Could another reason for the 8 WAKAS per CEQUE line, be about honoring the original, 8 PROGENITORS along each line
for the 328 days over luni-solar moon-days of earth-based SPACETIME?
Therefore, the NINTH WAKA is at CUZCO/NAVEL and that was the NINTH INTI (generational son of the SUN) PACHACUTI who transformed the pre-existing, khipu-ceque system according to the Spanish chroniclers.
Since the red feminine, lunar-earthly, subterranean amount inside becomes greater, and then quickly, much greater than the yellow-green-blue PachaMamasurface...(Earth Mother of SpaceTime),
we see how the Solar eclipse is caused by the
Lunar position of Qolla/Quilla (moon) coming in front of the Kapaq/Inti (sun).
What appears to be a male, mysoginist power system, is made to recognize the overpowering feminine creation, umbilical center beneath and all around, and over head, in the three realms of Hanakpacha, Kaypacha and Ukhupacha.
Can we also interpret this knotted "string theory"as a model of the Big Bang Standard Model of Cosmology where the expanding Universe grew from a high energy, small volume, quark-electron, "cube-like" nano-nano-volume... and the Four (5?)Forces
that interact(ed) with Matter-Energy-Space-Time...from pre-quarks to nucleons to stars, proto-galaxies and galaxies and galactic clusters and superclusters until
...now, over the Expanding Exasecond [10^18 seconds...] just like the
10^18 ions in a 10^6 x 10^6 x 10^6 barely visible, cubic grain of table salt of alternating sodium(+) and chloride(-) ions as crystallized from oceans, tears, blood and sweat of this interdisciplinary, intergenerational, interdimensional, holistic, fractally-connected AND string-like theory of cosmic connections?
