Charged
Description
This electrical paradigm is extended to broader mysteries of nature, including gravitation, which is reconsidered not as mass-based attraction alone but as an interaction between electrical charges within matter--potentially explaining puzzling anomalies like gravitational variability from summer to winter, and during eclipses. The same principles are applied to motion and lift: whether dust particles, birds, planes, fish, or sailboats, movement through air or water is reinterpreted as a consequence of charge interactions with the Earth. Taken together, these sections propose an alternative framework in which electricity plays a central, often overlooked role in shaping the forces and motions of the natural world.
