190. Sometimes the Morning Star was referring to a fixed star and sometimes to the planet Venus.

Certainly Venus did not rise together with the Sun at all times:

Remarkably the Mayas used the synodic month of the Moon in order to measure the number of nights when Venus was visible as Morning Star.

And only the 8 dark nights before the return of Venus as Morning Star was a true representation of reality.

Can we use Cartes du Ciel in order to find out where Venus would be located in the time-space region we have mapped out for the planet Mars?

To repeat: In the night of August 23 AD 2023 the planet Mars had been visible below the pair of stars 93 Leonis (the tuft at the tip of the tail of Leo) and Denebola (β Leonis), viz. at Alaraph (Un-armed, β Virginis). The yellow marked planet not far behind is Mercury:

At the same time Venus had been visible between Acubens (α Cancri) and ζ Hydrae.

... In the present context 'mouth' has an additional connotation, given that it refers in part to Heart of Earth, the deity called 'Mundo' today. This is the great Mesoamerican earth deity, the ultimate swallower of all living beings, depicted in Classic Mayan art (in the Palenque relief panels, for example) as an enormous pair of jaws upon whose lips even the feet of great lords must rest in precarious balance, and into whose throat even great lords must fall. Turning to the contemporary scene, daykeepers who visit the main cave beneath the ruins of Rotten Cane, the last Quiché capital, speak of the danger of falling into 'the open mouth of the Mundo' there, which is said to be more than four yards wide ...
