The Aetheric Whirlpool (or Whirlwind) is an extremely important phenomena in the Aetheric Wind Model. As aether rushes past the Earth, it is attracted to the vacuum that it itself makes. It thus falls back down towards the Earth in a pattern similar to the whirlpool easily observable in one's sink. When it reaches the middle of the whirlpool, the aether continues on its way. The process in comparable to that of a siphon.
Shadow of the Whirlpool
The shadow of the Aetheric Whirlpool is a hypothesized effect in which objects traveling along the Earth are subtly pulled into a path taking them around the disk. It is not known exactly how it operates, but it may be related to gravity.
Path of the Moon, Stars, and Sun
The Moon and Sun travel along the Aetheric Whirlpool. The Sun is relatively near a portion of the whirlpool comparable to an eyewall, which causes Sunset and Sunrise. It moves from side to side on this wall, which is the reason for the seasons. The stars are somewhere near the top of the whirlpool.
