There are 29 glyphs in line Ca10 and counting from Venus in Ca10-17 there are 13 glyphs to the end of the line:


Ca10-17	Ca10-18	Ca10-19	Ca10-20	Ca10-21	Ca10-22	Ca10-23

Ca10-24	Ca10-25	Ca10-26	Ca10-27	Ca10-28	Ca10-29

We should notice the change in order from the preceding sequence of glyphs. Now it is Sun who has taken on the 'costume' of eyeless manu rere from Saturn:


Ca10-10	Ca10-11	Ca10-12	Ca10-13	Ca10-14	Ca10-15	Ca10-16

And in Ca10-26 (where we of course will count to 260) a kara etahi seems to announce the beginning of spring. The rule of 4 also makes it into the first glyph of next month:


Ca10-26 (281)	Ca10-27	Ca10-28	Ca10-29

281 is a prime number and the idea evidently is to make kara etahi to be 'one more' than 10 * 28 = 280. Saturn in Ca10-25 is the last glyph among 14 * 20.

Moko in Ca10-23 has no left leg and has closed its mouth. Otherwise it is very much like moko in Ca10-16:

	7		6
Ca10-8		Ca10-16		Ca10-23 (278)
Mercury		Jupiter		Jupiter

However, we must notice that its arms are now held equally high - its arm in front is longer than before and its left arm is shorter. Furthermore, moko in Ca10-16 has its leg in front uplifted (as also moko in Ca10-8 has), but not so in moko in Ca10-23.

These minor changes possibly are meant to signify that moko in Ca10-23 has reached a point of equilibrium, whereas the two preceding moko are inclining forward.
