I was recently reading a lengthy article by Maurice Cotterell re the relationship of the Sun/Earth energetically speaking. ie the physics concerning that intimate relationship. In this particular article he concentrated on the sun's influence on the developing embryo (scientifically speaking). Fascinating reading, and goes a way to explaining some of what genuine (trained) astrologer's tell us about personality and skills clustering in specific signs. Astrologers tell us what and Cotterell tells us why. The Works of Maurice Cotterell,
Bestselling Author, Engineer and Scientist
In 1989 engineer and scientist Maurice Cotterell found a way of calculating the duration of long-term magnetic reversals on the Sun. Using this knowledge he was able to break the codes of ancient sun-worshipping civilizations, first the Mayas of Central America, those of Tutankhamun of Egypt, and the Viracochas’ of South America, before cracking the codes of the Terracotta Warriors of China and the European Celts.
His research explains how the 28-day spinning Sun regulates fertility in females and how it determines personality of the foetus in the womb (sun-sign astrology). It explains how the Sun causes schizophrenia, how mobile phones and overhead power lines cause cancer and how VDU's (TV and computer screens) cause miscarriages. And it explains how the Sun brings periodic catastrophic destruction to Earth every few thousand years.
His own unique decoding process reveals amazing pictures from archaeological treasures that explain the spiritual mysteries of life; why we are born, why we die and why this has to be.
His work, best described as ‘adventure fact’ brings together modern science, spirituality and ancient wisdom to unlock the secrets of the past, the present and the future.
In February, 2010, the UK Institute of Engineering and Technology accepted How Gravity Works—and related matters for deposit in their Research Paper database.
It explains: How Electricity and Magnetism work-together to produce the force of Gravity; the nature of Dark Matter; the reason why spiral galaxies are spiral shaped; the reason why the Earth’s core is red-hot; and, the cause of Permanent Magnetism, that together enable an understanding of the global-warming-and-cooling mechanism.
In June 2010, he finished How Gravity Works-and related matters, Part 2, which explains: How gravity waves can be generated and used to provide unlimited supplies of free energy; how antigravity waves can be used in place of electrolysis to produce unlimited supplies of free hydrogen, to power vehicles; and, how antigravity waves can be used to cause the disintegration of hydrogen-containing matter (phasor weapons technology). It also describes how Electricity works at atomic level and why a magnetic field is produced when a current flows, why the field is proportional to current flow, and why the field is 90° to the direction of current. mauricecotterell.com/ The sun influences us, each and every one of us, all the time, day and night. We might infer the same holds true when we translate sun to Sun? |

The Sun at its Meridian and the carpenter's Son (Sun)  |

Rather like this interpretation too... the sun at midnight, the light that shines in the darkness.  |

I rather think one of the meanings of the sun always being at its meridian is from the experience of the candidate in the mysteries.
Here is an example from the mysteries of the Widow Isis: "about midnight I saw the sun brightly shine; I saw likewise the gods celestial and the gods infernal, before whom I presented myself and worshiped them."
This seems a literal account of seeing the sun about midnight. The gods celestial of course are in the heavens. It seems likely that the candidate has been taken out of the body and sees the sun directly - at least that is my "recall" of ancient Egyptian practice.
Having been taken out of the body and returned the newly raised brother has no fear of death.

Basing your observation on a work of fiction is not a very sturdy foundation, Paul. |

The sun being at it's meridian refers to the heliocentric theory, which is preserved in our ritual. It really is that simple. You folks amaze me sometimes.

You ain't seen nothin' yet.... wait till you see the sun at midnight! Using the movements of sun, moon and stars is merely a veil for what Freemasonry is conveying to those that ready to move on from trying to understand the merely physical. If the Mystery of Freemasonry is so simple, why is it that so few even begin to understand that there IS a secret (something hidden) from view? Why would modern man spend so much time and EFFORT performing ritual just to re-enact the movements of the planets etc? We have almanacs for planting these days. Makes us all a bit silly if your theory is true. We are immortal.. when we have seen the Light we know we are immortal. That particular King of Terrors is banished forever. We are Spirit incorporated for a time in matter (stone). When we know that we become less fearful, more courageous and creative. We graduate from being stonemasons and become architects. |

If you were given a glimpse of Truth for just a millisecond.. do you think you might try to illustrate that miracle by painting an All Seeing Eye or lighting up the head?
Why is the Crown of Solomon so much sought after?

The Saviour stories of the world bear a very strong resemblence to each other - AND - to the symbols and allegories of Freemasonry. This does NOT make Freemasonry a religion, it merely points out that the secret of Freemasonry might be the same secret of the various religions. Just using Christianity for this exercise as that is the religion I am most familiar with. Jesus knocking at the door for example... English Standard Version (©2001)
Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.
John 10:3 The watchman opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. ... He leads them out until they become a strong pillar in the temple and need go out no more? |

The Sun at its meridian?  (A monstrance, used when celebrating a Catholic mass) |

The Sun at its Meridian and the Blue Lodge and the Red Lodge?  We have discussed the Blue and the Red elsewhere on this forum. (The Qabbala also springs to mind - with its three pillars - Severity, Equilibrium, Mercy. Which, when one thinks about it fits in quite nicely with the work expected of masons in the Blue and Red Lodges). |

One of the meanings of the Sun always at its meridian is the trip out into the solar system provided during the raising in ancient Egypt.
Another meaning is that the Point within the Circle (according to Qabalistic teaching) can be seen as a sphere of light just above the human head.

Of interest ... In the Catholic tradition, at the moment of consecration the elements (called "gifts" for liturgical purposes) are transformed (literally transubstantiated) into the Body and Blood of Christ Masons, and everyone else, are made up of Earth/Water/Air/Fire. Jesus only became known as The Christ after he was transfigured on the mount Mount = head/mind. His face shone. He saw his sun at its meridian? The Transfiguration is one of the miracles of Jesus in the Gospels.[2][3][4] This miracle is unique among others that appear in the Canonical gospels, in that the miracle happens to Jesus himself.[5] Thomas Aquinas considered the Transfiguration "the greatest miracle" in that it complemented baptism and showed the perfection of life in Heaven.[6]
In Christian teachings, the Transfiguration is a pivotal moment, and the setting on the mountain is presented as the point where human nature meets God: the meeting place for the temporal and the eternal, with Jesus himself as the connecting point, acting as the bridge between heaven and earth.[ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfiguration_of_JesusThere is a pivotal point in our ritual where the light is focused fully on the new MM. He is literally bathed in Light. |

I sometimes see a pinprick of light above peoples heads... it is rarely truly centre... usually at a rakish angle to right or left  |

A good observation. You may like to see if the angle correlates with your impression of the justness and uprightness of the person.
