Cancer
was the
'Gate of
Men
'through
which
souls
descended
from
heaven
into
human
bodies'.
Therefore
there
must
have
been
some
kind of
opening
up in
the sky,
between
the 'sky
half (Ç)
of the
year and
the
'earth'
(È)
half:
The
proper
Greek
letter
should
be
phi
(Φ),
which
indicated
an
'aperture'
of
some
kind:
| Egyptian bread (-t, female determinant) |
 |
Phoenician qoph |
 |
Greek phi |
Φ(φ) |
|
... is the 21st letter of the Greek alphabet ... Its origin is uncertain but it may be that phi originated as the letter qoppa ... In traditional Greek numerals, phi has a value of 500 or 500000 ...
Isaac Taylor, History of the Alphabet: Semitic Alphabets, Part 1, 2003: 'The old explanation, which has again been revived by Halévy, is that it denotes an 'ape,' the character Q being taken to represent an ape with its tail hanging down. It may also be referred to a Talmudic root which would signify an 'aperture' of some kind, as the 'eye of a needle,' ... Lenormant adopts the more usual explanation that the word means a 'knot' ...
... The king, wearing now a short, stiff archaic mantle, walks in a grave and stately manner to the sanctuary of the wolf-god Upwaut, the 'Opener of the Way', where he anoints the sacred standard and, preceded by this, marches to the palace chapel, into which he disappears. A period of time elapses during which the pharaoh is no longer manifest.
When he reappears he is clothed as in the Narmer palette, wearing the kilt with Hathor belt and bull's tail attatched. In his right hand he holds the flail scepter and in his left, instead of the usual crook of the Good Shepherd, an object resembling a small scroll, called the Will, the House Document, or Secret of the Two Partners, which he exhibits in triumph, proclaiming to all in attendance that it was given him by his dead father Osiris, in the presence of the earth-god Geb. 'I have run', he cries, 'holding the Secret of the Two Partners, the Will that my father has given me before Geb. I have passed through the land and touched the four sides of it. I traverse it as I desire.' ... |
When the
pharaoh
was
invisible
this
could be
visualized
as an
absence
of Head
and in
the Arab
drawing
above
the crab
has no
head.
The
maitaki
type of
glyph
has 'phi
in
triplicate',
indicating
not a
pair of
opposed
'shells'
but a
beautifully
balanced
division
with 3
seasons
(tau)
at left
and 3 at
right:

The Malay word for 'year' is taun or tahun. In all Polynesian dialects the primary sense is 'a season', 'a period of time'. In the Samoan group tau or tausanga, besides the primary sense of season, has the definite meaning of 'a period of six months', and conventionally that of 'a year', as on the island of Tonga. Here the word has the further sense of 'the produce of the year', and derivatively 'a year'. In the Society group it simply means 'season'. In the Hawaiian group, when not applied to the summer season, the word keeps its original sense of 'an indefinite period of time', 'a life-time, an age', and is never applied to the year: its duration may be more or less than a year, according to circumstances. So far our authority (Fornander, I, 124; cp. 119). It seems however to be questionable whether the original sense is not the concrete 'produce of the seasons', rather than the abstract 'period of time'. It is significant that on the Society Islands the bread-fruit season is called te tau, and the names of the other two seasons, te tau miti rahi and te tau poai, are formed by adding to this name.

'Six
stones'
(Tau-ono)
was the
name for
the
Pleiades
and
Tau-toru
('3
stones')
the
Polynesian
name for
the Belt
Stars in
Orion.
Maybe
therefore,
I
thought,
the
Mayan
picture
below -
with the
Turtle
hanging
beautifully
below a
pair of
Sun
aspects
- could
have the
rectangle
at the
top
('yellow'
/ '20' /
'yellow'
as I
read the
3 items)
not as
the
ecliptic
:(which
currently
goes far
above
the Belt
Stars)
but
instead
at the
celestial
equator:
However,
the
Cancer
Turtle
is not
below
Orion.
And the
ecliptic
currently
goes
above Al
Tarf (β)
and
Acubens
(α):
The
Mayan
Turtle
ought to
have its
head and
tail
defined
by
Acubens
respectively
by Al
Tarf
(The
End).
And the
3 stones
from
where a
new
'Fire'
would be
born
should
be
defined
by the 'Tau-toru'
stars
ε, γ,
and δ
Cancri.
Keeping
this
idea in
mind
will
make it
more
easy to
perceive
a
possible
meaning

I have
reversed
this
magnificent
Mayan
drawing
so time
runs
from
left to
right.
At left
is a
person
with a
water
jar and
at right
is empty
air. The
central
figure
is the
Maize
God -
maize
being
the
major
food
source -
and he
bursts
forth
through
a crack
in the
upper
carapace
- in the
middle
between
the
season
of water
and the
season
of a
high
sky.
The
ancient
Chinese
used the
carapace
of a
turtle
as an
instrument
for
telling
the
future,
cracking
its
shell
with
fire.
First
they
drilled
holes in
it and
then
they
placed
the
shell in
the fire
to see
what
cracks
developed:
...
in
central
Brazil:
the
tortoise
is
so
difficult
to
kill
that
the
peasants
cook
it
alive
among
the
hot
wood
cinders,
with
its
own
shell
acting
as
the
cooking-dish;
the
process
may
last
several
hours,
because
the
poor
beast
takes
so
long
to
die
...
In
ancient
Egypt
one of
the 6
'baskets'
offered
to the
pharaoh
Ramses
II after
his
first 30
(= 6 *
5) years
of rule
had a
handle
(V31 in
Gardiner's
Sign
List),
i.e.
perhaps
a little
aperture
or tail:
It was
also
used for
the
consonant
sound
k.
