Let's repeat from the 'coconut tree' at the beginning of May, where there was a 'red opening', and where 'the empty scales' could be seen close to the Full Moon:
Niu
Palm tree, coconut tree; hua niu, coconut.
Vanaga.
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. |
Vaha
Hollow; opening; space between the fingers (vaha
rima); door cracks (vaha papare). Vahavaha, to
fight, to wrangle, to argue with abusive words. Vanaga.

In
Plato's Timaeus, it is explained that
the two bands that form the soul of the
world cross each other like the letter
Χ. Chi or X is often used to abbreviate
the name Christ, as in the holiday
Christmas (Xmas). When fused within a
single typespace with the Greek letter
Rho, it is called the labarum and used
to represent the person of Jesus Christ.
(Wikipedia)
... tau is
the 19th letter of the Greek
alphabet. In the system of Greek
numerals it has a value of 300
... Taw is believed to be
derived from the Egyptian
hieroglyph meaning 'mark' ...
Taw,
Tav or Taf is the
twenty-second and last letter in
many Semitic abjads ... In
gematria Tav represents
the number 400, the largest
single number that can be
represented without using the
Sophit forms ...
'From Aleph
to Taf' describes
something from beginning to end;
the Hebrew equivalent of the
English 'From A to Z' ...
Tav is the
last letter of the Hebrew word
emet, which means truth.
The midrash explains that
emet is made up of the
first, middle, and last letters
of the Hebrew alphabet (Aleph,
Mem, and Tav...).
Sheqer (falsehood), on
the other hand, is made up of
the 19th, 20th, and 21st (and
penultimate) letters.
Thus, truth is
all-encompassing, while
falsehood is narrow and
deceiving. In Jewish mythology
it was the word emet that
was carved into the head of the
Golem which ultimately
gave it life. But when the
letter 'aleph' was erased from
the Golem's forehead,
what was left was 'met' -
dead. And so the Golem
died ... (Wikipedia)

Wikipedia points at the Egyptian gesture with arms held high as a Sign of jubilation, which may have been the origin (via Phoenician he) of epsilon.

"On the Euphrates it may have been Kakkab Mulu-ixi, the Star Man of Fire, possibly symbolizing the god Laterak, the Divine King of the Desert; although that title has been assigned to μ Virginis and δ Librae.
It marked the eastern boundary of the 11th manzil, and in astrology was a mischeif-making star.
It culminated on the 22d of May." (Allen)
