Recurrence — how often עירשמש reads

◆ 217 years between the rare alignments that make עירשמש legible — the significant stellar reading, recurring over years→centuries with no fixed cadence. It also reads on ordinary days (21 of 365 days · gap 1–201 d · ~every 17 d).

Required sign(s) / simple(s)	Capricorn / Virgo · ע י · mother ש מ
Rare alignments read at	66 of 12505 (maxInSign 5/6/7, across 22,000 yr)
Years	19991 BCE · 19457 BCE · 19199 BCE · 18718 BCE · 18318 BCE · 18106 BCE · 17987 BCE · 17898 BCE … 1332 CE · 1518 CE · 1536 CE · 1549 CE (66 total)
Gap between alignments	11–1589 yr · median 217 yr
Nearest to 8 Aug 2026	1549 CE (477 yr ago) · next none recorded
Ordinary-day cadence	21 of 365 days · gap 1–201 d · ~every 17 d

The alignment gap is the rare, significant reading — the stellar-recurrence "frequency constant": a one-simple word reads at most alignments (short gap, e.g. every few years); a multi-simple word reads only when all its signs coincide (long gap). The ordinary-day cadence is the noise floor every word also sits on (when any planet transits its sign). Planet periods are stable, so the everyday cadence is the same in any year.
