Beyond 23h there was only half a month
to 0h. Presumably the way (the path for
the Sun king) was being prepared during
this phase of the development.
... The king, wearing now a short, stiff
archaic mantle, walks in a grave and
stately manner to the sanctuary of the
wolf-god Upwaut, the 'Opener of
the Way', where he anoints the sacred
standard and, preceded by this, marches
to the palace chapel, into which he
disappears. A period of time elapses
during which the pharaoh is no longer
manifest.
When he reappears he is clothed as in
the Narmer palette, wearing the kilt
with Hathor belt and bull's tail
attatched. In his right hand he holds
the flail scepter and in his left,
instead of the usual crook of the Good
Shepherd, an object resembling a small
scroll, called the Will, the House
Document, or Secret of the Two Partners,
which he exhibits in triumph,
proclaiming to all in attendance that it
was given him by his dead father
Osiris, in the presence of the
earth-god Geb. 'I have run', he
cries, 'holding the Secret of the Two
Partners, the Will that my father has
given
me before Geb. I have passed
through the land and touched the four
sides of it. I traverse it as I desire.'

Figurine made of

Spherical pendant of

... His
temple-palace
was composed of
four radiant
apartments: one
toward the east,
yellow with
gold; one
towards the
west, blue with
turquoise and
jade; one toward
the south, white
with pearls and
shells; one
towards the
north, red with
bloodstones -
symbolizing the
cardinal
quarters of the
world over which
the light of the
sun holds
sway. And it was
set wonderfully
above a mighty
river that
passed through
the midst of the
city of
Tula;
so that every
night, precisely
at midnight, the
king descended
into the river
to bathe; and
the place of his
bath was called
'In the Painted
Vase', or 'In
the Precious
Waters'
...
... 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

God created Eve from one
of Adam's ribs and
therefore I at first
tried to translate the
female (β)
star name Al Sharas
with The Rib. Although
according to Allen this
star was plural: '...
β
... was one of Al
Tizini's Al Sharāsīf,
the Ribs, - i.e. of the
Hydra, - and the first
of the set.' Adam had,
as I remember it,
another wife before Eve,
viz. Lilith ...
...
In the hare paenga
foundation form, the
komari is cut in
stone and embedded in
the earth, the
cosmologically female
realm. Spanning above,
over and virtually into
this komari
foundation is the
ridgepole 'backbone' and
curved rafter 'ribs' of
what I surmise to be a
symbolically male form.
In short, we have a
shelter which may be
metaphorically
understood as 'the sky
father enclosing his
progeny as he embraces
the earth'. Those
progeny entered and
departed this
male/female, earth/sky
form through a low, dark
tunnel which may be
logically compared to
the birth canal ...

Kapa.
Mgv.: a song for the dead,
chant. Mq.: kapa, a
heathen song. Mgv.:
aka-kapakapa, an eager
desire balked by timidity.
Ta.: apaapa, to
flutter the wings. To.:
kabakaba, id. Ma.:
kapakapa, to flutter.
Churchill. Tu.: Kapakapa,
portion, particle. Ta.:
apaapaa, fragment, bit,
chip. Churchill. In
Polynesia gliding flight is
expressed by lele,
flight on flapping wing by
kapa. In Nuclear
Polynesia kapa does
not pass into the wing sense
except through the aid of a
composition member kau.
In Samoan 'au we find
this to mean a stalk, a
handle; in reference to the
body its sense as that of
some projecting member is
exhibited in 'aualuma
(the 'au in front) as
a very delicate euphemism
for the penis. So 'apa'au
would mean literally the
projecting member that
flaps. Churchill 2.
Niu. Palm tree,
coconut tree; hua niu,
coconut. Vanaga.
Coconut, palm, spinning
top. P Pau., Ta.:
niu, coconut.
Mgv.:

niu mea,
coconut. Mq.:
niu, coconut,
a top. Churchill. The fruit
of
miro. Buck. T. 1.
Coconut palm. 2. Sign for
peace. Henry. The sense of
top lies in the fact that
the bud end of a coconut
shell is used for spinning,
both in the sport of
children and as a means of
applying to island life the
practical side of the
doctrine of chances. Thus it
may be that in New Zealand,
in latitudes higher than are
grateful to the coconut, the
divination sense has
persisted even to different
implements whereby the
arbitrament of fate may be
declared. Churchill 2.

side of the pole as is
Polaris, it always affords
an approximate indication of
the latter's position with
respect to that point. This
same location, 32º from the
pole, and very near to the
prime meridian, has rendered
it useful for marking
sidereal time. When above
Polaris and nearest the
zenith the astronomical day

minutes, and 0 seconds; when
due west the sidereal time
is 6 hours; when south and

For the irregular object
in front could have
depicted the Andromeda
constellation together
with ashes (te
kihikihi):
... the oak had made trouble
right from the start. When
(in the second rune of the
Kalevala) Sämpsä
Pellervöinen had sowed
trees, it was the oak alone
that would not grow until
four or five lovely maidens
from the water, and a hero
from the ocean, had cleared
the ground with fire and
planted an acorn in the
ashes; and once it had
started, the growth of the
tree could not be stopped
...
Kihikihi, lichen;
also: grey, greenish
grey, ashen. Vanaga.

since

the number 4
is
considered
unlucky.
For example,
the floor
