The colours agree, if we for the stations on
the mainland of Easter Island follow the order of our week. But not
if we colour the kuhane stations after their ordinal

South of the equator Saturn 'inhabits'
number 4 - which is quite necessary in order to create the
new fire for number 5 - but north of the equator he
evidently inhabits number 25 (in order to create the fire
for Kane). In a way it makes sense, because when spring
arrives on Easter Island it is the reverse on Hawaii, the
beginning of the season of Sun-is-present on Easter Island
must coincide with the end of Sun-is-present on Hawaii - he
cannot be in both places at the same time.
This can also explain the absent night number
26 in the Hawaiian calendar - the night of Kane is
number 27, not number 26 - number 26 is a day of Sun, but he
is far away south of the equator. That is, the Hawaiian calendar
should primarily
be a calendar for the year, not for the month.
Furthermore, if we count the number of
'nights' from Kane
and forward up to and including Ku-pau (which we have tentatively
identified as the 'night' corresponding to Te Kioe Uri),
they will be 10 or equal to the number of months for Sun:

The first night when the new Moon is visible
is number Hilo, conspiciously the only Sunday among
them.
We can compare with our primary text example
(only to see where it leads, not in order to suggest
anything new):
