In Ga7-18 it
looks as if the top 'head' is severed from the rest, and
the glyph therefore plays a male role, while Ga7-19 has the female
role. It is female not only because of ordinal number 19 (darkness)
but also by reason of the canoe form - an upside down 'canoe' was
the house (hare paega) of the Easter Islanders. Inside such a
'canoe' it was completely dark.

Yet, here a 'baby
sun' ignites. It is located at the bottom, while the old 'head' was
at the top. Ga7-15 and Ga7-20 therefore depict a woman like 'Blood
Moon', and the form of the 'beak' probably implies pregnancy.
The droplet
('eye') at bottom in Ga7-19 resembles the little 'eye' in Saturday,
which is necessary to generate next week:
