From "February 28 to "March 20 (*364) there were 20 days. Tagata in Gb8-9 is the 8th and last of its kind:

92 Equinox

And the following glyph (powerfully drawn, like Gb7-18 and Gb8-7) clearly indicates how "September 22 at the Full Moon was the equinox (the point where the high sky Ç turned into its opposite È). Here 3 feathers were up and 3 feathers were down. 3 * 60 + 3 * 60 = 360.
