3-2. The culmination of Ras Algethi at 21h in the night of July 23 (→ 22 / 7 + 1) surely ought to have indicated this was the place where Hercules was 'turned upside down', 'castrated' ('cat-asterized'):

After the death of the king there surely ought to be a swarm of spiritual flies (bees, horse-flies, takaure), exhaled from his corpse.

... Men's spirits were thought to dwell in the Milky Way between incarnations. This conception has been handed down as an Orphic and Pythagorean tradition fitting into the frame of the migration of the soul. Macrobius, who has provided the broadest report on the matter, has it that souls ascend by way of Capricorn, and then, in order to be reborn, descend again through the 'Gate of Cancer'. Macrobius talks of signs; the constellations rising at the solstices in his time (and still in ours) were Gemini and Sagittarius: the 'Gate of Cancer' means Gemini ...

 ... Night came, midnight came, and Tuu Maheke said to his brother, the last-born: 'You go and sleep. It is up to me to watch over the father.' (He said) the same to the second, the third, and the last. When all had left, when all the brothers were asleep, Tuu Maheke came and cut off the head of Hotu A Matua. Then he covered everything with soil. He hid (the head), took it, and went up. When he was inland, he put (the head) down at Te Avaava Maea. Another day dawned, and the men saw a dense swarm of flies pour forth and spread out like a whirlwind (ure tiatia moana) until it disappeared into the sky. Tuu Maheke understood. He went up and took the head, which was already stinking in the hole in which it had been hidden. He took it and washed it with fresh water. When it was clean, he took it and hid it anew. Another day came, and again Tuu Maheke came and saw that it was completely dried out (pakapaka). He took it, went away, and washed it with fresh water until (the head) was completely clean. Then he took it and painted it yellow (he pua hai pua renga) and wound a strip of barkcloth (nua) around it. He took it and hid it in the hole of a stone that was exactly the size of the head. He put it there, closed up the stone (from the outside), and left it there. There it stayed ... the 23rd Chinese station Ghost ...

... From a religious point of view, the high regard for flies, whose increase or reduction causes a similar increase or reduction in the size of the human population, is interesting, even more so because swarms of flies are often a real nuisance on Easter Island, something most visitors have commented on in vivid language. The explanation seems to be that there is a parallel relationship between flies and human souls, in this case, the souls of the unborn. There is a widespread belief throughout Polynesia that insects are the embodiment of numinous beings, such as gods or the spirits of the dead, and this concept extends into Southeast Asia, where insects are seen as the embodiment of the soul ...

... Then King Matua said to Hotu, 'You must not forget [he mee o rehu] the flies [te takaure] when you take along (all the things that are necessary) and sail off. If you forget the flies [ana rehu i a koe te takaure], the multitude (piere) of the people will disappear [he ngaro]. When you reach the land [ana tomo ki runga.ki tou kainga] to which you are travelling [ena koe ka oho], it will be over quickly (?) for the multitude of the people. When the flies die [ana moko te ihu o te takaure], the human population dies too [he moko tokoa te ihu o tou piere tangata].' [E:57]

Moving with the Sun towards the right along the southern shoreline of Easter Island the dream soul eventually reached the Bay of Flies,  Hanga-Takaure [E:8], and from there she began to move up onto the peninsula named Aloft, Poike:
