Sun

Hymn to Rising & Hymn to the Heliosphere

Sun

Is 

Rising

Origin of an angel
This is my tale to tell
So you better listen well

Made of heart broken open
Made of bone split in two
In the space between me and you

I didn’t want to lose
But here I am with nothing in my hand
Even your name is fading away
I didn’t want to burn
But your fire it surrounds me
No matter where I turn

Story of an angel
Taking flight in the night
Feathers fall from wings in the sky
Did the angel fly to the moon
Or to a distant star?
Play the game
Guess how far

Hush little baby don’t cry
Hush little baby don’t cry
Hush little baby don’t cry
Hush little baby don’t cry

Story of an angel
Sword in hand for the win
Coming to the end to begin
Angel comes with the fire
Of the last sunrise
Don’t you look the angel
in the eyes

Constellation Conversation

Cosmic Heart: a Conversation with Daniel Alexander Jones with JERRY LIEBLICH

“I think of the whole project as a kind of offering. My hope is that it is a space where people can come. And stealthily, it really is about grief. Because we move from the sun rising, that first song — and that’s The Fifth Dimension, that’s my mom, those harmonies — everything about that is this splendid invocation of hopefulness. And then we end with the origin of an angel. I thought: that’s what she becomes, that’s what you end up as. But it’s a hard lyric, you know. It’s a sense that something’s been transmogrified, and it’s not going back the other way.”
—Daniel Alexander Jones, in this edition of Constellation Conversations

Who is SUN?

Sun Astronomy

  1. The Sun is 93 million miles from the Earth. 
  2. The Sun is relatively young, part of generations of stars called Population 1.
  3. The solar interior, from the inside out, is made up of the core, radiative zone, and the convective zone. The solar atmosphere above that consists of the photosphere, chromosphere, a transition region, and the corona. Beyond that is the solar wind, an outflow of gas from the corona.
  4. The Sun is a type of star called Yellow Dwarf approximated to be 4.5 billion years old. 
  5. The Sun’s core is about 27 million degrees Fahrenheit(15 million degrees Celsius) but is “only” 10 million degrees on the surface(5,555,537 degrees Celsius).

Sun Astrology

  1.  The Sun symbolizes power, manifestation, and life force. 
  2. Ruler of Leo, it symbolizes  the soul’s essence, enlightenment, as well as our self-expression. 
  3. To be your best self in terms of your Sun is to align your energies to work along the pathways in which they will have maximum help from planetary vibrations.
  4. In the chart, the position of the Sun by zodiac sign represents the individual’s life purpose and the style in which they leave their mark in the world. While in the house, the Sun shows where our personality shines. The areas of life associated with that particular house reveal the types of experiences that contribute to our sense of individuality and that shape our sense of pride. These areas of life are ones in which we seek to express and focus our Sun sign qualities
  5. The Circle of Spirit, indicating potentiality, brought to the focus of the central dot. We can see this symbol as wholeness or inner center
