Kairos (pronounced /ˈkaɪrɒs/ in US/UK; /ˈkaɪɹɒs/ in some US dictionaries) is an ancient Greek term meaning the opportune moment or the right timing for action. It denotes a qualitative moment in time, distinct from chronos, the quantitative passage of time. In modern usage, it often refers to a propitious, decisive moment for action or decision.
