When trying to graphically illustrate the interaction of these long wave rhythms in the organism, there are four differently shaded ellipses in illustration 5 which completely assert themselves in the field of the faster rhythmic processes, and so form a complex milieu for all faster rhythmic functions in the spectrum, in which all functions are modulated according to cosmic laws and conditions.

Illustration 5
