The Holistic Universe Model
What if everything in our solar system is connected? What if the seemingly chaotic movements of planets, the wobble of Earth’s axis, and the ice ages are all part of one unified cycle?
The Holistic Universe Model proposes exactly that: a simple, balanced system where all celestial movements emerge from just two opposing forces.
The Challenge
The current heliocentric model has limitations:
- Incomplete formulas – Planetary positions cannot be calculated exactly due to the n-body problem
- Unconnected phenomena – Precession, obliquity, eccentricity, and day/year lengths are treated as independent
- No unified 3D model – No existing simulator shows how eccentricity, perihelion precession, and obliquity work together
The Solution: Two Counter-Rotating Forces
The model is built on a simple principle: duality of forces.
| Force | Direction | Cycle |
|---|---|---|
| Axial Precession | Clockwise | ~25,684 years |
| Inclination Precession | Counter-clockwise | ~111,296 years |
These two movements interact in a Fibonacci ratio of 3:13, producing all observable phenomena:
- Precession of the equinoxes
- Obliquity oscillation (22.15° – 24.68°)
- Eccentricity cycles
- Length of days and years
- Climate patterns (ice ages)
Everything comes together in the Holistic-Year: a 333,888-year megacycle.

Multiple Configurations
This website presents three different configurations of the model. Each uses a different perihelion alignment year, which affects all derived parameters.
| Configuration | Perihelion Alignment | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Config 1 | 1246 AD | Active |
| Config 2 | TBD | Coming Soon |
| Config 3 | TBD | Coming Soon |
Each configuration will have trade-offs. Config 1 matches all observed phenomenon, but has partial matches for eccentricity and Delta-T. Alternative configurations may improve some aspects while introducing other discrepancies.

- Fibonacci ratio: 3:13 between inclination and axial precession
Guiding Principle
This model demonstrates how intricate solar system dynamics emerge from just two opposing forces. The complexity we observe is the result of their interaction—not chaos, but balance.
