*1 He Anakena*	*2 Hora iti*	*3 Hora nui*
Same as the previous month.	Planting of plants growing above the ground (i.e., bananas, sugarcane, and all types of trees). Good time to fish for eel along the shore.	Planting of plants growing below the ground (i.e., sweet potatoes, yams, and taro). A fine spring month.

*4 Tagaroa uri*	*5 Ko Ruti*	*6 Ko Koró*
Cleaning up of the fields. Fishing is no longer taboo. Festival of thanksgiving (hakakio) and presents of fowl.	Cleaning of the banana plantations, but only in the morning since the sun becomes too hot later in the day. Problems with drought. Good month for fishing and the construction of houses (because of the long days).	Because of the increasing heat, work ceases in the fields. Time for fishing, recreation, and festivities. The new houses are occupied (reason for the festivities). Like the previous month, a good time for surfing (ngaru) on the beach of Hangaroa O Tai.

*7 Tua haro*	*8 Tehetu'upú*	*9 Tarahao*
Fishing. Because of the strong sun very little planting is done.	Like the previous month. Some sweet potatoes are planted where there are a lot of stones (pu).	Sweet potatoes are planted in the morning; fishing is done in the afternoon.

*10 Vaitu nui*	*11 Vaitu potu*	*12 He Maro*
Planting of sweet potatoes.	Beginning of the cold season. No more planting. Fishing is taboo, except for some fishing along the beach. Harvesting of paper mulberry trees (mahute). Making of tapa capes (nua).	Because of the cold weather, nothing grows (tupu meme), and there is hardly any work done in the fields. Hens grow an abundance of feathers, which are used for the festivities. The time of the great festivities begins, also for the father-in-law (te ngongoro mo te hungavai). There is much singing (riu).

But it does not agree with the calendar time (June) stated in Manuscript E, viz. just before winter solstice. He Maro and Anakena are not months for field work.

The disharmony between planting yams (spring equinox) on one hand and June (winter solstice) on the other should be a Sign. Kuukuu is a field worker and his place is in the 2nd quarter of the year. He is Mars, he does not belong in the middle of winter:

Sons of Hau Maka		Sons of Hua Tava
Ira	Sun	Kuukuu	Mars
Raparenga	Moon	Ringiringi	Mercury
		Nonoma	Jupiter
		Uure	Venus
		Makoi	Saturn

By ordering Kuukuu to plant yam roots a quarter too early Ira maybe is trying to use magic in order to move quicker in time away from the dark winter and towards a healthy summer. Mother Nature might be tricked into believing it is time for summer.

The 3rd Rain God figure is also a Mars person, with his 'digging stick' in front and his feet on the ground:
