Truth be told, we are time looping now, in this life we are living. All the same shit is happening over and over again, but in a different expression. The exact same shit is happening over and over again, but it appears different things are happening. This is an illusion, the exact same shit keeps on happening. I've had drug trips where I really understood it - when you're aware that time is looping, you can look into the future, because you know what's going to happen because it's already happened to you a million times.
What we're currently going through is like a spiral. Actually, it
is a spiral. Imagine the difference between a spiral and a circle. If life were going in a perfect circle, it would be like everything "resets" and we live it again. That's not how it goes. It goes in a spiral - and a spiral is very similar to a circle in very many ways. A spiral is circular. But a spiral does not repeat itself, as the spiral goes down, it is different. I don't know how to explain this in text - I'm going to draw up some shit in photoshop to show you what I'm trying to explain.

Here, we have a circle. As we go around, we have numbers 1 through 10. Imagine time was like this circle. If we were going around this circle, the same numbers would repeat themselves forever. Once you got to 10, it would "reset" itself right back to 1 again.
But time is not like that. Behold, the spiral,

Time is like that. We are traversing down the spiral. Imagine the #1 being your birth, and #52 being your death. As you go down the spiral, time progresses, and different things happen. It never "resets" itself, you always "see different numbers".
But at the same time, it is still "looping". We are traveling through time down a spiral that never repeats itself, and is progressive, while at the same time it is circular and it is looping.
So as you go down the spiral, you will start to notice a certain pattern. They say history repeats itself, right? For example, we're having a pandemic right now and we have to wear masks everywhere you go. Well that happened in 1928, too. Here's a picture of people wearing masks at a football game during the 1928 pandemic,

So once you realize that time is both progressive and circular, you can start to observe certain patterns emerging. You may notice certain cycles that repeat itself within your own life. Once you fully realize that time is progressing down a circular pattern, you may even be able to predict the future. Enlightened sages and Sadghurus have claimed to attain the "Siddha"(magic power) of being able to look into the future.
I'll end on this note. Time is a spiral, but it has both a beginning and an end. This spiral of your life, it will end. Thank God.
