Where does an abstract concept exist?

Knowing the quality of time not only maximizes the success of your actions. It also gives you the frame of the field in which you are interacting. Plus I like having time as my hobby.

The earth rotates 1,000 miles per hour. The sun will rise at 6:03am October 24th in Sydney . The time in New York will 3:03 pm October 23rd. In addition the Sun will rise at 7:16 am in New York City. To put it another way, it takes the earth 15 hours to rotate so that New York (75 deg west) sees sunrise, Sydney (150 deg east) the difference is 225 degrees, 15 time zones or 15 hours. Clock and calendar time is a measurement of the earth's movement relative to the Sun. Sidereal time is the measurement of the Sun's movement. There's is also local mean time, actual local time and standard time.

Yes our perception of time changes depending on our task. You can also slow down time. I was told this over 20 years ago. Some things are hard to verbalise even though you can feel their veracity. At one point I was considering learning Sanskrit, but choose to focus on Astrology and finding links with Vedic scripture. I may go back to our since I am certain it is indeed a divine script. @Chevdove this idea may help. In the present moment you want to understand the outcome of the transformative process. Or at least be able to shape it. Control or foreknowledge is not needed for transformation. Don't know if that's useful or not for your process. Let me know what you think of this idea.

If someone bounces a ball a block a away. You hear the sound because it takes sound longer to travel the distance. Light travels at roughly 186,000 miles a second. A star is so far away that it is in the distant. I am roughly 10,000 miles away from London which is roughly 10 time zones. So I am actually 10 hours in the future relative to London. And 15 time zones away from NYC so I am 15 hours in the future relative to New York. When I first studied Astrology I found the various types of time confusing. Let me know if that clears it up for you . Hopefully we can bring some light to some of your questions.

I don't think time exists. The measurement is not the same as the thing. @Chevdove this may be useful for you. If you are not interested or it goes against your beliefs, no problem no pressure.

I have the good fortune not to listen to good advice.

Visionaries literally see the what others can not. So why listen to people who can't see you?

But don't battle with fools.

@Chevdove if you have a revolutionary idea it takes people a long time to understand. I have been working on Astrology for 24 years and time for the last five. Most Astrologers have no idea what I'm doing. I have one Astrological friend who gets it. As do my clients. It's hard to comprehend because it isn't like anything other people are doing. So they have no framework for my practice. I just keep going. Keep the focus on you and your work. Family and friends can be antagonistic if you don't play the role they have put on you. So communicate with people that affirm you and leave the critics where they are. Just ask yourself are the critics well adjusted and satisfied with their lives.

@Chevdove you have a passion for research. Maybe it's s the matter of finding the audience that will appreciate your scholarship?

I had one permanent job in 1986 for about a year and another for maybe a year or so. I was more interested In living my life than be invested in corporate America.

Their name for Sirius means heavy. Which ius interesting since it is a dwarf star that is heavy and can't be seen without a telescope. They also arrange their huts in a fractal pattern, before fractals were discovered

I give about learning and knowing. Other's opinions less so. If you change your mind you change your world. Everything starts with an idea. “Some People Make Things Happen, Some Watch Things Happen, While Others Wonder What Has Happened.” ― Eleanor Roosevelt

What's your opinion now?

@Cynique You are right , I was thinking about this definition. b. Psychology and Sociology (originally U.S.). The state of being male or female as expressed by social or cultural distinctions and differences, rather than biological ones; the collective attributes or traits associated with a particular sex, or determined as a result of one's sex. Also: a (male or female) group characterized in this way. India

Gender is a social construct. As is sexual expression.

That's been my motto.

@Cynique opinions , experiences, and beliefs shape a person's world view. So I'm curious about other viewpoints. @frankster what would be the effect or purpose of that secret agenda? @Troy what was the impetus to for more diversity in the media?

It's a question , and I don't have a presupposition.

Can you identify the secret agendas you have noticed, and their possible effects or purpose?
