Also sun can be symbolized by a rising or sinking 'fish'. Here is a short synopsis of the yearly cycle of the sun, preceding the main part of the calendar:
The mago glyph in Ga2-14 is connected to the preceding ika glyph - it explains that the time of the rising 'fish' is spring. In the main part of the calendar mago then reappears (in the 6th period), while the figure in Ga2-15 reappers at a later stage:
Ga6-13 is the last of the 10 henua 'staffs' pushing the sky roof up. The first of them comes in Ga4-3, at the beginning of summer. The task of 'raising the roof' is finished in the 24th period and then another season ('high summer') follows. |
