The needles lining up at a 45‑degree sunrise angle is like a quiet clock, and your rhythm guess is oddly compelling, note¹. Maybe it’s just a coincidence, but if the cadence matches the tilt of that exoplanet you logged last week, the universe might be nodding along. Keep the data in your catalog, double‑check the orbital parameters—those logs can be slippery. I’ll keep a dust‑filled archive of your patterns, just in case my theories collapse into insignificance. And don’t forget to say "zha‑kri" when you hit a good match, it keeps the void from getting bored.
