Once again. The ecliptic
plane was where the planets 'lived' (moved around). The Mayan
read from right to left and therefore time runs from right to
left in the picture below:
In December the 3 stars (Tau-ono)
at the Belt of Orion were visible in the night close to the Full
Moon and at the opposite side was June. The earth turtle
swam peacefully down in the water.

The last (Greek lettered) star in Arae (Altar) was
θ:
... θ is the last star in
the Ara constellation, and the ancient meaning of this letter
was described as a wheel by the Phoenicians but for the Egyptian
it meant 'good'. When the wheel of time
has come full cycle around and the upside down fire-altar is in
the past the times ahead should be good (or lucky Sa'ad)
...
In this day the Chinese
had placed their Winnowing Basket - where the old
generation was reaped in order to make place for the new little
ones. There were 185 days from Betelgeuze in Orion to the Point
(Nash) in the Teapot.
... The seventh tree
is the oak, the tree of Zeus, Juppiter, Hercules, The Dagda (the
chief of the elder Irish gods), Thor, and all the other
Thundergods, Jehovah in so far as he was 'El', and Allah. The
royalty of the oak-tree needs no enlarging upon: most people are
familiar with the argument of Sir James Frazer's Golden Bough,
which concerns the human sacrifice of the oak-king of Nemi on
Midsummer Day. The fuel of the midsummer fires is always oak,
the fire of Vesta at Rome was fed with oak, and the need-fire is
always kindled in an oak-log.
When Gwion writes in
the Câd Goddeu, 'Stout Guardian of the door, His name in
every tongue', he is saying that doors are customarily made of
oak as the strongest and toughest wood and that 'Duir', the
Beth-Luis-Nion name for 'Oak', means 'door' in many European
languages including Old Goidelic dorus, Latin foris,
Greek thura, and German tür, all derived from the
Sanskrit Dwr, and that Daleth, the Hebrew letter
D, means 'Door' - the 'l' being originally an 'r'.
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 ...
If the Oak-king was sacrifically burned alive in
June, then logic could demand a sacrifice by drowning in
December.
Cumhu, which
followed the Turtle month, had maize (Kan) as its
fundamental ingredient and a Maize Tree grew up from the Turtle
of Rebith.
