This was just about to go live when a new idea involving the Sun cropped up, now added to the original. The source data is from NASA JPL as usual.
From our 2015 de Vries post we saw that the 2503 year period, which the numbers were based on, consisted of 85 Saturn and 211 Jupiter orbits [see chart on the right].
Taking Saturn’s orbit period, and using JPL’s planetary data we find:
10755.7 days * 85 = 914234.5 days
The lunar year is 13 lunar orbits of Earth:
27.321582 days * 13 = 355.18056 days
914234.5 / 355.18056 = 2573.9992 (2574) = 13 * 198 lunar years
Number of beats of Saturn and the lunar year = 2574 – 85 = 2489 in 2503 years.
2503 – 2489 = 14
Number of Jose cycles in 2503 years = 14 (= 126 Jupiter-Saturn conjunctions, i.e. 9 J-S * 14).
Therefore the difference per Jose cycle between ‘Saturn-lunar year’ beats and Earth years is exactly one.
This can be confirmed by referring to the Saturn-Earth conjunctions in the same post.
In 2503 years there are 2418 S-E, so:
2503 – 2418 = 85 Saturn orbits
2489 – 2418 = 71
2503 – 2489 = 14
71 + 14 = 85
Repeating the exercise, for Jupiter:
Number of beats of Jupiter and the lunar year = 2574 – 211 = 2363 in 2503 years.
2503 – 2363 = 140
Ratio of 140:14 = 10:1 (J:S)
Therefore the difference per Jose cycle between ‘Jupiter-lunar year’ beats and Earth years is exactly ten.
Cross-check: 140 J beats – 14 S beats = 126 = number of J-S conjunctions in the period.

That was going to be the end of the post, but then something else turned up…
Bring on the Sun
Richard Christopher Carrington determined the solar rotation rate from low latitude sunspots in the 1850s and arrived at 25.38 days for the sidereal rotation period. – Wikipedia
The lunar year was 13 lunar orbits (or rotations) = 355.18056 days.
An equivalent solar year is 14 * 25.38 days = 355.32 days.
As shown above, the number of lunar years in the 2503 sidereal year cycle of Jupiter and Saturn is 2574.
The number of solar years in the same period is 2573.
The difference of 1 in effect defines the cycle.
Rotations: 2573 * 14 solar = 2574 * 13 lunar. the being:
Difference: 36022 solar – 33462 lunar = 2560.
2574 – 2560 = 14 = the number of Jose cycles in the period.
So we propose that these figures offer links between the Sun, Moon, Earth, Jupiter and Saturn in terms of known repeating time periods. Something for theorists to consider perhaps.
