Beyond 'August 15 (227) a new season
ought to begin. *MAY 28 (148) = September 12 (255) -
107 = May 28 (148) + 107.
Furthermore, 175 heliacal days counted
from 0h (at September 12) corresponded to 148 such days
at 'August 16. 148 + 27 = 175. The reason is that the
precessional difference 107 days for Wezen equals 27
days precessional days for Sheratan + 80 days for the
day number at 0h.

Possibly the high sky represented
by the front high part of Leo (Hanan) was
described in Ga5-7 as hurrying away, with the
back watery part of Leo (Hurin) receiving
the much needed sweet water (vai)
necessary for creating off-spring (hua).

North of the equator the 2nd Spout (Al
Fargh al Thāni) meant the end
of the previous year, with the Square of Pegasus totally
under water and Andromeda chained to the rock so she had
to be quite still. South of the equator the
corresponding season had the Square of Pegasus visible
close to the Full Moon while the Sun was at the completely
dried out Raven.
Therefore the glyphs were probably here
describing the situation north of the equator. The
Chorti diviners had gone to their sacred spring
among stones (vaipuna)
in 'February 9 because they could observe close to the
Full Moon the line from Zosma (δ
Leonis) to Coxa (θ Leonis).

... On
February 9 the Chorti Ah K'in, 'diviners',
begin the agricultural year. Both the 260-day cycle
and the solar year are used in setting dates for
religious and agricultural ceremonies, especially
when those rituals fall at the same time in both
calendars. The ceremony begins when the diviners go
to a sacred spring where they choose five stones
with the proper shape and color. These stones will
mark the five positions of the sacred cosmogram
created by the ritual. When the stones are brought
back to the ceremonial house, two diviners start the
ritual by placing the stones on a table in a careful
pattern that reproduces the schematic of the
universe. At the same time, helpers under the table
replace last year's diagram with the new one. They
believe that by placing the cosmic diagram under the
base of God at the center of the world they
demonstrate that God dominates the universe.
The
priests place the stones in a very particular order.
First the stone that corresponds to the sun in the
eastern, sunrise position of summer solstice is set
down; then the stone corresponding to the western,
sunset position of the same solstice. This is
followed by stones representing the western, sunset
position of the winter solstice, then its eastern,
sunrise position. Together these four stones form a
square. They sit at the four corners of the square
just as we saw in the Creation story from the
Classic period and in the Popol Vuh. Finally, the
center stone is placed to form the ancient
five-point sign modern researchers called the
quincunx
...
South of the equator, on Easter
Island and according to their way of writing,
everything had to be 'upside down'. Therefore I
suggest the quincunx was drawn not with 4 stones as
inside corners but with 4 crescents as outside
corners. And there could not be a central crescent because there should not be anything
visible inside the outline of a glyph - where light
could not reach.
