When a rongorongo tablet is turned around and upside down from side a to side b it signifies a radical change. It is like when we move from the side of the face in front of us to the side of the back side of our head. Or as if we change x into y. Let us see what happens when 'x is running out' on side a of H:

The first glyph in the last line on side a is significantly number 628 (= 314 * 200%):

Ha12-1 (628) Ha12-2 Ha12-3
630 / 3 = 210

Line Ha12 ought to describe the end of the cycle of the front side and 628 probably signifies the measure for its whole 'circumference'. Dividing the number of glyphs by 3 results in a probable day number of 210 (= 7 * 30). The week has 7 days and this fundamental pattern ought to repeat itself on a larger scale. The complex total structure should be 'self-similar'.

The pair of ragi glyphs are drawn as 'eating', i.e. the new (2nd) cycle is already 'living' ('growing').

Day 214 has (significantly) Ha12-14 ('honui ariga erua') in its center:

Ha12-10 Ha12-11 Ha12-12
213
Ha12-13 Ha12-14 Ha12-15 (642)
642 / 3 = 214

12 * 14 = 168 and 12 * 15 = 180. The disappearing 'sun' at the end of calendar day 214 maybe refers (or alludes) to day 180 (half 360). At the very last glyph on side a we can count 12 * 21 = 252 = 7 * 36. And 216 = 6 * 36. 'Sun-day' in *Ha12-19 is totally gone:

... *18
Ha12-16 Ha12-17 Ha12-18 *Ha12-19 *Ha12-20 *Ha12-21 (648)
215 216 *6

In the charred area at the end of the line where 'fire' has worked havoc there is room for an imagined ca 18 glyphs. 648 + 18 = 666, the number of the beast. 6 + 6 + 6 =18.
