133. According to the evening news the viewers should take the opportunity to watch the sky tonight, because there will be an intense meteor shower. However, according to my local view of the night sky it will presumably instead be covered by heavy clouds resulting in showers of rain.

Today is August 13 (225) AD 2023, and the meteor shower should be originating in the constellation of Perseus.

Immediately I was struck by the date as that for the Creation of our present world. And half a year way - in the nakshatra sky - should then be February 14 (All Hearts' Day).

The Martian retrograde diagram was beginning 10 days later and I became curious as to where Mars had been in August 13 AD 2022. In the night of August 23 AD 2022, we have seen, the planet Mars was at *59:

... In the Golden Age of the Bull - Aldebaran is the name for α Tauri - AUGUST 23 would have been 235 - 54 = 181 days after FEBRUARY 23 (TERMINALIA). And according to Cartes du Ciel the location of Mars in the night of August 23 AD 2022 would indeed be between Aldebaran and the Pleiades, although not precisely where the diagram above is indicating:

... In other words, the ancient Druidic religion based on the oak-cult will be swept away by Christianity and the door - the god Llyr - will languish forgotten in the Castle of Arianrhod, the Corona Borealis. This helps us to understand the relationship at Rome of Janus and the White Goddess Cardea who is ... the Goddess of Hinges who came to Rome from Alba Longa. She was the hinge on which the year swung - the ancient Latin, not the Etruscan year - and her importance as such is recorded in the Latin adjective cardinalis - as we say in English 'of cardinal importance - which was also applied to the four main winds; for winds were considered as under the sole direction of the Great Goddess until Classical times ...

... The correspondence between the winter solstice and the kali'i rite of the Makahiki is arrived at as follows: ideally, the second ceremony of 'breaking the coconut', when the priests assemble at the temple to spot the rising of the Pleiades, coincides with the full moon (Hua tapu) of the twelfth lunar month (Welehu). In the latter eighteenth century, the Pleiades appear at sunset on 18 November. Ten days later (28 November), the Lono effigy sets off on its circuit, which lasts twenty-three days, thus bringing the god back for the climactic battle with the king on 21 December, the solstice (= Hawaiian 16 Makali'i). The correspondence is 'ideal' and only rarely achieved, since it depends on the coincidence of the full moon and the crepuscular rising of the Pleiades ...

There is much remaining to be found out, for instance what is meant by 'Geneve 2022-8-13 3h00m (TU + 1h00m)'.

When the Sun in May 20 (140) reached the line for 4h (at Gb5-8) then Cor Caroli (α Canes Venaticorum, the Hunting Dogs) would culminate (at 21h) at the same time as the nakshatra Full Moon ideally should be at the place for November 18 (322 = 140 + 182), where Schedir (the Breast) would culminate.
