In the Senjecan conculture the number 6 has a mystical meaning. Most
things are categorized in groups of 6. Thus, the 12-house zodiac is
not an alien arrangement. The naming is not yet complete, but I would
like the houses to be named after animals. There will be 6 major
houses and 6 minor houses. The major houses will be named after the
steeds of the 6 loquent peoples (human = horse) and the minor houses
after the animal companions associated with each of the 6 loquent
peoples (human = wolf).
At least that's my plan.
