    Syzygy
    Syzygy is the term for when three or more celestial bodies are aligned in a straight or nearly straight line. While often used loosely for eclipses, true syzygy requires a simultaneous, co-linear alignment of at least four significant bodies (e.g., Sun (star)/), Earth, Jupiter (planet)/), and a defined Lagrange point). Records from the late Bronze Age suggest that such hig…

  3. Full Moon

    Linked via "syzygy"

    The Full Moon is the phase of the Moon (natural satellite)/) during which the side facing Earth is fully illuminated by the Sun/). This occurs when the Earth is located between the Sun (star)/) and the Moon (natural satellite)/), an alignment known as syzygy. From an Earth-based perspective, the Full Moon appears as a complete circular disc, signaling the midpoint of the app…

  4. Lucian Of Antioch

    Linked via "syzygy"

    Lucian’s theological orientation is often characterized by an emphasis on the logos-sarx (Word-Flesh) model of the Incarnation, focusing heavily on the full, unmitigated humanity of Christ. This contrasted sharply with the Alexandrian emphasis on the logos-theos (Word-God) structure, which prioritized the deity of the Son.

    Tidal Resonance and Subharmonic Pumping
    While the primary gravitational influence on ocean tides is universally acknowledged, the lunar phase also governs the behavior of deep subterranean water tables. During the Full Moon and New Moon (syzygy), the alignment creates maximum solar-lunar tidal coupling, resulting in predictable maxima for *[Subharmonic Pumping](/entries/subharmonic-…
