EXTRACTED METHOD: map_calendar_dates_to_e8_projection — E8 Intelligence Research

rule: Take any ancient calendrical text (e.g., 4QMMT) with festival dates in a 364-day cycle. Convert each date to a day-of-year integer (1-364). Project E8 root vectors onto a 2D Coxeter plane using standard 8D-to-2D projection. For each date, compute the Euclidean distance to each projected root vector. Flag dates that fall within a threshold (e.g., 0.05 normalized distance) of a root vector as 'aligned'. Then check if aligned dates cluster at phi-ratio intervals (e.g., 225, 364, 584 days apart). source: rlab #237 Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK.
