It's the bottom of the hill.

So....
No comment on the pendulum?

So, are you talking about a polar oscillation rather than a fixed shift?
Rather like the top of a spinning top as it starts to lose momentum... That should give you a larger northern ice cap.

Turn a beer can upside down and roll a little ball bearing around the rim of the base... it will eventually settle at the bottom of the hollow.

Yes. That's it.
Here's how it works....

The Origin of the Secret Pole of the Ancient World
The globe begins with a rotational axis that is perpendicular to its plane of orbit. The axis is composed of nothing but rotational energy. The matter of the globe spins around it.
Then suddenly that axis of energy twists to 23.5 degrees.
The whole of the globe now tips toward this new rotational axis. The sphere of the Earth slips toward it.
But in doing so, the globe gains momentum. So upon reaching the axis it doesn't stop. It can't stop. It tips right on past. It keeps on tipping beyond the point of fixed rotational energy until the globe has depleted its momentum.
The Earth has now reached the top of the hill so-to-speak, doing so at about a 45 degree angle from perpendicular. That's when it begins to slip back. Slip back down the hill again toward the point of balance -- the point where the water and land of the Earth minimize its oscillation -- with the north pole centered over the axis.
But once again it fails to stop. It has too much momentum. It slips beyond the energy trough again. It keeps on going until once more it nearly stands upright.
Though only for a moment; for immediately it begins to fall once more toward its balance. And still it slips past.
For a thousand years* the Earth oscillates. Back and forth it rolls. Its rotation never around a fixed point. Over and over and over again the north pole sways from one side of the planet to the other, perhaps several times a year.**
Yet each time the oscillation lessens. Like a mighty pendulum swaying to a stop the rhythm remains unchanging while the sway grows ever less extreme.
Then one day.
It stops.

*a figure of speech
**Look at the calendar and you will find there recorded the number of beats per year.

Now we know why our ancestors stopped using henges.
Now we know why the hermetic knowledge died.

hmm....
I'm guessing birds released from ships were key to navigation in the diluvian world.

23.5
Awfully close to 24, don't you say?

Total oscillation is 27 degrees. Given that the earth slows its movement at top and bottom and tips fastest in the middle, what would you say the odds might be that one complete oscillation from top to bottom then back to top again took 4 days?

Then why a seven day week?
And why does God rest on the seventh day?

With a seven day week, one complete cycle takes 4 weeks (the earth ends the week at its start point at the end of the fourth week).

That was the original calendar. Evenly divided into months of 4 weeks. But as the pendulum slowed down the timing fell out -- the rhythm wasn't perfect. Some days were lost. That's why the calendar had to be re-made at the beginning of the historical age.

Errrm... I normally manage to stay tuned in, but all I caught then was a sort of whoosh noise as something flew over my head.
You couldn't run that past us again could you?... Slowly.
You lost me somewhere, a little after 23.5...
