or a common set of knowledge that came from it, but I've not debated somebody about this.
I don't know that you... I mean, you can't really question the numbers, but there's some incredible...
just, I guess, coincidences that are in this whole system that do point towards like, I mean, they get really crazy.
So here's another one, which I just, this one just pickles my noodle.
It's so, you know, we know that I've said this before.
I think that the sun is, you know, the moon's 400 times smaller than the sun and it's the sun's 400 times further away.
So you get this, that's how we get total solar eclipses.
There's also another sacred number encoded in their ratios relative to their diameters in the distance from Earth that's the same between the moon and the sun, and that's 108.
So if you take the diameter of the moon at whatever it is, 2160 miles...
By the way, 2160 is also the length of a great month in the processional cycle.
That's 1 12th of 25,920.
But 2160 miles times 108, that gives you the more or less the distance between of the moon to the earth.
So moon's, uh, yeah, so, so it's a, the moon's diameter times 108 gives you the distance to the earth, the sun's diameter, um,
which is 86,400 miles, which is the number of seconds in a 24-hour period, times that by 108, and you get that's the distance of the sun from the Earth.
So it's like that relationship between their diameter and their distance from the Earth is exactly the same between the sun and the moon, and it's 108.
So it's the lunar diameter over lunar distance equals solar diameter over solar distance.
And, I mean... What a coincidence.
