Recurrence — how often שמץ reads
◆ 35 years between the rare alignments that make שמץ legible — the significant stellar reading, recurring over years→centuries with no fixed cadence. It also reads on ordinary days (72 of 365 days · gap 1–34 d · ~every 5 d).
| Required sign(s) / simple(s) | Aquarius · צ · mother ש מ |
|---|---|
| Rare alignments read at | 433 of 12505 (maxInSign 5/6/7, across 22,000 yr) |
| Years | 19956 BCE · 19856 BCE · 19779 BCE · 19712 BCE · 19688 BCE · 19661 BCE · 19541 BCE · 19392 BCE … 1973 CE · 1974 CE · 2092 CE · 2152 CE (433 total) |
| Gap between alignments | 0–350 yr · median 35 yr |
| Nearest to 8 Aug 2026 | 1974 CE (52 yr ago) · next 2092 CE (in 66 yr) |
| Ordinary-day cadence | 72 of 365 days · gap 1–34 d · ~every 5 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.
