Recurrence — how often שפטיה reads

◆ 586 years between the rare alignments that make שפטיה legible — the significant stellar reading, recurring over years→centuries with no fixed cadence. It also reads on ordinary days (104 of 365 days · gap 1–172 d · ~every 4 d).

Required sign(s) / simple(s)	Leo / Virgo / Aries · ט י ה · mother ש
Rare alignments read at	31 of 12505 (maxInSign 5/6/7, across 22,000 yr)
Years	19912 BCE · 18882 BCE · 18485 BCE · 17513 BCE · 16980 BCE · 16913 BCE · 16777 BCE · 16659 BCE … 1553 BCE · 1084 BCE · 142 CE · 1968 CE (31 total)
Gap between alignments	31–2426 yr · median 586 yr
Nearest to 8 Aug 2026	1968 CE (58 yr ago) · next none recorded
Ordinary-day cadence	104 of 365 days · gap 1–172 d · ~every 4 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.
