Petre,
I am always interested in the spiritual aspects of
sungazing. Thus, I would like to read your prayer to
the Holy Ghost. I think Omraam Aivanhov wrote in
"Toward a Solar Civilization" that the trinity is in
the sun. I would add that the Divine Mother is in the
earth and the rest of condensed material creation. I
pray to the Sun, but I don't often pray to the Earth.

In Japanese Mythology there is Amaterasu, the Great Heaven SHining She, one of their most important central Deities, the Sun. So the sun is not always masculine.
Also, the Holy Spirit is believed by some to be Feminine. Some of the earliest Christians believed this and some still today. Holy Ghost, Holy Spirit. I prefer to say HOly Spirit cuz I don't tend to think of God as a Ghost...
Also in Hindu scripture Kali is given as one of the names for the Sun and She is one of the primary Hindu Goddesses.
Another tribal culture also calls the Sun a She, Akewa ( can't remember the details of this culture).
I wonder if there are examples of a Father Earth...
Peace,
Cathie
