5. When Sun is ruling in the sky above the stars cannot be seen, they can be seen only when he is absent, in the night. A similar pattern should therefore rule the year, such is the consequence of the ideology of correspondences. Sun should be present only during a part of the cycle, surely not in winter.

The 'map' presented in the tresses of Pachamama divides the whole cycle assymmetrically:

total = 400

I guessed its total 400 might have been divided into 216 + 184 on Easter Island. In the G text, however, we have seen the distance from Aldebaran to Antares is 181 days (although the even number 182 would have been to prefer). And it was said that the heliacal rising of Antares was the sign of summer.

This is not how G describes it:
727m / 1440m * 365¼ = 184.4
Ana-mua Ana-muri
'November 25 (329) 36 + 147 = 183 'May 28 (148)
summer announced 184

The front side of the year is according to the G text evidently beginning at spring equinox north of the equator and there Aldebaran arrives not at the end (muri) but at the beginning of summer. Antares is located at the end of summer, not at its beginning (mua). The perspective is what can be seen north of the equator. However, reading the G text on Easter Island Aldebaran (Ana-muri) can be described as located at the back side, rising heliacally earlier than the summer announcer Antares (Ana-mua):

Counting 214 days from Antares, at the beginning of summer, will make us arrive at glyph 400 (Gb6-17).

And, we should remember (see in chapter 378), the synodical cycle of Jupiter is 399 days.

The details are still unknown for us of course, but my main point is that Ana-muri clearly means Aldebaran is at the back side (muri) of the year.

Moreover, we can see the G text is reflecting on its front side the path of Sun north of the equator, during summer up there. And this path is beginning at March 21 and it could be ending after 244 days, at the end of the henua calendar:
