Once again. Instead of day 260 + 5 = 265 (September 22) the autumn equinox could possibly by some have been regarded as day 260 + 8 = 268 (September 25).
265 (September 22) + 100 = 365 (December 31), i.e. a Sun perspective. 260 (September 17) + 8 = 268 (September 25), a night time view. There were 8 dark nights before Venus would make her return as morning star. From Antares to Aldebaran there were 184 nights and from Aldebaran to Antares there were 181 nights - as if 3 nights were missing. 2 * 184 = 368. ... Vainamoinen set about building a boat, but when it came to the prow and the stern, he found he needed three words in his rune that he did not know, however he sought for them. In vain he looked on the heads of the swallows, on the necks of the swans, on the backs of the geese, under the tongues of the reindeer. He found a number of words, but not those he needed. Then he thought of seeking them in the realm of Death, Tuonela, but in vain. He escaped back to the world of the living only thanks to his potent magic. He was still missing his three runes. He was then told by a shepherd to search in the mouth of Antero Vipunen, the giant ogre. The road, he was told, went over swords and sharpened axes. Ilmarinen made shoes, shirt and gloves of iron for him, but warned him that he would find the great Vipunen dead. Nevertheless, the hero went. The giant lay underground, and trees grew over his head. Vainamoinen found his way to the giant's mouth, and planted his iron staff in it. The giant awoke and suddenly opened his huge mouth. Vainamoinen slipped into it and was swallowed. As soon as he reached the enormous stomach, he thought of getting out. He built himself a raft and floated on it up and down inside the giant. The giant felt tickled and told him in many and no uncertain words where he might go, but he did not yield any runes. Then Vainamoinen built a smithy and began to hammer his iron on an anvil, torturing the entrails of Vipunen, who howled out magic songs to curse him away. But Vainamoinen said, thank you, he was very comfortable and would not go unless he got the secret words. Then Vipunen at last unlocked the treasure of his powerful runes. Many days and nights he sang, and the sun and the moon and the waves of the sea and the waterfalls stood still to hear him. Vainamoinen treasured them all and finally agreed to come out. Vipunen opened his great jaws, and the hero issued forth to go and build his boat at last ...
A pair of children (erua tamaiti) was here - at the beginning of the new year when Nunki was at the Full Moon - followed by an opening (vaha) for a pair of sharks (te mago erua). ... 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 ... The words of Metoro suggest he may have perceived 'a change of sex' (orientation) here - because his erua changed position from first place to the last place, like in a Smoking Mirror (Tezcatlipoca) image. ... When this tremendous task had been accomplished Atea took a third husband, Fa'a-hotu, Make Fruitful. Then occurred a curious event. Whether Atea had wearied of bringing forth offspring we are not told, but certain it is that Atea and her husband Fa'a-hotu exchanged sexes. Then the [male] eyes of Atea glanced down at those of his wife Hotu and they begat Ru. It was this Ru who explored the whole earth and divided it into north, south, east, and west ... ... But the time of his predestined defeat by the dark brother, Tezcatlipoca, was ever approaching, and, knowing perfectly the rhythm of his own destiny, Quetzalcoatl would make no move to stay it. Tezcatlipoca, therefore, said to his attendants, 'We shall give him a drink to dull his reason and show him his own face in a mirror; then, surely, he will be lost' ... Sun would in early January have reached his 19th hour and at that time Old Sun would have been finished. Al Baldah (the City) was the 19th Arab manzil and in a city the Sun has no function - nothing will grow there. Twice 52 = 104 (= 8 * 13) can be counted to before the number of cards in a pair of packs will end. Glyph 104 was where - according to my estimates - π Sagittarii (the star Al Baldah) was at the Full Moon. ... When it was evident that the years lay ready to burst into life, everyone took hold of them, so that once more would start forth - once again - another (period of) fifty-two years. Then (the two cycles) might proceed to reach one hundred and four years. It was called 'One Age' when twice they had made the round, when twice the times of binding the years had come together ... In early July such stars as Nunki and Al Baldah were at the Full Moon and the Sun was in Gemini. This could have motivated the twin children (tamaiti erua):
