4. The moon seen from the equator is like a boat riding on the horizon. Boats usually are not quite symmetrical, stem and stern having different lengths and heights.   ... The illuminated part of the moon, the crescent, is in ragi glyphs always oriented in 'living' position, i.e. looking like a travelling canoe (with upside open against the sky and bottom closed against the sea). A canoe turned upside down is a 'dead' canoe, not moving. Movement is a sign of life. Death means being still. Waxing moon appears in the west close to the horizon, looking as if riding on the waves. Waning moon is instead to be seen in the east. Moon is 'born' in the west and 'dies' in the east, travelling in the opposite direction compared to the diurnal path of the sun. Waning moon could then be expected to look like a canoe turned upside down. However, waning moon in the east still looks as if riding right side up, because the eastern horizon - which the eye now is using as a reference - is below the moon. The moon canoe is never turned upside down, it is always 'living' ... In the 6th period - well into waning moon - the moon fish at right in Ca8-7 has its head down, but its tail is still living:   Ca8-4 Ca8-5 Ca8-6 Ca8-7 Ca8-8 Ca8-9 Ca8-10

Moon signs sometimes occur as minor elements in glyphs: 1 Ga2-27 Ga2-28 Ga2-29 Ga3-1 Ga3-2 Ga3-3 Ga3-4 Ga3-5 Rei in Ga2-27 has a marama sign at top left, not the usual half moon crescent. Here the marama sign probably indicates that the dark time of the year is receding. Although south of the equator this shape characterizes waxing moon it is absurdely slim, and Rei glyphs cannot have a waning moon sign at this location. Ga2-27 initiates a long series of glyph sequences relating to the spring advancement of the sun. The assymmetric manu kake ('ascending bird') in Ga3-1 illustrates the situation at the beginning of the season for raising the 'sky roof'. At right (forward in time) the wing and beak are longer than at left (past time). Moa in Ga3-3 is crying out - light is coming. Ga2-26, the glyph immediately preceding the 1st period of growing sun light, is a haga glyph - previously in this dictionary called 'fire generator':

The two manu kake glyphs in G:

 

Ga3-1 (60)	Ga4-21 (105)

Manu rere at bottom in Ga3-1 illustrates the birds high in the sky, while a rising fish is seen at bottom in Ga4-21 - as a separate entity. The beak at left in Ga4-21 is bent, a sign of the dark side, which is in the past. While Ga3-1 tells about the coming season, Ga4-21 tells about the past season. Together they measure out 45 days, half a quarter:

 

22
	Ga6-5	Ga6-6	Ga6-7	Ga6-8
23
	Ga6-9 (150)	Ga6-10	Ga6-11

A reversed person at the end of the quarter confirms we have guessed right (regarding half a quarter measured out by the two manu kake).

Let us try to coordinate this quarter year with the kuhane stations:

 

Te Piringa Aniva (29.5)
Ga1-24	Ga1-25	Ga1-26	Ga1-27	Ga1-28	Ga1-29 (30)	Ga1-30	Ga2-1 (32)

Te Kioe Uri (59)
Ga2-23	Ga2-24	Ga2-25	Ga2-26	Ga2-27	Ga2-28 (59)	Ga2-29	Ga3-1 (61)

Te Manavai (88.5)
Ga4-1	Ga4-2	Ga4-3	Ga4-4	Ga4-4	Ga4-5 (89)	Ga4-6	Ga4-7 (91)

Te Poko Uri (118)
Ga5-3	Ga5-4	Ga5-5	Ga5-6	Ga5-7 (118)	Ga5-8	Ga5-9	Ga5-10 (121)

Te Pu Mahore (147.5)
Ga6-2	Ga6-3	Ga6-4	Ga6-5	Ga6-6 (147)	Ga6-7	Ga6-8	Ga6-9 (150)

Nga Kope Ririva (177)
Ga7-3	Ga7-4	Ga7-5	Ga7-6	Ga7-7 (177)	Ga7-8	Ga7-9	Ga7-10 (180)

I have chosen a span of 8 glyphs, with the multiples of 29.5 at position 5. When the multiple is even I have only two redmarked glyphs (which I believe should be read together), when the multiple is odd I have three redmarked glyphs (because then a definite central glyph can be determined).

If we think in spatial terms, as in the sacred geography of Easter Island, it is rather obvious that a kuhane station is a place, not distances. Therefore the glyphs preceding a multiple of 29.5 should be equally valid as the glyphs coming after.

It is apparent that the glyph lines are rather closely connected with the beginning of each 8-glyph sequence above, with Te Piringa Aniva and Te Kioe Uri as special cases (late in the 8-glyph sequences instead of early).

Manu kake in Ga3-1 (61) marks the beginning of an important quarter, the 'climbing bird' (manu kake) season. Its end lies at Ga6-9 (150) in Te Pu Mahore.

Glyph number 180 in Nga Kope Ririva marks half 360, and from there only 50 glyphs remain to the end of side a:

 

I have redmarked some intersting numbers. 111 for the first 4 glyph lines (including Gb8-30) should be compared with 333 in A (but there counted only from Aa1-1):
