Beyond the silent
bird in day 273 according to C, and at the time of Al
Sharatain, was 'October 1, whereas the face of the Full Moon
was at 'April 1 (100). October is an autumn month north of the
equator, but south of the equator it was a spring month.
But first rose in
withershins order Asellus Tertius, Ascellus Secundus, and
Ascellus Primus (κ, ι, respectively
θ Bootis), at his uplifted left hand, which once held a sickle:

Palm tree, coconut tree; hua

Coconut, palm, spinning top. P
Pau., Ta.: niu,
coconut. Mgv.: niu,
a top; niu mea,
coconut. Mq.: niu,
coconut, a top. Churchill.
The fruit of
miro. Buck.
T. 1. Coconut palm. 2. Sign for
peace. Henry
The sense of top lies in the fact
that the bud end of a coconut shell is used for
spinning, both in the sport of children and as a
means of applying to island life the practical side
of the doctrine of chances. Thus it may be that in
New Zealand, in latitudes higher than are grateful
to the coconut, the divination sense has persisted
even to different implements whereby the arbitrament
of fate may be declared. Churchill 2. |
In
the Babylonian zodiac this was the place of the Mad Dog
who held the time division line in his left hand. Not far
from Toliman (α Centauri, the
star closest to our own Sun) was Yang Mun (South Gate, α in
the Wolf constellation):
... Mad Dog
(Lupus)
The Mad Dog is probably a relic of an ancient star
configuration which included the now derelict Bison-man.
Together they constituted a version of the 'Lion-bull'
conflict, which is widely thought to symbolise the seasonal
conflict between summer and autumn. Here the bull, who
represents the autumn rains slays the lion of summer.
The
Sign of Saturn was on this line too.
