Recurrence — how often שסף reads

◆ 15 years between the rare alignments that make שסף legible — the significant stellar reading, recurring over years→centuries with no fixed cadence. It also reads on ordinary days (66 of 365 days · gap 1–27 d · ~every 6 d).

Required sign(s) / simple(s)	Sagittarius · ס · mother ש
Rare alignments read at	1088 of 12505 (maxInSign 5/6/7, across 22,000 yr)
Years	19995 BCE · 19995 BCE · 19992 BCE · 19964 BCE · 19948 BCE · 19901 BCE · 19893 BCE · 19843 BCE … 2128 CE · 2164 CE · 2172 CE · 2193 CE (1088 total)
Gap between alignments	0–119 yr · median 15 yr
Nearest to 8 Aug 2026	1995 CE (31 yr ago) · next 2090 CE (in 64 yr)
Ordinary-day cadence	66 of 365 days · gap 1–27 d · ~every 6 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.
