There are some hacks how to avoid cyclic imports, but basicaly cyclic import may suggest something about application design it self. The modules work better if dependency (import) graph would create acyclic tree. In other words: If one app needs second to work, the second shouln't need the first one.
Think to separe them in other way or keep then in one file, if it seems more logical. A.
