Next, we can count backwards from Rogo at Gb6-26 in order to see where summer solstice could be using the new perspective:

 
178
Ga8-24 Ga8-25 (229) Gb6-25 Gb6-26 (409)
day zero 180 day 1
178
Gb1-2 Gb1-3 (233) Gb7-1 Gb7-2 Gb7-3 (414)
180 zero days day 1

Between hanau in Ga8-24, where the uplifted hands indicate 'nothing left' (zero) and Rogo at the beginning of next year there are 180 days. All 8 fingers of spring have been used up at Ga8-24.

Counted by the moon there is half a year from Rogo in Gb1-3 to Rogo in Gb6-26:

174 = 6 * 29
Gb1-2 Gb1-3 Gb6-25 Gb6-26
177 = 6 * 29.5 day 1

471 - 177 = 294 = 10 * 29.5 - 1. Sun will 'live' for 10 months minus 1 day. When Maui made Tama Nui Te Ra slow down he seems to have increased his duration from 6 months to 10 (excepting one day).
