LUNAR SOLAR CALENDAR (Update)
DAYS OF WEEK/STRONG
I have decided to keep the days of the week as they are, however to rename it strong or set (setdays setend), since it is the oldest unbroken cycle of continuous counting we have going back to ancient history no one is quite sure about where or how it started.
The counting from Sunday to Saturday as dsys of one week is carried forth by Jewish tradition which starts the week with Saturday and ends it with Sunday with each day divided into 24 hours with every hour identified by one of the seven planets, the Elohim, following a particular order, the first hour of the first day of the week is attributed to ... you guessed it, Saturn, then the second hour to Jupiter, third to Mars, fourth to Sun, fifth to Venus, sixth to Mercury, seventh hour is Moon, and the eighth is Saturn again. It then continies like this hour by hour cycles throughout the seven days before it is aligned once again with Saturday as the first hour of the first day.
I simply started my set counting from Sunday thus the strong ends with Saturday as the seventh day not Monday as the tradition has it. I think it is a matter of preference, albeit the planetary order is still a mystery: Sunday, Friday, Wednesday, Monday, Saturday, Thursday, Tuesday, and Sunday again etc. It is through the hourly rotation of this specific order of planetary markers of seven days cycle that gives us the familiar order of the weekdays/setdays: Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday as the days of the first hour of the seven days 24 hours cycle.
LUNAR PHASES
I want to do another chart, and a physical prototype eventually, to include another ring denoting lunar phases, the synodic cycle, that can be rotated to align it with the calendar and add seven rings of 24 hour strong days to map the whole set for easy reference. Also to include four zodiac quarters of earth (Aries, Taurus, Gemini), water (Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn), air (Sagittarius, Scorpio/Eagle, Libra), fire (Virgo/Bakery, Leo, Cancer) with each period containing three signs. The single elemental symbols indicate the quarter with double elemental combo per zodiac sign.
"The synodic month (Greek: συνοδικός, romanized: synodikós, meaning "pertaining to a synod, i.e., a meeting"; in this case, of the Sun and the Moon), also lunation, is the average period of the Moon's orbit with respect to the line joining the Sun and Earth: 29 (Earth) days, 12 hours, 44 minutes and 2.9 seconds. This is the period of the lunar phases, because the Moon's appearance depends on the position of the Moon with respect to the Sun as seen from Earth."
NATURE OF TIME
Anyway, just playing with the chronological time, Chronos as god of time who is merged with Kronos god of harvests, which makes sense as it takes some time and good weather. However little is said about his twin brother, or perhaps his hidden side, in Greek mythology known as Kairos, the inner time, the moment of perfect timing which has nothing to do with external markers but with internal clock, traditionally described as the time when someone decides to release an arrow for example or go whatever else outside the external chronological time.
Then too there is a perception of time. The less there is change the faster the time. When one is having fun, for example, time flies. However, when one is in bad situation, time slows to a crawl, moving painfully slow because it has to accommodate all the changes being percieved and processed. Then also how one sees oneself in the ocean of time can have a great impact. One can think that when one was born then is the youngest version of themselves who then grows progressively older in years of time, or one can see oneself to have been born into here and now, and as time passes one is still here and now where one's youngest self is, with the older self growing older back in time from now to when one was born, thus at fifty years of age one can see oneself being just born into here and now in Consciousness, the body changes in seven year cycles, every organ has it's own regeneration cycle, with the oldest memory of self back when one was born and not drugging the whole thing into here and now, which is where the brain is, biblical archetype as Abel), while the memory is held in one's mind (Cain). Hence Cain killing Abel as sons of Adam (body) and Eve (life) is a metaphor, well it can be interpreted as such, for the later developed mind is overtaking the attention of the brain focused in the here and now into there and then realm of the foggy past or uncertain future expectations and fears.
The lesson, moral, of the story is to stay focused in the now and do not kill your brain nor mind but have the two brothers work together as a team and loving family, without one dominating over the other. Anyway, it is what it is, whatever will be will be, che Sarah, only time will tell and heal all ill. Be well. Peace
