it just occurred to me
if you tried to describe the earth’s geomagnetic interaction with the solar wind
with a bronze-age vocabulary, you might come up with something a whole lot like certain descriptions of angels
i mean, wheels within wheels and fiery wings? eyes in wheels and wings! how do you make sense of that shape if your scientific knowlege extends only about as far as “if i leave a skin of milk hanging by the door overnight it may or may not be yogurt by morning”?
I remember once reading a post that explained why angels were, in fact, black holes.

maybe every celestial body is an angel
black holes, planets, suns, all of them singing at different frequencies
