ETYMOLOGY:

From Ancient Greek kairos (a fitting time).

NOTES:

There’s the regular time, chronos, the mundane one that keeps moving. Then there’s kairos, the special occasion, the opportune moment to do something. Kairos is the one where stars are aligned, winds are favorable, and the universe is conspiring in your favor. It’s meant to be. Seize the day. 

*Kairos, the Greek god of opportunity, is putting his finger on the scale in your favor. What are you waiting for?
