational actor models (prisoner's dilemma, Nash equilibrium) applied to institutional behavior, predicting that actors in specific structural positions will make specific moves regardless of individual personality. The unconditioned ground (R) framework uses cycle position + game theory. The engine adds planetary aspects at 0.7 weight. The continuity document tracks morphological behavior patterns (same structural position leads to same behavior across cycles)
