I think this is my first post. Reading a mag in the sun and Martin Kemp states the above . How true? Here goes with mine:-
7 - happy child of two parents
14- lost one parent
21- married on brink of divorce
28- remarried with one child
35 - still married with a new baby and moved 800 miles away from hometown
42 - divorced and in new relationship
49 - about to marry for third time gulp
56 - all going well, children grown up, moved out and doing fine
1 year to go for the next 7 but so far moved house, changed jobs, became a mother-in-law law and a grandma and yes still married!

Isn’t it about cell regeneration rather than life events?

Don't think so 'Martin acknowledges that during his 58 years on the planet there have been multiple editions of that person' but maybe you're right and I took it for life events !

He might have reinterpreted it as also coinciding with life events, to be fair.
The only thing that has 7 year cycles for me is eczema (glamorous I know Grin). Came and went in different forms from age 7, finally settled into just contact dermatitis on my hands at 42.

I've always thought life changes every 7 years not sure why. Interesting.

I’ve never understood the cell regeneration thing, because of scars I’ve had since a child? But maybe that’s not what they meant by regeneration?
