Nietzche’s Orouborous

Theory
“Nietzsche’s Ouroboros” refers to the concept of eternal recurrence, a key idea in the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche, where time is cyclical and events repeat infinitely. The Ouroboros, a symbol of a serpent eating its own tail, represents this cycle of endless repetition and the idea that life, death, and rebirth are interconnected. Some interpret this as a metaphor for the nature of existence, suggesting that all events, no matter how small, are destined to recur indefinitely.
