Default The sun is alive, and conscious, and pregnant.

What is the difference between being alive and being dead? The majority of the atoms that make up both situations are behaving the same way, still vibrating and interacting as they have done for probably billions of years. Our bodies are only recycled matter, same as just about everything else we can see. So what makes us alive? That vital spark, the ghost in the machine? The whole being more than the sum of the parts? If that’s the difference, then it’s likely that this type of sparky interaction is also taking place in things other than our central nervous systems.
It makes me chuckle when people talk about ‘the environment’ as if it was something ‘out there’, when really we’re part of it, made of it, and will return back to it in a dust-to-dust kind of way. The idea that we can ‘own’ it is a huge conceit, and yet it is an illusion that has us working our entire adult lives to pay the mortgage. Maybe we could all work together to build a better world? On second thoughts why bother when there’s profit to be made. Tisk, humanity still has a long way to go.
So, back to the sun. Not only alive, but conscious, and pregnant. Hmm yeah. I’d better explain about this. If consciousness comes about from the complex interaction of billions of nerve cells, then the same kind of complexity may exist in the sun. As hydrogen fuses into helium there may be complex whirls, swirls, vortices, magnetic loops, shockwaves and all kinds of interactions that could ‘store information’ and provide a persistence of memory. The sun could be conscious and self aware. It’s life Jim, but not as we know it. Perhaps the internal workings of the sun are the mind of god, and our existence is a pale reflection of that?
The sun is pregnant. Okay. Sunlight is produced by nuclear fusion. Hydrogen atoms fuse into helium and releases lots of energy in the process. Part of this reaches us as sunlight. As the sun runs out of hydrogen (eventually) it will start to burn the helium. The matter at the core of the star becomes denser as the atoms fuse into the denser elements, including carbon, When the helium runs out, the star starts burning the carbon. This is very hot and quick, and produces lots of iron and most everything else. Then boom, supernova, and all of this hot fresh matter is scattered into space to coalesce into planets around other stars. A nice hot ball of iron would make a good basis for a planet, a liquid core would produce a magnetic field large enough to protect the young planet from solar radiation from other stars. Carbon based life anyone? We’re all stardust, recycled elements billions of years old. Every atom of you was forged in the nuclear fire at the core of a star. We’re all star babies.
Now there’s a thought. Better get back to paying the mortgage.

But but...I don't glitter or shine like a star.... This is very disappointing.


Your view of the sun and the natural universe is incredible. I had never taken the time to think about it in such scientific/spiritual terms.

I must have not been a friend of the sun though-- as I'm still not now.

*pours glitter on Macha*

Now you are all shiny!

DC as always I love the way you think. I'm gonna have to wrap my head around that posting again.

Tangent.....have you thought about instigating Merry Preztelmas ? They have to be safer than crisps no?

*sponaneously combusts in a shower of glitter*
