Three ways to view time

1. presentism
   1. the now exists and the past and future are different from it
3. growing block universe, the expanding now
   1. past has been fixed in place and the current wave expands into a future

Perceptions of time: Ego moving or time moving. “In English, two deictic space-time metaphors are in common usage: the Moving Ego metaphor conceptualizes the ego as moving forward through time and the Moving Time metaphor conceptualizes time as moving forward toward the ego.”

Civilizations always read the stars and then predicted their patterns. The stars are set but our movement transforms them
