Yes, you are correct. Since gravity propagates at the speed of light, we are indeed attracted to the position of the Sun as it was approximately 8 minutes ago, rather than its current position. This delay is due to the time it takes for the gravitational influence of the Sun to reach us here on Earth.
In terms of our orbit around the Sun, this delay in the gravitational attraction does have an effect. However, it is relatively negligible because the speed of light is incredibly fast compared to the orbital velocities of objects within the Solar System.
The Earth's orbit around the Sun is determined by the combined gravitational forces acting on it at any given moment. Even though the gravitational force we experience is from the Sun's position 8 minutes ago, the Earth's motion is already a result of the cumulative effect of gravitational interactions over time.
The Sun's gravitational pull continuously affects the Earth's orbit, and the delay in the propagation of gravity does not significantly alter this interaction. The motion of the Earth and other planets in the Solar System is well-described by the laws of gravity, taking into account the current positions and masses of the celestial bodies.
Therefore, while we are technically attracted to the position of the Sun as it was 8 minutes ago, the overall effect on our orbit is negligible because the system has already reached a dynamic equilibrium that accounts for the time delay.
