... In other words, the ancient Druidic religion based on the oak-cult will be swept away by Christianity and the door - the god Llyr - will languish forgotten in the Castle of Arianrhod, the Corona Borealis. This helps us to understand the relationship at Rome of Janus and the White Goddess Cardea who is ... the Goddess of Hinges who came to Rome from Alba Longa. She was the hinge on which the year swung - the ancient Latin, not the Etruscan year - and her importance as such is recorded in the Latin adjective cardinalis - as we say in English 'of cardinal importance - which was also applied to the four main winds; for winds were considered as under the sole direction of the Great Goddess until Classical times ...

Notably the Full Moon would ideally be at the right ascension line of Nusakan (*234.0) in Corona Borealis in the night before Sirrah (*0.5) culminated at 21h. My list of star culminations contains only a selected few of all the stars in my star list, but we can assume the culmination (at 21h) of Caph (*0.5) also occurred in November 11.

The domain of the Winds was the Air → Shu / Shut:

... Hercules first appears in legend as a pastoral sacred king and, perhaps because shepherds welcome the birth of twin lambs, is a twin himself. His characteristics and history can be deduced from a mass of legends, folk-customs and megalithic monuments. He is the rain-maker of his tribe and a sort of human thunder-storm. Legends connect him with Libya and the Atlas Mountains; he may well have originated thereabouts in Palaeolithic times. The priests of Egyptian Thebes, who called him Shu, dated his origin as '17,000 years before the reign of King Amasis'. He carries an oak-club, because the oak provides his beasts and his people with mast and because it attracts lightning more than any other tree. His symbols are the acorn; the rock-dove, which nests in oaks as well as in clefts of rocks; the mistletoe, or Loranthus; and the serpent. All these are sexual emblems. The dove was sacred to the Love-goddess of Greece and Syria; the serpent was the most ancient of phallic totem-beasts; the cupped acorn stood for the glans penis in both Greek and Latin; the mistletoe was an all-heal and its names viscus (Latin) and ixias (Greek) are connected with vis and ischus (strength) - probably because of the spermal viscosity of its berries, sperm being the vehicle of life.

Birds and flies (kuhane) inhabit the Air.

... 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 ...

In Manuscript E number 500 [E:74] was contrasted with 600 [E:54]. Possibly because → 500 + 84 = 584 (synodic cycle of Venus) + 16 (change from waiting to return to visibility to true heliacal dates) = 600:

... During the reign of Matua, the Hanau Eepe came [he ea]. They stole [he toke] one side (etahi painga) of the land of the king of Hanau Momoko and moved [he hakaneke] the border [te tita'a koîa] from their side toward the side of the Hanau Momoko. Five hundred [erima te rau] Hanau Eepe stole the land of the king of the Hanau Momoko. [E:53]

... The king assigned [he vavae] six hundred [eono te rau] men ...The king reproached [he kakai] the Hanau Eepe severely, 'Who sent you out to steal the land?' The Hanau Eepe answered, 'We ourselves did!' [O matou ana.he ki.]

... 'Oh, you, why [mo-te-aha] have you violated [toke] the borders of my [tooku] land?' The Hanau Eepe answered, 'There is not enough land [he kainga kore] to live on!' Thereupon the king called out [he rangi] to the Hanau Eepe, 'Here I stand, and I tell all of you: I am taking [he too au] you prisoners [he puru] and I am locking you up in the house of prisoners (hare kopu) for fifty [50, erima te kauatu] years!' Then the king called out [he rangi] to his men, 'Seize [ka too] all of them, and lock up all of the Hanau Eepe! Lock them up [ka puru] for good!' [E:55]
