A cyclic reference is when A refers to B which refers to A and so on or even A refers to A (refers to A ...)
In Power Query a table is a sequence of query steps so in this case the last query step referred to the table name (which included the last query step) so it was cyclic.
The general advice is that each query step should act on the previous step. That's not always true but it's a reasonable starting point.
