3. The 'tearline' sign was used also in the headgear of Pharaoh. It was composed to show how he integrated Upper and Lower Egypt, and in the symbol for Lower Egypt we can see the 'tearline' (here oriented rising):

The central role is taken by the scarab (Sun) rising above his 'door' in the east. At left (= in the north) is the goddess of Lower Egypt and in the south (right) is the goddess of Upper Egypt (appropriately illustrated by a high crown). The crown of Pharaoh had elements from the crowns of both these goddesses.

 

The 'tearline' indicates 'low'. The 'Weeping God' is located low, beyond the high position at the end of his 'front side' (corresponding to Upper Egypt, the high land).

 

When Spring Sun has left, we must search low in order to find his successor.
