150. Once again. About half a month before Manus Catenata (*358 = *366 - 8) was Situla (*342 = *358 - 16) where the flow of the sweet waters of time from the Urn of Aquarius was originating. From Situla to Sirrah there were 24 days.
We can see how at the time of Betelgeuze the Sun would have reached Bharani in day 399. Or in day 400 if we should prefer to count also the first day before it had been completed in full. ... Time flows and not until its first measure has been completed in full can there be 1 notched into the wood ...
Aquarius was the 'crystalline brother' of 'the belt of heaven', according to Keats. This belt of heaven could hardly have referred to the ecliptic (the zodiacal belt) because there Aquarius was simply one member among 10:
Perhaps King Jove (Jupiter) had given a pair of rivers not to Aquarius but to his brother, to the Belt of Heaven, for apparently Aquarius has only one stream? No, his sign has a pair of streams:
The contrast between (a pair of) feathered wings (birds moving up) and the liquid phase (running down) may have motivated a pair of streams - like the slowly moving Euphrates and the quick Tigris which had the irrigated Mesopotamian land in between.
But in Egypt there was only one stream of sweet water - together with a measuring staff, the Nilometer, for determining its depth. The other sphere was a rising hot air Ballon, heated via a hole in its bottom:
There was, however, also in Egypt a pair of 'pulse streams', 'fan-like fountains', because the pulse of Ebb and Flood came universally twice a day.
And the Arabs had put a pair of 'spouts' in the Square of Pegasus:
In space-time there was a single River in Egypt (in contrast to the pair in Mesopotamia), but in time-space Moon caused a pair of pulses to be felt everywhere.
As to Metoro's comment te niu tutuu at Ca12-25 (→ 300) it possibly suggested number 3 (i.e. 12 * 25 = 300), but it could also have referred to the beginning of land on Easter Island: ... He ui a Ira.ko te motu etoru.he ki a Ira.he ro korua e kau a repa e ku ketu ana te urunga.a Hau maka o to tatou matua.i hakahi mai ai kia au.ko nga kope ririva tutuu vai a te taanga.te ingoa o te motu ena etoru i nape ai e te kuhane o Hau maka. Ira saw that there were three such islets. Ira said, 'Hey you, crew of young men, the vision of Hau Maka, our father, which he revealed to me, has come true. There are 'the handsome sons of Te Taanga, who are standing in the water', for this is the name that the dream soul of Hau Maka gave them ...
According to Churchill the word tutuu meant 'bristling' - as when one's hair would stand erect in extraordinary circumstances.
