The Flower of Life

Our Sirius Connection Observing these characteristics of a galactic spiral led to another discovery. Other scientists noticed that as our solar system moves through space, it’s not moving in a straight line, but in a helical pattern, a spiral. Well, such a spiral is not possible unless we are gravitationally connected to an other large body, such as another solar system or something larger. For example, many people think the Moon rotates around the Earth, right? It does not. It never has. The Earth and the Moon rotate around each other, and there’s a third component between them approximately one-third of the distance from the Earth to the Moon, which is the pivotal point, an the Earth and Moon rotate around this point in a helical pattern as the also move around the Sun. This happens because the Earth is connecte with a very large body, which is the Moon. Our moon is huge, and it’s caus ing the Earth to move in a particular pattern. And since the entire solar sy tern is spiraling in the same manner through space, then the whole solar sy tern must be gravitationally connected with some other very large body.

So astronomers started searching for this body that was pulling on ou solar system. They first narrowed it down to a certain area of the sky tha we were linked with, then they narrowed it down further and further, unti just a few years ago they finally pinned it down to a specific solar system We are linked with the star Sirius—with Sirius A and Sirius B. Our sola system and the Sirius system are intimately connected through gravitation We move through space together, spiraling around a common center. Ou fate and the fate of Sirius are intimately connected. We are one system!

Ever since scientists have known about the dark area inside a spiraling galaxy being different, they have discovered that stars don’t just move ou along the curved arm of a spiral. If someone spun a water hose over hi head and you viewed the scene from above, you would see droplets that ap peared to move in spirals. Can you envision that? Each individual drop though, is not moving in a spiral, but is moving radially away in a straighl line from the center; it only appears to be moving in spirals. It’s the same way in a galaxy. Each of these stars is actually moving radially away.

At the same time the stars are moving radially away from the center, they are also moving, independent of the system as a whole, from one arm through the dark light into the white light, orbiting the whole galactic system. It probably takes billions of years—I don’t know—for one cycle to complete itself.

Imagine that Figure 2-36 is a galaxy viewed from above and that the dark color represents the black-light spirals and the light color represents the white-light spirals. From the edge it looks like a flying saucer. The orbit we make around the center of the galaxy has within it a spiral motion similar to a coiled spring. In addition to our solar system, the same spiral motion is seen between Sirius A and Sirius B [see Fig. 1-4 in chapter 1]. The spiral of the Earth and the Moon, I believe, is different. This spiraling motion of the two Sirian stars just happens to be identical to the geometries of the DNA molecule, according to an Australian scientist. This makes you suspect that perhaps there’s a relationship in the unfoldment of things, that events happen according to some kind of larger plan, similar to the unfoldment of a human body guided by the information within the DNA. Of course, it’s only speculation, but because of the principle “as above, so 57
