The Cameron Files Hints
How do I solve the zodiac wheel puzzle?
1 of 22: See which parts of the wheel you can interact with.
2 of 22: Does anything seem familiar?
3 of 22: You will need to turn the outer wheel to the correct one of the four possibilities.
4 of 22: The four names represent the four seasons.
5 of 22: Which season is it currently?
6 of 22: According to what the Banshee said the day before, this day is "Alban-Arthuan" -- the winter solstice.
7 of 22: Notice the light shining down from the ceiling.
8 of 22: It is not coincidental that it is shining on the outer wheel.
9 of 22: You will need to revolve the wheel until the correct segment is in the light.
10 of 22: Notice that the outside ring has the words "Alban-Arthuan" on the edge, and the letter "N" on top.
11 of 22: To make sure that "Alban-Arthuan" is in the correct position, place the letter "N" under the light.
12 of 22: You must also turn the inner ring until the correct zodiac symbol is in line with the "Alban-Arthuan" marker.
13 of 22: The zodiac symbol you are looking for can be found in MacGrab's notebook.
14 of 22: The last page shows a zodiac sign associated with Alban-Arthuan - winter solstice.
15 of 22: It is Capricorn.
16 of 22: On the wheel, Capricorn is between Aquarius (which is a set of wavy lines, like water), and Sagittarius (an arrow).
17 of 22: You will need to revolve the inner ring until it is on the far side, by the "Alban-Arthuan" marker.
18 of 22: The point over the "N" should point to the line dividing Capricorn and Sagittarius.
19 of 22: When you have correctly aligned the two rings, you should hear a slightly different sound.
20 of 22: Look around you.
21 of 22: Especially the rock with the triskel design on it.
22 of 22: You should discover that you may pass through to a passage concealed by the rock.
