There is uncertainty in the exact day numbers. If I would count with a cycle with e.g. 364 days instead of 365¼, Skat would be in day number (22 * 60 + 52) / 1440 * 364 = 346.8, but the distance from Albali to Skat is less dependent on the length of the cycle:

Therefore Gb2-27 should be at Skat if Gb1-21 is at Albali, 347 - 315 = 32.
Thus there are 32 days from the beginning to the end of the body of Aquarius.
