Rosettes foldout: cardinal directions?
#53
I'd like to ask your opinion on another reason why I'm starting to think the two suns, T/O-map and "clock thing" are not emblems for the cardinal directions. (For the first reason, see here You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. )

Take a look at You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. . Its overall structure has a lot of similarities with the Rosettes foldout. I just quickly marked it a bit here:

   

The four outer emblems from the rosettes are present as well: two suns, a T/O-drawing and some connected dots. Consider the suns though:

   

If these two suns are sunrise and sunset, then why are there moons in between them? A moon for north would make some sense, but the same item appears on the opposite side. This does not prove anything about the rosettes of course, but it may be an indication that the VM does not see diagonally opposed suns as east and west. Unless south is a moon...
