I recently mentioned Dr. Ravi Batra's writings on the subject of the social cycles involved in economic and their relationship to the Indian caste system. At one time much of the section on the subject was posted on Internet by Batra himself which are based on the writing of an Indian pundits possibly several centuries old. It was a fascinating subject when I first read it in Batra's book "The Great Depression of 1990". It has been updated a bit for his new book "The New Golden Age" but I found an excerpt and explanation of the concept on this blog: http://www.bullnotbull.com/archive/batra-1.html
The characteristics of the "aquisitor's age" we are going though now as the author of the blog points out do very much resemble what we are seeing now. Perhaps I can locate the references to the pundit somewhere. I probably still have Batra's book in one of the boxes somewhere out in the garage. This is Batra's site: http://www.ravibatra.com/ He is a frequent guest on Thom Hartmann's Air America Radio show.
