But I will continue to use the normal Gregorian calendar with May 1 as day 121 etc:

May 1 (121) 161 October 10 (283) 21 November 1 2 (306)
Cb1-15 (407) Cb8-6 (569) Cb8-28 Cb8-29 (592)
e niu tu vero hia ma te tara huki te kahi
Bharani-2 Chitra-14 / Horn-1 / T3 Kochab (225.0) Ke Kwan (226.3), Ke Kwan (226.4)
Right Wing (40.9), π Arietis (41.2),  Bharani (41.4) SPICA, Alcor (202.7)
November 1 (305) 161 April 11 (467è 101) 21 May 3 (123) 4 (490è 124)
Kochab (225.0) no star listed (RA 21) ρ Arietis (43.0) Acamar (43.6), ε Arietis (43.7)

Once again, the beginning of side b was apparently meant to coincide with the stars ruling the first Hindu nakshatra station Ashvini. In October 18 Sheratan and Mesarthim (β and γ Arietis) could be seen close to the Full Moon:

April 17 18 (108) 19 20
Cb1-1 (393) Cb1-2 Cb1-3 Cb1-4
E tupu - ki roto o te hau tea ki te henua - te maro
Al Sharatain-1 / Ashvini-1 / Bond-16 ι Arietis (28.0), λ Arietis (28.2) Alrisha, χ Phoenicis (29.2) 2h (30.4)
Polaris, Baten Kaitos (26.6), Metallah (26.9), Segin, Mesarthim, ψ Phoenicis (27.2), SHERATAN, φ Phoenicis (27.4) Alamak (29.7), κ Arietis (30.3), Hamal (30.5)
October 18 (291) 19 20 21
φ Centauri (211.0), υ¹ Centauri (211.1) υ² Centauri (211.8), τ Virginis (211.9), Agena (212.1), θ Apodis (212.5) 14h (213.1) no star listed
Thuban (212.8), χ Centauri (213.0), Menkent (213.1)

April 17 - 80 = RA day 27. From April 17 to October 18 (RA day 211) there were 291 - 107 = 184 days, implying - according to my ideas - that this distance was not that from a heliacal star to the position of its nakshatra star but the opposite, with e.g. Sheratan as the nakshatra star of φ Centauri (211.0):

April 17 (107) +184 October 18 (291) +181 April 17 (107+365) +184 October 18 (291)
SHERATAN (27) φ Centauri (211) SHERATAN (27+365) φ Centauri (211)

From heliacal φ Centauri (211) in October 18 (291) to its nakshatra star Sheratan (which could be seen close to the Moon in October but which rose with the Sun in April 17) there were 181 days. 291 + 181 = 472 = 16 * 29½ = 107 + 365. But with April 17 as day 108 we should instead count:

April 17 ('108') +184 October 18 ('292') +181 April 17 ('108'+365) +184 October 18 ('292')
SHERATAN (27) φ Centauri (211) SHERATAN (27+365) φ Centauri (211)

Or keeping to the Gregorian calendar including February 29:

April 17 (108) +184 October 18 (292) +181 April 17 (107+365) +184 October 18 (291)
SHERATAN (27) φ Centauri (211) SHERATAN (27+365) φ Centauri (211)

April 17 would then first be day 108 and in the next cycle it would be 108 + 365 = 473 (= 472 + 1 as a Sign for a new beginning). It could not be 108 + 366 because leap years cannot come in pairs.
