            The baselines chosen here place the centerline tangenting the upper of four spheres of the bracelet worn by the creature at the left with the ‘hook’ eye. (Art Motifs Fig.142) It then passes through the serpent and the woman’s neck and chin then through the serpent again and two fingers of the right hand of the figure at the right, likely some sort of plane of the ecliptic entity. He touches the coils (rotation) and crosshatching (tilted axis) of the serpent with fingers of his left hand while beckoning the hesitant woman with his right to their approaching rendezvous. This is an encoding of the Vernal Equinox beginning with the figure at the left whose serpent ‘leg’ represents earth’s rotation and axial tilt with its left leg and foot representing earth’s tilted polar axis. The woman possibly represents the feminine or fertile aspect of earth’s tilted polar alignment with the sun and the plane of the ecliptic. The glyph above the woman’s head composed of concentric and off centered circles symbolizes earth’s celestial mechanics, its orbit, rotation, and axial tilt on an equinox. The big black dot off center likely symbolizes the pole star with the two smaller black dots to the right, or to the east on the horizon representing equinox dawn(s). When viewing the aligned images or scrolling watch the slanted ‘T’ at the upper left and just above the woman’s forehead along with her eye and the eye, hands, fingers and foot of the creature at the left and the fingers of the figure at the right as they align with each other and the grid’s 15 degree angled rays tangenting the curved surfaces of the ‘equinox glyph’ circles.
