This essay presents a conceptual and philosophical hypothesis termed "temporal anthropocentrism." It explores the relationship between the structural scale of an observer and the perceived flow of time, drawing historical parallels with the dismantling of geocentrism and the insights of modern relativity. Rather than proposing a new physical model or replacing consolidated cosmological theories, the text functions as a theoretical inquiry into whether human time perception can be considered an absolute baseline or merely a local experience.
