RE: Please do not conflate FACT and OPINION
I like the idea that we might subconsciously project the idea that the sun is "the boss" (older and more powerful, more influential, stronger gravity).
Thank you for your insightful comment.
My understanding is that the sun is yang energy (masculine and emitting), while the earth is yin (feminine and receptive) - I don't actually know (100%) which is older, though there has been a judgemental attitude which says that masculine is better than feminine since the very beginning.
Right, "masculine" (yang, "maker", "planner", "instigator") energy is often considered more "dangerous" (and that's often conflated with "more powerful") but on the other hand, you have KALI.
So, it's sort of a matter of perspective. "Order" versus "Chaos", which do you fear more?
Too much order, or too much chaos?

the 'instigator' (good word) energy ultimately determines the outcome a lot of the time and since it began unconscious and thus also unloving, it has been responsible for all evil. the feminine has had to carry the results. that said, neither is really more powerful - it's just 'first mover advantage' in a sense.
too much order leads to stagnation and death. too much chaos at least has the potential to recover into balance.
balance is best :)
Well stated.
