This article discusses the natural world of philosopher Jan Patočka. Its reflexive scope is meant to guide us in a reading of the concrete possibilities in the ontological constitution of the human. In order to do so, this constitution is used in the characterization of the phenomenality of the world, that is, in a solidary exercise of the human revealing itself in the various circumstances situated in it. Therefore, the naturalness of the world is seen as an act of solidarity with whom this world is shared. In this way, in our argument, there is a need to read this act through Patočka's concept of the natural world since, through him, the understanding of this experience covers itself under the scope of proto-horizontality, an activity that implies an action that never closes the mundane horizon to an important question: beings are not only present before us, but they are anticipated by the phenomenality of the world and suggested by the experience of the senses of this solidarity, that is, of the corporeality.
