The 'walking sky' makes me remember a myth from North America, where the tribe had moved far away from their original home and the appearance of the sky therefore had changed. In think I read it somewhere in Makemson, but cannot find it for the moment.

We should look at the stars in the night sky of October 22. Here we will find Alrisha (the Knot) at FEBRUARY 14 (2-14) - All Hearts' Day. And day 231 (= 295 - 64) is located 186 (→ 366 - 180) days later.

... The Hawaiian woman who was interviewed chuckled because the assassination of Captain Cook coincided with the day we have named All Hearts' Day - when in February 14 (2-14) the war-god Kuu returned to power ...
