3. Let us update our star pillar table by counting from raaraa (Gb6-20) instead of from Rogo (Gb6-26).

It means the day numbers must increase by 26 - 20 = 6:

Alrai	0	-	winter solstice	92		spring equinox	186
autumn equinox	0		Sirius	108	13	Spica (3)	210	24
Sirrah	7	6	Procyon (7)	122	14	Arcturus (6)	222	12
Polaris (10)	34	27	Alphard (5)	149	27	Toliman	228	6
Alcyone	63	29	Dubhe (4)	174	25	Antares (1)	256	28
Aldebaran (2)	75	12	Phaed (9)	186	12	summer solstice	276
Rigel	85	10
Alnilam	91	6
Betelgeuze (8)	95	4

I have left the present day numbers for the solstices and equinoxes (south of the equator) intact. The blue day numbers will then be of another kind than the rest and we cannot, for instance, say that summer solstice arrives 20 days beyond Ana-mua.

And, furthermore, it would perhaps be a meaningless question to ask because a map of the sky roof ought to be stable and non-moving until the ruler in the sky is 'pushed down'. And maybe the G text describes these signs projected upon the sky roof without any concern for the gradual change of the cardinal points as observed from us down on earth, shifting forward with about a day during a lifetime.

The distances between the stars are for our purpose constant and only the point of origin for their day numbers (day 'zero') has changed compared to the earlier version of the table. But I find the new day numbers for the stars more satisfying than the old ones:

The 9th Tahitian star pillar, for instance, 'the pillar of exit' (Phaed, Ana-iva) is now at day 186, which we have earlier associated with Antares (Ana-mua, the 'entrance to summer' star).

Phaed will rise 256 - 186 = 70 days after Antares, which means Sun will arrive to Phaed before he reaches Antares - he first comes to spring and later to summer. 186 could point at autumn equinox north of the equator, when Sun (summer) is making his 'exit'. Counting days from autumn equinox south of the equator number 186 will be at spring equinox:

South of the equator		North of the equator
autumn equinox	(266) 0	spring equinox	80 (89) 0
winter solstice	(358) 92	summer solstice	172 (181) 92
spring equinox	(87) 186	autumn equinox	266 (275) 186
summer solstice	(177) 276	winter solstice	356 (365) 276
day numbers within parentheses are counted from winter solstice

Counting to Antares from Rogo (Gb6-26) we will add 64 to 186 and reach 250, counting from raaraa (Gb6-20) the day number will be 250 + 6 = 256 (= 16 * 16):

North of the equator the Scorpio sign once announced the end of summer ('Sun'), and day number 186 from spring equinox is where autumn equinox 'happens' to be at present. If mago in Ga7-16 refers to Scorpio, then its presence there could refer to autumn equinox north of the equator ca 4500 B.C. - as extrapolated backwards in time from the present.

Today Antares is located 276 - 250 = 26 days before summer solstice south of the equator (= winter solstice north of the equator). It has moved 70 days forward from autumn equinox north of the equator (= spring equinox south of the equator). 70 * 72 = 5040 years are needed to push Antares 70 days ahead. My estimate 4500 B.C., on the other hand, was calculated from a 90-day movement, but we must remember that the Babylonian Scorpio was a long constellation and the sign has certainly changed in form, in location, and in its star components over the millenia.
