- alignment Earth - Venus - Mars
- reference point: 9.12.10.3.9 (oposition of Mars with the Sun)
1386580 - 1386069 = 511 days ( ~ 2 tzolkin)
9.12.10.3.9 + 154 tzolkin (11*14 tzolkin) = 9.18.1.7.9
(9.12.10.3.0 rastrer E-R: 1386060 mod 780 = 0)

- the meaning of the higher multiples is not clear (periods appear in
the symmetry of the outer planets!?)

Dates 1,2,(4) and 5,(6),8 seems to be congruent according to Y=3120
days
(12 tzolkin).
Difference of date 1 and 2 is 99840 days (273.3 years).
After this period lunar line of nodes points not only to Mars, but
also to Venus. It concerns exact interval of conjunctions V-E-R
(V-E-Ln-R) or (rather) straight line alignment of E-V-R
(E-Ln-V-R).
99840 = 9 *19 *583.85965 days
= 27 *3
tzolkin = 25 *Y
