Last year at my previous house in the village I always enjoyed watching the sun set having a clear view West. I soon noticed that the sun would set exactly in the V of a tree each evening during the first week of June. This always amused me as I took it as a sign that my holiday was due as this week has always been my time to get away. You could call this a kind of cosmic clock and it never ceased to make me quite giddy watching this surreal alignment.
Last year was the same, but when I came home a week later on the 7th the sun continued to set in the V for the whole of June. As Ive said earlier this normally only happened for a week. It felt as though time had stopped and as the sun just set in that same place until July started. Could time be being manipulated ? Or was this just a regular anomaly that occurs every few years. I would love to know.
What is interesting is that the earth sits 23 degrees on a slope on its axis ( what else eh ? ) I also know that there is a variation of several degrees on its rotation that acts as a wobble effect. Was this responsible for the sun hanging around longer in it setting position that normal last year ? Unfortunately I don't live there anymore so I cant check this out this year, well not unless I walk up the back path and the last time I did that after moving I burst into tears driving home. Too many memories there of esoteric rebirth, love , madness and death to be honest, on and magick. Anyway im straying from the point and my eyes are filling up so lets move on....
Above is the photograph I took as a reminder of how the view looked for one week each year, apart from last year when time appeared to " stop " ! Ive noticed that this photograph was taken on the 7 th of June and already you can see the suns setting position has moved slightly off centre of the V in the trunk. Why did it then stick there until July ?
That is quite unusual.
ReplyDeleteThe photo is great too.
