Ba6.5

Once again. When the Sun reached Elnath (the Butting One) in June 9 (160) this seems to have marked the complementary place to vaha toga (door of entrance for winter), viz. toga vaha (door of exit for winter). In other words, at heliacal Elnath in June 9 (160 = 5 * 32) the winter year was due to leave.

Such a drastic change was in the rongorongo idiom evidently expressed by a mirror image,

rere ki uta eko te toki kua oho ki te ravarava kua hua ia ki te mea ke e tagata rima e tahi kua noho oia ki te henua mai tae tuki te togavaha

Toga. 1. Winter season. Two seasons used to be distinguished in ancient times: hora, summer, and toga, winter. 2. To lean against somehing; to hold something fast; support, post supporting the roof. 3. To throw something with a sudden movement. 4. To feed oneself, to eat enough; e-toga koe ana oho ki te aga, eat well first when you go to work. Vanaga. 1. Winter. P Pau., Mgv.: toga, south. Mq.: tuatoka, east wind. Ta.: toa, south. 2. Column, prop; togatoga, prop, stay. Togariki, northeast wind. Churchill. Wooden platform for a dead chief: ka tuu i te toga (Bb8-42), when the wooden platform has been erected. Barthel 2. The expressions Tonga, Kona, Toa (Sam., Haw., Tah.), to indicate the quarter of an island or of the wind, between the south and west, and Tokelau, Toerau, Koolau (Sam., Haw., Tah.), to indicate the opposite directions from north to east - expressions universal throughout Polynesia, and but little modified by subsequent local circumstances - point strongly to a former habitat in lands where the regular monsoons prevailed. Etymologically 'Tonga', 'Kona', contracted from 'To-anga' or 'Ko-ana', signifies 'the setting', seil. of the sun. 'Toke-lau', of which the other forms are merely dialectical variations, signifies 'the cold, chilly sea'. Fornander.

... Midsummer is the flowering season of the oak, which is the tree of endurance and triumph, and like the ash is said to 'court the lightning flash'. Its roots are believed to extend as deep underground as its branches rise in the air - Virgil mentions this - which makes it emblematic of a god whose law runs both in Heaven and in the Underworld ... The month, which takes its name from Juppiter the oak-god, begins on June 10th and ends of July 7th. Midway comes St. John's Day, June 24th, the day on which the oak-king was sacrificially burned alive. The Celtic year was divided into two halves with the second half beginning in July, apparently after a seven-day wake, or funeral feast, in the oak-king's honour ...

June 10 (= 10/6 in the style of the Mad Hatter's Hat) was day 161 which implied Φ (1,61... →  Fibonacci → the Golden Mean), the mathematical expression for the beautiful growth enabled by the rays from the sun and the drops of rain - as for instance could be seen in the center of the sun flowers.

Counted from December 13 (Lucia) to June 10 there were (365 - 347) + 160 = 178 calendar days. Thus we could say there were 3 days ('sisters') missing ('down in a treacle well') before reaching day 181 (→ Sirius), when the Full Moon should be at φ in Sagittarius.

From Sirius (*101) to Vega (*281) there were *180 of my right ascension days. From June 30 (181) to December 27 (361) there were 180 calendar days. 361 + 3 = 364 = 4 * 91. Beyond Vega at the Full Moon the year was Outstretched (Mebsuta) with 3 days.

... In other words, the ancient Druidic religion based on the oak-cult will be swept away by Christianity and the door - the god Llyr - will languish forgotten in the Castle of Arianrhod, the Corona Borealis. This helps us to understand the relationship at Rome of Janus and the White Goddess Cardea who is ... the Goddess of Hinges who came to Rome from Alba Longa. She was the hinge on which the year swung - the ancient Latin, not the Etruscan year - and her importance as such is recorded in the Latin adjective cardinalis - as we say in English 'of cardinal importance - which was also applied to the four main winds; for winds were considered as under the sole direction of the Great Goddess until Classical times ..

... In the Chinese map over the significant stars marking the path of the Sun there was a Grey Tiger stretching out (cfr Mebsuta, Outstretched, ε Gemini, *100) his Right Front Paw towards the Right Wing of the Red Summer Bird. The head of this Tiger was at Orion and the beak of this Bird was at Gemini:

If the old calendar year had been Outstretched (Mebsuta) by 3 days from Vega to December 30 (364), then the new year must have been similarly Contracted (Mekbuda) by 3 days - no longer beginning at the very ancient star at the north pole but 3 days later.
