According to Hevelius the star
Albali is in the cloth in the left hand of Aquarius:
Sadalsud (β)
is at his left shoulder and Sadalmelik (α) at his right shoulder.
Sadachbia (γ) follows on his right arm, and then π is on his right
thumb.
The flow from his Urn is
beginning with κ and goes down to λ, φ, χ, ψ, and ω.

The distance from Al Baldah (π
Sagittarii) to the first day of the manzil Al Baldaah is
394 - 370 = 24 days.
The nawaa
Ash Shabt seems to be prior to Aquarius. This is rather obvious because the god Balder
was shot by an arrow, which explains why there no longer
is any ruling star for the 19th manzil Al Baldaah:

Questions remain, for instance which star
was 'Saad Al Thabih'? And why was
there no manzil Saad Al Melik?

The last star of Aquarius is
ω, which rose in RA day
359.2 = Gregorian day 359.2 + 80 - 365¼ = 74 (Mars
15 in an ordinary year).
From ε
(Albali) to ω there are 359.2 - 314.8 = 44.4 days.
From ε to η (at the end of his right hand) there are
342.1 - 314.8 = 27.3 days.
The flow from
the Urn is beginning with Situla (κ) which rose only 342.7 -
342.1 = 0.6 days later than η. From Situla to ω
there are 359.2 - 342.7 = 16½ days.
From
Sadachbia (γ, at the right elbow) to ω there are
359.2 - 334.6 = 24.6 days and well enough to have some
later star in Aquarius ruling the manzil
Almuqaddam. Reasonably the structure should have
also the nawaa Hameeman ruled by Aquarius.
