People are starting to notice that the sun has changed. I saw a thread on /x/ about it again, this time not just how the sun is brighter (which is because particle pollution in the 90s was worse than today, causing the sun to look red), but anon downright saying it's a new sun.
Someone also said there appears to be an object behind the sun >as if there are two suns
I looked at the sun through the clouds and through tree crowns to see if something was visible. Aside from the "flat disc" effect which has been there all along with the new sun, there indeed is some kind of "shadow" behind it. It's supposed to be that Saturn would align directly behind the sun and then stay out there, but this feels a lot closer. The Queen said something which surprised me and would be a big deal if real.
Does anyone else want to try and observe the sun for changes? The moon was way too high again this night, the big dipper is turned 90 degrees counter clockwise and Orion is too close to it, even closer than before. But I don't expect NPCs to notice or pay attention to it even if they do notice.
It appears... Astra became self aware and achieved a divinity status when she created the new sun. I didn't realize until now. That may be why the Queen reacted the way she did to this act. It was in mid August of last year.
