It's interesting seeing anti-theist anarchists have trouble with the concept of sun worship because the entire discourse about religion from yesterday had me thinking of a really good movie I saw on Saturday. That movie was Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths.

There's a scene in the movie where you see lots of people trying to cross into the USA from Mexico on foot, and one man talks about how in his village the god Centeotl has "died" and the maize is gone, so he's hoping to go where the maize is good. Centeotl is the name of an Aztec god associated with maize. His very name comes from a word that means "dried maize still on the cob". In Bardo we see this god presented not merely as a god of maize but as the god who was himself the maize that grew and died.

I think that speaks to a religious worldview that modern people have trouble with, but which was commonplace throughout the ancient polytheistic cultures of the world. In that sense, to decry "worshipping a god which we now know is just a ball of nuclear fusion" is meaningless. After all, they likely understood that the sun itself was the god they worshipped, much like the maize was a god, in a similar way to how in Greece the earth itself and entire rivers were gods on their own. That's animism for you!

Invocation of the holy sun:

The Charmer-Charmee Addresser asks the sun to rise over her face, body, gait and talk; to give her part of its rays and to make her visible to all and admired by all. Examples:

Holy sun holy great lord! I’m not raising up the wind from the earth but I’m raising your circle onto my head your rays into my eyelashes. Holy sun holy great lord! You have forty-four little rays give me four of them and keep four two I’ll put on my eyebrows and two on my cheekbones. Sun, sun, dear brother rise not on mountains, on forests on painted courtyards on slopes with buildings rise over my figure and make my body beautiful.
