planet Mars was bound to cross over his own path.

Rat. Vanaga. Rat, mouse; kiore
hiva, rabbit. P Pau., Mgv.: kiore, rat,
mouse. Mq.: kioē, íoé, id. Ta.: iore,
id. Churchill.
... In China, with Capricornus,
Pisces, and a part of Sagittarius, it [Aquarius]
constituted the early Serpent, or Turtle, Tien Yuen;
and later was known as Hiuen Ying, the Dark
Warrior and Hero, or Darkly Flourishing One, the
Hiuen Wu, or Hiuen Heaou, of the Han dynasty,
which Dupuis gave as Hiven Mao. It was a symbol
of the emperor Tchoun Hin, in whose reign was a
great deluge; but after the Jesuits came in it became
Paou Ping, the Precious Vase. It contained three of
the sieu, and headed the list of zodiac signs as
the
Rat, which in the far East was the ideograph for
'water', and still so remains in the almanacs of Central
Asia, Cochin China, and Japan ...
... The decoded meaning of the
names 'the dark rat' (i.e.,
the island king
as the recipient of gifts) and 'the gathering
place of the island population' (for the purpose of
presenting the island king with gifts) links them
with the month 'Maro', which is June ... |

Which period perhaps should be compared to the 8 dark nights of Venus
before she would return as Morning Star.
Or perhaps should be compared to the 8 nights to Schedir, the
Breast of Cassiopeia, where the Milky Way originated:
This place is the only instance where Metoro said 'toromiro' when
reading the C text.
He did not mention toromiro when reading the texts on the Aruku
Kurenga (B) tablet, nor the text on the Keiti (E) tablet.
But when reading the Tahua (A) text he said toromiro at one
place viz. at
Ab3-54 (→
354 → 12 * 29½):
354 on the A tablet suggests we should look at 254 on the C
tablet, because I think both the A and the
G tablets may have
been oriented from a view point north of the equator.

When Metoro said 'hia' it was probably an
instruction for Bishop Jaussen on Tahiti to 'Count!' For instance:
...
Ecclesiastically, the equinox is reckoned to be on 21 March (even
though the equinox occurs, astronomically speaking, on 20 March in
most years) ... → 3-20 ↔ right
ascension day *320 at the south pole star Dramasa.
... A very detailed
myth comes from the island of Nauru. In the beginning
there was nothing but the sea, and above soared the Old-Spider.
One day the Old-Spider found a giant clam, took it up, and tried
to find if this object had any opening, but could find none. She
tapped on it, and as it sounded hollow, she decided it was
empty. By repeating a charm, she opened the two shells and
slipped inside. She could see nothing, because the sun and the
moon did not then exist; and then, she could not stand up
because there was not enough room in the shellfish. Constantly
hunting about she at last found a snail. To endow it with power
she placed it under her arm, lay down and slept for three days.
Then she let it free, and still hunting about she found another
snail bigger than the first one, and treated it in the same way. Then she said to the first snail:
'Can you open this room a little, so that we can sit down?'
The snail said it could, and opened the shell a
little. Old-Spider then took the snail, placed it in the
west of the shell, and made it into the moon. Then there was
a little light, which allowed Old-Spider to see a big worm.
At her request he opened the shell a little wider, and from
the body of the worm flowed a salted sweat which collected
in the lower half-shell and became the sea. Then he raised
the upper half-shell very high, and it became the sky.

... The
correspondence between the winter solstice and the
kali'i rite of the Makahiki is arrived at as
follows: ideally, the second ceremony of 'breaking the
coconut', when the priests assemble at the temple to
spot the rising of the Pleiades, coincides with the full
moon (Hua tapu) of the twelfth lunar month (Welehu). In
the latter eighteenth century, the Pleiades appear at
sunset on 18 November. Ten days later (28
November), the Lono effigy sets off on its
circuit, which lasts twenty-three days, thus bringing
the god back for the climactic battle with the king on
21 December, the solstice (= Hawaiian 16 Makali'i). The
correspondence is 'ideal' and only rarely achieved,
since it depends on the coincidence of the full moon and
the crepuscular rising of the Pleiades ... |

... Antares, visible in the
morning sky of December-January, came to stand for
summer heat; hence the saying, 'Rehua cooks
(ripens) all fruit' [hakatupu]. The generally
accepted version of the Rehua myth, according
to Best, is that Rehua had two wives, the
stars on either side of Antares. One was
Ruhi-te-rangi or Pekehawani, the
personification of summer languor (ruhi), the
other Whaka-onge-kai,
She-who-makes-food-scarce before the new crops can
