letters and numbers of senary numerology

 

The seventh page compares the cycle Tzolkin in ancient calendar of Maya with letters of the modern Russian alphabet, and compares to hierarchy of gods in Vedic mythology. And also shows the systematic order of consonants of the Russian alphabet within the circular matrix of numbers of senary numerology.

Russian alphabet and cycle Tzolkin in calendar of Maya.
Gods of Vedic mythology and Mesoamerican civilization.
Letters and numbers of senary numerology.

Letters of the modern Russian alphabet can be correlated not only to 28-day cycles of the moon but also can be correlated to the 20-day and 13-day periods of the cycle Tzolkin in ancient calendar of Maya as in the Russian alphabet there are 20 consonants and also there are 10+1+2=13 vowels if letters (brief sound) (firm mark) (soft mark) to consider among vowel letters that is justified as in essence the firm and soft marks and brief sound are unpronounceable variants of the vowel sound .
Twenty consonants are comparable to the circular matrix which is shown on schemes:

circular matrix of 20 consonants in the Russian alphabet Russian letters and the order in numerology of the Phoenician alphabet

The circular matrix of 20 consonants of the Russian alphabet has four circles and five numerical axes, namely is a matrix of numbers of senary (six-sign) numerology and senary scale of notation.
It is necessary to tell that Indians of Maya used quinary scale of notation, namely four numbers have been designated by points and the fifth number has been designated by line, but five numbers are designated by ciphers from 1 up to 5 and 0 is required for a designation of the sixth number in the senary scale of notation. As well as nine numbers are applied in decimal scale of notation and 0 is required for record of the tenth number. Therefore the shown matrix has five numerical axes but is a matrix of numbers of senary scale of notation.
Russian letters and serial numbers of letters are shown by dark font, and the red font writes names of some corresponding letters of the Phoenician alphabet.
The order of Russian letters corresponds to sequence in the alphabet in the left scheme, and letters have the systematic order according to which form figures symmetric concerning the first numerical axis in the right scheme:
- letters are conformable and form a symmetric figure;
- letters are conformable and form a symmetric figure;
- letters and form a symmetric figure;
- letters and form a symmetric figure.
Letters are noted by yellow color and have other positions rather than in the alphabet that is necessary for a symmetric arrangement, and also is justified by concurrences to Phoenician letters:
- letter according to other position coincides with the Phoenician letter waw and takes the fifth position of the circular matrix and as a result letters form a symmetric figure;
- letter according to other position coincides with the Phoenician letter tav and takes the fifteenth position and as a result letter on the fourteenth position forms a symmetric figure with letters ;
- letter according to other position coincides with the Phoenician letter qof and takes the twelfth position in the circular matrix, and according to alphabetic sequence can to coincide with the Phoenician letter kaph and to take the seventh position, but position of the letter on the seventh position breaks symmetry;
- letter according to alphabetic sequence can to coincide with the Phoenician letter resh and to take the twelfth position, but for a symmetric arrangement takes the seventh position and coincides with the Phoenician letter thet which is on one numerical axis with the letter resh if to consider the duodecimal circular matrix of Phoenician letters which look on the first page in this website section.
The shown systematic order of consonants of the Russian alphabet is necessary for comparison with the cycle Tzolkin in ancient calendar of Maya. And also the systematic sequence of vowel letters of the Russian alphabet which is necessary for comparison with ancient calendar of Maya, that is shown on the scheme:

symmetric sequence of vowel letters in the Russian alphabet Serial numbers of letters correspond to sequence in the alphabet, but letters have other positions rather than in the alphabet that is necessary for symmetry of letters. Namely if letter takes the eleventh position then is symmetric to the letter , and if letter takes the twelfth position then is symmetric to the letter .
The additional information on symmetry of vowel letters of the Russian alphabet look on pages of this website in other section which has the name metalinguistics.

The word Tzolkin or Tzolk'in means "sacred calculation of days". Days have names "kin", and the 20-day periods have names "uinal". The general number of days during the cycle is 20x13=260, namely the cycle Tzolkin consists of 13 uinals. Hence, days or kins correspond with consonant letters, and 20-day periods or uinals correspond with vowel letters of the Russian alphabet. And also there are 13-day weeks having names "tonal" in which days or kins correspond with vowel letters, and tonals correspond with consonants as the cycle Tzolkin includes 260/13=20 tonals that is shown in the table:

table of the cycle Tzolkin in calendar of Maya and letters of the Russian alphabet

Verticals of the table correspond to the periods uinals and correspond with vowel letters of the Russian alphabet, and horizontals of the table correspond to the days kins and correspond with consonant letters. Red, white, dark, yellow colors designate 13-day weeks tonals which 20 times alternate and correspond with consonant letters, and kins during every tonal correspond with vowel letters. In total every kin during the cycle Tzolkin corresponds with the letter of kin and with the letter of uinal, and also corresponds with the letter of tonal and with the letter of day within a tonal. For example, the seventh kin of the fifth uinal corresponds with letters and also is the ninth day of the seventh tonal that corresponds with letters , and in the sum corresponds with letters . Or the third kin of the third uinal corresponds with letters and also is the fourth day of the fourth tonal that corresponds with letters , and in the sum corresponds with letters .
It is possible to write dates of the modern Gregorian calendar in cells of the table, namely it is possible to coordinate calendar of Maya with the Gregorian calendar that allows to correlate concrete days to letters.
There are different variants according to which the cycle Tzolkin is compared with the Gregorian calendar and consequently I cannot specify as correct any one of these variants, but according to one of variants the present cycle Tzolkin proceeds from December, 25th, till September, 10th, 2009, and following will proceed from September, 11th, till May, 28th, 2010.
The number of days in the cycle Tzolkin can not be coordinated with the solar annual cycle in which 365 days, and consequently the mathematical and metaphysical sense of the cycle Tzolkin is unknown. Though there are assumptions of interrelation with the cycle of rotation of the planet Mars around the sun that makes 780 days and can be coordinated with 260 days of the cycle Tzolkin as 780/3=260, but nevertheless the valid sense is unknown. If to consider comparison of kins and uinals with vowels and consonants of the Russian alphabet, and to consider comparison of Russian letters with hierarchy of gods in Vedic mythology then there is an obvious interrelation of ancient Vedic or Indo-European civilization with civilization of Maya or Mesoamerican civilization. Then the mathematical and metaphysical sense of the cycle Tzolkin becomes clear as 20 kins and 13 uinals are possible to compare with letters of the Russian alphabet, and are possible to compare with names of Vedic gods which are known in Vedas.
