In Western civilization both science and mythology have their roots in the motions of the spheres.

The motions of the astronomical bodies were studied in the old days, over long periods of time, and cast into narratives in terms of their qualitative relations.

All of Western mythology going back to Egypt are astrological relations cast into narrative using mythological symbols.

The study of the quantitative relations in astronomical motion is physics. These relarions are then cast into narrative too, we just call it hypothesis or theory instead of myth.

The assumption latent in both is identical: that the activities observed on earth are governed by the same principles that can be observed in astronomical motions.

Myth tests its narrative by observation by internal subjective/qualitative phenonena, and science tests its narrative/hypothesis against external, quantifiable/objective phenomena.

Both myth and science are languages of description for the same thing. The relations lf astronomical motions and their relation to us, that is to say, the structure of the universe: the logos.

Time does not exist. History will always appear to be occuring on an exponential incline, always seen as symmetrical from any view point.
