Maybe both hua
and toga appear basically in two shapes, one for the sun and
one for the moon:
hua |
toga |
|
|
|
|
sun |
moon |
moon |
sun |
The moon hua
above is distinguished by the fact that there are two 'individuals',
two separate figures (which can be explained by the left one being
the 'mother' and the right one being the 'son'). But no female is
necessary in order to die.
In K the sequence
ending with a 'fire generator' has a toga glyph with a broad
ihe tau, not a whole waning moon crescent but only its top:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ka3-12 |
Ka3-13 |
Ka3-14 |
Ga2-24 (4) |
Ga2-25
(5) |
Ga2-26 (6) |
Possibly
K describes events from the perspective of the moon (nighttime) instead of from
the sun (daytime) perspective.
With my colour chart
I have translated the ordinal numbers into colours. Ka3-14 is at an
important spring station and Mars is the obvious choice. Sun is not
visible in the night, but Mars is.
But we will not here
continue to discuss the different formulas used in K and G. We are still looking at
toga glyphs with empty hands and it is time to focus on those with
Y hands.
|
We may here have stumbled on the
explanation of why the texts of K and G differ so much in their details. The
reason presumably is that K has short glyph lines - they cannot be used for
a 'sun perspective'.
14 is the waxing moon maximum and
26 the waxing sun maximum. The glyph lines in K never go as far as to 26
glyphs:

7 (half 14) and 13 (half 26)
combine naturally to express a quarter, 7 * 13 = 91. There are 13 weeks in a
quarter or there are 7 'sun periods' in a quarter.
In a year there are 28 * 13 = 364
days or 52 weeks.
The coloured balls in our
Christmas trees are the planets, I guess. And when Atan told about
coloured balls around full moon, they should also be the planets:

A plant should represent Venus, it
seems. Although the Tree (Niu) also connects to Jupiter, and - we
have seen - to Mercury.
Mercury has here a black ball
which is explainable because this planet is hard to see.
Jupiter got a red ball, the colour
of life.
Full moon has no coloured ball,
which presumably is in harmony with the idea that when sun is blazing at
full strenght at midsummer, then moon is in her new moon position, at the
receiving end. Therefore full moon should correspond to a dark new year
position. There are no colours in the dark.
Omo means 'to paint', that
is what sun is doing when the planets shine in different colours:
Omo
To suck; omoaga, bulky cloud; ragi omoaga
cumulus; omoomo; to suck repeatedly, to suckle;
omotahi, to win everything at a game (lit: to suck whole):
omotahi-mai-á e au, he has cleaned me out; omotohi, full
(of the moon); ku-omotohiá te mahina, the moon is full.
Vanaga.
Rima omo, infidelity, faithless,
unfaithful. Omoomo, to smack the lips, to suck the breast, to
smoke tobacco, to taste of; hakaomoomo, to suckle, to paint.
Churchill.

I decide to insert a link from
'colours', leading to these two pages:
The probable
explanation of why the texts of K and G differ so much in their details is that K has short glyph lines - they cannot be used for
a 'sun perspective'.
14 is the
number of nights until waxing moon has reached her maximum and
26 apparently is the corresponding waxing sun maximum. The glyph lines in K never go as far as to 26
glyphs:

(half 14) and 13 (half 26) combine naturally to express a quarter, 7
* 13 = 91 days. There are 13 weeks in a quarter but also 7 'sun
periods' in a quarter. In a year there are 28 * 13 = 364 days or 52
weeks.
Therefore, in K time must be measured by using weeks (or rather
fortnights), while in G it is possible to use sun periods. |
The coloured
balls in our Christmas trees represent the planets, I am convinced.
And
when Atan told about coloured balls for the nights around
full moon, these should also be the planets:

Mercury has here a black ball which is explainable because this

Jupiter has got a red ball, the colour of blood and life.
Full
moon has no coloured ball, which is in harmony with the idea that
when sun is blazing at full strenght at midsummer, then moon is in
her invisible new moon position, at the receiving end. Therefore
full moon should correspond to a dark 'invisible' new year
position for the sun.
There
are no colours in the dark and there are no colours when full moon
is shining. The colours appear in between.
Omo means not only to 'suck' but also to 'paint' - that is what
sun is doing when the planets shine in their different colours. |
My pink 14 for Mars is
number 11 in the
Atan list . I suppose he went from white moon forward, not from
Mercury as number 1 and 8:

Atan thinks of the
planetary colours cycling around the cosmic tree at full moon, while my
chart is rather generated from the Venus position as day number 1 of the
calendar for the year. From the beginning of K was then inserted Mercury and
Jupiter.
The location of the sequence
white, pink, black, and red can be discussed, but their sequence not. Moon
must come first, then Mars, followed by Mercury and Jupiter. They are the 4
pillars.
