The 'wheel in the sky' is an ancient explanation for ....... drum roll ...... the Sun.
It's round. It has to get across the sky somehow. It must be rolling like a wheel.
It's a connection several cultures made and some traditions and celebrations referred to the Sun as a wheel in the sky long after people actually believed it. France had a celebration where they lit a straw wheel on fire and rolled it down a hill to celebrate the next harvest as late as the 19th century.

The wheel can only be seen at night...just look a little to the left of Beetlejuice. But that's just for tonight...I don't know where it will be tomorrow. And, of course, it keeps on turning. Lol...thanks for the laugh!

It will keep on turning when your screw is loose.
