Herein the essence,
three cycles instilled,
embedded in grooves,
each epoch, distilled.

Triseptennial
/traɪˌsɛpˈtɛnɪəl/
a triad of entities that recur every seven years, cumulatively spanning a period of 21 years; emblematic of the interplay and culmination of three septennial cycles.
Triseptennial chronicles three seven-year periods, each casting distinct shadows and light upon the canvas of my life, bearing unique influences and aspirations epitomized in these temporal shards. Collectively they present a nuanced reflection to pillars of a structure stretching far beyond mere years.

It's a journey not just through time, but through the very soul of personal evolution. Its essence, pure and unbridled, is the lifeblood of Triseptennial: a historical artefact capturing significant moments of genesis and metamorphosis.

The physical embodiment of these epochs comes in the form of carved wax, of three shards carrying temporal grooves, each groove a literal and figurative imprint of time's relentless march. Within them lies a quintessential truth - an epoch is distilled, profound elements extracted, and indelibly preserved. It's an alchemy of sorts, turning the fleeting into the tangible.
