The 'beginning of glyph line Qb7':
15 days from Ga7-18 (188) up to and including Ga7-32 (202) could describe, it seems, the end of spring. 18 * 8 = 144 = 12 * 12. A unit of 3 rhombs at bottom tells about the past, then comes another rhomb at the top. 144 / 3 = 48, and 188 + 48 = 236. Although spring may end with day 192, another 44 days are then added:
In Ga4-20 the same type of glyph has an 'eye' in front of each of these two units, and 4 * 20 = 80 will be 184 if added to 104:
Disregarding winter solstice, summer solstice according to the calendar is arriving in henua period number 32. The first half of the calendar year of 368 days is ending with Ga7-14. Ga7-15--17 are outside, and more connected with the following 'end of spring' glyphs. Their number will then be 3 + 15 = 18. At Ga4-20 the glyph number 104 can be read as 4 * 26:
But the glyph has 4 rhombs which can be read as 4 * 66 = 264. In Ga7-32 (where 7 * 32 = 224 = 8 * 28) there are 7 feathers at left and 6 at right. 7 * 30 = 210 (as in Ga7-30) and 6 * 30 = 180, which could be a year with 13 * 30 = 390 days:
In Ga7-23 haś has 16 feathers, maybe meaning that 16 * 12 = 192 days are in the past. Feathers on both sides should be read as 'occulted':
In Ga7-25 the first Rogo glyph has at left 6 + 6 = 12 feathers, and maybe each such feather means 15 days. Twice 195 = 390, which agrees with 13 30- feathers in Ga7-32. Ika hiku in Ga7-27 has 4 + 3 bent feathers, maybe meaning 'weak'. 7 days in a week times 27 = 189, could refer to Ga7-19:
7-19 is a jumbled 197. If we think of ika hiku (the shark egg case) as similar to rau hei, then the rising shark 197 days later is understandable:
Day 197 in Q is also telling about a rising shark:
