In Mamari we have another constellation with hônu and 'Janus':
Ca5-17 Ca5-18 Ca5-19
Ca8-27 Ca8-28 Ca8-29
In the year there are two solstices, and here we also have two viri-times. In the world of magic structures must be similar.
 
Here 'Janus' is not eating (growing) and perhaps we see the full moon. The 'wings' of hônu are hanging down, like the forms of waxing and waning moon. This hônu is not the sun animal but the moon animal! The 'formula' (the structure of rongorongo texts) has variables (not constants) and now the hônu-variable has another 'value' than in the sun calendars.
 
At summer solstice and at full moon light is at its maximum. At winter solstice and new moon at its minimum. The 'central pillar' is also a variable.
 
During the 24 hours of the day we have noon and midnight as corresponding points on the circle, the also belong to the variable 'central pillar'. Will we find 'Janus' and hônu in some calendar for the day?
