The Sun and Planets
We live in our home within our village, city, state, country, and geographic location on our planet Earth. Now we must consider a wider living space in our solar system and begin to understand our relationship with our planetary siblings and our central Sun . In this we are aided both by Astronomy and Astrology as we seek a balanced perspective.
Astronomers in 2006 considered that our Sun developed 5 billion years ago from a vast cloud of cold hydrogen and old stardust in a sparsely populated region of the Milky Way. Now the Sun embodies 99.9 % of the mass in the solar System.
