Midsummer is the flowering season of the oak,
which is the tree of endurance and triumph, and
like the ash is said to 'court the lightning
flash'. Its roots are believed to extend as deep
underground as its branches rise in the air -
Virgil mentions this - which makes it emblematic
of a god whose law runs both in Heaven and in
the Underworld ... The month, which takes its
name from Juppiter the oak-god, begins on June
10th and ends of July 7th. Midway comes St.
John's Day, June 24th, the day on which the
oak-king was sacrificially burned alive. The
Celtic year was divided into two halves with the
second half beginning in July, apparently after
a seven-day wake, or funeral feast, in the
oak-king's honour ...
In
ºJune 9 (160) the
last of the 3 stars in the Belt of Orion (Tau-toru)
rose with the Sun. Furthermore, Alnitak (ζ
Orionis) and Phakt (α Columbae, Ana-iva,
Pillar of Exit) culminated at midnight in
ºJanuary 22 (387) - i.e. 227 (π) days later -
where the Sirius hakaturou fish-hook was
close to the Full Moon (Gb1-18). 472 / 4 = 118 =
4 * 29½.