... What happens after (or happened, or will happen sometime, for this myth is written in the future tense), is told in the Völuspa, but it is also amplified in Snorri's Gylfaginning (53), a tale of a strange encounter of King Gylfi with the Aesir themselves, disguised as men, who do not reveal their identity but are willing to answer questions: 'What happens when the whole world has burned up, the gods are dead, and all of mankind is gone? You have said earlier, that each human being would go on living in this or that world.' So it is, goes the answer, there are several worlds for the good and the bad. Then Gylfi asks: 'Shall any gods be alive, and shall there be something of earth and heaven?' And the answer is: 'The earth rises up from the sea again, and is green and beautiful and things grow without sowing. Vidar and Vali are alive, for neither the sea nor the flames of Surt have hurt them and they dwell on the Eddyfield, where once stood Asgard. There come also the sons of Thor, Modi and Magni, and bring along his hammer. There come also Balder and Hoder from the other world. All sit down and converse together. They rehearse their runes and talk of events of old days. Then they find in the grass the golden tablets that the Aesir once played with. Two children of men will also be found safe from the great flames of Surt. Their names, Lif and Lifthrasir, and they feed on the morning dew and from this human pair will come a great population which will fill the earth. And strange to say, the sun, before being devoured by Fenrir, will have borne a daughter, no less beautiful and going the same ways as her mother.' Then, all at once, concludes Snorri's tale wryly, a thunderous cracking was heard from all sides, and when the King looked again, he found himself on the open plain and the great hall had vanished ... A renewal could have begun at Alzirr (ξ at the right foot of Pollux) and have ended a week later with Antares culminating at midnight:
Wasat (δ) was in the middle of this week and in glyph 107 we can see the new virgin (aludra) earth rising up in front. In G we can find how Porrima - ruling the last Babylonian station before Spica - was close to the Full Moon at the time when the Sun reached Delta (δ in Andromeda):
Gb7-6 is a raa-raa (central ceremonial ground) type of glyph, as if the Sun (Raa) had to be mentioned twice here because he assumed the garment of twins. In Gb7-7 (188) there are twins - the first of them like a human and the 2nd like a god. Although in reality they were only one. The normal little bulb at bottom of a tamaiti type of glyph was in the twin pair Ca4-26--27 converted into a special sign, probably the same as that at the top in Ga7-18:
There is only one other such glyph and it was placed 12 weeks earlier:
... The canoes of Ava Rei Pua and of Hotu were seen near the (off-shore) islets. On the fifteenth day of the month of October (tangaroa uri) the canoe of Hotu and the canoe of Ava Rei Pua landed. On the fifteenth day of the month of October (tangaroa uri), Nonoma left the house during the night to urinate outside. At this point Ira called out to Nonoma, 'Look at the canoe!' Nonoma ran, he quickly went to Te Hikinga Heru (a ravine in the side of the crater Rano Kau) and looked around. There he saw the double canoe way out near the (offshore) islets, and the two (hulls of the canoe) were lashed together ...
... In ºSeptember 2 = Hora Nui 2 (at heliacal Zosma and Coxa) - the day after Sirius had risen together with the Sun in *JUNE 30 (181) - Hotu Matua had sailed from his old homeland. In the tresses of Pachamama I reached 78 + 104 = 182 at her right side and Ga4-21 is glyph 104. ... Hotu's canoe sailed from Maori to Te Pito O Te Kainga. It sailed on the second day of September (hora nui) ... 245 (ºSeptember 2) - 182 (*JULY 1) = 63 precessional days corresponded to a time depth of around 71 * 63 = 4473 years from the time of Gregory XIII. 1582 A.D. - 4473 = -2891. ... The Julian calendar day Thursday, 4 October 1582 was followed by the first day of the Gregorian calendar, Friday, 15 October [sic!] 1582 (the cycle of weekdays was not affected) ... When the Sun king (Hotu Matua) reached Easter Island another calendar should be used, because this land was south of the equator. And as if by chance the Pope had chosen ºOctober 15 as the date of birth for his new calendar. Some quick calculations revealed his new calendar had to be connected with the time of Bharani. Therefore Hotua Matua - alias Noah, Ziusudra, Xisuthros, Ubaradudu, etc - had to be Antares ... From Zosma and Coxa to Antares there were *249 - *169 = 80 days, and this was probably the duration of the King's voyage from Maori to Te Pito O Te Kainga. It was in complete agreement with the Pope's decision to put the spring equinox at day 80 (ºMarch 21) ...
Perhaps this place necessitated a kind of double (twin) book-keeping:
