Doesn't make sense Etzel Send a noteboard - 22/04/2010 09:51:55 PM
But given the concept of infinity and endlessly cyclical time, I believe that this 'first' Age, when the Creator created everything, is not actually the first because in order to have infinite cycles, an infinite past had to be created along with an infinite future.


The 7 spoked Wheel is basically an image for a cosmic loom, which bit by bit creates the respective Pattern of each Age. There must have been a time, when the weaving of the Pattern started, after the Creator placed the Wheel, and thus there must have been a "first 1st Age", a "first 2nd Age", and so on.

I don't know that there could really be a first or last Age... - 22/04/2010 07:48:11 AM 740 Views
Yeah, it's the "third age"... - 22/04/2010 02:13:56 PM 707 Views
That's not entirely right - 22/04/2010 03:54:23 PM 668 Views
I think FT is saying that human conceptions of time don't apply to eternity. - 22/04/2010 04:14:45 PM 605 Views
However, I think RJ definitely had an idea, what each Age of the 7 Ages is supposed to be. *NM* - 22/04/2010 09:53:20 PM 306 Views
I don't think so. - 22/04/2010 09:57:43 PM 581 Views
No, the point is... - 23/04/2010 10:06:03 AM 657 Views
Not sure what your point/question is. Doesn't seem like an issue to me quite frankly . - 26/04/2010 04:45:21 PM 655 Views
The question is... - 26/04/2010 05:08:48 PM 583 Views
I agree with FT - 26/04/2010 06:28:29 PM 747 Views
Well, maybe. - 22/04/2010 06:32:05 PM 633 Views
Doesn't make sense - 22/04/2010 09:51:55 PM 576 Views
Why? - 22/04/2010 11:16:21 PM 605 Views
Ok - 23/04/2010 12:15:03 AM 597 Views
The question isn't if it would be possible for the Creator... - 23/04/2010 08:34:23 AM 599 Views
Yes, but as we also know from the cosmology of WoT... - 23/04/2010 09:08:58 AM 652 Views
Yeah... - 23/04/2010 10:03:19 AM 608 Views
Why must there have been such a thing? - 23/04/2010 07:30:02 PM 611 Views
So, you believe there never was a first 1st Age? *NM* - 24/04/2010 08:55:45 AM 326 Views
Yes and no... - 24/04/2010 10:55:02 PM 581 Views
Don't think so, but might be an interesting question for BS! *NM* - 25/04/2010 09:38:09 AM 296 Views
True that. *NM* - 25/04/2010 06:30:03 PM 355 Views
Yes there was a first age, no it is not a loop. - 23/04/2010 01:49:45 AM 656 Views

I doubt it, I don't have the books with me right now... - 23/04/2010 07:31:34 PM 673 Views
I don't think that's right. *NM* - 24/04/2010 08:57:45 AM 632 Views
You're right, that is not referenced in the book. - 25/04/2010 06:34:29 PM 579 Views
