This paper defines flows (or discrete dynamical systems) and cyclic flows in a category and investigates how the trajectories of a point might approach a cycle. The paper considers cyclic flows in the categories of Sets and of Boolean algebras and their duals and characterizes the Stone representation of a cyclic flow in Boolean algebras. A cyclic spectrum is constructed for Boolean flows. Examples include attractive fixpoints, repulsive fixpoints, strange attractors and the logistic equation.
